JGMF:
! Recording: symbols: % = recording discontinuity; / = clipped song; // = cut song; … = fade in/out; # = truncated timing; [ ] = recorded event time. The recorded event time immediately after the song or item name is an attempt at getting the “real” time of the event. So, a timing of [x:xx] right after a song title is an attempt to say how long the song really was, as represented on this recording.

! R: This is the only piece of this I have. In the olden days, it would have been a sweet little piece of tape filler. Now, it’s just an orphaned track. It’s a Bunch Three Betty tape.
! t01 (1) Geoff Muldaur: “Here’s a simple tune [someone belches] by Bobby Charles.”
! P: t01 @ 0:45 Garcia with beautiful harmony “A place I feel loose, a place I could lose, those Tennessee Blues.”

  1. Thanks for this! Tennessee Blues is a one of my favorite Bobby Charles songs. He also wrote Walking to New Orleans (big hit for Fats Domino) and The Jealous Kind. What a surprise and a treat to hear Jerry and Merle (and Geoff) do this!
