From the original uploader:
This is the version with the drums overdubbed by Mitch Mitchell at Electric Lady Studios, N.Y in 1972. It’s unconfirmed but I wander if the bass wasn’t also redubbed (even partly) by Billy Cox at the same period ? This is 2 analog + 1 digital generations away from the original stereo safety masters but the digital transfer was Mini-Disc (that can’t make it 100% ‘true lossless’). I never come across an as good version without MD copy in. When Alan Douglas was in charge of the “vault”, soundboards went in and out…
One of these was the Maui overdubbed stereo safety master that was copied to VHS in the late 70s or early 80s (long before DATs & CDRs !) and then came back to the “vault”, so the 1st generation VHS copy remains the best & most complete soundboard source in circulation.
Note that all cuts on this tape are like on the safety master but it is unknown if these cuts are on the multi-track masters with original drums. The owner give a few copies to selected people, leaving them with a 2nd generation tape source. He still has the 1st gen VHS source apparently, but is currently out of the trading business. This tape has been speed corrected, but no other alterations have been made. A “Stoned” Conversation with Jimi Hendrix, Pat Hartley & Chuck Wein is added as bonus on disc 2.
