 sbd vernon9110A-in 4-way comparison this is very similar sound to 10355 and this has higher levels; 16752 was harsher and less clear; wgv stream was clearest and warmest and had additional song but there was disagreement on whether it had a less natural sound ***

 sbd hanno16752A- (little pops t1 0:04, 0:05, pop t1 2:24, noise t2 11:44 maybe because of clipping since there is some occasional through out, pops 18:25, abrupt end of t2***

8/5/67O'Keefe Center, Toronto, ON
 sbd vernon9111B+in 4-way comparison this does not have the outro on the others; this is similar sound quality to 16753 but a little warmer and clearer; wgv stream was less full sound but was clearest and more natural; 9111 sounds very similar to 10356 except 9111 has levels raised so it clips some ***
 sbd10356   ***
 sbd hanno16753B+ (has some harshness on vocals because of clipping especially near the end of t2)***
 wgv$A-warmer, clearer, fuller, less hiss than 9111 ***
9/3/67Dance Hall, Rio Nido, CA
 sbd miller43   ***
 sbd backus17272Blevel fluctuations and occasional buzz during first minute of t1; quality is low because of harshness on guitar, pop d1t4 10:28, quality improves some for d2t1 but one should use the version released on the phil zone cd set ***

 sbd yerys1525A-  ***
 sbd miller18101A-this has about 8 second more of audience at beginning of t1 than gans version 1525 and sound quality on this one is better except that it has more hiss; has the special lyrics for the other one(small noise t1 3:49, volume jumps up t1 6:23; small pops t2 9:43, 9:44, 9:47, 9:48, t3 4:06);***
 sbd kaplan116228  discontinuity pop d2t5 11:54***
 sbd miller116257 in comparison on morning dew, 116257 has least hiss, then 116228, then 1525 and then 18101; 18101 has a more natural sound in the vocals than the others as the vocals on those sound a little suppressed in comparison but not sure if that is more significant than its extra hiss so selecting both ***
10/31/67Winterland Arena, San Francisco, CA
 sbd unclebarry kikola33933B-has the special lyrics for the other one; reported to be from 11/10/67 and 11/11/67 and is lesser quality than those; the shnids comments indicate some patching and cutting were done which may make the comparison between 33933 and 11/10/67 1612 more difficult; in comparing alligator, there is a difference in timing which could be attributed to a speed difference but they seem to match each other very well and seemed like same show until I get to the hey hey heys; 33933 has an extra set not on 1612; I count 5 pigpen heys and then 3 by someone else on 33933 and only 5 by pigpen on 1612 (this is at 3:10 on 1612 d2t1 and 3:24 on 33933 d1t1); again everything matches up very well until the cut in caution on 1612 at 20:19 (on d2) and 33933 at 20:45 near where the cut was removed (20:44); 1612 goes into extended jamming while 33933 goes right into vocals which do not match to 1612; so I am left with 33933 being a different mix to get the extra heys or a different recording; and after the cut in 33933 it is a different recording; the remainder seems to match up well with 11/11/67 1613 with the alternate other one lyrics; the mix is different with the intruments higher on 33933; 33933 also has a little more crowd at the beginning of t3 than on 1613 ***
