The beginning of Hard To Handle is clipped on the circulating tape, which also has a cut, probably brief, 5:28 into the Cryptical reprise. The Eleven analyzes ... St. Stephen > 1st vocals(1:09) ... ... The Other One > Eleven Jam(3:03)> Eleven vocals(0:42)> Eleven Jam(4:08)> Eleven 2nd theme Jam(1:01)> transition(0:13)> It's A Sin. Just before Cryptical Envelopment and again before Alligator Bobby noodles the opening chords of Weather Report Prelude. In the pause after It's A Sin Jerry asks the audience "What do you want to hear that lasts 10 minutes" -- obviously he'd just been told by the Avalon's stage manager that they had 10 minutes left on the set. The following sequence beginning with Alligator runs 19:44, mostly on the strength of a monumental passage of Feedback. Perhaps this has a bearing on the stage manager's draconian behavior in unplugging the Dead the following night during Viola Lee.
