The circulating soundboard cuts just as the Other one's last vocals are ending, and resumes immediately afterward near the beginning of Cosmic Charlie. Though it's missing on the tape, it seems almost certain that they went on to play the Cryptical reprise before transitting into Cosmic Charlie. Since this reprise varies from 2 minutes to 12 or more, it's difficult to say how much music is missing here. Dark Star cuts as they are gliding down toward the second vocals; probably around 3-4 minutes are missing before the end of the tune. After this cut the tape splices to the tag end of Alligator. It is usually assumed that the set ran Dark Star > Alligator, but this is a short set as the circulating tape runs, even after adding 3 minutes of Dark Star and 4 of Alligator, and it seems possible that more than that is missing here. There is a tape flip at 1:40 into the following Drums, but little is lost here. In the Jam in 8s out of the Eleven there are hints of Caution and of the Other one, but just hints. The Eleven analyzes: Drums > Eleven Jam [6:50] > Eleven vocals [0:41] > Eleven Jam [2:32] > Eleven 2nd theme Jam [1:02] > Jam in 8s ...
