Notes on track selection (from the original compiler):
Obviously, there are hundreds of versions of the title track. I opened with the best sounding Santa Monica Flyers version I had (I like Neil mentioning the "new album Tonight's the Night" as if it were coming right out, but of course it was instead shelved for 2 years. Plus, this really has "the spook" of the album, IMHO). I closed the album sequence with a great sounding Horse version, with pounding drums, and Neil playing a stinging guitar.
I didn't have a good "Speakin' Out" from '73, so I went with a '92 solo version. I used an electric "World on a String" from '73, but also included a nice solo-acoustic version from '92 as an alternate track (Interesting side note: The last time Neil played this song in '73 was at the Music Hall in Cleveland. He then waited 19 years to play it again live. And, when he did, it was also at the Music Hall in Cleveland--included here).
Both versions of "Borrowed Tune" are from 1973 (consecutive dates, actually). Pick your favorite. They both sound decent, but not really great. Neil's only played the song 9 times live, all in January 1973. These are the only two I could find.
The whole point of Neil including COBLGD on the LP was to honor Danny Whitten. So, it wouldn't make much sense to include a non-Whitten version. I prefer the Fillmore versions, but feared a ban. This Cincinnati version is still a nice enough soundboard.
This is the best sounding "Mellow My Mind" I could locate, and it's DAMN good. I put in the Bottom Line solo version of RAN(FTR), as I always use that show whenever I can--one of my all-time favorite boots! But, there's a SMFlyers version included as an alternate, too. Didn't have a worthy '73 "Albuquerque" so I went with a nice '99 version. I went with Stray Gators on "New Mama" and "Lookout Joe"--I think they're pretty hot (There's also an SMFlyers version of "New Mama" as an alternate). As for "Tired Eyes", well, it was only played in '73, and this is the best I've got. It's "good" at best, but shouldn't detract much from the overall listening.
