Although not mentioned by the file provider, this seems to be one of the
joint Byrds / Flying Burrito Brothers concerts. Listen closely to tracks 4, 5
and 6 from set 2.
The Flying Burrito Brothers were:
Chris Hillman, Michael
Clarke, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Bernie Leadon, Rick Roberts.
The last track sounds so different, it probably originates from another
concert.
