BUT:

The tracks under “5)” have not been recorded in 1969 but on January 21, 1973 at the Cowtown Palace, Kansas City. It’s from a February 1973 radio broadcast.

After "Lover Of The Bayou", there's an unlisted "Jesus Is Just Alright" (it's from the same Lee Jeans Rock Concert radio broadcast).

The two tracks from the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival listed on the back cover don't appear on the LP.

So the actual track listing is as follows:

Roger McGuinn Anthology Volumes 9 and 10

 In 2012, I compiled a 10 disc series called "Roger McGuinn Anthology".

Discs 9 and 10 were called "One Year At A Time", with live performances of each year since McGuinn started performing.

In 2017, I updated Volume 2 to add tracks from 2013 to 2017.

Now, I just noticed that someone took the original 2012 compilation, made new artwork, pressed or burned a two-disc set, retitled it "As Deep As Deep Can Be" and put it up for sale on eBay.

So I thought the time had come to update disc 2 with performances from 2018 and 2019 and repost both discs.

I couldn't find live performances from 2020 and 2021, probably due to the pandemic.

Enjoy!
