Notes
Somebody yelled out Sea Of Madness. I'm not going to do it but I want to say something about it. When I first heard that record it was on the radio. I've never heard it before. They mixed that down - somewhere - I don't know how they got it but it was from the Fillmore East. It's on a Woodstock album if you don't know which one. It was weird, I was listening to the radio and there I was and I'd never heard the record before. I'm used to making my own records. It just seemed kind of strange. Neil Young Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Los Angeles, California, USA February 1, 1971
