This is the concert formerly thought to have taken place on 11/23/70 at the Anderson Theater in New York City. Either these clips belong in a different recording all together, or perhaps they belong before the banter clip that precedes Hard to Handle. In addition, I think that while the "banter" clip before the Hard to Handle certainly belongs there, there is no banter>logger before Momma Tried.
