::: Lovely, great stereo, SBD recording with a bit o' hiss, particularly between songs. Check samples to take a gander or for a couple of quick snorts; to cool your engines or put sweat on yr brow as the case may be.
::: Warts: Taper cut off equipment between some songs. First part of "Turn, Turn, Turn" is a bit rough, with a bit of volume fluctuation here & there (tape fatigue?). Hiss jumps up between songs like there was some kind of ALC involved, but sinks away when the music starts. "Eight Miles High" has a second of speed fluctuation. All in all, nothing tragic!
::: Nice echo on the vocals at times, The old Rickenbacker 12-string is singing sweetly!

I remember doing this artwork decades ago...
