As Red House was already in two parts I used this gap to separate the two cd’r-s. For the covers I used and reworked pics from the great Japanese fanzine “Stone People” (issue #47). 

As usual all the infos are taken from The Mick Taylor’s Complete Works Database by Nico Zentgraf: http://www.nzentgraf.de/books/mt/taylor1.htm 

For this show we had the CD n°2 from IMP-N-014 'Nasty Blues'-bootleg with very good sound (a radio broadcast) but incomplete: CYHMK is partial (only 3 minutes from the 23 minutes!), “Third Stone…” is missing and the frequency spectrum seems very limited (it's surely lossy). 
Fortunately nzb sent me an alternate source, with a good sound and a better frequency spectrum, but it also had two defaults: a 2 minute gap in the middle of “Red House” (from 5’ to 7’ maybe a tapeflip?) and it runs too slow. 
Because lossy files cannot be used on certain sites I dropped the idea to create a mix from the two sources for “Red House” and decided to do 2 versions for this show: 
- Vol 09a with only nzb’s source reworked: it’s the version you have here 
I upgraded nzb’s source by adding a little more bass and treble, re-equilibrated the channels and I used the IMP source to correct the speed (+1,68%). 
- Vol 09b with nzb’s source upgraded and the IMP version reworked (transitions 
between the songs): …..so a two sources version but with lossy & lossless files that can only be downloaded on IORR https://www.iorr.org/talk/list.php?2
