NOTE
This is the early show/set, all of which was broadcast. After 20+ years of searching, I never found the late show/set. This show marked the return of Gary Duncan, whom left one year earlier, on Dec. 31 1968 (no known recordings) to clean himself up. From what I heard from band members, part of the deal with him coming back was the band also added his friend, Dino Valenti, into the fold. Dino started out just as a new member of the band. Sad that by mid 1970, his massive ego, at the time, put himself as the so-called LEADER of it. Any Cipollina era QMS is well worth having, imho. It just wasn't the same when Dino did that

This set was part of a long New Year's Eve concert put on at the Winterland from 8pm to 6am by Bill Graham. Performers were: Hot Tuna, The sons (of Champlin), QMS, New Years Jam (members of many of the bands), Jefferson Airplane, The Sons, QMS, Jefferson Airplane.
