Notes

I'm comparing the Ardis version of this show to Dictaphone. The Ardis version has a commercial for Mandarin House dropped in at 48:28, then picks up where it left off. Dictaphone also has an ID at the end not on Ardis. There is also a Rudy version that has the end of Hootenanny at the top, it runs straight through the commercials and news, and the Shep total portion runs 1:29:29 (plus the Hootenanny at the top). Also has Sandy Lesberg plug and partial Palisades cmml after show. And the sound is better - really nice in fact! It makes me wonder if the Ardis tape is misdated, but then from when?? As I recall they all were dated on the orig cassettes, so where did the drop-in come from??
