Comment
Band line-up:
Rusty Day - vocals, harmonica
Jim McCarty - guitar
Ron Leejack - guitar
Tim Bogert - bass, background vocals
Carmine Appice - drums, background vocals

1) Side A of the Tim Bogert collection tape -- this is a mix of shows, which are supposed to be from 4 July 1971 and December 1971; the sequence here retains that of the cassette.
2) Based on the original edits on the cassette, there appear to be four distinct parts here:
t01, which is the last song (or last song before the encore) performed as part of an opening set for Rod Stewart and The Faces; mono.
t02 and t03 which, based on the introduction and the song, appears as if it could possibly be from a 1970 show; mono.
t04 and t05 which also appear to be the last song performed, definitely from Memphis on a Sunday, so it would appear the 4 July 1971 date is correct; no mention of opening for The Faces, this might be a smaller club date played that was not one of the tour shows?; stereo.
t06 to t08, which has Ron Leejack as part of the band, so it's definitely circa July 1971, and it is in Memphis based on the references Rusty makes; the songs here are probably closer to the beginning of the set; mono, with channel phasing at the beginning of t06.
3) t03 is cut, there are also two bump/dropout points left intact; t04 cuts in during the final part of the bass solo; t05 cuts in; t06 cuts in and has a lot of dropouts a the beginning; the first part is hissy and overmodulated, and the second part is better -- this may be two separate performances of the song pieced together; t08 is cut.
4) Ron Leejack is probably not on all the tracks here, but he's definitely on t06 to t08, and most likely on t04 to t05 as well; he is not introduced as being part of the band for t02 to t03; Leejack hails from Memphis, so it's likely that all tracks from Memphis, summer 1971 would include him.
