"When I shared this tape over a decade ago, my benefactor asked me to obfuscate the provenance of the source, even if the story I told wasn't true.  We now have permission to share the fact that this tape was directly from Bear, brought from his compound in Australia and given to me."  - Jamie Waddell

Notes:
- This show marks the first appearance of members of the Grateful Dead at the San Francisco Civic Auditorium.  Jerry would play there with Merl in June 1975, and the Grateful Dead?  Not until 1983!
- While Billy would sit in with Kingfish again in 1985, this appearance marks the only known time that Bob and Billy appeared in Kingfish together.

"The 1975 High Fidelity Music Festival slated for San Francisco will feature a host of performers in concert, with ticket prices the lowest anywhere. The Festival, hosted by the Institute of High Fidelity, runs April 3 through 5 at the Civic Center [sic] with its 7,000 - plus capacity auditorium located at 99 Grove Street. There will be four concerts, one each night and one on Saturday afternoon. On Thursday, April 3, Taj Mahal, noted Columbia recording artist, will kick off the Festival's entertainment with his self-styled blues music. He will be followed by Dizzy Gillespie, jazzman supreme, who will also receive the Artist of the Year Award that night. Concert begins at 9 p.m. On Friday, April 4, starting at 9 p.m., The Sensational Alex Harvey Band will bring its own unique brand of rock n' roll to the proceedings, to be followed by Styx, the hot Chicago based soul group with their hit single, "Lady." Aretha Franklin will be honored with the artist of the Year Award on Friday night. Saturday, afternoon, Kingfish provides the entertainment starting at 2 p.m. Kingfish, a new band, combines the talents of Bob Weir, rhythm, guitarist and vocalist of the Grateful Dead, and Dave Torbert, bass and vocalist of the New Riders of the Purple Sage, in new directions in progressive rock. Earl Scruggs will be honored as Artist of the Year Saturday afternoon."
