Interesting idea. The thing that makes me think the
circulating tape is different from the show the author describes is that
St.Stephen had come to its close and gone into the Eleven long before Man's
World came around. On the other hand, the Jam out of The Eleven>Drums is
identical to a theme from the middle jam of the 5/2/70 Good Lovin'. It's
possible that this jam may have done the following before the cut:
It may have gone through a brief instrumental St.Stephen riff,
or (gasp!) a reprise of the Eleven theme before swinging into Good Lovin', then
into Man's World, with another brief St.Stephen riff at some point before the
circulating tape cuts back in.
Either that or it's a different (yet similar) set from the
next night. If it's the same set and the author doesn't mention The Eleven
(maybe he considered it to be part of St.Stephen), the. I wouldn't count on his
being correct about the day of the week, either. Also, the article is dated
4/30/70 - he may have mixed the shows in his mind by then. In any case, I'd give
the 4/25 date at most the same level of credibility than the "July 11, 1970"
date spoken by Marty Weinberg on his master of what has long circulated as
7/12/70.
Here's hoping that one day a crisp, complete set of neatly
labeled SBD reels will find their way out of hiding...
