I never found the second reel of this show and this is all I have.
The tape was labeled 1969 but the exact date in 1969 is unknown.
Joni played at the Troubadour in January 1969 (21 through 26) and again in May 1969 (20 through 25).
Joni mentions she just played on a TV show with Johnny Cash
That TV show was aired on July 19, 1969.
My guess is that this is from one of the May 1969 shows.
This recording came from the 5" master reel in the TMOQ collection.
Copied in 1986 to my Revox B-77 at 7 1/2 ips then in 1996 transferred to a DAT.
Transferred to an Audigy 4 Pro sound card via a toslink cable in 2010.
Minor editing and then conversion to 44.1 kHz sample rate with Audacity.
Note: There is a small glitch in "Both Sides Now" that was on my DAT.
No eq or noise reduction.
It is just like you were there (and maybe nodded out before the end?:)
Enjoy
