While it is pretty much impossible to determine which dates the tracks were recorded (the running order of the songs that you have differ from the discs that I have, just to add to the confusion!), but if you listen to Green's intro for "I Loved Another Woman", the one where Butterfield guests, he proudly proclaims that he has only been in the States for a week and can already speak the language. He also mentions that they will be back in two weeks - indicating that this was from June 9th.

Or june 8th or 7th or 6th? Suddenly june 9th turns up??

Their return to the Carousel saw them move up a notch in the show, with Dr. John the Night Tripper now opening and Fleetwood Mac taking the middle set before the headliners Big Brother.

I was aware of that, but hadn't changed the title (yet), sorry if I misled anybody.

Hope this helped (a little bit anyway)

I fully agree (sadly
)
BTW, I read the thread you started, asking for a couple of recordings from these shows. Do you have them already, or can I be of any help?
