It is possible that the source tape for the Japanese bootleg was made from this very acetate decades ago when it was in different hands. Who knows?)


I have that one (the Japanese bootleg dicussed in the listing). I shared it at the group. It's not completely "unlistenable," but it definitely could be much better.
It's Scepter Studios NYC 4/25/66 (the same date and location) and has Heroin, Venus in Furs and Waiting For the Man. Sadly, European Son is missing on my copy.
