Notes

In an interview in 1976 Garcia was asked if working with Hunter was usually a case of Garcia writing the music and Hunter the words;

"More often than not. But also it's a little freer than that, too. I edit his work an awful lot, for example, a tune like U. S. Blues really will start of with three hundred possible verses. Then it's a matter of carving them down to ones that are singable."
