This from Steve Redick:
Not sure of the date on this one. Carl Brauneis gave the still out and I think I heard my old boss Jack Turner and maybe Tom Shevlin as well so I’m thinking mid to late 1970s. This is NOT the big one on October 30, 1970

Thanks for the great audio and for sharing your archives.
Just to clarify: it was on that date in 1972. At the 27th Street Station.
