This recording comes with a sheet that was with the reel, on KCEE letterhead.

“This tape recorded Dec. of 1964 from about 2:30 to 4 AM in the morning
at Brooks Adams Otis’ house, Stanford, California.  The Colonels had just finished playing
5 or 6 sets at a coffee house, and everyone was so tired we were all about
to pass out from lack of sleep...but we got started and couldn't stop!!”
