Early

Flac's made from the MP4's. I removed the 88/1000's secs gaps and fixed when necessary.
Why flac ? if not we would be back with the gaps. I like to listen to my shows without them...

The Oct. 13 1978 shows are famous among FZ collectors, for their inspired playing and extended solo extravaganzas.
While maybe not really as freaked-out as the late show, parts of this show is about as good as 1978 gets.
