Bit of trivia: although the venue for this date is constantly referred to as "Harpur College," the school was already known as State University of New York at Binghamton. I think the name change occurred circ. 1966.

When this came out as a Dick's Picks I bought two copies!! A wonderful acoustic set followed by monstrous hard edged versions of some of my favorite material. The Cryptical, Good Lovin, Dancin, Dew and Viola are complete standouts and get my juices flowing every time.
To quote another head "Listening to this show changed the way I thought about music forever."
Thank you very much Mr. Dick Latvala.
