Blind Faith
August 16, 1969
Fairgrounds Arena
Santa Barbara, CA

Note that this show has been bootlegged over the years both under this date
and as "Pauley Pavilion 11/26/1969." The consensus is that  8/16/1969 is the
correct date for this recording, and that no Blind Faith show took place
at Pauley Pavilion on 11/26/1969 or any other date. 

1. // Sleeping in the Ground > band intros 
2. Crossroads

4. Means To An End

5. Well Alright *
6. Can't Find My Way Home
7. Had To Cry Today

8. // Do What // You Like 


Primary Source: "Can't Find My Way Home" liberated bootleg cd > eac > shn > wav 
Secondary Source(*): "Crossroads" liberated bootleg cd > eac > shn > wav

Sources combined, normalized and edited with Cool Edit 2000,
tracks split with cdWAV.

No noise reduction or EQ tweaking has been applied.

I compiled this show from the two sources, restoring the original setlist order
as best as I can judge, based on analysis of cuts (or lack of) in the recordings
and known Blind Faith setlists of the same tour.  Both sources apparently
originate from the same master AUD, though the primary source is higher
quality.

I was able to reconstruct 3 continious sections; tracks 1-4, 5-7 and track 8.
There are discontinuities on both sources between tracks 4&5 and 7&8, and a 
cut in track 8. Unfortunately, Do What You Like was not on my secondary source,
so I could not patch this cut, or even see if ithe cut was duplicated on 
that source.

The beginning of Sleeping in the Ground is missing and probably an encore, most
likely Sunshine Of Your Love. Given known setlists from this tour, it does not
seem likely that any other songs were performed.
