(Indefinite and definite articles at the beginning of song titles are ignored, so A COUPLE MORE YEARS is listed under "C" and THE BALLAD OF HOLLIS BROWN is listed under "B", for example. "Dr." is listed as if it were spelled out as "Doctor".)

Larry Crum says this performance is made up of
two parts, neither of which are from Glasgow 19 May 1966, as previously
attributed. He says: "It is fairly obvious they are recorded at different
venues if you look at the microphone setup. The first part (the intro and first
verse) is Newcastle 21 May 1966 and the second part (the last chorus and the
end) is Edinburgh 20 May 1966." This means that the Glasgow 1966 performance
