I remember listening to the Allman Bros. live at Filmore west in summer of 1971 wondering
when the promised release of The Velvets live at Max's was coming out. The Allman's
set was not mine but that is what my suppliers listened to...
The VU Max's set was promised in Circus magazine nearly a year before it hit the
stores. I bought mine on Cannery Row in Monterey CA, same place I got loaded(Loaded).

Its hard to believe that it went for over $ 400.I got mine 20 years ago for 30$.The pale pink BG8 handbill the same day from the same seller went for almost the same price & it is even rarer(& actually more interesting...)I thought it would have reach $600.things are getting pretty confusing...the screen test bootleg for over $ 200,the banana sticker(without the record) :shock: for $ 1000.Very unpredictable market.

To be honest, if I had the spare bucks, it would have been mine at that price.
