The last CdBaby release was a Christmas present for the fans. This was something extra special for the fans, a three cd set, with graphics printed on
the cds with a litho process. This set contained a 1971 Darmstadt Germany show, and the remarkable thing is that it survived all those years sounding
pretty clean and clear. The bonus disc contained recordings of the *1st ever performance of KOT, an early version of Lonely Roads from 1971 (called We
Are the Ocean at the time), and a recording of Dream Nebula from the Community College of Morristown show from 1976. Sandy Peticolas ©

* Mick Brockett confirmed shortly after this Underground Recording was released that what is called "KOT" on this release was actually from
May 14, 1974 and is not the first actual recording of "Crying In The Dark / King Of Twilight" played as one song on any recordings. Sometime
in late 1974, the combined songs "Crying In The Dark / King Of Twilight" became known and announced by Mo many times from then on as just "King
Of Twilight"
