Notes
  • This show is often listed as occurring on 8/30, but that was in fact the broadcast date. Wasserman says on 8/28/70 that it has already been taped. Jesse Jarnow speculates the 23rd is a likely date, but could have been slightly before or after.
  • Venue historically listed as KQED Studios but it was not taped there. Dennis Minnick who was a photographer and video assist for the event says it was filmed at KPIX, and there is some photographic evidence showing KPIX cameras on the scene.
  • Simulcast on KPIX-TV, KCBS-FM and K101-FM.
