Review:
The sound quality of this release is great. The material is the same as (and most likely copied from) Possum Belly Overalls.
Produced by Bob Johnson, this session was three days after the Nashville Skyline LP was recorded in the same studio, with different musicians. The 1970 material is available through the CBS  Studios Reference Recording archives. It was produced by Bob Johnson as well. This session also produced the "If Not For You" version that was released on the official CBS LP 'The Bootleg Series 1-3"
