These tapes preserve the "Holy Soul Jelly Roll" sessions recorded at The Record Plant, New York, in November 1971, with a band including Artie and Happy Traum, David Amram, and others. The original album project was abandoned but three of the tracks eventually appeared on First Blues (1982) and an incomplete bootleg of the sessions was issued in 1986.

Allen Ginsberg; gifted to Barry Miles
