Donor notes: Different items recorded in mono on left and right channels of side 1. Juma says this is not an overdub, but different things recorded to save tape space. (You can hear the left channel music on right,but not ice versa. Perhaps that was p art of the "experiment?) Digital version maintainst them in stereo, although it doesn't line up. "Experiment Y-13" on back. Hard to read info on front. "Oboe / English Horn" etc. "Little Milton Drums Tenor… Kirk ???" on spine. Side 2 (heads out) has audibleat 3 3/4 what appears to be a radio show. Very low on tape - prbaby recorded over. Begins with a a percussion and spoken word event. Poem about black man riding the subway. Second poem "Niggers are scared of revolution." Could be Ju-Ju? Then goes into a commercial version of "Tracks of My Tears." Not sure who is singing. A few R&B tunes follow.
