Known Manufacturing & Labeling Issues (Collector Notes)

This release is known for several documented physical production errors:

1. Athens / Knoxville CD Swap Issue

CDs 9–10 contain the Knoxville concert audio but are labeled as Athens.
CDs 11–12 contain the Athens concert audio but are labeled as Knoxville.

This is confirmed audibly — at the end of CD9-1.b, Jon Anderson can be heard saying, “it’s nice to be back in Tennessee.”

2. Ottawa Venue Misprint

The November 1, 1972 concert location (CDs 3 & 4) is printed as:

• “National Arts Centre English Theatre” on the gatefold

However, the box, booklet, and official website list:

• “Ottawa Civic Centre”

The latter is considered correct based on available evidence.

3. Artwork Copyright Misprint

The artwork copyright date on the back of the box is incorrectly printed as ©2105.
