Footnotes
Tracks seven and eight are really two parts of a single set combining Les Blues du Cadien with Whole Lotta Love, which feature Casey Driessen on fiddle and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin on mandolin. This combination is particularly obvious when Sarah cuts back to Les Blues du Cadien right in the middle of Whole Lotta Love (at roughly the point where the free-form section would have appeared in the original Led Zeppelin recording of Whole Lotta Love). Also, the song "Magalenha" is similarly interrupted in the middle by "Papa Senior's" before returning to its normal melody.
