Footnotes
  1. Decktician's log claims the track ('10 O'clock In The Morning') played from an LP. Ken Garner's notes state "Steeleye Span opener was titled 'The Blacksmith' I think, a single on RCA." However, Steeleye Span's first single appears to be "Rave On" released in 1971. "The Blacksmith" is a track on the band's first album Hark! The Village Wait
