    That dark area above Bonzo's right hand is the pattern  on his shirt. ( I can't see a drumstick though the pic may have caught him in the middle of twirling the stick and it is pointing downwards ?? _)

    Two red maracas, they're even picking up the light from above. He's also holding a drumstick which is pointing near his ear. I just listened to Kashmir and can't really hear them anywhere...(great version, btw). I think he was just trying something here, maybe it worked in rehearsals. Is there any film of this show?

    Also, re the Tim Rose appearance on Top Gear (July 1st, 1968), although Dougie Wright is listed as the drummer (source), that sure does sound like it could be Bonzo. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. 

    Have a listen here.

    Track 1 - Roanoke: drumming with his hands (1:55)

    Track 2 - Foggy Mountain Breakdown On Rye With Mustard: multiple drum rolls (e.g. 4:34 & 5:00-5:20)

    Track 3 - I Guess It's Over: drum rolls throughout [triplets?] (e.g. 6:40, 7:00, 8:16, 8:20 ...)

    Track 4 - Long Haired Boy: multiple rolls throughout but harder to make out (e.g. 11:00)

    Sounds like Bonzo to me. Nothing jumps out as "No way that's Bonzo". In fact, the fills on track 2 are very 'Good Times, Bad Times' to my ears, the triplets near the end also. I think it's him

    "The “bin master” tapes came from a Studio in NY. The original (bin) analogue master tapes were transferred digitally at 32/192 from a calibrated Ampex ATR-102 at 15 IPS . Or in some cases @96/24. I do not know of the ADC but it was the studio’s own. =quality. The tapes were destined to be thrown into a waste skip as not required any more. The guys who transferred them were sound engineers, one of them was also a record producer."

    😆  yeah, they were just going to throw out the masters...

    Boston 1969 has a radio interview in Boston the same day or week as the shows where they talk about tickets and such I believe:

    wow, never heard that interview before, cool! Talking about the plaster casters...JJ Jackson is so high, haha
