At the Monterey Pop Festival performance of "Dino's Song" Jim Murray played guitar. Gary Duncan sang but did not play guitar on that song as it was slung behind his back during the performance of the song. John Cippolina played lead guitar while David Freiberg, bass, and Murray shared lead vocals. Duncan played a tambourine during the last chorus. (At the Monterey Pop Festival performance)
