DATE PRECISION: YEAR ONLY. CAUTION: Primary recording location was Studio D in Sausalito (NOT 2200 Bridgeway), but The Plant Mobile Services provided recording equipment and Tom Flye mixed/engineered — a Plant connection but not a direct 2200 Bridgeway session. Classify as Unconfirmed pending liner note verification of whether any tracking occurred at 2200 Bridgeway. CENSUS 2026-06-12: CORRECTION to discovery note — Studio D, Sausalito, CA IS The Plant Studios at 2200 Bridgeway (The Plant had Studios A–D at that address). Tom Flye (primary Plant house engineer) engineering/mixing confirms the 2200 Bridgeway location.
