Woo Hoo!  "Shake Some Action" is the one I was holding out for.  Overall BOS to SF's own Groovies.
She said it was going in reverse...were all the songs in reverse chronological order?  Seems like "So It Goes" was older than some that came after it.  But overall, it seems that way.

So was anyone able to archive this?  It sounds like a marvelous set.  I was in Boston for a long weekend and missed everything.

Tinka pinged me that he had successfully archived it & would convert to MP3 and let us know how to receive soon.

Yes, I can make an mp3 file later today.  I can't post to the board from work (i'm home at the moment) so look for a post w link later tonight perhaps.
