I would not hold your breath because the latter is more likely I think.
First reaction when the Man was quizzed right after the concert was not very propitious."There were mistakes" or words to that effect. So there will almost certainly be another would be prized addition to the shelf stock that already includes a nearly perfect Massey 1974 (the audience recorded bootleg is pretty fair with no obvious problem caused by a broken fingernail
that mars it for me at least) and no doubt there are many worthwhile outtakes lying around not to mention a large number of unused "demo" recordings from 2002 not deemed good enough for the far less than full capacity collection on the 2004 issued Harmony CD.
that's my 2/100th of a loonie's worth anyway.
