This info is not 100 % accurate but it's closest we'll ever get!
Here is some info from Alec Palao:
"There are no session info accurately listing who was on each specific track, and also rarely were the sessions dated either (there are some documented by the union, but they are inconsistent). So a lot of the personnel and dates I had to figure out by looking over contracts/paperwork, playing the tracks to everyone, and then making educated guesses based on approximate dates and the sound of the music itself (for instance, Clarence did not start playing sessions for Gary Paxton until approximately June of 1967)."
Special thanks to Alec Palao for this info!
