Shame all the SoundBoard recordings got pulled, but the Dead have still probably put out more free recordings than anyone and really promoted the idea. It's a great proof of concept even if you can't stand their music. I'm currently studying the early '80's, the two year period between Brent Mydland joining and Jerry getting back into smack produced some awesome gigs by anyone's standards. -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim We are the people We've been waiting for.
