"THE WORLD'S GRANDEST, LARGEST, BEST LIVE RECORDING"
so states the Hype Sticker on front cover - considering the Dead's equipment and renowned sound engineers,
...plus a Direct Metal Master - by Howie Weinberg himself - at Masterdisk and you can see it is no mere 'hype'.

"Their first LIVE album in 10 years. Includes over two hours of historic performances. Featuring "Eyes Of The World" (with Branford Marsalis), "Help On The Way/Slipknot!/Franklin's Tower," "Cassidy" and "Dear Mr. Fantasy".

To top it all off are some very rarely recorded titles: BIRDSONG, Mr. FANTASY, WALKIN' BLUES...
...and the icing on the cake? Glorious RICK GRIFFIN Cover Art.

Gold "Promotional Copy Not For Sale" stamp on back cover, l.r. corner.

___________________________________________________
Beginning to unfold an amazing and utterly vast melded record collection, ferreting out the duplicates and passing them on. My life-long best friend, who was a DJ at the Radio Station I co-founded in the 1970's - and who worked for me at my California record store in the '70s and '80s - has now finally left this mortal coil, bequeathing me his deep Vinyl Mine - Several thousand records (mostly LP's, but also many 45's), several hundred collectible and Rare, Out of Print CDs and Box Sets, plus posters and other memorabilia - most of which will all become available as I move through the collection.

Always collecting everything he could - with strong tastes in rare and often obscure Psych, worldwide Prog, Electronic and Space Rock, Classic '60s Rock, innovative Hard Rock, UK Blues Rock, Glam, Odd sounds, all things Tolkien and Disney, Hawaiian Slack Key and more.

We had very similar tastes - so numerous prime duplicates are emerging now. Many PROMOS, IMPORTS and 1st PRESSINGS are included - indeed some still sealed.

Following soon, I will begin listing numerous LP auctions, with low opening bids - starting with the Prog, Electronic and Space Rock, then the Psych and on from there. You WON'T want to miss those!! (it may take me several weeks (months?) to list them all... just finished going through all the LP boxes - checking Pressing, Edition and Condition (most so far are VG++ to NM). It's all coming soon...

Following the LP's will be either the CDs or the 45's next - and then ultimately the posters and other paper. Truly a great (and enormous) collection!

after thousands of miles, many days spent gathering it all and several thousand dollars spent flying out to California and then trucking it all back to my new home, the tip of the iceberg now emerges - a few choice pieces off the top, listed at set price to recoup some expenses now. I'm not yet near ready for the full-scale auctions that are planned to begin soon.

It may be a while until I can organize my 1st auction series of at least 100 LP auctions at one time, but mark/save this listing eBay ID and check back.

Diligent collectors WILL be rewarded!
