Good day, Voodoo Wagon gang!
Most of what I post are projects where I'm digitizing or chaptering a cassette tape. But every so often I run across something unusual that needs to get wider distribution; something rare, something surprising. And that's what I've got here for you.
Charlie Miller is a Grateful Dead fan who transfers and shares Grateful Dead shows. When he works on other projects it is generally similar bands such as Phish, or bands from the S.F. 60's scene like the Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver, etc.
Last week this one turned up. I'm just going to post the file he shares "as-is" without further chatter on my part.
