All of the music recordings on this site are recordings of independent origin (ROIOs) Music that has not been officially released. If you are an artist or a legal representative of an artist and you do not want your ROIO shared on my site for free among your fans (and creating new fans), just tell me in the comment area and I will remove them. By the way these recordings exist. They won't go away. All of them can be found at various places on line. Sharing just keeps the fans that support the artists from having to get ripped off by purchasing them on auction sites, and it also introduces music to people who would never have known the artist, creating a stronger fan base.

Grateful Dead, with Etta James, The Tower Of Power, 12-31-82, A Better Mix!

The Grateful Dead With Etta James and The Tower of Power on New Years Eve. There are also guest appearances by Matthew Kelly and John Cipolina. The source for this is my master tape from the radio broadcast. I feel this is superior to the soundboard recording that is common. There is not the drop out of Etta James voice during Tell Mama, and the mix for me is better with Garcia's guitar more up front and louder in the mix. It also has some crowd noise that adds to the "New Years" feel. Of course in some cases the soundboard might be better. perhaps at the strat of sugar Magnoilia where the stupid DJs are talking. But overall I feel this is far superior to what is found on Archive.
