    BILL GRAHAM'S VAULT IS OPEN

    www.wolfgangsvault.com

    JamBase has just received news that a plethora of vintage performances

    from some of rock's biggest names are now available through Wolfgang's

    Vault.

    Vault Radio has begun streaming some 75 songs culled from thousands of

    hours of tapes from the archives of legendary promoter Bill Graham. It

    appears that some of these performances from Graham's archive will

    eventually make it to stores, perhaps by the end of the year.

    Located in a 22,000 square foot warehouse in San Francisco, Wolfgang's

    Vault boasts authentic concert materials from such artists as Johnny

    Cash, Miles Davis, Santana, Jefferson Airplane, Rolling Stones, U2, Tom

    Petty, Jimi Hendrix and the Who.

    The bulk of the music was obtained for more than $5 million in 2003 by

    entrepreneur Bill Sagan who named it in honor of Graham, born Wolfgang

    Grajonca. Graham died in a 1991 helicopter crash.

    The initial Vault Radio playlist is "all over the board in terms of

    performer, year, venue and genre," Sagan tells Billboard.biz. "You'll

    hear Miles Davis, Led Zeppelin, Bruce Springsteen from 1973 when he

    opened

    for Blood, Sweat & Tears at the Berkeley (Calif.) Community Theatre,"

    Sagan says. "You'll hear instrumental-only from Booker T & the MGs, and

    you'll also hear Jeff Beck and Elton John. The single thread of

    continuity is these are all concerts Bill Graham promoted from the

    mid-1960s

    through 1975, for the first group."

    The site is free and requires no subscription fee for streaming at

    128k.

  4. Hey all,

    Looking for someone who might be looking to expand a web portfolio. Basic design is there, need someone to improve what is there (or change completely if it suits us and the author)and to maybe implement a few things. Is for a music related site. Please PM me if you're interested....

  5. Is it even out yet?

    I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be realeased on Dec 20th. Thats weird though..I just checked hmv.com again and now it is saying June 2006. So, I don't know...there was a local store that claimed to have had it over christmas but they must have been thinking about the live MSG release. Who knows...

  6. Well, Im finishing school as well so I have lots to read...but here are the books I am into at this moment (aside from the ecologicalal education articlese that have been engaging me..) :

    Bryson's "short history of nearly everything"

    Ronald Wright's "short history of progress"

    "the conquest of happiness" bertrand russell

    "teacher man" frank mcCourt

    "handbook of the canadian rockies" ben gadd (AMAZING text containing geology, plants, animals history and recreatino of the rockies...fantabulous.
