Have you heard about “Wolfgang’s Vault?”. I don’t recommend web sites too often, but this one is too good to not share.
When the late Bill Graham, famous concert promoter of the 1960’s and 1970’s died, his memorabilia collection was sold to Bill Sagan, a west coast entrepeneur. This was no scrapbook. Graham had amassed a collection large enough to fill 25 forty foot tractor trailers.
The collection included millions of photos, posters, t shirts, banners etc. from some of the most famous names in rock-Hendrix, Joplin, The Who, The Rolling Stones, etc. The list of names goes on for pages.
Sagan has a unique, and really great business plan, for selling this memorabilia. The items that Graham has collected are for sale at the web site, and Wolfgang’s Vault streams (for free) hundreds of live concerts from this era, including some fo the best known from theFillmore West. They claim to have over 7000 different concert performances and you can listen any time you want by simply registering at the site.
The folks who run Wolfgang’s Vault are involved in a lot of legal litigation regarding who really has the rights to these concerts, so this may not last. Check it out while you can!
