[npc?] Bill Graham's music vault from his 35,000 concerts and now is streaming it on the net



About Vault Radio

Bill Graham and his concert promotion company, Bill Graham Presents,
produced more than 35,000 concerts all over the world. His first
venue, the legendary Fillmore Auditorium, was home to many of rock's
greatest performers - Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Doors, The
Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Led
Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Prince - and the list goes on and
on.

Graham taped thousands of live performances and stored the tapes in
the basement of the BGP headquarters. These tapes and the concerts
they captured lay dormant until the Bill Graham archive was acquired
by Wolfgang's Vault (Bill Graham's given first name was Wolfgang) in
2003.

Vault Radio is now playing selected tracks from these concerts in an
FM-quality, 128K digital radio stream. Songs will be added to and
removed from the radio show on a regular basis. We will be
broadcasting unaltered live performance music from many of the
greatest bands of the last 40 years. The music you hear on Vault Radio
has not been sweetened or polished. You'll be listening to what the
band played that night - nothing more, nothing less.
