From the Vault

[music]

Three years ago, Clear Channel sold off the contents of Bill Graham's
music vaults to raise a quick $5 million. Now, one of the great
unearthed treasures among the posters, shirts, and historical
artifacts within those vaults came to light - thousands of hours of
classic live tapes kept in the basement of Bill Graham Presents.

Now, at www.wolfgangsvault.com, you can now listen to Jimi Hendrix at
the Fillmore in 1969, Pink Floyd at Oakland Arena in 1977, and Muddy
Waters and Paul Butterfield at the Fillmore in 1967, among many more.
It is possibly the greatest tour of the history of live rock one can
imagine.

All are soundboard copies, or, in other words, as good as any live
album. And now there is talk that the entrepreneur, Bill Sagan, 55,
who scooped these up may release a long line of related albums. That
alone could be worth more than his $5 million investment.
