Dead 16 tracks

The Dead have released a cleaned up and stitched-together vault recording of shows performed at the Fillmore in 69. No way I can afford one, seeing as they're selling on Ebay for $700 (they did a run of 10,000 for $80 each; not enough apparently; there's still life in the dead...).

What's cool about these shows is that the Dead were the first to record live on a brand-new 16 track machine. 1969, let's see, that's 34 years ago. Better fidelity then than we get today from mp3... Sigh.

I'm a social interaction designer, consulting to social media companies, and part-time social technology theorist. I'm fascinated by communication issues, and try to stay abreast of new technologies while maintaining a critical distance (helped by a passion for theory and philosophy). Of late I've been v interested in climate change and issues facing the planet's well being and future. I'm an audiophile and music nut, and play guitar for pleasure. Because I consult I spend a good deal of time in cafes. Where I will frequently become over-caffeinated.
