The folks at Wolfgang's Vault boast they possess "the world's largest collection of live concert recordings spanning the '60s to the present day."
Also known for rock memorabilia, the Wolfgang people came by their stash the old-fashioned way: They bought up the archives of the late rock impresario Bill Graham, the man who staged numerous festivals and operated his two justly famous Fillmore music halls on each coast in the '60s and '70s.
Throughout this week, Wolfgang's Vault will be staging "Cracking the Vault," what it says is the "largest-ever release of live concerts for download" (for purchase), with most coming from the Graham archives. Among the artists: Aretha Franklin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Elton John, Miles Davis, Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, Warren Zevon, Freddie King and many, many others.
