    i am absolutely thrilled to be working on a new book for @HachetteBooks, an alternate history of music told through grey area recordings, live tapes, bootlegs, mixes, & other secretly influential non-releases from the 19th century to the present. out in 2022... maybe?

    omg 14 minutes of live pro-shot karen dalton film from montreux, 1971. i don't think any of this is even in the new documentary. there's (almost) no live karen dalton audio anywhere, let alone video. youtube.com/watch?v=kIJbrX… via @gregdavismusic

    I just received the very sad message that on March 6th at the age of 94, Lou Ottens, the inventor of the audio compact #cassette, has left us. We will not forget him. <<>> Lang Leve Lou Ottens! <<>> Long Live Lou Ottens!

    some "get back"/grateful dead context: in january '69, while glyn johns was lashing EMI's 2 4-tracks together at apple, bob matthews & betty cantor were dragging the new alembic/dead 16-track up the stairs into the avalon ballroom to start recording "live/dead."
