We are pleased to kick off a series of releases from a long time West Coast taper/collector that recently passed away. He transferred his extensive archives to CDR years prior to his passing and then passed it to a close friend. His friend has been involved in the Bay area music scene for the last five plus decades and understands the importance of getting these historic shows out to the collector�s community. We are working closely reviewing the shows and researching current circulation as well as possible upgrades.

Our seventh release is the previously uncirculated (or under-circulated) SB of Santana's December 3, 1972 Amsterdam LATE show from a VERY low gen SB. The late show has less cuts than the early show, once again Goody stepped up to the plate to get us to the correct pitch and knocked the setlist out of the ballpark.

As you can see below, the new archives has already produced some excellent releases and we have many more marked for mastering and release!

There are a number of folks we are indebted to for access to this exciting new archives, the anonymous West Coast collector, may he rest in peace, his friend that had the motivation and understands the need to get these historically important shows into circulation before they were lost forever and a huge thanks to dime member �davmar77�. He did not currently have the bandwidth to facilitate such an undertaking at this time and put us in touch...this is how dime should work.

Dimers don't wait until it's too late to get those archives into circulation.
