We are pleased to continue our series of releases from a long time West Coast taper/collector that passed a few years ago. 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.

Our 44th realease is an absolute gem, taken from our anonymous collector's audience master tapes of night three of Santana's five night stand at the Old Waldorf supporting the yet to be released "Zebop!".

This is easily one of the best audience recordings I've ever heard. There are still many shows to come prior to this one but after hearing this capture it had to be moved up the que.

This appears to be the first release for the night's performance.

There are a number of folks we are indebted to for access to this exciting new archives, the anonymous West Coast collecor, 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.

And finally, a big thanks to Goody, our pitch master, for his continued support of all our historic releases.

Collectors don't wait until it's too late to get those shows out, there are a number of us here to assist getting those archives out for all to enjoy.
