Thank your for offering up complete concerts as well as compilations for sale. As much as FZ liked to shuffle and augment live performances when issuing them on record/CD (e.g. the YCDTOSA volumes), there is a lot to be said for capturing the continuity of a complete concert, in sequence, reasonably as one would have heard it when attending. I strongly encourage you to continue to do so (pre-1976 stuff especially!!). I know the economics of the situation have to be taken into account, so rest assured you have at least one able and willing buyer for every (legitimate) recorded offer. Anybody who has ever downloaded, or at least listened to any bootlegs of concerts (I am guessing there are between 3 and 3,000,000 of you out there) should be making the same financial commitment - this is timeless music, but not priceless music! Support the commerce of Art. Buy every legitimate issuance of FZ's material and spurn the rest of the spoo being peddled out there!

Okay, I am done proselytizing (sp?). Thanks again. Keep 'em coming!

Damn, I only have merchandise and vinyl!
