![]() ![]() When the Archive began hosting what is essentially the Grateful Dead Vault, users could download any and all shows that were available. Obviously this is extremely hard to police and the open trading of soundboards was never stopped, until… This essentially means that trading SBD copies of shows was/is copyright infringement. Technically speaking, SBD sources were never covered under the taping and trading policy. As I have always understood it, those rules applied to audience sourced recordings only. You graciously run off the tapes and send them back. I buy the blank tapes and pay the postage for shipping and return shipping. Blanks and postage (B/P) was the accepted means of trading. But, alas it happened from time to time.Īs far as trading was/is concerned, by no means should there ever be money exchanged. The band was never in agreement to allow SBD patches. As far as I understand that’s at least partially why he and the band parted ways. On some nights Healy would patch somebody into the soundboard and a daisy chain of decks would capture that mix. It was usually off center, behind the soundboard. I think a lot of that has to do with the physical location of the taper section. Once the taper section was introduced, audience tapes were really never the same in my opinion. All their work is on the Archive for your listening enjoyment. Tapers like Joanni Walker, Jim Wise, Barry Glassberg etc were recording pretty incredible audience source tapes in those days. Unfortunately the designated taper section was not located in such prime real estate, and that was probably by design. A lot of that had to do with the fact that tapers would set up in front of the soundboard (FOB). By the time the early 80’s rolled around there were some high quality audience tapes making the rounds. Obviously people were taping before then, and many of those clandestine audience tapes are highly revered. The first show that had a designated taper section was 10/27/84. /r/ActualHippies - All things flower powered.r/musiccritics - That's just, like, your opinion, man.Ticket Buying - Best practices for not getting ripped off. ![]()
