Hello all,
I found this bootleg on archive.org. It seems like a board recording of a bunch of the greats toward the end of the "golden age."
Enjoy

I've heard this before - just amazing stuff.
I'm not well versed in many things tech: does anyone know how I can get this on my computer? I'd love to have a CD copy to play in my car.

If you look in the "download options menu" you should be able to click on an download the FLAC option (it contains 49 files). There should be an easy way to convert those to mp3s or audio files that'll burn onto a CD playable in your car.

I clicked on what I found, and apparently it downloaded. The problem is I don't seem to be able to open it. VLC or Windows Media Player won't open it.

The downloaded file is a "zip" file (compressed file). You have to "unzip" it to a folder first then you can play the individual files.

Thanks, Jack.
Looks like maybe I don't actually have it downloaded properly - it's only 38KB (small, right?) and it doesn't show as a zip file/unlock zip file.
I got a buddy who's a whiz with computer stuff, so I'll see what he can find.
Thanks for the help, all.
