'Live 1969' on Vinyl

[MJG196]

I bought this album on cassette in the late 80s and it had a somewhat different track list, too, missing "Sweet Bonnie Brown" (when I saw that title on the CD I thought it had to be a mistake) and one other, I think. One of the more confusing items in the discography. It was actually sold on 2 separate CDs for a long time. The bizarrely awful cover with no information only adds to the mystery.

I didn't know it was ever re-packaged as a 2CD set! I have the two "separate" CDs.

As far as I know, 1969 Live is still only available on the 2 seperate CDs (in the US, anyway). In several places, you can hear the crackles from the acetate disc it was mastered from. Any hope of a reissue someday? Someone out there is sitting on those master tapes.

I think 1969 being reissued is tied up in that legal situation with the original owners of some of the tapes, the guys that ran The Matrix. Should that ever be resolved, I think 1969 won't be reissued but split between two Bootleg Series volumes, one at the Matrix and one at End of Cole.
