One of the retail mail order shops here in the UK, Spincds, is saying on their website that Rhino has announced a nine cd set of the 73 shows at the closing of the Winterland which will be released on May 5th.

Hmm well correct me if im wrong but Winterland didnt close till 78 going into 79. Hence the 3 disc set already out called "Closing Of Winterland" lol. So I dont know what the hell thats about.

He means the '73 Winterland box set of the November 11 run that was all ready to go and supposed to come out a couple years back right before Rhino took over and nixed it. I hope to God this is true, I want this thing so bad. Would be the best thing Rhino has ever put out yet by the GD.

No doubt. Was Jerry still playing his Strat then?

No, he began using Wolf in early September 73 or possibly August sometime.

That may have been when he took delivery of the instrument but all the pics of May through August (at least to 8/1) of 73 show him playing Alligator, and the first one I have seen of Wolf is 9/5/73 the Hell's Angels party with Saunders.

would it work if every one spread the heel out of the shows that are known or rumored to be coming out so rhino wouldnt makea nything? would they give up? I could be wrong

I liked Jerry's tone best when he was playing his Strats.
