Freedom Foundation Jam - Uncle Charlies, Corte Madera, CA, December 21, 1982 Sbd
John Cipollina The Official Archive Series 65, released March 3, 2025.

Ed Perlstein, who has archived collections by Nick Gravenites, Spencer Dryden, Steve Keyser (John Cipollina's manager) and others, and who currently
possesses John Cipollina's personal tapes, was given the approval of John's sister, Antonia, to share John's live and studio outtake recordings in the
interest of keeping his music alive for future generations. Steve Keyser, who recorded most of John's live shows with several different bands while he
was his manager, has allowed Ed to digitize his master cassettes, and to share them with John's fans and collectors. |
|
Charlie Kaiser has recently given us access to his soundboard masters. He was the Front Of House soundman and recording engineer for virtually
all of John's bands from about 1983 until his passing. This included Thunder and Lightning, Dinosaurs, Terry and The Pirates, Problem Child, and any of
the spinoff bands. |
