Ed Perlstein, who has archived collections by Nick Gravenites, Spencer Dryden, Steve Keyser (John Cipollinaâ€™s manager) and others, and who currently possesses John Cipollinaâ€™s personal tapes, was given the approval of Johnâ€™s sister, Antonia, to share Johnâ€™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 Johnâ€™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

========================================

Here we have a brand new Zero recording being torrented for the first time.
This was also absent from the ETREE database, until now.
The sound quality on this is very good and enjoyable.
Thanks to Nathan for recording all those years ago and sharing with us here.

Zero opened for Kokomo (which included Brent Mydland and Billy Kreutzmann)

John Cippolina did not play this night.

Guitarist Steve Kimock and drummer Greg Anton formed Zero in the early â€˜80s after playing together in Keith and Donna Godchauxâ€™s Heart of Gold Bandâ€”a group that performed only one show before former Grateful Dead keyboardist Keith Godchaux tragically died in a car accident. After recruiting a stacked lineup of some of the Bay Areaâ€™s most revered instrumentalists, including Nicky Hopkins (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who), Vince Welnick (The Tubes, Grateful Dead), John Kahn (Jerry Garcia Band), Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship), Bobby Vega (Santana), John Cipollina (Quicksilver Messenger Service), and Martin Fierro (Quicksilver Messenger Service, Legion Of Mary) among others, Zero earned notoriety among San Franciscoâ€™s tastemakers with their improvisation-heavy performances and psychedelic takes on popular songs, helping to lay the foundation for the modern jam band scene.
