No, Eddie, we are not kidding: Scott Parker and Phil Surkis welcome back Joe "Vaultmeister" Travers for an in-depth exploration of the soon to be released 8 CD box set, The Mothers 1971! The new set will include all four June 1971 shows from the Fillmore East, as well as the historic, and ultimately tragic show from The Rainbow Theater. The set will also include a "hybrid" concert that was compiled from the best recordings from Franks then brand new 4-track recorder. Plus, the inside scoop on how and why the new set will feature a pristine remix of the famous Fillmore encore with John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
