    I got this one at the start of the week and I had hoped to have it out this week, but one thing lead to another and I'm not finished yet. Cub Scout camping trip this weekend, so I'll mail it to JackStrawfromColorado the middle of next week. Peace - David

    .cda and wav are the same, I think.
    *.cda was the original CD file suffix from back in the day. *.wav are equivalent. MP3 is way more lossy, but smaller files. There may be a little file header difference between .cda and .wav but the encoding is the same - I think the difference comes up in the disc format structure, whether its a data disc or an audio disc. Perro had both the DVD with the flac files and CDs with already decoded wav files of the DVD files. Maybe the player is looking at those .wav files as .cda files since the discs were created as audio CDs and not just data CDs with wav files on them. To summarize: *.wav files on an audio CD = *.cda files Perhaps one of the real gurus can school us, though. Bring it up in the tech discussions forum. ************************************** *The white zone is for loading and unloading only* **************************************

    cda?
    As far as I know the audio cds I sent were in wav format. I wonder if they are the originals?

    I got this one today
    One question I have ............... Typically, I convert my flacs to wav and then burn disks so I can play them in any player. This vine includes individual cd's in .cda format as well as a data DVD with all the flacs. My plan is to convert flacs like usual. My question is this. What is the .cda format? Is that comparable to MP3? Is it lossless? Is it compatable in most players? Ok, Ok, I realize that is more than one question but I would really appreciate any answers you can provide. Peace - David

from Pink Roberts sources. (upgrades from the original vine) I think the "David and the Dorks" shows are lost. I will probably add the Perro tapes companion vine with it.

I sent a copy to John and a copy to Europe for Sunshine Daydream. They now consist of one dvd with flac files and three cd-r's. Two cds of the Perro tapes and another with outtakes of David Crosbys " If I Could Only Remember My Name". This is the resulting album from all the Perro sessions. I also included some cool pics from Wally Heider's recording studio (some of Jerry and the Perro recording set up) Enjoy!

Gee, I remember my daughter at 2. My mom and dad loved it when the Dead were doing Bay Area shows cuz we'd leave her with them for a day or two.My daughter is thirty-one now. She was Associate Director for External Relationships at Duke University until recently. Last Friday her four year old son, my grandson, while visiting his grandmother, ran into a clothing rack. His eyelid was slit in three places leaving the part with the eyelash laying halfway down his cheek. It was a two hour drive from her home to the grand mothers home/hospital. Monday her boss/neighbor who hired her away from Duke three months ago told her the business was failing and he was laying his last three hires off. She is now unemployed. Last night her husband dropped her iphone and shattered it. As stressful as I know all this has got to be she says, "Ain't none of it death, just life." Enjoy that two year old, Don .....how does this song go?

This package of mesmerizing sessions will be heading out in tomorrow's mail. I added back in the following 3 pieces, to make the set complete once again. "David and the Dorks" "Jefferson Airplane House 10-28-69" "Matrix Tuesday Night Jam Sessions 10-21-70" The package now comes as 3 audio CDs, along with 1 DVD and 2 CDs of flac/shn files. BTW ... the DVD contains some surprises from the the CSNY universe. Haven't listened yet, but they sure look to be worthy! 27. tdub547 >>> OUT 28. Island Girl 29. stepineden72 30. 31. Enjoy!

So JakeR pm'd me yesterday requesting the Perro Tapes Vine but I see forgot to put his name on the list. I edited him in. If he hadn't pm'd me I wouldn't have known youse guys were looking for this. I LIKE chocolate. Chocolate Lady, pm JakeR and let him know you want this. Do not mail the vine on to iGrateful until you pm him that you are ready to mail it to him and he responds. Stuff happens and vines die all to easily. 29. stepineden72 30. JakeR 31. The Chocolate Lady 32. iGrateful

I've searched through over 5 TB of music and cannot locate this. Next thing to do is look thru my DVDs and see if I put it on one of those but that will take some time. If anyone could reseed this I believe that would work best.

I signed up for this vine years ago and have continuously looked for PERRO related material. I am surprised to find that once in awhile I get reminded of something that has the same vibe, cross over musicians as the PERRO sessions.

This came up recently when I realized that all of the following have moments that feel very PERRO-esque and of course contain many of the musicians involved in PERRO

Baron Von Tollbooth and the Chrome Nun
Blows Against The Empire
Rolling Thunder

Are there other studio or RIOS recordings that I should add to my ever evolving PERRO playlist?

Thanks
