Vic Chesnutt
Vic Chesnutt passed away four days ago on Christmas. I did not know Vic personally but this past summer he performed at our Daytrotter Studio in Rock Island, Illinois. Elf Power helped carry him up 44 stairs to our studio and his Daytrotter Session with Elf Power was superb. We loved his music and intensity and [...]
SANTA GOTTA GET SOME – A funky labor of love for Richie Hayward
Buy a great Christmas song and help defray Richie’s cancer treatment costs.
We love Little Feat at the Vault, in no small part due to their incredible rhythm section anchored by drummer extraordinaire Richie Hayward. Unfortunately, and to the dismay of every Feat fan, Richie has recently been diagnosed with liver cancer, and due to a [...]
220 Turkeys for The Band’s Last Waltz
It’s pretty amazing to see the Band atop the Vault’s chart of most-listened to concerts. Not because they aren’t worthy. Far from that; they’re as worthy as they get. But this all-star farewell concert, called “The Last Waltz” and staged at Winterland in San Francisco on Thanksgiving, 1976, has been pretty available for three decades, on [...]

He puts out a simple Christmas album and everybody goes nuts, wondering just what kind of a joke he’s playing this time around.
Just the idea of such a project sent Dylanologists’ minds reeling. After all, his voice isn’t what it used to be. (Frankly, even back then, it wasn’t what it used to be.)
Ed Pearl Talks About New Ash Grove Releases
This past Tuesday we released 21 stunning new Ash Grove recordings. The following is a note from our good friend and Ash Grove Founder, Ed Pearl...
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Snubees
When I’m talking baseball with my fellow New Yorkers and tell them I’m an Indians fan, nine out of ten times I’m asked if I’m from Cleveland, the assumption being that very few people outside of Ohio would root for those losers. I was born and raised in New York, but I never really stood [...]
Getting to Know Bob Marley – Quick
I must admit that when the assignment came to do a mini-book about Bob Marley and the Wailers for an app, I was unprepared.
Sure, I was an admirer of Marley’s. As a Sunday DJ on KSAN, back when it was the pioneer free-form rock station here in San Francisco, I played cuts from Catch a [...]
Touring the Vault with Katherine Featuring Vintage Rock Tickets
Welcome to the video blog series I call “Touring the Vault” in which I’ll take you on brief tours through the archive of Wolfgang’s Vault and give you a glimpse into our processes of learning and discovery. We’ll dig deep into the vast array of poster art, both inventoried and the as-yet-unearthed and tell you stories of [...]
