Chris Robinson Brotherhood ~ Betty's Blends Trilogy ~ Vinyl LP's: Volume 1, Volume 2, and Volume 3

All releases are sealed, have never been opened, and are as new.

Recorded & mixed live by legendary Grateful Dead archivist BETTY CANTOR-JACKSON. "A sound engineer that caught on to the Grateful Dead phenomenon in its infancy, Betty taped hundreds of shows during the band’s heyday. Her tapes were lost in an auction years later, but bootlegs made their way into circulation during a time where tape collecting was king. The legacy of shows like 5/8/77 [Cornell] were no doubt amplified by her work: pristine recordings during the Grateful Dead’s peak years." [Dave Melamed]

As Chuck Armstrong wrote of this release: "Betty’s S.F. Blends, Volume One might just be the purest vinyl release of 2013. With no CD companion, the album is available exclusively as a 4-LP deluxe set, limited to 2,000 copies. ‘Betty’s S.F. Blends’ is eight sides and nearly two-and-a-half hours . . . As a part of the Record Store Day 2013, "Back to Black" Friday sale, Betty’s S.F. Blends actually hit independent shops the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. The 4-LP set includes 19 live tracks that were selected from the Chris Robinson Brotherhood’s five-night stay at San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall in December 2012."

Please see the last four pictures I've posted for context on the following info (these last 4 photo's were taken from the same website):

"Diving into the set, you’re first greeted by a gorgeous piece of art on the cover designed by Alan Forbes. The beautiful artwork carries over to every single inch of the set, always staying within the simple color scheme of red, black and gold. The beauty isn’t just in the artwork. The four records are each unique in their own way, all marbled with red and white dye. As you drop the needle, you’ll want to pull out the deluxe liner notes that are packed with great photos from Neal Casal, who also plays guitar for the Chris Robinson Brotherhood. Somewhere in the set you will also be greeted with a mini-poster from one of the five nights’ shows, illustrated by Forbes."

VOLUME TWO (2015):

Vibration Light Suite
Rosalee
They Love Each Other
Tumbleweed In Eden
Shore Power
Burn Slow
Driving Wheel

"Following the 2013 release of Betty’s S.F. Blends, Volume One and their third full-length album, 2014?s Phosphorescent Harvest, Chris Robinson Brotherhood are back with an exciting double-LP: Betty’s Blends, Volume Two: Best From the West. Taking cues from Volume One, the CRB once again joined forces with Betty Cantor-Jackson, legendary archivist for the Grateful Dead, and allowed her to curate the new live album.

“It’s Betty’s trip, man … we’re just on it,” Chris Robinson gratefully says. “We’re Betty’s house band!”

Set for release on June 2, 2015 the double-LP features that were captured throughout the CRB’s 2014 summer tour across the western side of the country; “Shore Power” was recorded at Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael, California.

“[Volume One] was taken from just one set of shows. This one, Betty recorded … I don’t know how many shows,” Robinson explains. “It’s a bit smaller of a presentation [than Volume One]; it’s only four sides, two pieces of vinyl." Chuck Armstrong – Diffuser.com

VOLUME THREE (2017):

I Ain’t Hiding
Got Love
Clear Blue Sky & The Good Doctor
The Music’s Hot
Roan County Banjo
I’m A Hog For You
Oak Apple Day
Get Out Of My Life Woman
Honeysuckle Interlude
Ride
Tales of Thunder Teeth
Girl I Love You
She Belongs To Me

"Recorded and mixed live from the soundboard by legendary Grateful Dead archivist and recording engineer Betty Cantor-Jackson, this latest edition captures the CRB on a Southern swing through Atlanta, Raleigh and Charleston in November 2015. The 3-LP/2-CD set includes original CRB staples like “Clear Blue Sky & The Good Doctor,” “Roan County Banjo” and “Oak Apple Day,” but focuses on the band’s sprawling selection of cover material ranging from Allen Toussaint’s “Get Out Of My Life Woman” to the Leiber/Stoller classic “I’m A Hog For You,” Bob Dylan’s “She Belongs To Me” to the Slim Harpo rarity “The Music’s Hot.” It also marks the first release in the series with current CRB drummer, Tony Leone.

In Robinson’s words: “With Betty, we trust her sonic sensibilities and give her the space and freedom to do what the woman does, and what she does is beautiful and unique. It’s the stuff rock n’ roll dreams and recordings are made of. Viva la Betty!”

Additionally, volume 3 vinyl edition includes a 2-CD bonus set recorded by Betty of The CRB’s 2015 performance at The Warfield in San Francisco." [from the CRB website for this release]
