Concert bootlegs that used to sell for $25 to $50 at record conventions are now streaming for free at this online archive. The recordings are all the property of Bill Graham Presents and include concerts captured for the "King Biscuit Flower Hour" and other '70s and '80s radio shows. At last check, there was a Pink Floyd set from 1979, a U2 gig from 1983, a couple of Stones shows from 1981, and four different Springsteen marathons from 1973 to 1988. The audio is decent for streamed music -- just good enough to make you want to buy these sets if and when the artists agree to let them be sold.
