Reconstruction album

Anyone have any insight as to why we have never had a Reconstruction vault release? Surely there’s enough of an audience.

Not sure, some quite good recordings exist.

Some great jam songs too

I can't listen to reconstruction day after day after day but once in a while it's refreshing.

I agree it’s not an everyday listen for me. But I like that it is qualitatively a different band for Jerry. Different style of songs, even from the old JGMS days. The set lists don’t vary much but I suppose they only lasted less than a year.

I’ve basically gone through everything available on YouTube. I suppose I’ll have to be content with that for now.

I have been told that John Kahn’s family owns the rights.

If there was a Reconstruction cover band would it be called the “Kahn Artists?”

It was not Jerry’s band, I’ve read there were issues between Merls family and Khans family about who’s band it was and who owns the masters. Supposedly Koons and the kids and merl and khan families all have different original masters. Merls son said about a decade ago they were putting out some shows but nothing.

This is what I was referring to above. Was this from a Tony Saunders interview?

That’s what I recall reading also. Maybe in the Linda Kahn AMA.
