"Whom owns the Cornell tapes/masters ?"
jafant,
Here are a couple links to read about the storage locker(s) story...

This MUST include the early May ’77 shows...
I don't think is waiting for a special occasion to release them, its probably more so getting the tapes cooked and cleaned, transferred, then mastered and then releasing in the order they feel fit. haha...
