is the "not all songs exist on multi-track" a legit thing? why would they not have all of them if they have the majority of the show?

I would assume a 4th LP would make this a bit more expensive... a 4th record, bigger packaging, bigger shipping packaging, more postage, etc.
I can't imagine they would have the ability to put those songs on the vinyl and would just refuse to based on a business decision. They're made to order, so it's not like you'll be stuck with a surplus if it's less popular.
They might, however, be simplifying or fudging what the real problem is. Maybe an intern left one of the tapes on the stove after making his Kraft dinner.

Absolutely. They could have run out of tape (which is plausible, considering how long this show ended up being), or these tapes could have been destroyed at some point. So if they don't have the multi-track mixdown tapes, then they'd have to resort to using another source...which would most likely be a recording of the show ripped from the actual radio broadcast. So in essence these recordings wouldn't sound much different than what we have now (maybe brightened up a bit, but that's about it) and would essentially pointless to put on vinyl, from a sonic standpoint.
For me, it's 23 songs pulled from an awesome show during the Jack Irons era, an era in which their aren't many officially released live recordings of, professionally mixed and mastered for vinyl. Sign me up.

It's not mixed and mastered for vinyl specifically. It's mixed and mastered for mp3 / FLAC / CD / Vinyl.

Wait, did they explicitly say/imply that there's no dedicated vinyl master?

It does say "we've taken the original multi-track tapes and mixed and mastered the show for vinyl." So I'm assuming that means that there's a dedicated vinyl master, at least.

The stated purpose of the bootleg/vault program is making high-quality shows available to fans and protecting them from crappy releases from disreputable sources.
<begin joke about "crappy releases from the Ten Club">

I wish they'd make them digital only, perhaps then we'd get more than one per year.

Makes sense. Which doesn't make it any less frustrating. "We'll give you a unique re-mixed version of a legendary show previously unavailable on the bootleg market. But for the last run of songs you'll have to plug in your iphone." Do it right and do it once, you know?

Vinyl is the least attractive bootleg format. Too bad the fanbase fetishizes vinyl.
