Grateful Dead

This year, listening to Arlo’s Thanksgiving staple, his annual rendition of Alice’s Restaurant Massacree, will be especially poignant, as Alice Brock, remember Alice, passed away 2 days ago at the age of 83. Previously of Sturbridge, she later moved to Provincetown at the tip of the cape. I’m sure many of us can recite several portions of the song, just as we can sing along with so many of the GOGD songs. “You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant, excepting Alice, You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant, walk right in, it’s around the back, just a half a mile from the railroad track, You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant”

I don’t mind ‘em. I’ve listened to Dick’s Picks 28 and 29 dozens of times and I’ll never get tired of them.

The combos are a win-win. A bit easier to narrow down, and you get MORE music to enjoy. There haven't been as many times this year (as in years past) where I listened carefully to the noodlings after the song ended to try to guess what was being played next to narrow it down.

This time, I had a feeling it was in the year of the really blistering Eyes, but this was a bit later on.

Those bombs, though. =8^O RIP Phil.
