Grateful Dead

Had avoided this one until BC's post and going back for the H>S>F but the Stills sitting in on Love The One You're With was a train wreck, lol. Stills clearly cannot hear himself and the boys try their best but it's a bit rough. (as often happens on first attempts of covers) Yet a cool historic moment nonetheless. And not the first guest appearance to go astray so I enjoyed it "for what it's worth". Now there's a tune I wish they'd cover.
Cheers
Edit: Yep, that H>S>F is a good one. Tight, and I like Phil's work on this one.

...best weekend in a long time
without my digital leash
tugging at me...
look at me, read me, and down the rabbit hole,
no no no didn't happen!

PS - luv those Aug '91 shoreline shows

The last 3 episodes uploaded on dead dot net are from 4/17/83 Meadowlands, the second night that has Stephen Stills guest appearance. Lucked into a second set SBD by summer '85 and I loved it. The H > S > F opening the set is pure fire, easily one of my favorites. Been listening to these episodes as part of my long haul drive music. Latest episode with Love The One Your With uploaded today - will be listening to it when I had back home this afternoon.

She'll put a spell on you.

Ok, better, best?…

Listening to the tail end of Set I in the predawn before heading out to the field.

Now playing New Speedway Boogie . . . .

... which was so odd for Sacto. 34 years and counting now. So, yeah, somehow I got those two runs reversed in my mind.
All I know is I had a great time at both.

Highway 61 Revisited

Took a spur of the moment road trip down from Seattle to the May '91 Cal Expo run. Friend of a friend (we had met at '87 Red Rocks) hooking me up with tickets. Lot of fun - especially enjoyed 5/4 and 5/5. My only shows of the Bruce era and he wasn't there. The funny thing being I'd seen him as a guest twice (Buckeye '88 and GWF '89) before Brent passed away. The 5/5/91 Terrapin > Spanish (sounding) Jam > Terrapin apparently was broadcast on the GDH. It's been uploaded to the archive (and available on relisten) but not with an attached 5/5/91 date. Rather, its at the end of the Set II pre-drums of a GDH?/SBD upload of 5/24/95 Memorial Stadium, Seattle, the only part of that show that circulates as a SBD source (really really need 5/23 and 5/24 SBDs released - 5/24 was the final Wheel and Drum > Space > Wheel was freaking amazing.) So I was on the rail for 5/23. And that too was truly a good show - the Want To Tell > Estimated in that upload is excellent. Felt like Jerry played I Want To Tell You for me or rather as an expression of where I was at - I was going through a break up and was in a place where I was at a loss for words (at the time I didn't even know they occasionally covered Want To Tell). During the Estimated jam Jerry locked eyes with me and "asked" what I wanted him to play and I replied I didn't know and so he kept jamming out Estimated - missed opportunity. He seemed in good spirits and relative health during that run. When I saw him 7/9 from 16th row center (by chance back in Chicago area visiting family and brother had extra ticket) Jerry was a different man, seemingly much heavier and very weary, bearing the weight of the world. . . . My apology for the repeated digressions from the simple fact that Cal Expo ' 91 was fun times!

... having attended all three. : ))

However, the Archive element at this site lists these Rex Foundation shows as "without" Bruce, as opposed to "with".
IIRC, it was the August trio (my last three attended) for which Bruce was not present. Those are also excellent - and any amount of either run that could be released as a DP would be most welcome!
