    GoGD DaP 51, disc 2 including '70 Kiel Auditorium filler ... I know some have trouble with the sound on this. But once past the fluctuations in Truckin' (I just lower the volume for that stretch), the Good Lovin' that follows is Super Sweet and worth your time. Will hit up the Pittsburgh slice again soon

    On now: Groove-a-licious (!) 06.17.76 Capitol Theater, Passaic, NJ to prepare for the upcoming DaP shipment

    Cheers, All

    Istshow - cheers, I'll give that DP 18 a listen with that in mind. It isn't a track I associate with 1976, so I was quite surprised when I saw what 18 was. It was one of those tracks where the double drum set up really worked well.

    My heart goes out to all those affected by the wildfires in California. Just listened to the service for Jimmy Carter. What an extraordinary man of great character. Garth and Trisha sung Imagine. Beyond words for me, grew up in the DC area eons ago, connections are strong still. Family had involvement with the building and services at the National Cathedral, I arranged for my high school Humanities Class to visit while still under construction in 1969, our class was allowed to go all the way up on top on one of the main towers where with a couple friends, discreetly lit up a joint. Literally the highest point in the city. A college friend and I had a tour of the White House later on during the hostage crisis under the Carter admin, the secret service were everywhere. Watching the motorcade and hearse travel from the Capital to the National Cathedral down roads I have travelled almost all my life, have my ticket stub from the 1961 Inauguration, was an usher for the Congressional Medal of Honor section next to the Presidential Box for the January 20, 1969 Inauguration in full dress Eagle Scout uniform. Not to get political, same time went down to massive Viet Nam war demonstrations to take photos , realized the power of media because the camera meant I could go almost anywhere. Still special to go to the National Gallery last month to see Mr. Sun and have Grant Gordy ask me where DaVinci's Ginvera de Benci was, like I knew.

    A 2 CD compilation of ambient recordings released by Earth Ear back ca. 1999. 24 tracks of amazing, beautiful soundscapes representing a wild range of locations and sources, primarily in nature but at times cultural. Gorgeous and fascinating. Earth Ear was a non-profit(?) dedicated to ambient recordings, releasing a handful of their own and providing a market place for a large and diverse number of ambient recordists. I found my copy at Dr. Wax on N. Clark in Chicago, on a visit to the home country shortly after it was released. As it turns out, a gift from the gods. I love it.

    That Samson & Delilah on DiP18 has that same dirt kicking feel. It's the one where Bob's mike isn't working in one of those unexpected beginning of the 2nd set sound issues and Jerry has to improvise for quite a while until they get it working. Someone described Jerry aiming his guitar neck at the roadies and doing a machine gun run at them. Even with the very extended intro Jerry still has great solos undiminished by the unexpected event. Fixing it on the fly! Both of these are in my top five S. & D.
    Cheers
    Oro - Denver vs. Buffalo, whoda thunk it. I did not recognize the team that shut out KC last week.

    Eugene Oregon 1/22/78 - a great record ! Or records, I should say. Many great versions of songs - one that isn't often recommended is Samson and Delilah. This one will put some dirt in your eye. Kicking.

Currently rewatching Couch Tour of the Austin show. Charlotte, Austin, how lucky you were!! Some great shows this tour. Never was in a position to follow the band thru tours. Had to pick my shows. The couch Tour is pretty great, especially for an old guy. Hope this isn’t wrong. Not trying to promote or advertise them, but thrilled to see every show of a tour, so conveniently.

AOXOMOXOA 50th anniversary disc 1- 1969 original mix

This entire production is first class, from the 3D cover (a la rolling stones satanic majesty) which I certainly would have appreciated staring at back in the day, it is truly wonderous.
The sound is perfect, the live stuff sounds better than ever, but really should use the original shows complete, in the order that the Dead created them.

Listening to Good morning little schoolgirl by the Dead and comparing it to Ten Year After version...well, what to say, as much as I dig Alvin Lee (RIP), I MUST say that Jerry's version has more soul to it. Great cover by the Dead (off their debut album!).
