    I think that’s right lol
    Didn’t get the best listing in, but enough to appreciate more of this consistent 1990 greatness!

    Oh yeah, 12/4 before, so another DHB wee!

    5-22-77, Nice clean pressing.
    Why do the lower frequencies sound so much better on vinyl? Drums and bass both. Phil sounds so good. This Sugaree is monumental!
    Rainy so far here Oro.

    Half way through the first and really nice!
    Hot Jack opener!

    12/3 was good, but I don’t recall any real standouts one way or another…

    6/17/94: BC, BUMMER! Dooode I thought Seattle was decent, and the 2 Autzens you saw were good, but 6/17…that’s gotta be in top ten for the year!
    Sorry, That’s gotta still hurt ; )

    Nice/interesting tales DR. My cousin would say “little bit of something better than all of nothing”.
    So you caught one of the tours best in good shape, then that awesome H/S/F and a good set, but, Not Loose Lucy was having none of it (bummer), so you missed a good second set with less than optimum JG voice, but you got to experience 11/1 and most especially DS on veggies…it’s like one of those CC ads:
    Tix 100
    Subway 20
    Supplies 50
    Annoying GF X
    Playin>Jam>DS> Killer D/S>DS>Playin…Priceless!

    I spent 17 years chasing that kinda goodness lol
    I’d say you did pretty well.
    Onward! (Wonder how many times I’ll have to shovel today? Lol)

    That sounds like a pretty good description of me when The Dead came to Wembley in 1990 ! I was lucky to catch all three shows, and of those the one I enjoyed the most was the first - 10/30/90. I went on my own and didn't ingest anything stronger than a couple of pints - maybe that helped.
    It was an amazing scene to me outside the stadium, with all the vendors selling their wares. Inside was great too, milling around. I was right near the front in the stalls - after all these years of listening to The Dead and reading about them- there they were, in person , within shouting distance. Songs which stood out were Row Jimmy Row ( not a song I like at home), Built to Last - which had a lot more substance than the recorded version, and Black Peter - quite something seeing Jerry sing this close up.
    It was a buzz when they started up Lovelight, too. I had probably never heard a version of this post Pigpen, so the mere fact of them playing something off Live Dead was reward in itself. Weird phone calls seemed to come out of the amps during this song. They are transcribed in the Taping Compendium, which was quite re-assuring to read. Proof I hadn't imagined it!

    The following night I was joined by Lady Macbeth, as my dad called my girlfriend, and trouble followed. We arrived as they were playing H-S-F, and they seemed to have more energy than the previous night. But we left after the first set. The third night I was back on my tod, and decided to take some mushrooms. And got lost on the way there due to one of the tube stations being closed. I still arrived on time, but I started tripping on the London underground which was a bit...challenging. I was up in the balcony this night, to the right of the stage. The sound was really bad - what I heard was anyway. The piano sounded too loud and the guitars too quiet. The highlight of this night was Space- Drums.

    I agree that, of the shows I have heard from this tour, the one released in 30 Trips - Paris 10/27/90 - is the best. Playing now as I type.

    Set II, begins "in the pouring rain", only Autzen night show(?) or was it an afternoon show on a Friday which is why I couldn't make it down from Seattle? Anyhoo, sure wish I'd been there - saw the 2 shows in Seattle before and then the 2 Autzen shows after this (last time they played there).

    Rain > Eyes > Samba > Saint > D/S > Wheel > Attics > Throwing > Not Fade Away

    no circulating sbd - can anybody fix that : ) - source is the Paul B audience transfer - sweet pull

    I am listening to 10/31/90 in the car over several days

    Poor Jerry's voice

    but again

    I don't listen to GD for the vocals

    took a chance and played Scarlet Fire from 3/10/81 for my son last night and emphasized the peak toward the end of Fire

    he appreciates the musicianship and respects the GD
    I consider that a win

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!).
