Grateful Dead

That IS the first time I've seen you post a last 5 Jimbo. I'm always game for hearing what everyone is spinning.

Jeff Smith - always nice to hear from you buddy.

Sixtus - I'll second the emotion on some Other One dissection.

Charlie3 - you have me looking forward to The Other One on 4/11 Newcastle. If it's somebody's favorite oh, it's got to be good. The Other One is the single most difficult song for me to recall from show to show on Europe 72. Everything else on E72 I can pretty much remember the great ones from the really really f****** awesome ones. For E72 Other Ones, I pretty much recall 4/21 & 4/26. You may Wonder how I was able to obtain a PhD in Europe 72 considering that circumstance, however my dissertation was on Dark Star, Openers, and Lovelights; and of course I did case studies on Mid-length Jams and Infrequently Played Numbers; my short essay was Stage Banter and Other Exciting Moments. You can see how I got by with so little memory of all those Other Ones.

4/11 rolling now. This one gets better every time I listen to it.

(my first ever last five).. :D

I've been listening to the White Album 50th anniversary re-issue and I think it sounds great. I read somewhere that Ringo said he could finally hear his drums in the mix. There is also a cool cd of demos the beatles recorded at George's house just with acoustic guitars. These are early demos of the White Album songs, it's pretty cool to hear their raw beginnings.

I just downloaded this from I-tunes today and am listening to it now. I give it a hearty thumbs up! A great addditon to the Garcia acoustic/bluegrass catalog.
I avoided it when it first came out because on Itunes it lists "Garcia on banjo" for only a couple of songs. This is misleading, as Garcia is present the whole show, and adding plenty of very tasty banjo licks on every tune. Dave Nelson and Frank Wakefield also sound great and the sound is very good, to my ears.

and based on what I've heard there's some interesting stuff, like especially in the extras and outtakes and stuff. At least if I'm thinking of the same thing. I've heard a few tracks and liked them. Dunno if they're streaming anywhere.

...anyone here have the 50th anniversary remixes of the Beatles White Album and Sgt. Peppers or know how they sound? Came across them while browsing for discs recently, kind of curious what the remix sounds like but not sure I need another copy of either.
Not really doing E'72 in order or anything, but I did listen to that 4/11/72 Newcastle show today. Really can't go wrong with anything from E'72, but that Newcastle Other One is a favorite of mine.

Another one I will be looking out for is Gong Live at The Bataclan 1974. This one isn't listed in the British releases. It seems that different countries have different titles coming out-the Gong is a French release, so the chances of it pitching up in Norwich on Saturday may be pretty slim.

Actually, the chances of me pitching up in Norwich are a bit hit and miss, too. The only time I have ever gone to a record shop on RSD was about 5 years ago, and as there was a huge queue to get in, I didn't bother.

Obvious? Garcia on banjo, the Dylan, John Lennon. Off the beaten path? Jeff Tweedy-Warmer. Pink Floyd - Mono (I'm on the fence. I've never heard it. Thoughts?). Otis Redding @ Monterey Pop. The original had Hendrix on side A, this has Booker T & the MG's. I already own the original w/Hendrix. Jazz? How bout Art Ensemble or Fela/Ayers. Of course I may also have to get acoustic Dead from '80.

Thanks Jeff, I did find it under the label, but it is cheaper and ships for free on AMZ if anyone else is interested.

A 2 LP version titled "Drink Up And Go Home: Live At Margarita's Cantina, Feb. 20 & 21, 1975" will be released on RSD19 this coming Saturday.

Sort of confusingly, the 2 CD version (released last year?) is just called "Live". It includes "Drink Up & Go Home" with Jerry on lead vocals. Amazon has the CD:
