That One and The Other One

Spent some time with both Spring 90 box sets over the past few weeks. Must admit, I'm appreciating them more now than I did before, especially The Other One.

I'll also admit it was prompted by my son listening to the Spring 90 sampler on Spotify in his room (not a bad turn for a kid who used to call the Dead his old man's "old man music").

I always feel like I'm rediscovering this band. Part of what I love so much about them.

Newport Jazz Festival 1970

Ike and Tina Turner Review also performed the same night as Nina Simone. I remember a black man say as Nina was taking the stage , “I have to stand up for Nina Simone!”
I remember some interview with Pigpen around that time commenting on Ike and Tina Turner, “ They ain’t no slouches”.
Grateful Dead Movie. Taller than others around me , denim cowboy shirt, shoulder length dark hair. Three one second shots. Also in Sunshine Daydream . Too hard to explain. Add Grateful Days about the Springfield Creamery. Also in Deadheads, a short and entertaining film about fans of the Grateful Dead. That should give you enough clues to figure it out.

Wise Words

“ the Grateful Dead are shamans of the highest order”.

Could be the smartest thing I heard this year.

btw, I took the liberties of putting the complete 5/15/70 in order using the best possible recordings available. The same for 5/2, but it was much easier to do. If anyone wants a copy, you know where to reach me..

Now.. time to begin some serious home improvement projects. Yuk to start, sort of fun halfway through and assuming I do a good job (is there any doubt), years of satisfaction on the back end.

Happy Saturday all.. Perhaps I should check into the what's playing today page before I venture out. :D

Nina Simone & NRPS

I wonder how often those two have been mentioned together?

STRIDER 88: Wow man.. Nina Simone Newport Jazz Festival '70 would love to hear more about that!
Keep em coming.
BTW I've been meaning to ask you, Plaid shirt GD Movie '74 PITB Reprise?

In Regards to NRPS - You gotta check out 5/2/70 & 5/15/70 good SBDs on Archive.org Legendary GD stuff and IMO best NRPS.

Dead & Company 7/6/19 (last ?)

While returning home from Boulder last summer I spoke to my friends about the possibility of the end of an era. As in surviving band members and mortality. This also holds true for any of us. There were times at Dead concerts in the 80s and 90s when the music became almost elastic or the stretching of time and space. Or an illusion of timelessness. But sometimes I would wonder during those moments about the health of Jerry in regards to the finite nature of existence. There are two songs I’ve listened to recently that really hit home, Beware of Darkness and All Things Must Pass, from one of the all time great solo albums ever created. I speak of George Harrison. Amazing that a person of such fortune and fame had such insight.
In the past few weeks my neighbor has had a nest of birds (flycatchers) build the nest, lay the eggs, hatch out, grow with blinding speed , learn to fly , and leave the nest. Nature in a microcosm of beauty and grace. ( human value projection)
My last live music events were on February 1st and 2nd a few months ago. During the day of the 1st I was at the Tohono O’odham Nation Fair west of Tucson and heard Carl and Buddies. Waila Music of the Pima and O’odham Tribes is awesome. Then on the evening of the 2nd I drove from Sells up to the the Musical Instrument Museum in Scottsdale to see the amazing contemporary Inuktitut throat singer Tanya Tagaq perform who was born and raised in Churchill Bay, Canada. I had the great honor to meet her backstage after the concert. Having read her amazing book “Split Tooth” created a positive connection. I’ve only seen two other female performers in concert that commanded all the elements in such a profound manner, Grace Slick at two different Jefferson Airplane concerts , May 3, 1970 at the Central Park Band Shell and then later that year in November at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester. The third person I must include was seeing Nina Simone perform at the Newport Jazz Festival in summer of 1970. Tanya Tagaq , Nina Simone and Grace Slick are with out a doubt the most powerful Woman singers I’ve had the sheer luck to have seen perform. They had the electrifying ability to transform the listener into realms outside of everyday mundane existence.
The Grateful Dead also had/have the ability to transport people to a higher place of liberation of the spirit. An old buddy of mine once said years back “ the Grateful Dead are shamans of the highest order”. And at the same time just regular people.
So if the last concert I ever experience in life was from Tanya Tagaq I sure as hell got my spiritual battery fully charged.
“All I know is something like a bird within her sang and then flew on.”

*RE/ NRPS NEW RELEASE AVAILABLE Right NOW

https://stores.portmerch.com/newridersofthepurplesage/field-trip-cd.html
Recorded Live to 16-Track at Temple Meadow in Veneta, Oregon.

With Billboard magazine hailing the New Riders Of The Purple Sage as “the definitive band of the country-rock genre,” 1972 was a year of major growth for the band. By the time Summer rolled around, Buddy Cage was now firmly entrenched as Jerry Garcia’s replacement on pedal steel guitar and their second studio album, Powerglide, was getting rave reviews. On the live front, they were beginning to fill concert halls across the U.S. while continuing to emerge from the shadows of the Grateful Dead with an intoxicating mix of classic and original American songwriting from the worlds of country, rock, bluegrass, and soul.

August 27, 1972 found the New Riders once again on the bill with the Grateful Dead for what turned out to be one of the more legendary events in this subculture’s history. On the grounds of what is now the Oregon Country Faire, Chuck Kesey (brother of author and Merry Prankster icon Ken Kesey) put together this benefit concert, which quickly became known as the “Field Trip,” for the local Springfield Creamery. As fellow Prankster Ken Babbs recalls, “no one ever suspected it would become a historic event with an attendance of 20,000 on the hottest day ever—they ran out of water, the guitars warped in the heat and now everyone you talk to, hundreds of thousands, were there on that all time greatest most spectacular day.”
Taken off the original 16-track master tapes, Field Trip is a crystallized moment in time-capturing all the elements of the day along with the thumping and driving energy of a smokin’ set delivered by the New Riders. Early versions of “Groupie,” “Whiskey” and “Linda” are offered, along with a blazing “Whatcha Gonna Do.” Once again, the band kicks out the jams with bassist Dave Torbert leading the way on the Ray Charles classic “I Don’t Need No Doctor” and “Willie And The Hand Jive.”

2020, the lost year

I have tickets to several gigs, I am not holding much hope for any of them.. and if they happened, I am not sure I would go either.

The lost year. I guess what's important is that we keep everything in perspective and try our best to stay healthy and happy.

Don't be embarrassed by your top five. Mine suck too, compared to the glory days. But, they were far better than anything else out there at the time. More importantly, they got you where you are today.

Top 5 Shows Attended

As a guy who even missed the Touch of Grey era, my list is a little embarrassing compared to the others. But even coming along as late as I did, I always felt very fortunate to have seen them on a handful of nights where they really seemed to catch lighting in a bottle. I also got to see Jerry's triumphant return (part 2) in Denver and the last 3 Shoreline shows and others...but musically these five were the magical ones.

8/16/91 Shoreline (1st set Dark Star at my first show)
10/31/91 Oakland Coliseum (Dark Star & Ken Kesey tribute to Bill Graham)
6/25/92 Soldier Field, Chicago, IL (Schoolgirl & much of 2nd set with Steve Miller & James Cotton)
5/26/93 Cal Expo, Sacramento, CA (Road Trips Vol.2, #4)
5/27/93 Cal Expo, Sacramento, CA (Road Trips Vol.2, #4)

NOVEMBERELEVEN/ 8/16/91 Shoreline

I was at this show, the Dark Star/Promised Land is one of my favorite Grateful Dead moments. This show was a rocker and could easily be a Dave's Pick.

Gerhard

no show yet. Still waiting.
I've been to my favoured biergarten this afternoon in H. near FO and I've just returned home.
No information and no disc in the mailbox.
Got me some Hebendanz Anna Fest Bier. Might be helpful for the waiting time.
Enjoy

Wow!! See what happens when you have fat fingers?? I was trying to type in DEADVIKES, and missed it.
Yes, I did mean Dick’s Picks. There are no Dave’s available.
LoveMyGirl—I want to get excited about what you have to announce, but there’s a level of incoherence that prevents me from getting excited.
I am excited about Workingman’s Dead 50th, as well as Dave’s 35. I’m hoping for a good, Covid free summer.
Be safe all!!

Love My Girl.....

I think It's Obvious that we expect news shortly seeing that we are one month away from the next Dave's Picks release and tis the season for a fall box release and the announcement usually comes at this time of year. I have to agree with MR ONES about your "your level of Incoherence that prevents me from getting excited"

NOVEMBERELEVEN/ 8/16/91 Shoreline

Billy, I didn't have anything to compare it too, but I can confirm the folks on the lawn went ape shit! The Jack Straw -> Bertha opener was also great (sans the Phil loose string sounding bass) and the Scarlet -> Victim -> Fire was quite nice as well.

The longtime Head who sort of hosted a bunch of us at the show had moved from Colorado a decade earlier, basically to see the Dead more often. Around 93 or 94 I asked him for some of his favorite attended shows (he'd seen a few hundred), so I might repay his kindness with some tapes. He said my first two of 8/16/91 and 10/31/91 were as good as any he'd seen. Whether he was just being lazy, nice or couldn't remember at the time, I still considered it lucky to have jumped in with those two shows. Hell, 2 Dark Stars if nothing else....

Top five attended....neat!

Sorry gratefulgerd,

RSD and the next big thing

I have just had a check, and notice that 5/9/77 on vinyl will finally be released on 24th October. Wonder what the world will look like then? If you go back 4 months, both coronavirus and Black Lives Matter were off most people's radar. Then...boom! Hopefully we will all still be around in 4 months to see what happens next.

Upcoming releases

I don’t have a crystal ball and I don’t know anyone with inside information so I will wait and see what appears. However, amazon.com ( not .co.uk) shows that cd versions of ‘The Grateful Dead’ and ‘Anthem of the Sun (1971 remix) will be issued on 28th August and, as mentioned by LMG, a vinyl version of ’Skeletons ...’ will be issued on 4th September, all by Grateful Dead Records. Amazon do not give any further details so I’m unaware of the track listings and don’t know if they include any extras.
I can't imagine needing any of these reissues and wonder why the first two albums are being issued again so soon after the 50th anniversary discs.
Looking forward to DaP #35 but I hope everyone will have got #34 soon.

Jerry Garcia interview 4/8/67

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FMj8LCgcS2c

UK Album chart...

For those of us that actually give a shit about charts, this week's UK album chart has Bob Dylan at #1 with "Rough and Rowdy Ways" and Neil Young at #2 with "Homegrown". His bobness, at 79, is the oldest artist to reach #1 with an album of new material. Even if you don't give a shit about charts, it is somewhat surprising to see these two topping the charts in 2020.

Dylan and Young

I don't want to take anything away from the absolute greatness that is Bob Dylan, and to a lesser extent Neil Young, but I think it also speaks to the dearth of good new popular music out there. Yes, there are great up and coming rock and roll bands and yes there is phenomenal music being created today, but you have to work much harder to find it these days. I'm sure it has a lot to do with how technology has changed and the music business in general, but despite all that, where are all the can't miss bands putting out great new music that isn't overly derivative?

Hits and misses

Is this the first time Bob Dylan has had a number one album in the UK, I wondered ? I don't know, but I would think that his last three or four self penned albums were more likely to have hit the coveted spot than any of his 60s albums.

Going back to upcoming releases, there was also 8/21/68 that was due to come out earlier this year, with a free comic thrown in. Seems to have got lost in the rush, that one.

New Material...

...the Neil Young Homegrown album is material recorded between 1974 and 1975, not exactly new unless you are working off a really long time frame.

GERHARD, that's funny. I was…

GERHARD, that's funny. I was also having a few beers in the city of ER yesterday. And finally, today was the day I could pick up my DaP 34 (shipping notice said 04/30). Still no sign of the "June 1976" box set (shipping notice 04/08). I am sure the good people from customer service will sort that out, too. But to be honest, this whole waiting game has become just too much for me. I don't think I'll order from dead.net anymore. Of course I'm aware of the current situation all around the world. And I'm truly blessed because Covid-19 has not hit my family and I don't have to worry about losing my job. However, shipping times have grown longer and longer, extra costs have to be paid (today it was 11,20 €, I have no idea why - never had to pay tax for a Dave's Picks, just for the bigger box sets).
Anyway, it's the weekend and I'm sure I'll enjoy Jai-Alai Fronton. Also looking forward to GarciaLive 14 - made me listen to that old "Pure Jerry" single CD release on my way to work this morning, what a sweet duo show that is. Couldn't get hold of GarciaLive 13 but they usually hit the record shops here in Germany sooner or later. And then there's that complete 1971 show coming with WD 50th. Lovely releases ahead.

OK, I'm a little late to this party, but I could not resist. So I thought about the shows which first got me on the bus. There are plenty of other great shows I saw in many great locations, which made them memorable, also: Frost, the Greek, Cal Expo, Red Rocks, but here goes:

12/31/71 Winterland - My first show

8/24/72 Berkeley Community Theater - tripping at the back of the floor, Dark Star>Morning Dew, that did it I was on the bus

2/24/74 Winterland - the wall of sound in all it's glory

12/31/77 Winterland

10/31/83 Marin Civic Auditorium - We had great seats 10 rows center from the stage, great show

So many shows.....

Nite Cat/ 5 shows

*RE/ Daverock & 1968!

Hey David, 1968 will be released 7/31
The printing company closed shop over four , five months ago due to virus. Yes, the printing company was the first Party to take a step back and cause delays in the final release date.
Printing is complete and absolutely beautiful!! Records have been pressed and labeled! Get ready to party with the greatest juvenile delinquents on the western! hemisphere, the Grateful Dead! 🙏❤️💀🌹
Have a grateful day everyone, peace be with you all my Brothers and sisters!
*** I never talk about the Garcia releases because that’s not my department but I had to say , Garcia 14 acoustic release! 1986, and it’s a home run! Primo!
...Also I’m not surprised Dylan is number 1 &. Neil Young is 2! They Have both played rock ‘n’ roll on the moon an other outer space mission’s! Lol

Origins...

Not going to fall into that marketing trap. $100 for a book I don't need that has 38 minutes of an unreleased live show thrown in to help to sell it. By the time international shipping, import duty and sales tax have all been added it would cost me around $150 and I'm just not prepared to pay that much for so little. Sorry but I'm not in on this one. Frankly I would rather they concentrated on getting the music to us rather than trying to separate us from our money with unnecessary and overpriced merchandise. Workingman's dog coat anyone?

Dogon & Mosaic Records

Curse you Dogon! You had to show me the world of Mosaic Records! Damn, Damn, Damn!

I'm a recovering limited box set collector and you hook me up with the Scarface of Box pushers!?!

Lots of nice boxes there, thanks for the name. Have a shortcut on desktop now to the website. Have to head out now. Luckily its the end of the month and the old folks will be getting the social security checks in the mail. Should be able to order some of these boxes soon!

Ha..

The Scarface of all box pushers. I might have to check that out myself.

Mosaic box set/ T Bone Walker 1940 to 1954

I have the Complete Recordings of T. Bone Walker from 1940 to 1954 on Mosaic, came out in 1990. They don't carry it at Mosaic anymore, but you can still get it on the secondary market at a reasonable price, CD or lp. It's a knockout!

Billy the Kid & T-Bone

I have the complete Imperial Recordings 50-54.

Too much stuff

I hear ya Simon Rob. I’m only getting it cause the Mrs is a book junkie and went ahead and just ordered it. I’m sure I’ll enjoy it once or twice, but not really a comix guy. I’m with you, just release the music, like the whole dam vault ala carte already. Yes some recordings will sound lesser than others but so what, that’s called choice....remember when Mickey was talking about that along with the Terrapin museum etc, something about we hope to have it so you could put your order in upon arrival and we’ll have it ready before you leave.

EDIT: sorry Dennis, lol, your probably like the misses “there’s no such thing as too much” for her with books and you with box sets etc 😉

No man is rich enough to buy back his past

You know where to find me...……………

Rock on,

Origins...

LMG - thanks for the heads up, I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Simon....I wouldn't buy it off Deadnet, for all the reasons you mention. I was under the impression it would be available from Amazon UK-which might not be much better for you. I have just had a look, and it does seem a bit pricey even there-over £30. 00. Prices on Amazon are up and down more than I am...so I am going to keep a look out and see if it drops a bit in price before splashing out.

I am much more selective, generally, about buying Dead stuff than I was 10-or even 5 years ago. I have noticed I am more attracted to an expensive show on vinyl than a box set on cds from one of the years I am not so keen on. I no longer buy everything without thinking. That's just the music-I have never gone over board on the tee shirts etc-attractive though they look.

Billy the kid - Same shows

Billy I have a feeling you and I were at the same shows many times over the years in the bay area.

Someone mentioned the 12-12 -80 Swing show right after Lennon was killed, I was there and you could hear a pin drop during "he's gone", it was an incredibly moving performance.

I have to add 10/14/80 Warfield theater to my list, unforgetable for the champagne toast from the entire audience to the band when they returned for their encore.

God those were the days.

Origins

The version advertised on amazon.co.uk is the paperback version which doesn’t include the LP. When it was first announced in April 2019 the Relix magazine website said that the paperback would come with a download code for some early GD music, however looking at the Z2 comics website now there is no mention of any download code. I wonder if the paperback still includes any music? The hardback is limited to 6800 copies but even after more than a year it hasn’t sold out. I won’t be buying it.

1984 to 1968

Ive been in a GD 80s groove recently

Decided to check out 9 2 68 today

It's all GD...quite a contrast

July 10th approaches, good people. 2 21 71!

Second box will announced close to Christmas I predict

Mid October?

Charles Ford Band/ Gibson Creek Shuffle
