    started by Lopezz Ok, I dug this stuff out for you marye. Go Ahead was a side band for Brent Mydland and Billy Kreutzmann. I have a few recordings from 86-88. I have put the best of the lot on cd's. (sorry no flac files this time) Also in this vine is a Brent Mydland solo from 7-10-1988. It is a very clear audience recording. Brent's volcals are kind of soft, but there is no hiss or other obnoxious noises and sounds fine turned up loud. Still, I would recommend listening to Brent's solo in head phones or a car to really appreciate it. This will be 7 cd's in all. Brent Mydland 7-10-1988 01. Love Doesn't Have To Be Pretty 02. Maybe You Know 03. Musician (Not An Easy Life) 04. Gentlemen Start Your Engines 05. I Will Take You Home 06. Devil With The Blue Dress On -> 07. Good Golly Miss Molly -> 08. Devil With The Blue Dress On Go Ahead: Brent Mydland- keyboards Billy Kreutzmann- drums Alex Ligetwood- vocals, percussion David Margen- bass Jerry Cortez- guitar My Fathers Place, Roslyn

    I just mailed this out
    to Stephen in PA. If you like Brent's vocals you will like Go Ahead, I would say he sings at least half the songs on these shows. The Graffiti Showcase, Pittsburgh, PA 10-29-1986 shows are the best, great versions of The Weight, and Shes Not There.

    if this is the BCT SEVA show
    One issue that probably affects the vocals is that the crowd was pretty rude and talked through his whole set. I was FURIOUS, as they would never behave that way when Jer was onstage (as he later was, and the Dead set from the same show, which as I recall was some bandmember and friends on the billing, was very nice). I'm sure Brent had to deal with worse crowds, but STILL. As for Go Ahead, great bar band...

A little confused ...i found this burried on page 12 ... but there are two recent posts from yesterday. It looks like this one is going to start moving again (?) Anyway, if it is, thank you to brother tom for keeping it safe, JakeR, Zepthompson and drkstr4588 for breathing new life into it, and That Nice Hippy Guy for starting it. (he's so nice) Peace, Chris

I've got it in my dropbox in itunes format, and I can share the link with somebody to get this revived if we can figure out a way to make that work.
