18,000 happy Dead Heads could not be wrong. Deer Creek, my how you deliver.

We're closing the books on DAVE'S PICKS 2021 with not one but two - nearly - complete shows from Noblesville, IN 7/18/90 & 7/19/90. Yes, we've packed it all on four CDs, save for that second night encore which we promise you'll get to hear in the very near future. Sometimes there really is just too much good stuff.

For now, we'll invite you to cozy up with two exceptional back-to-back shows, shows with precision and clarity, shows with more than a lion's share of exploratory jams, and most importantly, shows that were simply a damn good time for all. Highlights from night one include the bookends of a spectacular "Help>Slip!>Franklin's" and an epically intricate "Morning Dew" followed by a classic cover of "The Weight." Night two, is the sleeper hit, with flawless playing from start to finish, the set list inviting you to find new favorites in top-notch renditions of "Foolish Heart" or "Victim Or The Crime," and if that's not one of the finest versions of "Desolation Row" Bobby ever did do! We would be remiss if we didn't mention that these shows were among Brent's last and they are some of his finest of the era at that.

Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOL. 40: DEER CREEK MUSIC CENTER, NOBLESVILLE, IN 7/18 & 19/90 was recorded by Dan Healy and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

10/21/78

Collectors of Deadbase will notice that the immortal Dick LATVALA wrote an incredible review of 10/21/78, since DB volume 2 (still seeking DB volume 1) for years this tape always circulated as a very good AUD until the summer of 1995 when very HQ SBD's of the entire run From Egypt with Love shows finally hit tape trading lists while the meat of the show was officially released as RT Volume 1 #4 this entire show deserves the full Norman in fact I feel this whole run would make a most excellent choice for a box set 10/22 with Cippolina is just as good. Another show from 1978 that deserves "better" treatment is 11/20 Cleveland Music Hall, David Gans (GDH) featured the 2nd set (GDH 406) albeit in less than stellar quality in fact I've never heard a HQ recording of this show. While I'm on a 1978 kick does anyone have a 1st set SBD TAPE oF 5/5/78? Yes I still listen to tapes.

Ron Wood, All Things and Friar Park...

BigBrownie, thx! Just ordered that album. I'm a nut for Jimmy Reed.

DdHdBrewer, glad to hear I purchased the correct remix!! That's a helluva record and much better than either Paul or John's first LPs after the Beatles.

JimInMD, you gotta read Al Kooper's book sometime, Backstage Passes and Backstabbing Bastards. George hires him to play on an album and has a henchman meet him at the gate to Friar Park, then leads him through the underground passages and grottoes in near darkness, when George leaps out of a doorway and screams and Kooper (in my imagination) soils himself. George gets rightly bashed for being a bit preachy and gloomy, but apparently he had a wicked sense of humor. Glad you, um, "embrace the gnomes."

P.S. I think it's the 12-31-78 closing of Winterland when Lee Oscar -- who I suspect had been dosed -- wouldn't or couldn't stop blowing his harp and the band was ready to move on. Check the video! Ken Kesey virtually pirouettes across the stage and, drawing on his wrestling heritage no doubt, body hugs Lee Oscar and spins away with him in his embrace. Most effective stage management for harp-player-on-acid that I've seen on film.

I'm Just In It For the Garden Gnomes

As for the bookmark made from English Oak.. I sometimes take red or white oaks from my property and use them to propagate and grow shitakes. If anyone needs a bookmark made of Quercus rubra or Quercus alba that felled from my estate.. it's yours for a buck, just send me a PM. It will be in the shape of a dollar sign.

But seriously.. the garden gnomes, that's where it's at. He had some really cool ones and it got me to research the history of the estate he lived on since 1970. I want that house.. can someone help me set up a go fund me? I'm sure most Harrison fans already knew this, but it was new to me.

Per Wikipedia:

"Friar Park is a Victorian neo-Gothic mansion in Henley-on-Thames, England, built in 1889. It was originally owned by eccentric lawyer Sir Frank Crisp and purchased in January 1970 by musician, and then current member of The Beatles, George Harrison.[1] The site covers about 62 acres (25 hectares).[2][3] Features include caves, grottoes, underground passages, a multitude of garden gnomes, and an Alpine rock garden with a scale model of the Matterhorn.[4]"

I'm not including the references, that would just piss off Crapatcha.

All Things Must Pass--you NEED the new mix

I asked you that question, Hendrix, and then I later thought, "Duh. I have a subscription to Qobuz, a hi-rez streaming service." I remembered this fact at some point late last night, went there, and sure enough, there was the Super Deluxe version of All Things, right next to a copy of the 2014 remaster. So I pulled out my CD of the 2001 remaster and the headphones went on for some intense comparisons.

Wow. This is a reMIX, not just a remaster, so the levels can actually change from the original we all know and love, and they have. George's voice is now prominent, rather than fighting its way through Spector's soundwall (we'll reserve the term "Wall of Sound" for other use), there is now some audible bass guitar, and the other guitars are not so biting and up front. It DOES change the sound of the album, but to me, it's a marked improvement. It sounds like some Plangent Processing happened too, as my ears don't detect as much wow and flutter as on the older versions.

Instead of the guitars and Spectorisms being 7's (on a scale of 1-10) in the mix, with George's voice being a 4, and the bass being a 3, they all come in around the 5 mark, with more air ("heavy air"?) around them.

If you love this album, you'll surely want to hear this remix. You might decide that you really love the sound it used to have from your memory, but the whole thing now sounds more natural, like a Harrison album that Spector enhanced, rather than a Spector album that had George and the bassist sitting off to the side, hoping to get picked up by the microphones. There is a two-CD version for about $16, if you don't need all the alternate material.

We now return you to your regularly-scheduled GD chat, already in progress.

10/21/78 - Freddie King

Great show indeed, Billy. Didn't expect the white-robed singers/tambourine shakers. A friend of my wife who didn't do any mind-altering substances freaked out in the middle of Stella Blue, whispered in my ears that a coupla' Hell's Angels were standing right behind us...turned around, sure enough they were there and looked so big they were like a couple of mountains, and somehow that made me laugh; he was terrified, told him to settle down and let us enjoy the show; that was his 1st and last show. Angels were a fixture at Winterland and at Jerry shows, always peaceful.

Freddie King: I believe he was the most technically proficient electric Blues player of his time; great technique playing with his thumb and index. Check out the original versions of Hideaway and The Stumble on King Records, some intricate fingering in there. Jerry did a very credible Hideaway for the Harding Theatre 11/7/71 show.

Anniversary show 10/21/78 Winterland

43 years ago today I was at Winterland to see the Grateful Dead. Great Stella Blue, Lee Oskar sat in the 2nd set on harmonica. Great opening jam to start the first set into Promised Land. Dick Latvala had high praise for this show. I believe Cousins and some other folks on this forum were at this show.

Down two goals late in the 2nd....

....switched goalies to fire up the team and won 5-4. Hockey is pretty cool. Broke Dallas's seven game win streak. I'll take it.
And the Kraken have very nice colors and logo. See you down the road.

50 years ago today…..

December 9, 1971
Fox Theater, St. Louis, Missouri

Set 1: Truckin'-Brown-Eyed Women-Mr. Charlie-Jack Straw-Sugaree-Beat It On Down The Line-It Hurts Me Too-Tennessee Jed-El Paso-Run Rudolph Run-Black Peter-Playing In The Band-Casey Jones-One More Saturday Night

Set 2: Ramble On Rose-Mexicali Blues-Big Boss Man-Sugar Magnolia-Not Fade Away>Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad>Not Fade Away

Deadicated to Rosie McGee, Ed Wolpov, Peter Corrigan, James Anderson, Michael Parrish, Ric Carter, and Alarmy.com, because I've been to too many dead concerts, there've been smokin' holes where my memory used to be…..

And now ladies and gentlemen here they are straight from Madison Square Garden in famous New York, the Grateful Dead!!!!

In retrospect this show suffers because it came right before the behemoth December 10 show. The first set is strong and has heartfelt versions of It Hurts Me Too and Black Peter. The second set is, well, short, but well played, and there’s no encore.

I thank TPTB for its official release………

Not a top tier show, but worth a listen…………..

Kinda rollin’ low………..

Rock on!!

Doc
Beauty, sweet love, is like the morning dew,
Whose short refresh upon tender green,
Cheers for a time, but till the sun doth show
And straight is gone, as it had never been…..

RIP John

I dug out "Let it be...Naked" the remix minus the Spector additions last night. Very enjoyable.

Thinking of John reminds me of the San Bernadino show 12-12-80 I attended days after John's death. In the second set, the band performed a heart-wrenching 'He's Gone', very touching.

In the middle of the final episode of Get Back....

....they do seem much more comfortable in Apple Studios. 🍎
Great stuff. Rooftop concert is upcoming and I CAN'T WAIT!!
Edit. Interviewer asked a random man on the street what he thought. "Its too loud and it's disrupting the business in the district."
Classic!!
The women get IT though.
"Everyone had a wet dream."
I just had one and I'm awake.

Encore: One More Saturday Night

This is deadicated to Kevin Kelly……………

The solid but somewhat unremarkable first set gives no clue of the upcoming super nova second set. Highlights include the great Good Lovin’ to open and the massive jam that closes the set. Another monster December 1971 show, and one that actually does get widespread love and respect. I am eternally grateful to TPTB for its official release. Savor it!

Ladies and gentlemen we have a loose frap………..

Rock on!!

yes, the "people in the street" interviews are great

That would be cool to be part of that history.

Most were ok with it, but that one guy has a microphone stand so far up his "exit" that you can see the mic holder.

Great stuff.

RIP Mike Nesmith

Just read of his death. Loved The Monkees’ and his post band albums were sublime.

Mike Nesmith

Sad news. He will probably be more respected for his solo career than the records he made with The Monkees-but I am not familiar with the later stuff. I have aways like those Monkees singles, though, and "Porpoise Song" is a psych classic.

Getting Antsy...

for DaP 41 in January. Had already forgotten the date so had to go back to the Seaside to be reminded. Baltimore 5-26-77 is my happy zone era but I don't want to spoil it by hearing it first on the Archive. So any opinions and superlatives? Dave seemed very high on this one putting it as one of four possibilities for DaP 1. One early DaP 40 post mentions the missing U.S. Blues encore as one of the better versions so glad it's getting on a CD quickly even if difficult to play in succession. Thanks and cheers!

Is there a Dead Head in the house?.....

A man goes to a pacific island for vacation. As the boat nears, he notices the constant sound of drumming. As he gets off the boat, he asks a native how long the drumming will go on. The native casts about nervously and says "very bad when drumming stops."

Later that day, the drumming is still going and it is really starting to get to him. So, he asks another native when the drumming will stop. The native looks as if he's just been spooked. "Very bad when drumming stops," he says, and hurries off.

After a couple of days with little sleep, the man has had enough. He grabs the first native he sees, slams him up against a tree, and shouts, "What happens when the drumming stops?!"

The native replies, "Bass solo."

Bass solo?

Not Space?

Dennis

Think Santa will bring you a record player this year?

Bass solos....

....check out when Phil sat in with Phish 9.17.99 Shoreline. Gordon and Lesh just dueling. Back to your regularly scheduled programming. I would linq it, but hey. Rules are rules. Despite lawyers and opportunists still sneaking in.

Anniversary show 12/12/81 Fiesta Hall

40 years ago today, I was at the San Mateo County Fairgrounds to see a benefit show called Dance for Disarmement. It was billed as Joan Baez and friends, Garcia & Weir were the only friends mentioned. The Dead backed Baez with an acoustic set, and then came out and played a great electric set. It was a very small venue,( Fiesta Hall), probably only 1 thousand people there.. I see Strider was there, anyone else make it there? Anyway, we all had a blast!

Speaking of Bass solos

When I saw Garcia & Grisman play at the Warfield Theatre, Grisman's bass player James Kerwin, did a killer bass solo on the song Arabia, really a knockout! The shows were super special, and should all be released.

Arabia

Hell yeah. Love that song and that whole band etc
We’re you at that awesome God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen they did (at the Warfield I think?) that’s on usetoob?
Cheese and Rice dood, you and Strider have bee at waaaay too many shows lol, lucky dogs!

Speaking of, where is ole Strider been hiding? Hope your all good Amigo! We miss ya round these parts!

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Yeah, I saw them do that song, the band was on fire, Garcia was really on top of things, playing as good as he ever had; then they ended the show with a knockout version of Ripple, with two mandolins, just like American Beauty.

The making of LIB and Get Back

For those interested in all the gear and decision making of LIB and Jackson's Get Back,
soundandvision dot com has a long detailed story.

Billy TK

Hey Billy, as I've commented before, we seem to have been at many of the same shows. I was at the Fiesta room for that sneak show with the Dead and Joan Baez.

I had Edwardsville IL 8 16 80 in the cue

before the tornado hit that area

Heard much of set one just now

Hopefully none of y'all got hit by that sh!t

I lived in WI early in life and have never heard of such a thing

But it is not unheard of by meteorologists

I do not miss WI.

Short Dark Star (I just accept it) that does go into Cosmic Charlie

Ha!

Just read your joke Dennis, made me laugh.

Vguy, saw your L.A. Woman 50th post. I got into them on FM radio growing up, then bought that double CD Best Of The Doors. Then the movie came out and they were huge in the early 90s on my college campus (and others I'm sure). Cover bands were all over the place - remember being drunk and stoned at The Flying Club watching a band do a good cover of The End. Anyway, I was watching a documentary on L.A. Woman a few years ago and discovered the song Hyacinth House, which was neither on my double CD nor an FM radio song. Wow. How that song was publicly ignored, I cannot guess, but IMHO it's better than a lot of tunes on that Best Of CD. Peace Frog from Morrison Hotel too, though a buddy of mine had that CD, so I didn't miss out on it.

Re: Ha

The Dennis quip was rather hilarious. Dead.net is one of the few things out there that provides relief and good vibes against the sea of trouble that is the rest of the world.

Hey Now!

Since there's been interest shown I'd like to say that tickets for The Tedeschi Trucks Band & Los Lobos go on sale for Red Rocks on December 17th....the shows are late July 2022...

Equipment check.

Not related to any conversation, but,

My kid showed me this video of a Yamaha RA 200 amp/spinning speaker. I know we have a lot of people here, who, to this guy sounds like they know their shit.

Is this thing really cool? Anyone have one?

I was wowed by it. Can rate of spin be dynamically changed while playing without delays. Or would you stop playing for second to speed up or slow down.

and...

also saw that "pre-sale" whatever that means is tomorrow the 14th for those shows

The TTB / Los Lobos Red Rocks shows....

....hit my feed this morning. They also announced additional dates, but nothing west coast. Seriously contemplating on going. Vacation days already approved.

Green Lake

Hey Proudfoot, I've looked for the old theatre around a Green Lake a few times but have never been able to find it. Do you know if it is still there, or if not where approx it used to stand?

Aqua Theater at Green Lake

it is the southwest corner; there is still a concrete grandstand there.

Think about where the rowing shells get put into the water, or where the golf greens are.

or just south of the homeless encampment/parked RVs

50 years ago today…..

December 14, 1971
Hill Auditorium, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan

Set 1: Truckin'-Sugaree-Mr. Charlie-Beat It On Down The Line-Loser-Jack Straw-Next Time You See Me-Tennessee Jed-El Paso-Big Railroad Blues-Me And My Uncle-Run Rudolph Run-Black Peter-Playing In The Band-Casey Jones

Set 2: Ramble On Rose-Mexicali Blues-Big Boss Man-Cryptical Envelopment>drums>The Other One>Wharf Rat-Sugar Magnolia-You Win Again-Not Fade Away>Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad>Not Fade Away

Deadicated to Charlie Miller---and other like-minded individuals such as Mr Bill, Sir Mick, GEMS, and Scott Clugston, because memory is the personal journalism of the soul…..

Is it just me? I have listened to this show 203,842 times (yes, I kept track) and it never fails to deliver. Inspired, intense, intoxicating, occasionally even baffling. How did they do it? Why did they do it? Who did they do it to? How many young minds were blown on this evening of delights? For me this show has attained mythic status……….

Dream like, yet firmly grounded in the reality of rock and roll. Rocking, yet soulful. Creamy smooth, yet nicely edgy. Psychedelic, yet country. Greasy, yet jammy. All Dead things to all Dead people………..

For 1971, this is the complete live Dead package. Highly highly recommended!

If the world were clear, art would not exist……

Rock on,

Doc

12/14/71

a long time ago in an existence far, far away...

I was traveling in a jet from Florida to Washington. We had a stop in Chicago. I had had half of...something ;))) for the ride. We flew in to Chicago. I had 12/14/71 playing in my cassette Walkman. Looking out my window, the sun lit up the towers of Chicago...

it was glorious

Proudfoot and Glory

One could say - "like rollin' into New York City, with the skyline in the morning light" :-)

well now...

the Tedeschi Trucks Band shows at Red Rocks that are on sale now require a pass code for "Fan Club" members...Guess I'll have to wait for general sales on Friday the 17th...

....so many rulez!!!

Dicks Picks 19 Vinyl Real Gone

It looks like Real Gone is offering a pre-order of Dicks Picks 19 on Vinyl. Considering how quickly Dicks Picks 36 vinyl sold out in combination with just how good and special 10/19/73 is.. this will likely sell out pretty quickly too.

Just a friendly FYI. That Dark Star > Morning Dew is stunning, or in the immortal words of OB.. a real Bobby Dazzler.

DiP 19 Vinyl

Pumped for this show Jim, I missed the DiP 36 too, actually found it in a record store in Seattle though, so all worked out

Yepper, Dicks 19 is perhaps my fav.
If you don’t have it, GIT SUM!

EDIT: so as not to be called out by the quote police, I allocated Bobbie Dazzler from Gary Drayton on Oak Island.
It’s what he says when he finds a “top pocket find” , kinda like shows for us!

It's vinyl! And one of my top favorite DiP's.
Can't wait!

Jonah as Jerry?

So, in today’s edition of “Is this a real news story or something from The Onion?” I see it’s been announced that Jonah Hill is going to portray Jerry Garcia in a new biopic to be directed by Martin Scorsese.

Assuming it’s true, I suppose it could be good. Scorsese has directed some of my favorite films and Hill’s not a bad actor. But man, there are a lot of ways this can go sideways. Can you imagine trying to cram an accurate representation of Jerry’s life into a 2-3 hour movie? Trying to recreate the Acid Tests on film? I hope they got a really good screenwriter.

In other news: my credit card took a beating this morning, as tickets for the TTB at Red Rocks went on sale. No sooner had I secured the ducats (further back than I’d like, but not too bad) than I got a message from Real Gone saying there were selling a limited edition vinyl version DiP 19, which I felt obliged to order. (Still kicking myself for not grabbing their vinyl of DiP 36 when I could, so I had to pull the trigger on this one.) I owe, I owe, so off to work I go … but at least I’ll have some good music.

Ha..

Yep. Top Pocket Find (in my best British accent).

As for the Scorsese movie, I am keeping an open mind but agree.. it could go sideways. Hopefully they pull it off.

This came up in another thread or earlier on, so to keep you from scrolling back to try to find it. Here is the recap, includes rumored casting decisions:
__________________

- Iggy Pop to play Pole Guy from Sunshine Daydream
- Sam Kinison to play Donna
- Jack Black to play Pigpen
- Daisy Duke's pants to play Bobby's Short Shorts from the 80's. (from the Original Dukes of Hazard, not the Jessica Simpson remake)
- Rocket the racoon from Guardians of the Galaxy to play Bobby's beard.

Stars arrive on their own timetable…..

50 years ago today…………….

December 15, 1971
Hill Auditorium, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan

Set 1: Bertha-Me And Bobby McGee-Mr. Charlie-China Cat Sunflower>I Know You Rider-Beat It On Down The Line-It Hurts Me Too-Cumberland Blues-Jack Straw-You Win Again-Run Rudolph Run-Playing In The Band-Brown-Eyed Women-Mexicali Blues-Big Railroad Blues-Brokedown Palace-El Paso-Casey Jones

Set 2: Dark Star>Deal-Sugar Magnolia-Turn On Your Lovelight>King Bee>Mannish Boy> Turn On Your Lovelight-One More Saturday Night

Encore: Uncle John’s Band

This is dedicated to Todd Sherman………….

High quality tapes of the massive, 18 song first set have circulated since the dawn of time and were a December 71 cornerstone in many collections. Highlights include the sweet China/Rider, fine Cumberland Blues, and a strong Hurts Me Too.

The second set appeared years later. It was worth the wait………

It kicks off nicely with the twelfth and final Dark Star of 1971, twenty minutes of jamming sonic sweetness that travels through many interesting musical spaces. The second set---and the last tour of the year---closes with mythic appropriateness with a rockin’, bluesy, rapping (hey, was Pigpen the first white rapper?) old school Lovelight.

A wonderful companion piece to December 14. When resonant harmonies arise between this vast outer cosmos and the inner human cosmos, poetry is born……

Sometimes at night I would sleep open-eyed underneath a sky dripping with stars. I was alive then.…

Rock on!!

Doc
It is my hope that during my brief passage through this universe, that I may share with you the joy of hearing the music of the stars... knowing that the composer was from a distant place and the songs were written eons ago, which now fall gently on this place for all to hear…..
