    Golden era Grateful Dead in the most golden city in the Golden State? Yes, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 46 features the complete unreleased show from the Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, 9/9/72. Loosen that tie, this ain't a red carpet rodeo - it's the after party that legends are made of. Consistently excellent from start to finish, this West Coast groove showcases tracks that would soon debut on EUROPE '72, solo material from both Jerry and Bob, a riveting iteration of "China>Rider," a couple of Chuck Berry doozies, a bonkers 35-plus "Other One" that hits all the psychedelic highs, and wraps up with a "Casey Jones"/"Sugar Magnolia"/"One More Saturday Night" finale that'll have you wondering why you wore a tie in the first place. Hooray for Hollywood, indeed.
     
    Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, this release was recorded by Owsley Stanley and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Oh, and it ships next week so you'll wanna grab a copy while you can.

    NiteCat - Gene Clark

    I did enjoy the Gene Clark book. I’d read other Byrds books in the past (Johnny Rogan wrote a comprehensive one called Timeless Flight), but this one dialled in on Clark, including his post-Byrds career. He really was an under appreciated songwriter during his lifetime, and it took people like Robert Plant to get him the exposure he was due. The Burritos book was a good read, too, as there is not much written about them, although I have a number of books on Gram Parsons.
    I’ve read scores of music bios, I find it a fascinating way of life.
    Enjoy!

    Thatmike, thanks for the recomendations for the Gene Clark and Burrritos books, I didn't know he wrote those. I read some amazon reviews of Tamborine man that weren't very positive. I do like the Springfield book, although it leans heavily on Richie Furey's point of view. I guess that's better than noone from the band commenting. Did yo like Tamborine man?

    Thanks for the pointer to some great stuff. Loved "My Wife Thinks You're Dead".

    Anyone fat in the Junior collection department and would like to share/trade?

    I only have two songs by him currently,,, Dead wife which I got off utube and Highway Patrol.

    This is one of the great things about this forum, not hockey :-), but pointers to new music.

    thanks all!

    Blimey - he's good

    Alvarhanso -thanks for the tips about Jimmy Herring on youtube - he's clearly an astonishing guitarist. I have just watched the "Within You Without You" clip - it actually made me wonder if I could be transpose it to play on slide guitar in open tuning. Minus about 3 quarters of the notes, obviously.
    I also saw an interesting interview with him on playing with both The Allmans and The Dead. Without putting words in his mouth, he seemed to suggest that the biggest challenge was toning his natural speed and aggression down to fit in with and honour the traditions of the two bands. I will have a look at more shows online of him playing with John McLaughlin. I don't think he's the type of musician I could listen to every day, though, excellent as he clearly is.
    It reminded me a bit of the 1980's, and this chap I once knew, who was very into technically great guitar playing - of that decade. The only two I can remember that he liked were Joe Satriani - "Surfing The Alien" I think the album was that he leant me - and Steve Vai. I lent him "Europe 72" in return. He was polite - but underwhelmed. I was also polite - but a bit overwhelmed.
    All worth checking out though/

    Big time win. Congrats. Well done.

    Despite the victory, Draft-kings still has Tampa as a 2/1 favorite to win the series. Even they don’t believe it.

    Hoping for an Oilers close out to make it a great night for all of Canadaland.

Australia 🇦🇺 making plays!
Last Five material.

Vguy -You dreamed it - no '73 SLC Dark Star. And, if its the Dark Star on DiP28 you're thinking of, that is from Lincoln, NE. Like Drpryan said, the Dark Star - the full show - from 4/12/69 at the Student Union Ballroom, U of U is a real good un.

Dead performed the song Salt Lake City once, 2/21/95. Strider was there. Show released in the 30 Trips box. Beautiful Foolish Heart and first Visions of Johanna since the pair in '86.

Check it out. Great show.

Synchronicity:

"The Race Is On" played while I crawled through traffic in Portland OR. The thing is, I was right by Portland Meadows, a horse racing track.

That was cool.

The Great Salt Lake drying up has been an issue for some years now.

I'm still protesting over Garcia (50th Anniversary Edition) being released only on vinyl as I have no vinyl setup.

Your welcome. Glad you enjoyed the Healy interview. That was shot in a balcony storage area. The Hunter interview, Constanten interview and Cipollina interviews have been very popular also.

Anything between 1994 and 1999 gets my blood pumping.
If you want a good laugh, watch Phish shreds IT on you toob.

You mentioned a couple of weeks back that you had watched Phish's Live in Brooklyn DVD. Wanted to post that is a huge part of my yearly rotation. Listen to it 2-3/year. Just an awesome performance, just one of many I had a chance to see but was too busy at work to go. The last time I was in the Hampton Coliseum was for the recording of Hampton Comes Alive. Think, from memory, it was Cincy, Murfreesboro, and Hampton. A fun little jaunt. All three were wild. Saw Phish first time in November of 1995. A Live One also a great recording. Hard to believe but 2023 marks their 40th anniversary as a band. Happy anniversary Phish!!! Love you guys, get a couple of shows in next few weeks, and then maybe Nashville. Fall dates announced.

I've been enjoying these, Scott. Thanks so much for going through the trouble to clean these up and get them out there.

Evokes some great memories.. in the days before internet (at least as we know it now), social media and cell phones.. when Duprees Diamond News was how a lot of us figured out what was going on during the shows we could not attend, this looks like it was put together about this time. I have never seen any of it before.

Thanks again.

Glad to hear you are enjoying it. When I was producing and directing the show, I tried to make a show I would like to watch, an intelligent comment on the scene, show highlights, tour highlights, what a venue that I could not attend was like. I'd be interested in interviews with people involved in the Dead sphere, and with deadheads themselves, because they seemed to be interesting people. That's why we did "Deadhead Profiles". I felt like the straight media at the time was missing how cool the scene and the deadheads were, and as a professional journalist I could tell the story better, at least from a informed deadhead's perspective. What was amazing is it took off like a rocket, and we soon had all sorts of deadhead friends contributing to the show.

A gentle "Hmmm . . . ?" to the person here who told me that GL20 and the Sunshine Box could not arrive the same day, when I mused about how Grate that day would be, if it happened. :)

Be kind, rewind.
