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.

Re: BCS

Totally agree with Angry Jack Straw on Better Call Saul over Breaking Bad. To me, the episode that kept me watching BB was Better Call Saul, the one that introduced Odenkirk's character. I'd loved him from Mr Show and Larry Sanders Show, and thought he finally brought a bit of levity into the dreary BB. And BCS is far from cheerful as Proudfoot says, but much deeper show for my tastes. And just wait for s5! Things heat up quickly. Lalo will become one of your favorite characters, maybe ever, and s6 is one of the great final seasons ever. I still take The Wire as my all time favorite show, but it's final season is my least favorite, and BCS's final season is my favorite. The show just got better and better as it went along. How Bob Odenkirk, Michael McKean, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seahorn, Michael Mando, and none of the writers or directors have won Emmys for it is mind boggling. Especially given Aaron Paul winning 4 Emmys for Jesse Pinkman.

How good is Better Call Saul? As good as Dave's Picks 30 1/2-3/70 at the fabled Fillmore East, which I enjoyed on my commute today (Dark Star> St Stephen> The Eleven> 3 min of Lovelight then 1/3/70 Early Set That's It For the Other One> Cosmic Charlie). Good stuff.

One addition to VGuy's Phish recommendations is 6/11/94 You Enjoy Myself at Red Rocks. Summer '94 was very good for Phish. This YEM is fiery. Also, recommend 11/2/96 released as Under a Coral Sky on DVD and cd, but an FM broadcast SBD circulated for years before that. The second set has an amazing take on the Talking Heads classic Crosseyed and Painless> Run Like an Antelope, the Harry Hood is just gorgeous, and they encore with a terrific A Day in the Life (which is one of the coolest encores they do, it's something to behold a band actually nailing that song with a spectacular light show taboot). If one digs funk, Summer but really Fall '97 is a wonderful place to look for the cow phunk.

Eta: Gonna check that out, Nitecat!

Dead Head TV

My covid project for two and a half years has been to re-release my program Dead Head TV on the internet. That day has come. We have a soft launch - the web site is in early stages of construction. We have segments from the first three episodes of DTV (April-May-June 1988) now available at:

Dreams We Dreamed dot com

Originally a monthly half-hour news-magazine format program produced by deadheads for deadheads, it now can be a time capsule from 1988 through 1990, when the Dead and deadheads were still touring the country. There are also interviews with San Francisco artists, musicians and Dead family members in upcoming episodes. Episode one and two feature reports on the Kaiser Convention Center 1988 shows and Frost Amphitheater 1988 shows.

Check back - more segments from the remaining fifteen episodes to come.

Enjoy!

That Mike - Phish

That Mike ( or anyone else for that matter), there is a website called Phish.in that is basically an archive.org version for just Phish shows. If you continue down the Phish rabbit hole you can find all of the shows going all the way back to the very early years. I would guess that it is a complete collection of just about every show they played from 1990 to present day. Of course the further they go back there are missing tapes (example the 80s), but that is to be expected. All of the tapes are coming from the audience but are still cool. All for free too.

Phish Gets Five Stars on Yelp*

VGuy - Thanks for the recommendation. It’s pretty cool you guys were at the Gorge ‘98 shows. The stuff I’m hearing on the radio by these guys is pretty good stuff, but that piece from the Saturday show you were at was a Buffalo Springfield moment

Gorge '98....

....the answer, of course, is yes. (My wife and I were at those shows). Would love to hear your thoughts.
Slip, Stitch and Pass, Vegas '96 and A Live One are also good ones if you want to tip your toe in the pool. '95 - '99 is peak Phish imo. Also that Saturday Bowl show. I've relistened to it twice already. Yup. I didn't imagine how great it was. I was worried that the "party favors" I had partaken in had effected my rating.

SLC....Salt Lake City....

....and they did play Dark Star there in '73. I had to double check myself to be sure I didn't dream it.
Here Comes Sunshine box in hand.
Ohhh boy.

BFD

It is a big fucking deal....

....speaking of BFD's, I just stumbled on a band called Tropical Fuck Storm.

Last Five material.

SLC - a paradise for lizards

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.

News story today

about Great Salt Lake drying up

I've heard before about that but...timely given recent SLC mentions

I Live In Utah

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

Your welcome

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

Lakes drying up....

....Hola from the southwest! 👋
In other news, my Phish Farmhouse LP is shipped and the latest archival release was announced today. 6.16.00 Osaka, Japan 🇯🇵. Comes out Friday.

Yes, "heard before about that"

You're welcome

Thanks Nitecat

Looking forward to Healy interviews 2 and 3.

I wonder....

....if Dave Lemieux and Kevin Shapiro hang out and share notes.
The archivists of my top 2 bands. Pumping out righteous tunes.
Currently watching Evil Dead Rise.
Give me your best shot. I can take it. Dogs and son are out.

Evil Dead Rise....

....I love me some horror. And this one fed my fix.
Bravo!!

IceCreamKid

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.

You might also enjoy the Dead Head TV Ice Cream Kids.

Looking forward to a another binge soon!
Keep ‘em coming brother…

Whelp, it finally happened....

....after owning a smartphone since 2011, I'm finally a member of the cracked screen club. Fell literally two feet off my end table, and yes. It has a case. Booooo!

Then yay!!!....

....Mickey released an ATMOS mix of Workingmans.

hey VGUY....

re: your HBD wishes.... I've been a-Head since my first show in '82 (can't get enough) ... but re: Phish, I've seen them at Jazzfest, and was just listening to my only Phish CD, a live one. Love alot of it ... if you're in the know, what other Phish releases would you recommend ... no pressure, just looking for some advice ...I think I have a DVD of a show they did back east as well. thx man!.....tcc

Phish?

Hampton Comes Alive

That and A Live One are the extent of my Phish collection

HCA...nice stuff, I must say

Those dudes from Vermont?....

....New Years '95 and Vegas '96. Clifford Ball. And, of course Hampton.
Anything between 1994 and 1999 gets my blood pumping.
If you want a good laugh, watch Phish shreds IT on you toob.

Hey "That Mike," if you see this, And Phish

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.

What did Mike Tyson say to Bob Wier?....

....Althea later!

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.

Jiminmd - dead head tv

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.
