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.

It's not just young folks, either

Most people -in fact, all people - I know have got mobiles, and take them around with them when they go out. The last person I went out with even used to answer it when she was out with me, which I thought was a bit of a cheek. "It's my son" she used to happily mime, pointing at her phone. Yes..tell him to....

The only gigs I can remember where people didn't have the cursed things were those at Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club, and at King Crimson extravaganzas. Robert Fripp is known to start shows by telling people not to use mobile phones while the band are playing. He has been known to end concerts abruptly if he sees anyone breaking this basic code on courtesy.

Daverock: no hockey, which is a shame because at least that way there’d be something of interest to read…

MIKE: though it’s been changing for years, it’s really only been the last year or so that’s it’s turned into something else.
I keep telling the Other One that the day I get an issue that I can’t find at least one thing of interest, it’s over!
It’s getting close. Usually I’ll read the one page “ask some celebrity” and Ask Croz, which has been good, but perhaps not as funny as ask Dr Ozzy was, and that’s about it. Used to like some of the movie reviews, but it feels like nobody makes movies anymore, only superhero action comic crap? At least that’s mostly what they review…
Now a young person could say it’s just me, I’m too old and outta touch.
Perhaps, but if this crap they call music and —don’t even get me started on the fashion BS— is the best there is and what’s hip culture today, we’ll then I’m proud to be a Dino! Yep, no more subs for this fossil.

EDIT: does it matter Daverock, if they go to shows they don’t actually watch/listen to it, they just talk through it, at least when their not recording on their phones. Kudos to performers who don’t allow it.
Oh well, nothing lasts as pranksters say…

cost of living these days

Maybe young people don't go to gigs anymore. It's funny looking at concert footage from the 60's and 70's-the last one I saw was "Charlie is My Darling" featuring The Stones in 1965. The crowd look to be made up of children. Looking round at the last gig I went to, it looked like a day out for the over 60's.

Speaking of pricey.
Local CL ad for July 1st at Folsum.
Field level (standing) with "close-in" parking = $395.
Says that is less than it cost him.
How do young folks afford stuff these days?
Makes me feel old. And get off my lawn, lol.

How’d you know I was gonna ask!!??
Best. Uniform. Ever.
Pretty terrific visiting the old Chicago Stadium. The noise those folks generated was like a fleet of 747s taking off. Now THAT was an electric atmosphere!!
Oro - You are right about Rolling Stone magazine. I used to love the Hunter Thompson days, all through the 70s into the 80s, but as music audiences changed, it morphed into some kind of fashion culture magazine. No thanks. I remember seeing an issue at the dentist around the time Ray Manzarek passed away, and they had a postage stamp sized mention of him passing, and about The Doors. That was it. The Doors, for crying out loud! But they give full page spreads to some here this morning, gone this afternoon “artist”. The freaking Doors, that is all they get after their contribution to music!

A better ticket story

Back in 1990 I was dating a girl who lived in Milwaukee. One time my visit happened to coincide with the conference finals with Chicago hosting Edmonton. I had always wanted to see a game at the old Chicago stadium for no other reason than the singing of the National Anthem. I called the box office the day of the game and they had two tickets available in the very last row. I bought them, not knowing they were under the balcony and you had to lean forward to even see the ice. Anyway, as the first period began, I noticed three empty seats on the opposite side, two rows off the ice near the red line. Between periods we go down and start milling around the area. All of a sudden some guys asks, "are you looking for those empty seats?" I meekly said, "Yes." He points down and says, "they are right here. Enjoy the rest of the game." So, now I own two Blackhawk jerseys. And "No" to your next question.

In the next round, the LA Kings Stanley Cup hopes were dashed in game 2 of the finals by Canadiens' coach Jacques Demers who asked for an illegal stick check against McSorley in the final two minutes. Your rivals, trailing 1-2 at the time, scored on the ensuing power play and went on to win in overtime. Then proceeded to win the Cup. I have always thought poorly of Demers for pulling a stunt like that. I guess the hockey gods saw it differently. Still it would have been nice to see an all Canadaland final, especially Toronto vs. Montreal.

Gretzky . . . yup. I was fortunate enough to see him play other times. He often made other professional hockey players look foolish.

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.

It is a big fucking deal....

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

Australia 🇦🇺 making plays!
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.

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.
