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.

Telstar

The first time I heard electronic music was in the early 1960's when I was about 5 or 6. "Telstar" by The Tornados, which still sounds wonderful to me today, and the Doctor Who theme by the Radiophonic Workshop, master minded by Delia Derbyshire. Some 10 years later, when I first heard "Meddle", the opening "One of These Days" reminded me of this music.

Good Vibrations

Mention of the theramin always makes me think of Clara Rockmore, who I had read about a few years ago, as one of the renowned masters of the instrument. I was always intrigued by her story, playing truly such a unique instrument, and her Lost Album is available for sale. However, I think the Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations”, and the odd inclusion in my old Munster DVDs is probably enough for me.

Jack Eichel must have one sore shoulder today. It was a clean hit, though, by Tkachuk, but talk about rocking your world. It’s a rough game, keep your head up, Jack. When I was taking karate (Goju ryu) years ago, I was sparring a much younger guy, big fellow that played defence for one of the Junior teams (London Knights), where the NHL players get selected from. He hit me so hard, all I could see was my head rolling across the dojo floor. Keep your head up, and your fists in front of you, Mike.

Received “ Jerry Garcia (Reissue): The Collected Artwork” book today, will go through it over the next few days. I am always amazed by how many great musicians were also first rate artists - Garcia, Joni, Dylan, Ron Wood, Charlie Watt, George Frayne (Commander Cody), Lennon, etc etc. My holy trinity has always been music, art, and sports > there is beauty and poetry and good and evil in all of them. Real soul food.

Edit - I just read this: Clara Rockmore’s theramin album was produced by….Bob Moog. Yes, that Moog.

Lothar & HP, Theremin, Moog, Synclavier, Orchestrion

Electronic music was an interest of mine in the late 60s and early 70s, hand built small tone generators with Radio Shack kits in part to learn how to control touch tone phone switching. Though I had studied piano, when cut loose with a Moog Synthesizer in a class at American University in 1972, it was a total uphill curve. When viewed photos of early production Moogs, its all about patch cords, tone generators and filters had to be hooked together via external cabling before the keyboard could control much of anything. So there were dozens of phone jacks and cables to connect, spaghetti. Before the Moog, there was the Theremin, patented in 1928... both used by Lothar and the Hand People. When arrived in this area of Vermont eons ago, I came to know Will Wright who lives in these parts and played with Lothar and the Hand People back in the day, played shows with the Dead, the Byrds, Canned Heat, and Hendrix. Will was my guitar teacher briefly. New England Digital was born nearby as well, late 1970s developers of the Synclavier which was originally designed at Dartmouth. Pat Metheny, among others (Zappa, Genesis, The Cars, Herbie Hancock) began to use the Synclavier and since he was in the Boston area, came up this way multiple times to work with NED, gave some solo concerts at Dartmouth to explore it. Pat later developed his version of an Orchestrion, an electronically controlled "player piano" collection of instruments distant kin to synthesizers. Pat's playing locally tomorrow night in trio format, pleased to have a ticket.

Early electronic sounds

Going back to that for a minute, one curious cd I've got is called "Forbidden Planets", which features early electronic recordings from the end of the 1940's to 1958. It features what might be considered low and high brow music-film themes and classical pieces by Stockhausen. Including "Gesang Der Juenglinge" by the latter. That's bad trip music if there is such a thing!
I saw Stockhausen live once, which was quite a strange evening. He gave a brief lecture, followed by a piece of music called "Hymnen" which is a cut up of various National anthems. They played electronic music on the public speakers in the bar during intermission. It was all quite formal though - it wasn't psychedelic in the same way that rock bands using electronic sounds were/are. I suppose if you were used to seeing classical music performed, it was quite weird. It was all very quiet. I can remember talking to a girl in the bar, who remarked how strange the atmosphere was - with the electronic sounds bleeping away in the background.

Not to jinx you, but congratulations. I don’t see the Panthers coming back to win this series. Not the way Vegas is playing right now. That long layoff seems to have taken away Florida’s momentum. Here’s hoping that Florida can win one at home so you get a chance to see the Cup in person.

....yes. They do.
But Eichel is coming off neck surgery from the off season.
That looked extremely painful.
Aaaand. He's back and scores on his first shift. 💪

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.
TFS.

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.
