    Searching for version of Other One
    Sorry I posted this in the wrong area before.Can anyone tell me what show it was I heard recently where they are doing the Other One and then in a jam part the start riffing on Uncle Johns Band? They don't play UJB they just jam out the lyrics basically as a solo. I heard it on Grateful Dead radio but my receiver was not showing the date or place for some reason. Any info would be great as I would love to have this version of Other One.

    I think I figured out when I had it. This is going to really date me, but what the heck. Does anyone else remember 8 Track tapes? I think I had Reflections on an 8 track tape. That's why I couldn't remember it. I got rid of all my 8 Track Tapes so long ago I can't even remember when it was.

    you'll probably have better luck in the Tape Trading Topic. You might also check the Vineyard to see if it's being vined.

    Thanks. The strange thing is I don't recall ever having a Dead or JGB album or tape called Reflections. Hmmm??? Uh-Oh ... Could I be having another 1 of them senior moments? LOL Well now ya all know I'm 1 of them older Dead Heads. Too much weed. LOL I need to see the cover of Reflections. Is it on this site some where? Probably, yes? I just need to learn how to find it. Well ... I found it. It still isn't making any major bells go off. However, all the other song titles look familiar too. In fact I was wondering about many of those other songs too. But I just can't remember having this. But I must have had it. Well, once again, thanks much.

    Keith's first show was 10/19/71 which also featured a few other firsts, like Tennessee Jed, Jack Straw, Mexicali Blues, Comes A Time, One More Saturday Night and Ramble On Rose. Donna's "official" first show was 3/25/72. Keith and Donna's last show was 02/17/79. At least according to deadbase, anyway. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    congrats, obviously you made a post! "I'll Take a Melody" is on Reflections. It was written by the great Allen Toussaint, who may have written a bad song sometime in his life but if so I never heard it.

I'm working on a project where I want to attempt to archive Grateful Dead bootleg lot shirts. I would like to create a print publication as well as a website celebrating the lot bootleg shirt. I would also like to document the stories and lore behind the shirts. I would love to hear any stories about anyone funding their tour by selling shirts, stories from shirt creators, any crazy Dead bootleg story (favorite shirt, shirts tha led to introductions, crazy adventures, etc... Feel free to send me any pictures, stories, ideas, suggestions, etc.. Thanks! Peace.

A long, long time ago, when we listened to tapes, a friend of mine had this great show from (I think) May 1978. Here is what (I think) I remember:
Terrapin > Sunrise > Estimated, which were mind-blowing. Probably Donna's best Sunrise; will bring you to tears.
I'm fairly sure that Terrapin went straight in to Sunrise. But I'm sure that Sunrise went straight in to Estimated. I don't think it was edited that way.
They were playing these tunes a lot at that time, but I've combed through the archives and just can't locate a show with this sequence; my memories may be at fault.

Thanks!

In Deadbase X, the lists for all 30 Sunrises:
5-12-77 Estimated>Sunrise>Terrapin
5-22-77 Good Lovin'>Sunrise>Estimated
1-11-78 Samson>Sunrise>Terrapin
4-11-78 Fire>Sunrise>Terrapin
That's all that have either an Estimated or a Terrapin on either side.
So maybe that 5-12-77?
Cheers

Hey 1st Show!

Thanks for the assist; May 22 1977 is the one. Listening to it right now. You know what's wrong with that show? NOTHING! ;-) Many of the tunes played that night are easily top picks for me.

Does anyone have contact information for the photographer who was shooting family portraits at Laguna Seca in 1988? Today my daughter, who was three years old at those shows, mentioned that the post-show scene at those gigs is one of her earliest memories. I’d love to get a print of the photo that was taken by that photographer. Thanks!
