YES, JGB 5.21.76 Don't Let Go, is my favorite Jerry release. I still remember standing in a Sam Goody (in a mall, 2001ish) and being like "Wha' the wha' is this?" This was when my wife was a stay at home mom and I was BROKE, but I took a chance and threw down the cash, now new copies are $200 on eBay. The liner notes said it was to be the first of three releases from 1976, that never happened I guess. Anyway, get some Don't Let Go in your life today.

1968 or 1970, most likely 1968.

So he mentions this comment in the seaside for #47, he also writes in the insert sleeve of #47 that they were determined to make #47 from the "Brent Era"....does that mean that DaP #48 will not be an 1980s show, I sure hope it is from the 1980s!!
This year has had nothing but 1970s shows released including the Box Set/RSD: 6 shows from 1973 including WOTF bonus live material, 3 shows from 1977 between #45 & RSD, 1972 for #46, and now 1979 for #47. I don't think we'll get 1981-1983 because of the great box set last year, but it's time for some 1980s.
What would TPTB consider a "doozy", my guess is a two show as has happened with the November picks twice before....my guess is it's time for that double shot doozy of 1985!

UPS tracking timely and accurate.
But when they turn it over to the Louis Dejoy circus, crickets.
Consistently this year tracking dies when it gets to USPS.
They have been close to on time for the UPS original estimate though.
And they all get here. My 47 is due today so we'll see.
(Edit: Nope, didn't come on UPS estimated date)
Cheers
Brent songs: a few I like, but not the woman hating ones or his contribution to Little Red Rooster. He seemed to just turn angry somewhere along the line. Uncomfortably unpleasant at times.

Is the the only online purchasing outlet where you pay money for your product, and then have to hope and even beg for your product?

Not receiving my paid-for-product is the norm for most at Dead.net.

My DaP47 hasn't arrived yet, but am looking forward to it, especially the Shakedown (Mrs. Cat's fave). But I agree Angry Jack, the 4/6/82 version has always been one of my favorites.

For Days Between, I pulled up Don't Let Go from JGB Live .... I am amazed every time I listen ... this its PURE JERRY on guitar: after the lyrics he jumps into a rambling, blazing and compelling journey, complete with blistering strumming with a seamless, effortless landing to close it out. To me, it showcases his guitar genius, being a master of timing, technique and musical leadership.

I am so lucky to have seen Jer and the boys 50+ times in the early/mid 80's ... and be in the presence of that magical talent. I am eternally grateful to them all for giving so much of themselves for so long...what a gift!! ....................tcc

Totally agree on Just a Little Light. This is a song I'm so sorry was never fleshed out. It had such potential. In my minds eye it has a downward spiral, that could've led into something incredible.

Don't forget Blow Away,,,, I always liked that one.

Daverock, thanks for pointing out Pacific High. Turned out I have a copy of it in stock, thanks to our time travellin' tractor driver,,,, nice recording at least on Expressway to Your Heart.

You will like that. It's one of my favorites. Its one of the best ever.

PF and Obeah - cheers. Yes, that was the track that encouraged me to slip away. Quite seductive in a way. I've always liked the space between waking and sleeping - but once there, it's not easy to hold on to it without drifting over. "Such a long long time to be gone and a short time to be there".

Anyway - I should listen to a lot more JGB. I've just ordered a double cd called "Pacific High" from February 1972, which looks as though it was a radio broadcast. Features Bill the drummer apparently.
