    Keith Fan - Where are You?

    miss that guy around these parts ... Anyway, I LOVE how much of Keith's left hand you can hear in the DaP 42 2.23.74 (top notch) He's Gone Other One - Eyes sequence .... Also, LOVE the somewhat laid back & funky groove in the SUPER Eyes outro jam that follows: (aka Stronger Than Dirt, or Milkin' the Turkey). Magic !!!

    3-9-81 vinyl

    Sounds good.
    Treated myself to the Black Friday sale price.
    Skipped getting 5-5-77 vinyl on Friday since I was able to get a copy of 5-22-77% vinyl a few weeks ago.

    The scalpers are already at work with 5-5-77.

    Note that according to the Real Gone website there are still 750 copies of DP3 vinyl that were held back for record stores and online retailers. Kind of lame since there are people who missed out when it went on sale and now the price will be higher.

    The last great Dylan record. To me, the songs are so powerful I have to be careful when I listen to it, because they really carry me away and I get very emotional. "If You See Her, Say Hello" just kills me every time. For example. But there's a lot of fun stuff here, too, (Jack of Hearts cracks me up every time). And half the songs are goddam classics.

    I've heard new born babies wail like a morning dove
    And old men with broken teeth stranded without love
    Do I understand your question, then, is it hopeless and forlorn?
    Come in, she said, I'll give ya, shelter from the storm.

    I mean, seriously. When Bob's on, he's just the best.

    Forgot that the run overlapped with the 25th anniversary of the legendary July '78 shows. The first show was my favorite of the first 4 shows of the run (I think I headed home and missed the last show) but it was all sweet and good with that line up! I bought the cds for at least 3 of those - been a long while since I've spun any but really need to dig em out.

    Pat Metheny

    Last night, at The Paramount in Rutland, VT, Pat Metheny solo concert, on many different guitars through the evening. His twenty Grammy Awards only hints at the depth and breadth of his music. Primarily acoustic material first half, he pulled covers off several other instruments and a double bank of percussion a la Orchestrion period for the second half, as well sampling and looping parts to stack. Pat has not spoken about himself much at past concerts, shared some stories, though probably many of the folks in the audience long time fans, knew much of it. He spoke especially about Gary Burton and Charlie Haden. His interview with Rick Beato on utube is outstanding look into his works. He's been on tour in Europe this fall, I almost missed it when he scheduled a few shows up this way. Highly recommend catching any performances in the states later this winter into spring. Many thanks to a wonderful friend who made this possible, Pat, part of my musical fabric nearly fifty years, almost as long as the Dead. Next up, Mr. Sun does the Nutcracker at the National Gallery of Art, down the street that night, Mickey, Bobby and Billy are part of the honors at the KC.

From a podcast of Deadshow of the month I recorded about 15 years ago. No break between tracks unfortunately. So if I stop listening after half an hour, I have to go back to the beginning. Anyway, it opens with China-Rider, and is well good.

but, of course...this afternoon's acoustic set will be 1970-05-02 [diP#8] @ SUNY Binghamton

Everyone enjoy your day, with Peace & Love for All!

I was at that Spectrum show. One thing in particular I remember was peaking during Scarlet>Fire and saying to myself, "whoa, they just played that backwards, note for note". Funny, the things we remember. Finally got a copy of that tape, and, no, they did not. But it was a damn fine show!

Hey rockers!

Right now I'm listening to San Antonio November 12, 1971. Maybe not classic, but a solid, fine show. Lots of the new material on display and an Other One that bobs and weaves through many different spaces. Underrated and rarely spoken of. Always worth a listen.....

When it comes to Texas in 1971, Austin gets the love, TCU gets a hug, San Antonio gets stood up at the prom.

Our memory is and always will be as good as time travel gets, and in the meantime time will do the travelling for us.....

Rock on,

Doc

...so this must be The Dead in Wonderland, 1984-06-21 Kingswood Music Theatre; taped this FM broadcast and it was always a fun listen, especially Wavy Gravy improv on his two great secrets about the GD lol; solid '84 show with special guests (Levon Helm & Rick Danko from the Band) for the 3 encores :)

Hey rockers!

Right now I'm listening to 2/11/70, not sure why but it sures sounds great!!

My best friend and I were at the 6/21/84 show, we rode up on the motorcycles and had a blast. The three song encore was super sweet. Hey now!

And then we caught the SPAC show on the ride back. Those were the days!!!

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain......

Rock on!

DMCVT - Definitely was watching that sweet old doggle woggle as it came and went during the set. I had skipped over the much of the intro text that detailed Holly's personal history as to Casco Bay - thanks for pointing it out and thanks for recommending the show!

This morning decided to stream another from the Wilderness Sessions - Beartooth Mountains, WY - 10/1/2020

Dear friends

I truly believe that it is impossible to listen to the Grateful Dead while being unhappy. They won't banish unhappiness from your life, but will go a long way towards enhancing the joys that life brings.

Currently listening to "Dear Jerry: A Celebration....", with The Yonder Mountain String Band playing "Shakedown Street". The woman fiddle player's voice adds a great dimension to the song. Well well well....

started with Ball, then went to Heavy then to In-a-gadda-da-vida, then Metamorphosis (my favorite). What a great band, Via con Dios Doug.
Back in the day, every would-be drummer played that drum solo from the in-a-gadda-da-vida lp, it was like a rite of passage.
Personally, the guitar solo in this lp, the "iron butterfly" screeching during that solo is a sound that was coined as "Heavy Metal" before such a thing was thought of.
What a time to be young.

The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living......

In memory of the late Mr Walton, I am listening to 11/20/71. Bill, I salute you and wish you safe travels!!!

And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods?

"How do you do?"
1976-09-25 at that Cap Center in MD, can't resist that Set 2, and no need to explain, just listen and BTW thank that mr. latvala for diP #20
[inside diP #20 don't forget about that fan letter stating "always felt it to be unfair to force Dead Heads to turn to illegitimate & poor quality bootlegs"
and suggests that the band "put out a line of recordings of your concerts."]
and so to TPTB I say "keep them COMING!"

A little bit quicker and...
we might have time to say "How do you do?"
before we left behind

It's my Friday, paperwork day, working on autopsy reports while listening to the Detroit shows of October 23 and 24 1971. Worth a listen..............

I saw comments when 1-22-78 vinyl came out that it was a bad pressing.
How was your copy?
I suspect that some are bad but that there are some good ones too.
I didn’t buy it because of the bad reviews.

Cnkd - luckily mines 100% proof. No scratches or any audible interference at all. I have to say also, that whenever I have bought some L.Ps off deadnet, and one of them is less than perfect, it has always been replaced by them with no problem. I'd go for it!
Great show of course. I'm now back into 1978 for a while - Dicks Picks 18, featuring the two shows from 2/78, is a stone cold classic as everyone knows.
