    West Whately Sun

    Heading down this afternoon for Watermelon Wednesday at the West Whately Chapel, evening show with Mr. Sun. Darol and Grant both played with Grisman, with Joe K Walsh on mando and Aidan on bass equals acoustic ecstasy in a 90 seat venue.

    Dead Reggae Covers - Fire

    @topchinacat: I have both CD volumes of the Fire on the Mountain Dead reggae covers. The songs are done by the absolute legends of roots reggae. I read a story about the sessions where the artists came in never having heard the songs once before and rocked them in one take. I bought these in the mid-90s when I was new to reggae and since have accumulated a ton. That said, these covers hold up really well and still sound great today on their own or in any roots reggae mix.

    Number One in Where?

    I've often wondered about that Turlock thing, too. Weir made that remark numerous times, so it doesn't seem like just an offhand reference in which he could've inserted the name of any old no name town. (ie, "number one in Cucamonga" or El Centro or whatever).

    I imagined maybe there was a radio station there that played lots of Bakersfield country (Turlock is down that way), and I even went so far as to look that up. But if there was a station, it's long gone.

    So I guess Turlock just stuck in Bobby's mind, for some reason. I've driven through half a million times, because it's on I-5, and you pretty much have to go through there if you're traveling from SF to LA, as one does many times if lives in Cali. But I don't think I've ever stopped, and I can't remember a damn thing about the place. Other than that they love Truckin'. Which means they're probably pretty darn A-OK.

    3-19-73 is a killer, for sure. Just like practically everything I've ever heard from '73. What an epic year.

    What am I listening to right this second? Aaron Copland's piano concerto. (It's morning at La Casa del Crow, still drinkin me coffee.) Very jazzy and dissonant.

    Brothers Dane

    10.25.73 Dane County Coliseum show, interesting twists second set. Very pleased to find full video on the archive of The Brothers concert at MSG from March of 2020 after which the pandemic shut down everything immediately. Great guitar from Warren and Derek, no surprise, the ABB catalog played superbly.

    Rainbow Theatre, 6-3-77 - Bob Marley

    (thanks Dennis!) ... wouldn't it have been great if Jerry & the boys slipped in some of Marley's "jammin" whilst doing so?! Would be just like them, actually. Along these lines, anyone heard the Raggae compilation of GD tunes called "Fire on the Mountain....."? It's alot of fun for a little changeup.......tcc

...tribute to Mr. Lesh today,

march 19 1995 spectrum

well, because I made it to the 2 nights before
and then sold my tickets for 3/19
to take my lady to sunnier & warmer climes...
...I knew right away she was not like other girls...
for a much needed break from work

so imagine my horror upon
returning 6 days later...
...what the...UNBROKEN CHAIN!

well, after 36 yrs of life together
she is still the best in my life...

....once in a while you get shown the light
in the strangest of places if you look at it right...

PEACE!
One World in Harmony...
