Yeah, the Giza show is it I believe, for the song Shakedown Street, and a damn fine version of it too! Contrary to the funky Brent style of the song, K&D's vibe for that song at Giza was way more euphoric & jazzy as it segues out onto the wind in the sandy desert night. I myself have been jonesing for some of that same era within the later Keith & Donna era. As far as Dave's Pick's go. With this here (Kathy Bates voice from 'Waterboy') "DEBELZ" Box we probably won't see a 1978 pick for awhile now. Since the last one before this was DaP#37, a damn fine show with even better extras at that! All that said I had been eyeing on some shows from late year 1978, but only the ones before the WinterLand closing show. I guess Keith was not feeling it nor playing well around this time, and Brent would soon be replacing him in April 1979. Regardless there are still some impressive set lists and good performances from late '78 including 'Shakedown' & 'From the Heart of Me' amongst other songs off the "Shakedown" album. So who knows? Maybe them shows would make for a nice 'extra' disc release. Anyways the last two shows left over from the April tour are now both probably a future Dave's release for one and the other show being extras for sure. Possibly could still see something released from that early spring, thaw tour. I not know of many releases that Dave has covered from that era I know of {DaP23 & DiP18} that already???{syntax error?} 1978 also has some summer classics still unreleased, they may get out there still. Me personally I would love to see a late November, early December 1978 release with a Keith & Donna Shakedown. The song itself has only been on two Dave's releases so far, with #39 being the first, and then #47. The latter a damn good pick still available in the store, lucky for the late comers on that one!

Thank you for the reference to David Gans version of Down to Eugene

I had the good fortune to see the songwriter Jim Page around town a frw times

"Rockin' to the rhythm of the roll"

we still have the 5 cd sets. Frankly Miami, Des moines, Jersey city, Dijon are much better. And it's nearly tooo much. Yes 74 would deserve more muti tracks recording? But imagine...Jerry spending 2 years cutting reels for the movie, and visiting bank managers to balance bank accounts? what could left of the original recordings?

A good reason to release Red Rocks 8-30, 8-31 and with all the other new songs from the Shakedown album those two nights.
Hey Dave! Release the hounds!
Cheers

Aside from Rock the Cradle, have there been any other officially released Shakedown Streets from 78?
They played it about a dozen times or so, I think.
Would be nice to have a few of those.
You know, because, 78.
Just saying.

PF’s post triggered that.

"I'm going down to Eugene to see the Grateful Dead"

Might be on that tube

I will investigate....havent heard that for a while

Edit: there is a video on that toob. You have to ff to about 4 minutes to get to that tune

They're not for everyone. Yes they’re thick with a long finish, but they have complex flavors that keep your tongue interested.. I used to keep a glass of water to use as a chaser like I was sipping whiskey until I got used to them. I drink them as a special treat, not for daily use. Most beers I drink have much lower ABV’s.

We hitch hiked down from Portland, when we got to MacArthur Court the marquee read An Evening with the Grateful Dead and L.S.D.. The Dead's equipment guys were unloading the trucks and they were pointing up at the marquee and laughing about it. The sign was removed as the day wore on. Kesey and the Pranksters were there with the Thunder Machine. When the show was over there were people setting off a lot of fireworks in the graveyard across the street from MacArthur Court, it was a wild scene!
