    Quadrophenia (Deluxe) I've never seen the Who, just got tix to see them in November performing Quadrophenia. The "deluxe" part is Pete Townshend's demos of the songs on the album. His demos sound better than a lot of bands' final products...

    Been driving around listening to the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band this weekend This band supported the Grateful Dead at the Boston Tea Party in 1969! What a wild show that must have been.

    Is it just me?
    Or could they have picked better versions of a lot of the songs on Reckoning? I have a bunch of stuff from that Warfield run and Jerry's voice sound much better on the unofficial stuff. Also I hate how loud they mixed the crowd on that album.

    Thanks, you've definitely given me some homework! So, do you think the "Great" 5-8-77 Barton Hall show is overrated, or great but there are better? I noticed you didn't mention it. I DLed it yesterday but haven't listened to it yet.

    Free: 10-29-77 The Dead in '77 had a lot to do with raging, right? Get the recent Charlie Miller Aud - they were all the way on this night. (It was a Saturday) Dick's Picks 15. 9-03-77 After being "unable" to play for a spell, they bust out big time - Jerry is en fuego!!! My faves are 1/2 Step, Music, Loser, Estimated>Eyes... There's a radio broadcast out there with Jerry way more front-and-center than here - this is the connoisseur's version. (It, too, was a Sat) Dick's picks 29, 5-19 & 21-77. The first show has an electrifying Sugaree as well as a tremendous second set. The second show has Scarlet >Fire and is probably a hair better overall. (Thurs. & Sat.) AND there are three Winterland runs to be had via the Archive and Dead.net - for purchase, downloads and vines. Suerte, suerte.

    Definitive '77 Show?
    There are obviously so many great live shows, but I personally feel like Live/Dead kind of best represents their late 60's sound, and Europe '72 (once I went and got the original tracks for about of it, those which were sped up so much on the offical release they sound like Alvin and the Chipmunks play the Dead) is just the best you can do to represent the 72-72 era. But I know '77 is thought of as another great year, and all I have so far is a rather underwhelming (In my opinion) show from 4-30 (Download Series, Vol. 1). What would anyone suggest as THE one, single show to have from '77, official release or otherwise? I tend to lean toward the officials only because the sound quality tends to be slightly better than the stuff available on Archive.

Well. I'm Striking another match /, Excellent Encore, xo! Thanks Furthur and Crew! Thanks TaperRob and Sara Lee, HA! It's All Over Now, Baby Blue Lyrics By: Bob Dylan Music By: Bob Dylan You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast Yonder stands your orphan with his gun He's crying like a fire in the sun Look out, all the saints are coming through And it's all over now, Baby Blue The highway is for gamblers, you'd better use your sense Take what you have gathered from coincidence The empty-handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets The sky, too, is folding over you (note 1) And it's all over now, Baby Blue All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home Your empty-handed army is all going home The lover who just walked out your door Has taken all his blankets from the floor The carpet, too, is moving under you (note 1) And it's all over now, Baby Blue Leave your stepping stones behind, there's something calls for you Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you The vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore Strike another match, go start anew And it's all over now, Baby Blue It's all over now, Baby Blue It's all over now, Baby Blue It's all over now, Baby Blue

So Many Roads Lyrics By: Robert Hunter Music By: Jerry Garcia Thought I heard a blackird singing Up on Bluebird Hill Call me a whinin' boy if you will Born where the sun don't shine And I don't deny my name Got no place to go, ain't that a shame? Thought I heard that KC whistle Moaning sweet and low Thought I heard that KC when she blow Down where the sun don't shine Underneath the Kokomo Whinin' boy got no place to go So many roads I tell you So many roads I know So many roads, so many roads Mountain high, river wide So many roads to ride So many roads, so many roads Thought I heard a jug band playin' "If you don't... who else will?" From over on the far side of the hill All I know the sun don't shine And the rain refused to fall And you don't seem to hear me when I call Wind inside and the wind outside Tangled in the window blind Tell me why you treat me so unkind Down where the sun don't shine Lonely and I call your name No place left to go, ain't that a shame? So many roads I tell you New York to San Francisco So many roads I know All I want is one to take me home From the high road to the low So many roads I know So many roads so many roads From the land of the midnight sun Where the ice blue roses grow Along those roads of gold and silver snow Howlin' wide or moaning low So many roads I know So many roads to ease my soul (note 1) ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------(-----@ My road will always be there, I left love on it for you, all, xo! ----------------(----@----->Home---> Aroooooooooooooo....rrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooo

I will be careful to be quite,I may be offensive with my opinion. This one gets me in the mood, for purposeful thinking that is useless in our society, in this year 2012. I think I will dance. Let's go.

Eyes Of The World Eyes Of The World Lyrics By: Robert Hunter Music By: Jerry Garcia Right outside this lazy summer home (note 1) You ain't got time to call your soul a critic, no Right outside the lazy gate Of winter's summer home Wondering where the nuthatch winter's Wings a mile long Just carried the bird away Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own There comes a redeemer and he slowly, too, fades away And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom and decay And night comes so quiet, its close on the heels of the day Sometimes we live no particular way but our own And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own Musical Excellence! Ahhh, if you could hear with my ears and with my mind, ahhhh the individual experiences that make us all one. Compounded beauty forever. Who needs a bank for the treasures and richness we have. Internal audits are proof. I love you, all xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxo At ease, now dance men and women, groove and smile!

Donor Rap into Attics Superior feeling of goodness at the songs end. Delightful! A beautiful stream has put me there but the commercials are like um woah, I would rather be there. I will be thinking of a song from the show and hear one of the commercials and urge out to go get, "Good to the last bite Sara Lee Bread" or buying a 4G best ever phone. Newness for my show listening. It's not good and a injustice to the musical experience but it goes like that. My gratitude is immense. My brain a little bewildered but hey it's been that before. Um yeah, I was remembering that great Eyes and heading to the store for bread and a phone and a movie. And to talk to my mother like I was a prize fighter. oh yeah and that Smokestack and the children want Sara Lee, right okay. Thank you, I will be waiting for my next Time Off Request that should be in tomorrow for April 27 & 28 to be approved and then the May, June and July dates to follow. I need a miracle. Oh an please do not fret over the commercials as That's Life, XO>

An Ultimate Favorite ~just like the other ones! Incredible feel, after a spirited Althea, oh yeah! Estimated Prophet Lyrics By: John Barlow Music By: Bob Weir My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no Been so long I felt this way, I'm in no hurry no Rainbows end down that highway where ocean breezes blow My time coming, voices saying, they tell me where to go (note 1) Don't you worry 'bout me--oh no no, don't worry 'bout me, no And I'm in no hurry--oh no no no, I know where to go California, preaching on the burning shore California, I'll be knocking on the golden door Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light Rising up to paradise, I know I'm gonna shine My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passing slow (note 2) Still I know I lead the way, they tell me where I go Don't you worry 'bout me--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, no, I know where to go California, a prophet on the burning shore California, I'll be knocking on the golden door Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light Rising up to paradise, I know I'm gonna shine You've all been asleep, you would not believe me Them voices telling me, you will soon receive me We're standing on the beach, the sea will part before me (note 3) Fire wheel burning in the air You will follow me and we will ride to glory (note 4) Way up in the middle of the air And I'll call down thunder and speak the same And my words fills the sky with flame (note 5) And might and glory gonna be my name And men gonna light my way My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passing slow (note 6) My time coming any day, don't worry 'bout me, no Don't you worry 'bout me--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, don't worry 'bout me, no And I'm in no hurry--oh, no, no, no, I know where to go One of the most excellent tunes of all time! So beautiful and picturesque and spirited! I have 100's of versions of this song memorized. I might just pick this as a last song I will ever physically hear. But i don't have to decide that right this second, I think. However, if I die right now, I"ll be all good.---------- --------> Don't worry about me NO! Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Excellent JAM, thank you, all! I love it, xo! What into...the Mountains to free my soul. xo! I love it when you sing as do others I know and having Bobby and the other ones back you it's Cosmic))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))>

I'm such a fan,such a big fan. I love this music. That's All Folks! lol. Morning Dew Lyrics By: Bonnie Dobson Music By: Bonnie Dobson Walk me out in the morning dew my honey, Walk me out in the morning dew today. I can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey, I can't walk you out in the morning dew today. I thought I heard a baby cry this morning, I thought I heard a baby cry this today. You didn't hear no baby cry this morning, You didn't hear no baby cry today. Where have all the people gone my honey, Where have all the people gone today. There's no need for you to be worrying about all those people, You never see those people anyway. I thought I heard a young man morn this morning, I thought I heard a young man morn today. I thought I heard a young man morn this morning, I can't walk you out in the morning dew today. Walk me out in the morning dew my honey, Walk me out in the morning dew today. I'll walk you out in the morning dew my honey, I guess it doesn't really matter anyway, I guess it doesn't matter anyway, I guess it doesn't matter anyway, Guess it doesn't matter anyway. One of the songs the Dead played almost every year from the 60s to the 90s. (1) It certainly sounds as if Jerry sings "mourn" even though the Bonnie Dobson original is "moan"

The Return of the Spectacular Spinning Songbook I got my first taste the "Revolver" tour last summer, my second is coming up in a couple of weeks. This was one of the most fun shows that I've seen in recent years. Maybe having audience members spin the wheel to choose the setlist is a bit gimmicky (and overstated, as generally there are 8 to 11 spins for a 30+ tune show), and maybe Elvis's "Napoleon Dynamite" sideshow-barker schtick is a bit over-the-top, but I loved all of it. And damn, the Imposters are good...and Elvis is still King. Nice girls not one with a defect, cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct. Red dogs under illegal legs. She looks so good that he gets down and begs. She is watching the detectives. ooh, he's so cute! She is watching the detectives when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot. They beat him up until the teardrops start, but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart.

See what I mean...I Love You More Than Words Can Tell, xo! Brokedown Palace Lyrics By: Robert Hunter Music By: Jerry Garcia Fare you well, my honey Fare you well, my only true one All the birds that were singing Are flown, except you alone Gonna leave this brokedown palace On my hands and my knees, I will roll, roll, roll Make myself a bed by the waterside In my time, in my time, I will roll, roll, roll In a bed, in a bed By the waterside I will lay my head Listen to the river sing sweet songs To rock my soul River gonna take me, sing me sweet and sleepy Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home It's a far gone lullaby sung many years ago Mama, Mama, many worlds I've come since I first left home Going home, going home By the waterside I will rest my bones Listen to the river sing sweet songs To rock my soul Going to plant a weeping willow On the bank's green edge it will grow, grow, grow Singing a lullaby beside the water Lovers come and go, the river will roll, roll, roll Fare you well, fare you well I love you more than words can tell Listen to the river sing sweet songs To rock my soul

I have been watching those shows about the med.cannibis and one thing really has me baffled.How can the feds collect tax on those places that sell med weed when they still do not show that they are legal under state law.Seems like a double standard to me ,pay my taxes or go to jail,oh by the way we are still going to send you to jail any way for following state law.Seems like bull*#%@* to me.

Good luck Parkas4Kids. Every time I try to do the same with the measly 700 songs on my Nano, playing on "shuffle" mode, something screws up and I never...quite...make it. Last time, at song 680, the thing locked up on me and I needed to reboot. Only 20 songs to go!

Boys and Girls I'm not saying that you should run out and buy this album today, boys and girls. You should, however, catch this band live at your earliest opportunity. Brittany Howard certainly has the pipes (and that "Brittany" first name) to be a pop diva, but she most definitely had not crossed over to the Dark Side. Check out this band!
