The real-time reports continue...
King Crimson
"In the Court of the Crimson King," "In the Wake of Poseidon," "Lizard," and "Red." Might even throw in "EleKtrik: Live in Japan" for good measure.
Kasey Chambers
Storybook
A covers album. Unfortunately contains the Suzanne Vega hit "Luka." Unfortunate not because I dislike the song, but because even hearing the name tends to start my interior jukebox with the tune and it could take days to get it out of my head.
Happening right now, by the way.
Luther Dickinson
James Luther Dickinson and the North Mississippi Allstars -- I'm Just Dead, I'm Not Gone
Live set from 2006 accompanied by sons Luther and Cody, along with "spiritual son" Chris Chew-- you ought to check this out. RIP Jim.
and
South Memphis String Band -- Old Times There...
More back-porch string music with Luther, Alvin Youngblood Hart and Jimbo Mathus.
What I'm Listenin to
Go with Patterson Hood; the Truckers deserve the tag of being the last real Rock band in America; So lets go for it - DBT; Steve Earle, the Dead 40% of the time and Jackie Levein - check him out--
The Avett Brothers
The Carpenter
I would have liked a little less cello and a little more banjo (no need to "pretty up" these songs IMO). Still an enjoyable listen, however.
listening to merl & jerry
Fantasy The Complete Recordings is Remastered and Resquenced to the original recording of July 1973. If you already own anyof the Keystone releases you MUST have this one. Absolutly unbeleivable sound. This was recorded 39 years ago....Get a copy for yourself, you will be very happy with it...!!!!
Just started
the second set of 10/06/77, Activity Center- ASU, Tempe - all cylinders, companeros!
As primers I listened to Miles/Rollins "Dig" from 10/06/51 & Rollins plays Bird from '56, followed by two takes of "I Love You Sweetheart of All My Dreams" courtesy Thelonious from 10/06/64.
Go Cards.
Little Feat.
Rooster Rag. Again. Truly an amazing disc! Anything Robert Hunter touches these days turns to gold - but then we've always known that, haven't we?
Paul Simon
Live in New York City (6/6/11)
I saw Simon about 6 months later on this tour -- setlist was the same as the NYC concert, though the full show from this tour includes a couple of additional covers, notably a show-highlight of a "for George" rendition of "Here Comes the Sun," unfortunately missing from this release.
Still pretty damn good after all these years.
This One Time, On Bandcamp....
Baltimore's own Jacob Panic's brand-spanking-new album, "Pop-Grass," which is available exclusively through Bandcamp.com (http://jacobpanic.bandcamp.com). If you dig modern pop songs played by a bluegrass band, check this album out; it's a steal at $10. And Jacob can pick him some wicked banjo!
Frost Amphitheatre
Palo Alto, Stanford U. 10/10/82 Had to listen on its 30th! (Miller Aud) A Sunday. I can imagine it was awesome to be there - all those exotic trees with the dappled light, balmy temp, and Jerry lettin' 'em rip! Too much! Agreed, best show of '82.

It
sounds perfect in some way every time I listen to it 'bout now, in the Fall when time is warping and tightening - awhoa!
10-12-68 give it a try, listen to it again or not. Unrelenting, ferocious and "spot-on, eh?". I was really hoping that the next Dave's was going to be this or hereabouts, but what is within earshot is most definitely worthy. Go there GOGD!!!
The week's new stuff
