    Landover 3/16/90 It's okay; I give them all a chance. Nice, I would call it. Some good moments. I won't mention what I don't like because I don't want to make anyone feel bad - there's too much of that in any blog, and this is no exception. I don't appreciate my favorite band - some of my favorite people - attacked ever. Anyway, I always enjoy the shows from this box, but I don't find them memorable among the many shows released, except for one. Since I can't remember which one that is, I'll be in for a good surprise someday. I put all my cds on a list in an OpenOffice Excel style program, and line them up with a randomizing formula. Select all, and shuffle away with the sort feature. Never a dull moment. So I could just as easily be listening to Bartok right now, or Melvins, or Dylan, or Neil, or Irish trad, or Beatles, or Psychedelic Lollipop, or Zorba the Greek... But I have all the Dead releases other than Greatest Hits, and albums such as Steppin' Out that have become redundant; I gave those away to those who deserved them. The only set I never purchased is the second set of Spring 1990. Really, one is quite enough for me, and this is the only exception I have ever made to total deadicated official coverage. Well, I don't do post-Jerome. I'll listen, but I won't purchase. Personally, I'd rather listen to Dark Star Orchestra, and I mean absolutely no offense by that. My very favorite period is "Yes, please, I'd like to hear that one, Thank you!" The Dave's Picks series have all been scorchers, real barn-burners. Perhaps not adventurous in terms of exotic and unusual tours, but every Dave's P show has knocked me flat and given me palpitations. Thanks Dave. Please keep me subscribed, no matter how big yr box.

On most days I'm now certain that Phish's Amsterdam box contains the finest music I've ever heard (other days it's Hampton/Winston-Salem, Ventura, Chicago...). Trey's play here exemplifies a couple characteristics that were central to Jerry's style, that is, the note unplayed and emotivity. Check out his resurrectory solo beginning at 4:20 (!) - following a midsong wind down to baseline pulse - that is at first poignant, then positively uplifting after rebirth from pregnant pause at 5:42, and which finally soars at 7:28 under power of an updraft generated by Page's piano...

I wonder, just how the heck is it I've never heard of NOFX(?); yet, between a generally aging fan base across my favourite Dead sites and an odd fealty to the increasingly blurred country/pop/hiphop genres here in Appalachia, punk play (like "Charlie don't surf..."). Anyhow, I've discovered an early penchant for later material, so I began by ordering Wolves and Coaster as well as the '99 opus "The Decline"...to the hardcore among you tsk-ing me for neglecting Drublic, White Trash, and the 2 live releases, I assure both you and Bank of America (my warm, fuzzy, caring, corporate VISA underwriter) they'll be coming soon!

Archivist David Lemieux pulled out 5/8/77, beginning w Scarlet Begonias, this morning on his Grateful Dead history show on SiriusXM. Wonder if his copy is a digital bootleg too?

A. Identify Problem B. Implement Solution C. Fail D. Rinse E. Repeat I've all the resolve of cooked fettuccine. Not even al dente. Apparently an internet moratorium is required to arrest expenditures on new music. Discovery of Fat Wreck Chords (think about it) yielded a profligate spree that hooked the VISA for child support toward my collection's new sextuplets, all with punky, alt names like NOFX, Pear, Tony Sly, Fat Mike, and Me First (the last being a uniquely American patriotic gesture). Ah well, good cause you know, patronage of the arts, starving musicians, and all that.../p,k
