Hi David, my request would be for the following program...if I can remember my cassette correctly, there was a hilarious Mutilaudio segment on there about televangelists asking for money - I always loved those segments! --------------------------------------- Grateful Dead Hour no. 14 Week of December 5, 1988 Part 1 26:33 Don't Ease Me In Lost Sailor-> Saint of Circumstance - 9/1/79 Holleder Memorial Stadium, Rochester NY Mercy Mercy Mercy - Brian Melvin's Nightfood, (Global Pacific ZK 40733, 1988) Run for the Roses - Jerry Garcia, Run for the Roses Part 2 23:26 Wharf Rat-> I Need a Miracle-> Bertha-> Good Lovin' 9/1/79 Holleder Memorial Stadium, Rochester NY There wasn't time to play the whole "Wharf Rat" and still get the end of the set in, but Garcia's last solo was so stunning I had to include it. According to DeadBase, the complete book of Grateful Dead Song Lists, 9/1/79 was Brent Mydland's 20th concert since breaking in with the band on April 22 of that year. Brand new to the repertoire were the Bob Weir-John Barlow composition "Lost Sailor," introduced in Oakland on August 4, and its companion piece, "Saint of Circumstance," which Weir sang in public for the first time in Glens Falls, New York, the night before this Rochester performance. "Mercy Mercy Mercy" is from a new Global Pacific album by Brian Melvin's Nightfood, with the late Jaco Pastorius on bass and Bob Weir on guitar and lead vocal. The song made the pop charts twice in 1967 - as an instrumental by Cannonball Adderley and in a vocal version by the Buckinghams. It was written by Josef Zawinul, who played keyboards with the Adderley Quintet and later founded Weather Report, where Pastorius became famous for his innovations on the electric bass. Weir also appears on "Fever," sharing lead vocals with Jan Fanucci. - DG --------------------- thanks David! Zeb

The Brent and Jerry tributes, as well as the Vince Welnick tribute, are high on my list for this series. Re Phil and Ives, there was a show I produced in my year of "commercial" syndication that my distributor balked at, with Phil playing a Coltrane song and a Miles Davis song. After a long conversation with a consultant, I re-edited the show to put the Coltrane cut in the last quarter hour. The reasoning is too tedious to recount. GD Hour blog Station list
