    Catpower

    BigBrownie I have only heard one track by Catpower - a cover of "Satisfaction" on a cheapo compilation of Stones covers. Slowed down, and played with just an acoustic guitar, it's one of the best covers of their songs I've ever heard. So, yes, I'll look out for that Dylan show she has done - cheers.

    I have the 5-CD Movie Soundtrack in folders by date on my music player.
    Started last night and am going through it in order.

    Watched The GD Movie and bonus DVD last weekend.

    Unfortunate that Dave/Rhino did not (so far) choose the honor the 50th anniversary of the glorious year of 1974 Grateful Dead with a Plangentized/Normanized Winterland October 1974 “The Last Ones” Box of complete audio and video.

    DHB?

    10/18/89: good
    10/19/89: better
    10/20/89 best ???
    We shall see sports fans as after a long fly ball to right center the kid might be looking at a ITPH leading to a DHB…
    Onward!

    EDIT: weellll? 10/20/89 was working hard to best the 19, but the flubbed Fire perhaps holds this one back?

    This run was weird? Sometimes brilliance on par with any else this year, otger times inconsistent? I’m not sure what they should do with these?
    Don’t think they merit stand alone mini box, which is good because at only one a year we’re probably down to less than 20 remaining!! One or two might work as Dave’s but don’t think he’s used multitracks just for DaP yet?
    One or two could fit in a 89 fall tour box with say 9/29, 2 from Jersey, 2 from Philly, 2 from Charlotte, and remaining Miami. Yes that’s eight, but some are probably short enough to fit on 2 discs.
    I’ll consider mote of that after I finish the tour.
    So, onto Charlotte!

    And I was driving by the Santa Barbara Mission on my way to the carwash as Mission in the Rain played. Whatever metaphor one may assign to the word "Mission", the coincidence made me smile, smile, smile. And on this day of days.

    Daverock, I recently saw Cat Power perform the 5/7/66 show in a small theater. Highly recommended to all who have the chance.

    On a different note,,,, Elvis is in the house

    Latest Elvis album (Memphis), a 5 cd set.

    Nice, best thing, the studio cuts have no overdubs or added singers. Pure Elvis, no strings attached :-)

    Dennis,
    Yes, the UK Amazon site tells me that an adult has to be present for the delivery! Where will I find one of those?

    Joni 4

    what a run around from amazon jeff's india help this morning.

    Order the Joni, both, from Amazon because of free shipping.

    Some odd things come up about being called for the delivery and special instructions of getting ready for it's delivery, like padding on the floor, clearing the passage ways.

    I dig a little deeper and they have both of these items (records and cd's) weighing 1100 lbs each!

    So I used chat to inform them of the error on page and to verify stuff would be coming regular mail and no one was going to show up with an 18 wheeler, handing me a box of cd's.

    Over an hour and 10-12 transfers to "people who handle that", not one seem to understand the simple fact that the records and cds did NOT weigh a TON! And all I wanted was assurances the stuff was coming as it should.

    No warm fuzzy feeling, may have to cancel and reorder from Joni. (then I get the "free" print,,,,,while supplies last)

Just received my Dave's Picks Vol. 21!What a great show/recording!1973-That was the year of my very first Dead show in Buffalo,New York!For fellow New York State'ers,some may remember that was the year of Governor Nelson Rockefeller's new get tough anti drug laws going into effect...of which "Don't get caught holding the bag!''was the slogan on all the commercials!Anyway,me and a buddy hitchhiked from Niagara Falls to Buffalo's War Memorial Auditorium to see the Dead when, walking through the parking lot we were searched and busted with weed!The cops took our weed and then let us go with a warning-that almost blew the evening for us but fortunately the Dead and the wall of sound made us forget about the cops by the second song!(at least I think it was a wall of sound show-I know I saw it!)It was billed as two two hour sets-which it was probably more!Vol 21 is pretty much the same set list as that October show as I remember it.(without checking).Great memories of a life changing time in my life-I was 16 years old then and I turn 60 in April!I probably have heard some Dead or JGB almost every day since then!
