    Rolling A Joint On Caravan

    Ha! I have rolled so many joints on that album!
    Good to see people are liking it - Caravan were an important part of the'Canterbury music scene' which spawned Soft Machine, Hatfield And The North, National Health, Gong etc but Land Of Grey And Pink is probably the pinnacle.
    Richard Sinclair being I think one of the great vocalists and bass players
    If you like that check out Camel - especially Mirage and The Snow Goose and there is also a Cantrbury connection in that Sinclair played on Rain Dances and Breathless
    I also saw them on the Breathless tour in of all places Canterbury!
    Enjoy!

    The Radio Luxembourg Show...

    ...may 16 1972

    on the medium wave 208

    I can remember being
    9 years old
    stilling in the parlor
    of my grandparents house
    less than 5 miles
    from the border between
    East & West
    Germany
    looking at a large square box with large ivory push-buttons
    with strange names written across the display
    names like
    Helvetia
    Luxembourg
    Telefunken
    Munchen

    yeah, so this show does hold
    a special place
    in memory
    of those summers (68, 69, 74, 75, 77)
    at my grandparents
    with that old Telefunken radio

    PEACE for ALL!

    back...

    ...in the Saddle, after some time away;
    Long Distance Runner Son
    graduation in Ithaca this past weekend
    fun family-party time
    his 81 yr old grandfather really enjoyed the festivities,
    parents just smiled at each other ALOT over the weekend,
    and the best part, could well be, that he is off of our payroll
    with full-time employment

    looking ahead to the new year, anniversary and all that...
    12/15/86 would be highly preferred
    over 7/9/95,
    and it's just one knucklehead's opinion

    for all my friends
    who have been FREAKING out
    over the last week or so
    about drones...

    ...today's selection
    is deadicated to y'all,
    so listen-up

    12/6/73 set 2
    at public hall in cleveland
    on the archive identifier #102750

    ...roll yourself a big ol' bone,
    take a big ol' hit,
    RELAX,
    and enjoy the TRIP

    if this one doesn't
    capture your imagination

    PEACE for ALL!

    Nice cover too. Practically encouraged you to roll a joint on it.

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!
