    CD postcards of the hanging

    As part of my side trip into Bob Dylan's big three plus a compilation, I am listening to Postcards again the first time in a while.

    Such great songs.

    Tragically, the title (and some of the lyrics) refers to an episode of evil in our nation's history. Ugh.

    Bob Dylan: a titan in the world of music and culture.

    Luckily I got to attend three of his performances

    1986 (not with GD)
    1987 with GD
    2000 at the Gorge when he opened for Phil Lesh and Friends

    That show in 2000 was really good

    ...an enormously (is that a word?) long-time since I've pulled this one out to actively listen,
    and what is this the X-factor you speak about Dave...?

    WOW!!!

    hey now, maybe just maybe, when you release a BOXSET,
    maybe you could consider releasing TWO separate shows instead
    of ALWAYS just ONE show.
    After all, it is an 8 show box release...

    I'll be passing on the BOXSET, but will pick-up this X-factor...
    ...and keep up the good work!

    Peace for All!

    Good, but I think 14 is better.
    But they all bow down at the feet of the master 10/16/89, which I finished also and am still digging in my mind this AM!

    Onward to Philly! Cause ya just gotta poke around…

    Been working on these last couple daze…
    11 is ok, but after all the previous fireworks, perhaps a bit flat or subdued?
    12: ditto, like the 11 better though.
    14: more like it. First set perhaps takes some settling, but by the big set finale, the band we’ve become used to over summer of 89 is back!
    And the second set is thus another beauty eh!

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!
