    Sorry - Diverted from the proper thread topic

    Road Trips vol 1, number 2 - October '77 & (later) the killer bonus disc material.
    : ))

    Edit: Just re-read the 'liner notes' for this one, by Steve Silberman. So sorry to hear of his recent passing ... Belated and fond thanks in memory of Steve i.e. for sharing all his love of the music/scene with us over these many years!

    Longtime fan - had all the ECM records/tapes (Travels is my favorite) and caught him w/Lyle and band in '89, IIRC, or perhaps it was '90,? at the Greek Theater ... Thanks to my aunt & uncle for the tix. It was a great show. Saw him at the Orpheum a few years later as well when he had morphed over to the (fairly cool, but not quite as great) angular Thai-like sound/album ...
    Selections from Under the Missouri Sky was the 'soundtrack' for our wedding - music for guests while seated, plus both the procession in & exit out. I still love his pure jazz playing - when that mood strikes - with the many duets and players over the years. So glad Vermonters had a chance to see him in such an intimate setting. These days however, I listen to much more Dead (heh heh).

    Edit insert: Jeez, how many don't you let that deal go downs was that? Going for the record number?
    Finishing up my mini-tour of April '78.
    That dang 30 days thing sucked me in.
    Then the DiP 3 vinyl showed up.
    "But I'll get back on my feet again
    The good lord willing
    If he says I may"
    Still have DiP 52 in the wrapper, lol.
    A bounty of riches.
    Cheers
    That was us about 25 rows up, middle right side at Red Rocks in '03. The guy in the Shakedown t-shirt. Love that Gilbert Shelton of the zoot-suited invisible man swingin' his chain! Wish they'd bring that one back. I'd put the sticker on my car again for sure.
    Everybody who was there raise your hand. Or post. HF, was you there?

    Memory lane, and where were we?

    Solo Pat sounds awesome!
    Saw him several times but always with Lyle and band.
    Been digging my new Off-ramp and Missouri discs.

    Dead on the Rocks! There both 03 & 04, good sheet Mon!
    Wonder how many folks here inadvertently ran into each other BITD?

    And S-W-B elsewhere tells tales of Merriweather 85…sigh

    But enough nostalgia…where TF were we?
    Oh yeah, 12/14/90
    And

    S-W-B - Killer disc - gonna jump right in. (Edit - so very good!)

    Keith Fan pretty much (completely?) stopped posting here but pretty darn sure it is him posting on the Steve Hoffman Music Forum "The Grateful Thread" under user name KeithGodchaux. Posted in the last week there re 11/30/73. Not in communication with him, just something I noticed.

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!
