Grateful Dead

Merry Christmas, fellow rockers!!!

Nice to see Aarhus get some love, it's one of my favorite E72 shows. along with Newcastle. Two great shows that rarely get talked about.....

In regard to Kingswood, I've told the tale before, long motorcycle ride up there, the three song encore made it all worthwhile........

Christmas... is not an external event at all, but a piece of one's home that one carries in one's heart.....

Rock on,

Doc
The earth has grown old with its burden of care,
But at Christmas it always is young,
The heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair,
And its soul full of music breaks the air,
When the song of angels is sung.......

Ripper!
Not sure I’ve heard the whole show before?
Quite the Sugaree! And then continuing up and onward!
Rut roh, too much listening, not enough house cleaning lol

S-W-B: solid first show! I’d say that one hangs well with the previous night?

Sun King. Cool story. Seems I’m going to have to check out JF as he keeps popping up?

Love the triple encore with the Band on this! I had first listened to the FM broadcast on that night - and recorded it onto Maxell IIs ... And therefore it had many, many replays between then and my 1st show in the fall - 10.14 - Hartford.

Billy, I'm a bit jealous. Never got to see him. The closest was I took a day trip to St. Louis one time, and I saw Fahey was playing that night, but I couldn't talk any of my friends to stay (of course no one had even heard of him). But I did get to see another hero, Dave Van Ronk, play one time in Atlanta. Small bar, less than 100 people. It was supposed to be 2 different shows, but with so few people, no one was asked to leave. I was by myself, and the owner sat down to to say hi, and when I told him I specifically drove in town to see Dave, he took me over to meet him....!

The Six Triple Eight

WOW. Never heard of this event.

Great movie.

Going with the Wiseman as I believe that’s Nitecat!
Sounds good!

PF, yuck yuck

Wonderland…yeah it was lol.
Being locals familiar with the border scene, we dropped exactly on the international border figuring one way or another we’d be through customs before the power came on, but that ment we were already fully powered when we hit wonderland, which in my minds eye looked and felt like we were in a life sized Flintstones episode. You had to enter through the amusement park filled with scared civilians and kiddies everywhere! It’s a miracle we didn’t get the fear lol oh, and I can’t remember which year as this happened both times!
Great White North eh! Those were the daze…

Happy Happy whatever your into, hope it’s filled with Dark Stars, cold frosties, and Dennis’ cheesecake; )

Aarhus
Is a very very very fine hus

E72

DREAM-ON!!

5.13.1972 - Lille
It warmed up a bit, and the skies cleared - offering a bit of inspiration, visually. So France was the place to stay.
The sound, especially once they get it all sorted (w/funny banter at the beginning) is great - Jerry rings out all over the place, Keith is very well represented/recorded here, and Billy's drums are super clear. I Really like the BTW and Loser + China-Rider, the Playing and the lovely Other One excursion into He's Gone - as opposed to the reverse order that frequently goes down ...
It's fairly well a stunner of a show, as Phil identified fondly in his book. His playing throughout indicates he was 'feelin' it'. So, even if it might be a bit shorter and therefore deemed one of the 'lesser' E'72 shows, it's still way up there for me.

Sidenote: Aarhus, Denmark is similar - not in tone though, as it has a much warmer (indoor, all wood) ambience - in the manner of being both exploratory and chock full of excellent versions/songs - it's another great listen.
Cheers!

I saw him play at the tiny Freight & Salvage in Berkeley, maybe 100 people there. He was incredible! It was in December and he played Silent Night. Fun Times!
