Grateful Dead

This is one of those shows where we're so very lucky to have the tape that we have. Mike Tannenbaum's recording gear was supposedly concealed inside a wheelchair. Once your ear gets used to the recording quality, though, this show has some ferocious passages that are absolutely worth hearing. I come back to the Cryptical->Other One->Cryptical->Sugar Mag time and time again. Garcia is just a demon dancing across Other One. And the Sugar Mag... a song that would go on to be played hundreds of times, but here has barely been done a dozen... Garcia's solo is effortlessly rockin' right out of the gate, just so assured. And beautiful harmonies from the boys.

figured I'd post here since someone had revived this thread

i am listening to the Doors break on Through Center Coliseum, Seattl 1970

Currently listening to and learning Deep Elem Blues ... i noticed there are 2 dominant versions, live at harpur College version, which is a slowed down real bluesy version, and then the more classic and common "bluegrass" version as heard in the acoustic and JGB shows...

wondering if anyone knows what these two styles are called in the dead/music world, as I'm trying to learn the Harpur College version and having trouble searching for lessons on that specifically that version ("real bluesy version" and "harpur college version" isn't working in the searches)

Much love!

I'm off to get...

Gong Live in Lyon 1972 as a certainty. Mind your head!
Charlie Parker as a maybe.

Can't think what else I saw - those are the ones I remember when I had a look last night.

Well, I'm not off anywhere - I'll be poking around online.

Listening to Mason's Children and New Speedway Boogie, 2 Dead songs which were largely overlooked by both band and fans for quite a while.

I'm listening to Roy Kim's "Only If" right now and it makes me sleepy coz it's a ballad song.

Don’t miss this title from bassist Cleveland Eaton from 1974: Cleveland Eaton, Plenty Good Eaton.
This record refuses to get off my turntable deck.
Sorely underappreciated…
