    July '78 And Short Shows

    The funny thing is we all think of them playing long extended sets but the short shows seem to concentrate their minds! Think Dick's 33 where they were told by Bill Graham to keep each set to an hour and July 12th '87 where they were on before Dylan joined them

    July '78 Box

    Just exactly perfect both in its music and the box aesthetic. Every show has the magic. The middle show from Omaha really captured my fancy a good while back in no small part due to Oro Thing 1's Oroboros Tale in which he meets Jerry after Madtown 2/3 (my first show) suggesting the band return to NE and what do you know 5 months later, almost to the day, they're playing Omaha complete with an indoor waterfall!

    so 7/5 spinning - np Estimated > Eyes!!

    edit - that was awesome!

    That St. Paul show was the surprise sleeper in there. And Willie's picnic at Arrowhead is a rip-roarer too for a short one. But you know which one is my favorite. Enjoy!
    Cheers

    Starting with something light today. The Big Chill soundtrack. Got Motown?

    Onward with Love Over Gold, Dire Straits. I have a lot of cassette tapes but this is the only Denon brand tape I own, an HD6 (type ll) and it sounds amazing. Telegraph Road never sounded better. Easily rivals any Maxell or TDK that isn't metal. So glad I got a restored high end '80s tape deck again in the rack. What a difference.

    RFK Box.
    Now that’s a Box that will fit on a shelf.
    But the sweet spot for Box size is as many people have previously said: June 76, Spring 77, July 78.
    Just the right size and just the right number of shows.

    Not that I’m not hoping for Boxomoxoa this year.

    Also drinking a cup of super dark roast Columbian Supremo.
    Roasted the beans a week ago.

    Just recently procured a July 1978 box. Nice to have all these shows. Guess I'll keep my stand alone Red Rocks.
    Currently on the Omaha show. Should have just enough time to finish the show before the TN-AR game.
    Y'all have a great day!

    Small but perfectly formed - just like the '78!

    I played that one last night - a Daves Picks. Late 77 'Dead at their best, with some biting guitar from Jerry.
