    Providence, RI - another show from the 30 Trips Porch Crusher. The night before at the Spectrum is part of the 60 Years Box.

    Very very fine Let It Grow to close Set I. Unusual jammed out intro into Samson to start Set II - cool beans! Edit - a seriously fun Set II!! Wowza!!

    Great sound and performance, from the start to the finish - as are all three of the DK shows from this tour.

    Note: I was fortunate enough to visit this venue, albeit briefly, some 9 years on from this show - along with the amusement park around it more extensively, while on an exchange program. I stayed with the family (of Lars) Rasmussen, and a man of that name eventually became the prime minister of Denmark (!) ... But visually he bears just a passing resemblance to the young man I knew there. It's a common name; I guess it's possible that it is/was him.

    I recall it was an amazingly happy and calm, free and safe place. Many folks welcomed me into their home and took gracious care for my good experience/s. We two teenagers could ride the train into Copenhagen and explore really - anywhere - at that time. He showed me all the standard tourist spots of course, along with the less heralded (cool) locales. We went to Aarhus and out to Odense by bus as well. And so, I will always have a fondness for most everything/everyone Danish, and all the good things they bring to the world.

    I like to think that a bunch of their fine spirit shines through (channeled by the GD) greatly in both this show and in Aarhus, along with the 3rd date that features the television broadcast.

    Prost!

    More of the same: it’s not fall 73, but mostly pretty dern good and JG has been consistent and more energetic than some previous from the year!
    So far, only the atlanta shows would have been a disappoint.

    Will do Joey. Though it may be a bit as I may switch gears for while and do the final death tour later…chever way, I’ll try to report back asap!

    “Joey, Joey, what made them come and blow you away”
    Unfortunately there can be some tribalism within our culture just like elsewhere. And I’m sure you can understand some of this just from hanging out on dnet. etc…it’s cool folks dig what they dig, but some seem obsessed with proving what THEY like is best! I don’t compare apples to oranges so I find good sheet everywhere, I mean it is the dang nam GD!
    Don’t let anybody influence what you dig! My advice is always to not read online crap until after I listen, if at all, “if you get confused just listen to the music play”, not the “noise”!
    Ok, onto 5/21…

    DaP 16, CD 3…most definitely in my top ten single best discs of all time!

    :) that's what I got right now.

    Oro,
    Can you give us a rundown of your favorites of '95 when you are done?
    I only got to see the Grateful Dead in '94 and '95, I have always thought that the tapes aren't all that bad and a lot of people never bothered to listen to them, some of it is quite nice.
    There was a time when a few older heads would be down right mean to me about it, telling me "you didn't see the Grateful Dead"

    2 Meter Sessions & 5/16/81

    A couple weeks ago friend linked 2 meter Sessions #461 with JJ Cale - good stuff!! Will have to take a deeper dive in what's available.

    Listening to 5/16/81 (Disc 1 - Barton Hall from Porch Crusher #1). Edit - fun listen - had forgotten that SBD source ends after the Nobody's Jam and its an audience from Stella Blue through the UJB encore.

    Found something new to me

    Stumbled across something/place/show called "2 Meter Sessions". Looks like a Dutch tv show with musical people.

    Anyhow, youtube had a playlist of 476 cuts from this show. All studio quality. I grabbed them all, but I thought this would make a nice background sound when people are over.

    I think i searched for 2 meter sessions.

    Throwing it out there.

    Thought these shows were supposed to be terrible?
    Not so so far. More consistent than Atlanta, and JG even speaks/jokes to the crowd. Auds not full frequency response, but clean and not much crowd.

    Finishing out the tour while we chew on the big GD news!
    Edit: not the best listen with all the good distractions, but sounds like really good so far (drums)…nice Days Between.

    And onto 5/19/95 with hockey.

Hey All, Been milling around in the Red Clay and Straight Life recordings. These are Freddie Hubbard's Masterpieces. The musician line up on these sessions are excellent. Highly recmmended and a fine way to take a break from the Dead...

12/6/73. Kind of a meandering one, that doesn't necessarily get to the point until the 37-minute mark. I think it's good to not have much of an agenda sometimes. Eyes of the world kicks in and is smokin' good. Killer Here Comes Sunshine. Why do so many great shows come out of Cleveland?
