    Cheers, Ian: I saw them listed among the all time top 'prog +/-' albums when I went down Kate's Gnirdolog (sp?) rabbit hole a couple of weeks back. Based on your and Dennis's reviews, this is now on my radar for a "self-care" Christmas gift.

    Loading 10/10/76 for off hours later today ... I'm hoping DaP 53, when it arrives in 3-4 weeks, will have some of the same 'x-factor'. How about today for the 54 + bonus disc announcement?? As this has stretched out, I'm beginning to channel Waiting for GOGD (Godot) here!

    Proudfoot: Sending kind thoughts for good results.

    31 I’ve heard, but will gladly rehash, 30 sounds real good so far…

    And Four Winds…UZH!
    Thanks for the grooves and magic!

    Never heard of them and didn't have any.

    Thanks to the magic of you tube, I was able to download 3 of their albums, including Grey & Pink.

    I like what I've heard so far, thanks for the heads up.

    Pointers to new stuff is one of the great things about the forum. (everyone knows Deadheads have great taste in music!)

    A 10/10 album if ever there was one!

    That was a FUN listen! Like hearing it new with big ears.

    Must admit I'd like to experience the Klipsch subwoofer full body Phil - one thing the headphones can't deliver. That upgrade is probably down the way a bit. I think Phil's position in the mix shifted from left Set I to center Set II, and he was higher in the mix, but I wouldn't call it Phil heavy at least as experienced on cd. The segue out of a gorgeous Stella back into Playing was wildly beautiful.

    BC motivated me to finish the DHB Friday with 12/10/89 from the sweet LA run.
    Fun show to finish a really enjoyable run!

    So picked up today with these two from Oakland.
    Not sure what to think about the 27?
    Certainly good overall but sometimes weird anomalies or…?
    Interesting Tom Thumbs, I’ll have to decipher Phil’s alt lyrics…
    Dave has this on his “possibilities” list (that doesn’t exist ; )
    It’s a good show, but compared to the plethora of excellent shows from this period it feels like it’d be a right street, wrong house deal?
    The first seems to take a bit to really gel, another kinda creeper?
    Second set doesn’t mess around and the Playing through Wheel sequence is superb. The Dew is ok but? Kinda funky, think JG was having some tech difficulties. The 28 starts out strong and and keeps rolling with a good solid but perhaps not RJ second? Need to see video to figure out what’s up with the long intro to Little Light?
    Definitely need to rehit these and LA sometime, but just don’t have it now and trying to finish my year out…

    MARYE: how many times we gotta tell ya not to hit the big red button! JK ; )
    No worries!
    Onward!

    Interesting fact

    The Sun Ra Arkestra are still going - led by the 101 year old Marshall Allen. If you get a chance to see them I really recommend it - going off what they were like about 5-6 years ago. The first time I saw them must have been over 20 years ago, supporting the MC5. At the end of the MC5's set both bands came on and played together. And man, they were loud !

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?
