    Grateful Dead Hour no. 979

    Week of June 25, 2007

    A taste of a wonderful musical event that took place in New York City in January of 2007: The American Beauty Project, a free two-day festival produced by the producer of the New York Guitar Festival. Saturday was Workingman's Dead; Sunday was American Beauty, interpreted by various musicians.

    I've got more from this show to share with you in the weeks to come.

    American Beauty Project
    Hi David- thanks for some vintage ABP =) Loved the project when they came to UMass '07 - the harmonies are divine and the songs are played in the right spirit. Thanks for the link - I did pick up a copy the night of the show. I am so excited - just got tickets to Levon Helm at Massey Hall, Toronto. Can't wait to hear Larry again - I miss him! Without him, Dylan just isn't the same...

    Easy Wind
    I am about 98% sure this is my favorite easy wind ever. The whole band is dead on... especially Pig and Jerry. If anyone knows of a sweeter easy wind let me know...
