Grateful Dead Hour no. 554

By David Gans

Grateful Dead Hour by David Gans

Week of May 3, 1999

By request, a three-week series presenting the complete show of June 23, 1988 at Alpine Valley.

Weird thing about this recording: Sound man Dan Healy, that irrepressible experimenter, fed the vocals and Jerry's guitar into an automatic panning device that swished from left to right and back again about 60 times a minute. It seems unlikely that this effect was used on the recording but not in the house - anyone who attended that show recall hearing this weird effect?

All of set 1 in this week's post; set 2 will come in the next two weeks.

Enjoy!

Just getting into the Dead and these radio hours are a good way to hear stuff before spending hard earned moolah especially as there is so much stuff around.

that night at alpine was positively swishing left to right. it sort of wigged me out. i thought it was the shrooms playing tricks on me. i also recall garcia's energy flagging these last 2 nights--i recall i thought he was suffering diabetic symptoms.
