    October 15 - October 21, 2007
    We’re going to be doing some jumping around the calendar this week, to play you some music we didn’t get a chance to play for you the past few weeks.

    First, as we’re always interested in playing unique sequences and segues, we’ll pop into 1980 for a quick stop on 10/2/80 at the Warfield in San Francisco. From this very good show is the interesting third set opening sequence of Drums>Comes A Time>Lost Sailor>Saint of Circumstance.

    Next up, we’ll jump ahead 14 years, to 1994, specifically the very good Fall Tour. From 10/1/94 in Boston, we have the second set opener, Scarlet Begonias>Fire On The Mountain, and from a few nights later on 10/5/94 in Philadelphia, the very unique second set opening combination of Midnight Hour-Cumberland Blues.

    From the Fall Tour of 1976, specifically 9/30/76 in Columbus, OH, we have the second set opening Lazy Lightning>Supplication.

    Jumping back a bit to 1972, here are two songs from the 4/7/72 show at Wembley Empire Pool (subsequently Wembley Arena) in London, Chinatown Shuffle and a rocking Me and My Uncle. Bobby wasn’t kidding when he said about these two Wembley shows in 1972, “man, we played like demons at those shows.”

    Check in next week when we’ll be playing some great music from your favourite band. As always, we welcome and encourage your questions and comments.

    what's this doing here?
    I mean in the Forums? (under Administration: Technical Problems) I guess it might serve as a nice sidetrack to go off on. However, Taper's Section is its real home...

WARNING: Whiner comment ahead- I was dumbfounded when Dick's Picks chose 10/14/83 instead of the next night. And now it's ignored again. That 2nd set is one of the best of the 80's. The China>Rider seethes, the Playin wind down into China Doll is exquisite and space>St. Stephen is one of the great exhaltations of all time. And you'll love the Brokedown ending. Oh well, must be just me......

beenwaytoolongatsea TigerTrance - you could not be more spot on IMO I was at the garden on 10/11 and 10/12, and the hartford shows the climax of space into stephen the second time was almost beyond this realm. and if you listen to the first stephen there are points, or a point at which they kind of fall apart so I always felt like they intended to do it only once but didn't nail it so they did it again, and in hartford they nailed it! nice description of the first part of the 10/15 set it's right on

I saw both the 10/14 & 15/83 & 84 Hartford shows. I remember quite clearly at the time that 10/14 was overall the better show, but seeing St. Stephen (especially when Phil stepped to Bobby's mike to sing "fortune comes a calling line" was the all time highlight of 31 shows. The real puzzle, as far as DP goes is why put such a lame recording of 10/14/83 set one out there at all. I would have put set 2 from 10/14 and all of 10/15 (have it on SBD, first set holds up just fine). Following year, same two shows are quite good, 10/14/84 has some one of a kind sound effects tacked on to Bobby's playing, and 10/15 has one of the most spacey Playins' in the 80's, all well worth seeking out.

Dear Serious Minded Tapers Section Correspondents. I have just received this email about a hard to refuse offer. Do you think I should take it up? Dear mr Badger Cosmic Sir! I am Theophilus P Wildebeest and I am pleased to get across to you for a very urgent and profitable business proposal, this may come to you as a Surprise as we have not met before. But I can trust a Person of your caliber. The intended business is thus, I am the associate executive assistant director consultant of RICHER DONORS Company as such, of which I have information has received substantial deposit in most secure and infamous heavy RHINO vault of riches equivalent in your currency of 10,000 Silver Discs. After these several unsuccessful attempts to locate the true inheritor I decided to seek over the Internet, to locate any entitled person or persons but of no avail, hence I contacted you. I have to be sincere and honest with you, I contacted you to assist me in reclaiming the Silver Discs and property left behind before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by Rhino Vault where these huge amount is lodged. Consequently, Rhino Vault issued me a notice to provide entitled person or have the Disc destroyed within the next 21 official working days. Since I have in my honest endeavour been unsuccessful in locating the entitled person I seek your consent to present you as rightful owner, so that the proceeds of this account valued can be paid to you and then you and I can share the silver discs with you according to following (1) 45% for you as the account owner (2) 50% for me (3) 5% will be set aside to defray all incidental expenses. it will be very easy to convince the RICHER DONORS company since i shall make available to you materials and information with which a successful claim shall be placed on the vault. I shall be your guidance and instructor throughout the duration of this. All i require is your honest co-operation to enable us seeing this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. As soon as you agree to co-operate with me, I will meet with the officials of rhino vault so that silver discs and digital may be transferred to your property for delivery by myself (Theophilus P Wildebeest) So if you are intrested, send a reply to me immediately and in your reply please include (mr badger, cosmic) your private phone and your fax numbers. Urgency has to be implied and this business must strictly be a deal between both of us. However if you are really sure of your integrity towards this proposal reply and call me immediately. BEST REGARDS, Theophilus P WILDEBEEST
