I also share your love of 1971 and am looking forward to the next release too I hold out hope will they finally release Stanford 1973 After many years of archival releases I am surprised Does anyone know why not So many
firsts and Wavy Gravy who is pure love

Sorry about no punctuation I try to post dozens of times it almost never works Thats why this forum is so dead possibly This forum gets an A for effort but a D for execution I would have given up long ago but you all got me thru the pandemic and I kinda like it here but Im not sure how much longer i can do this

One thing that occurred to me, listening to the two opening shows in the "River" box - 12/9 and 12/10/71 was that they seemed much more rocking in them, than in shows from Fall 1972 and all 1973. Interesting how this lineup evolved in the three years they were operating. In Fall 1971 they sound, to me, like a rock n' roll band, and this forms the bedrock for all they played.By Fall 1974 they sounded more like a jazz band - who sometimes played rock and roll - but did so in the way a jazz band would do it, rather than a rock band.

On the archive found a group called Guilty Pleasures.

Only 3 shows out there, but nicely recorded and nice song picks

Seems like Dave Nelson and David Gans are involved.

Worth the shot.

Happy Sunday, rockers!!!

In preparation for the new release, I have been listening closely to the November 1971 shows. The high quality of both Harding shows goes without saying, and the 7th is indeed classic. Even the chaotic Atlanta show has its moments, and continued thanks to John McCook, for sharing memories of that evening. The very solid and perpetually underappreciated San Antonio and TCU shows lead us nicely to the exceptionally strong, semi-classic, personally cherished Austin and Albuquerque shows. Pauley continues in that vein, and I'm expecting a substantial sonic upgrade for all of us. Let's all listen with an open mind and ear...............

Many of the October and November 1971 shows are actually very strong and foretold the future without Pigpen. Always worth a listen..................

Man approaches the unattainable truth through a succession of errors.........

Rock on!

....love me some Brent. We go way back, you know.
The girl at the seven minute two mark though. : . : .older Dead isn't as bright? Love it.
Edit.
Forgot about that Little Light video. '80's cheese.
Love it.

Wow!!!

I wanted to thank, Dave on the last release. When I opened it and pulled out the insert, it was a picture of Brent. Thought that was Nice. There is a longer story to this, but I have hit uptown.

"He could kick ass and take names with the Hammond B3 Organ!" - David Gans.
"He had everything to live for, why did he have to go now? - Jerilyn Brandelius
"He's Gone: A Tribute to Brent Mydland" now streaming on
dreamswedreamed dot com.
I'm very proud to release this last episode of DTV, a half hour tribute to Brent. This was the 18th episode, and took about two months to produce, write and edit. It includes interviews with many deadheads (it was Dead Head TV, after all). We also interviewed Dave Margen who played with Brent in Go Ahead, as well as authors Blair Jackson, David Gans, and Jerilyn Brandelius. We were fortunate to sit down with lyricist John Barlow, who shared his experience co-writing Brent's last songs.

OUCH.

can you imagine being at that game as a Colorado fan?

More evidence why I connect with sports from a very very very safe distance.
