Grateful Dead

Brian Eno also contributed to ex Hawkwind vocalist Bob Calvert 's solo albums Captain Lockheed and The Starfighters and Lucky Leif and The Longships The latter was the first album he produced , apparently. Captain Lockheed is the one though.
Both albums featured Paul Rudolph, who's band, the Pink Fairies played paint peeling versions of Tomorrow Never Knows live 1970-1971.

Great concert here in Lowestoft last night by jazz guitarists Jim Mullen and Nigel Price. Any ambulant Deadheads living in Britain could do a lot worse than check them out if they play locally.

Strange Bedfellows, 6 Degrees of Separation? Your choice.
What do the Dead, Brian Eno and the Beatles all have in common?
Short Answer: Tomorrow Never Knows. CORRECT!

Both Bands,(GD and 801 a.k.a. The 801), covered a song written by The Beatles, found on their Revolver Album. 801 Live version - played during a live show in London (IMHO that must be included in a Top 3 list of Best Covers of All Time, if not the #1 version.). Skeptics should listen to it and most will agree.

As for the Dead, they covered it 12 times, all during 1992 - 1994. Personal note: In the "there is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert" category, I was lucky enough to wind up sitting 8th Row Center for one of the 12 times played: 9/20/93 MSG. A show that included a rare double-encore (Baba OReily into TNK) and also had Edie Brickell as a special guest for the 2nd Set! If I didn't know better, what I heard was a song that felt like it was specifically written for the Dead.

A shout out to Colin G, who seems to have an envious eclectic taste in music.
Was blown away by your recent comment to my ENO post that named 4 of Eno's solo albums. King's Lead Hat is AMAZING, a favorite mine from first time ever hearing it. The tie in with the Talking Heads info, reminded me of Number 9, Number 9 /
Paul Is Dead / and the Walrus was Paul. Coincidentally these 3 well known references all came about from The Beatles. Another piece of trivia I never knew and just found was where they got the name 801 from: A song found of one of those 4 ENO solos album that includes a catchy melody found in a Chorus Refrain of The True Wheel, Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy: We are The 801, we are the central shaft.

Free advice...
Hopefully Hoh Rainforest is on your itinerary

....Phish live in Colorado.
Gotta catch a 6 AM flight to Seattle tomorrow morning. Olympic National Park, here we come! Look out! Im bringing mushrooms!

First show? 9/22/87 we got in went to the bathroom to leave a leak, it was packed people pissed in the sinks! Never did that again I always went before I went in the show never drank in the show so I never had to go while in the show(probably sweat it out) missed Hey Pocky Way got in in time for Althea. I went down jumped the hockey wall and stood in the Isle Phil's side for set 1 was nice nothing crazy! Set 2 opened with Spencer Davis GSL kinda threw things off Samson to the end was good! Made it to my seat during the break section W right up off the floor center straight back from the band perfect for listening? After that I always wanted to be center no matter how close or how far away. hahaha

Dunkirk, NY native right here, though I moved to CA as a child. Learned to swim in Lake Erie with all the belly up fish, 1973-1978.

Où est passée la noce

Stories son, we need stories!
Nice/Solid first show!
(Except maybe China Cat ; )

Attended the first night in Detroit last week. Epic! Have been on a Rush deep dive since. Lot to like on all of their albums, but partial to the era starting with Caress of Steel through Moving Pictures. 2112 was the soundtrack to many parties growing up and coming of age in the early 1980s.

I wish it was...

9/22/67, but yup 9/22/87 it was OK close enough to pretend ? I did get a chance to feel all of Jerry's energy in one rip he did turning up before 'Althea' see if you can catch that rip? It's very faint and not loud got to turn it up just to hear it, but I felt it like a lightning bolt? hahaha
