Grateful Dead

5/3/72
Yummy!!!

Such an amazing set of shows! > Basically required listening
.
I think just about everyone, everywhere, should own a copy.

; )

....drone shots are cool.

Funny that you guys mention Paris shows. I just pulled those two out of the trunk for some E72 magic!!

Heard 3 songs from Getting Killed (2025 release) on a public radio Tiny Desk Concert series article. All were mellow and since it's my 1st venture into them I would have to say pretty boring. I'm sure there must be something there and from what everyone here is saying it will be worth searching out, but from only this exposure I wouldn't even bother. Didn't really see the musicianship and on these 3 songs the singer's voice didn't draw me in either. Rather monotone. (The songs were Husbands, Cobra, and Half Real.)
Cheers

I don't know much from them but i do like Hungersite and Animal. There is a cool vid on u tube of Goose doing Animal with Animal from The Muppet Show. It's from Newport Folk Festival 7/29/23. It's a fun watch!

Theta 7 - Orchestra of the Upper Atmosphere
This will be their last album. I recommend all 7 albums

My friend took me to the 11/7/24 show in Pittsburgh. It was ok, but I thought they sounded to much like Phish (who I like) The young folks were digging it though.

Believe I saw them a couple times on nugs?
Ok, decent musicians etc, but like much of “jam” bands didn’t take me anywhere, just endless noodling (though I hate that word). I know it doesn’t make sense that a 35 minute DS does, but some how, TGOGD always seem to eventually transport me someplace, even if the destination is seen unclearly lol Even The ABB, who I love and saw several times, can sometimes fall into the former more than the latter.
And lyrics…reason I’m not a big Fan of Phish either. Their great musicians but their songs and silly lyrics just don’t really resonate for me? I mean not everyone can have a Robert Hunter, or Barlow for that matter!
I admit I haven’t spent a lot of time on them, though I did spend some back late nineties as the college kids I was in a band with were influenced and trying to write like Phish and Zappa. Somewhere I have a copy of A Live One, and I worked with a guy briefly who would play shows on-site. I did like some of the good, big weird jam stuff, but just never connected with their songs per say…but hey, that’s just one old bastards take, so probably meaningless, though I would ask that you please get off my lawn!

So now back to my quest and 1966…

Cool sheet Colin! I only briefly check a tad bit of Heaven and Hell, but I liked it. Sorta reminds me of my Oregon albums? Sorta…

"WIIILLLLLSSOON!"

Richard Goode playing Beethoven's Piano Sonata 32, op. 111

Paris72 like Lydeum26,great shows; got it on vinyl with Wembley 4/8 to find a balance (Dark star/Other one); just going on with april78,not a favorite show, but Huttington could match Duke; dave57 reach the coast of this brave new world;
Buick 6 (lu Williams band) play with others worth a listen
Charles Lloyd & the marvels vanished gardens, /sems like biograph fo a retired gardener like me
this one for Daverock :Gong 2032 amazing sound spacy & trippy, a strange remain of their best albums(-angels eggs/ fying tea pot / you)

After another classical compilation, some Bill Evens, then onto 1966
6/1 meh
6/15 Very Nice! From DG GD hour. Not sure what number and his notes say date is unknown? Buts it’s a real nice one and only 35 minutes so nice to get a quick taste of primal!
7/1 another nice one worth checking out!
7/17 Fillmore another nice one! (2 actually ? both good)
And yes I went out of sequence as time dictated… mañana I’ll swing back to 7/3 from Boxilla and hopefully 7/16/66…
Onward!

Don - always good to see Gong mentioned on here. I haven't played this cd for a few years, so I'll give it a listen later on. You were right when you said it has the flavour of their classic mid 70's albums. This was the first album since then that both Daevid Allen and Steve Hillage played on.

They also both performed in the live concerts Gong played following the albums release, and before Gong came on, Steve Hillage did a solo set that focussed on his late 70's albums. A night to remember - if you still have a memory, that is.

on JGB 3/1/80 can never be loud enough !! :)

Good old Dave's Picks #50. These Palladium shows are hot. Sound quality is A+. Need to compare these to the other heavy weights of the month as far as sound quality goes. Be well out there.

7/3/66 from Boxilla !
7/29&30/66 p/o offa the First Album 50th bonus !!!
7/16/66 from the Fillmore now
8/1/66 interesting!

I am glad you are into the RAW stuff.

Miles Davis

Primal Baby!
Where’s our Primal box dammit!
66-70! Maybe a fun taste of 65?
66 = 2 discs
67 = 3 discs
68 = 5 discs
69 = 10 discs
70 = 5 discs
That would provide both a somewhat comprehensive historical evolutionary consideration, as well as an entertaining one, in a slightly above average box, but not a overly large/expensive one…

Road Trips Vol. 4, No. 4. Soundtrack for dinner prep.; Mediterranean cod with roasted potatoes and rosemary cream sauce.

I believe that it is going to be a box set from 1973, with 2/9/73 as part of the box set

Last night I played Birth of the Dead.

My kid just sent me a link to these guys.

I like a lot so far, not a lot on the tube, but I grabbed all 35 cuts.

Interesting mix of sounds.

This might be something Vguy will like. (lookin' at you kid)

They'll be included on my next release :-)

Been working on a group called The Motet, on the archive. I like a lot.

....Get Ready.
Not a bad track on this one.
Kid Dennis? Thanks dude. Blushing over here. I will check them out after I flip to Side Two.

....didn't know what to expect Dennis, but hip-hop/alternative/rap wasn't on my radar.
Lyrics are good, they swing and the bottom end is deep. Tipper Gore would hate them.
Speakers at a buffet.
Not bad. Not bad at all.
Winter Olympics on the screen.

Gooey drippy

Doesn’t get much better…..more releases from the 60’s please (northwest 68/69 box)

I'm looking for a program that will split a LARGE mp3 file into small tracks.

Seems they want to stop making audio books in physical media,,, they want you to use audible. Found a place that sells audio books in mp3 downloads. Problem the book is 1 eight hour track!

I'd like to split in new tracks every X minutes.

Anyone doing this and have a product they like to use?

Thanks

Red Rocks! (attended)
Who is this new guy?
Oh boy, now we're talkin'.
Great way to start the holiday weekend.
Cheers and may you receive a valentine.
Edit : Althea>Passenger slam together like freight cars for the 1st set ender!
Edit 2 : Oh yeah, it has an early stand alone Lost Sailor. I think I labelled that Bob's New Song.

.
A brilliant show > right in there with Austin, TX two nights earlier.

Fairport Convention Liege And Lief

Blood On The Tracks

found a splitting program (for free), called wavepad.

Says it can rip cd also,,, gotta try to see if it will label tracks.

It did split the 8 hour track in 100 5 min ones,,,, you can choose how to split.

so far so good.

thanks

Instead of 12-inch diameter LP’s, mine are only 8.4-inch diameter (70%).
.
Now listening to 5-19-74 vinyl.

68-02-14 RT vol2-2
brillant Eleven, dew, and beat it on first set, top second with incrediblspanish jam- allgator;. A good recording and good sound. .

6/4/78
California bliss
A rarity: after Tennessee Jed in the first set Jerry says "Thanks."
And it's not even the set closer.
That's rare. When he does say it, it's after the show closer.
Well...now you know.

Spinning now.
Excessive amount of lame graphics and video that is not of the band.
.
I got it on VHS in 1990 and watched it a lot. Also connected a tape deck to the VCR and made a cassette recording of it to listen to in the car. Didn’t have a lot of good sounding tapes at the time.

I hit up Dicks Picks 13 and Dave's Picks Vol. 13

Yummy

....three this year, which is the max.
And if you have a wall calendar, this February is a perfect square.
2036 will be the next one. Cheers!
Happy Valentines! ❤️
