GOOD MORNING LITTLE SCHOOLGIRL
I've gotten several requests for this show, which features some feral Dead music from the Anthem of the Sun era.
Also included is Junior Parker's 1957 recording "Next Time You See Me," which Pigpen sang with the GD to great effect, and Pig himself singing his song "Operator" on American Beauty. I wonder why they didn't do that one live more often? I'm only aware of one performance, at the Fillmore East on 9/18/70.
Every Wednesday, we post a program from the Grateful Dead Hour archives for your enjoyment and enlightenment. You can browse or search the playlists at gdhour.com or on the GD Hour Search page, and let me know what program(s) you'd like to hear by emailing me at gdhour@dead.net.
Thank you for listening!
