Show notes

Sometimes events happen that push me to pick out a show for the Deadpod that I hadn't been thinking about at all.. such happened this week - first the newest "Road Trips" Release - Nov. 15, 1971 from Austin Texas arrived in my mailbox - I don't often gush over these but this is a good one! At about the same time a series of new releases on the tape collecting scene from legendary collector Charlie Miller - including this beauty from a legendary night at the Fillmore East in New York City, April 27th 1971. While this night is best known for the second set we'll hear next week (when the boys are joined on stage by the Beach Boys) - this first set has some mighty fine playing on it - including what is arguably the best "Hard To Handle" you'll find..Grateful DeadApril 27, 1971Fillmore East, New York City, NYset 1:1. Truckin', 10:54 2. Mama Tried, 3:143. Bertha, 6:334. Things Won't Be The Same, 4:385. Cumberland Blues, 6:29 6. Bobby McGee, 6:257. Loser, 6:518. Hard To Handle, 9:539. China > Rider, 10:4410.

This week's Deadpod features a wonderful show that happened on this date 38 years ago.. March 5, 1972 at Winterland in San Franscisco CA. While there are a few tape splices on this overall I think while this is not a pristine recording that's its quite listenable and the band is in fine fine form. Keith is new to the lineup and a great addition at this point (and listen for Wavy Gravy at the start of China Cat).. and of course its great to listen to Pigpen as well..We'll play the second set next week........

This week, bowing to listener requests ;) I've decided to bring you some Furthur - this comes to us from their New Year's Eve show in San Francisco CA, 12/31/09 - I decided to bring you some of the 2nd set then part of the jam after Midnight... this is a fine example of this new outfit and of course its great to hear these classic Dead songs with new life breathed into them.. Furthur is on tour of course right now, and I hope that you can catch one of their shows now, or this summer when they've already started booking dates...The Band:Bob WeirGuitar and VocalsPhil LeshBass Guitar and VocalsSunshine BeckerVocalsJeff ChimentiKeyboardsZoe EllisVocalsJohn KadlecikGuitar and VocalsJay LanePercussionJoe RussoDrums12/31/09 Bill Graham Auditorium, San Francisco CATime >Uncle John's BandAfter MidnightIII: Golden Road to Unlimited Devotion >Let It Grow >Cryptical Envelopment >Born Cross-Eyed >The Other One >Cryptical EnvelopmentYou can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod022610.mp3I hope you enjoy the show! and thanks for your support.

This week's Deadpod features the second set of this classic show from the Spring of 1990, appropriately enough I suppose, from Canada, given the Olympics and all :)Brent really shines on this set, as is very apparent in the Scarlet->Fire transition and in the soulful Hey Jude... Jerry favors us with the very last version of 'Believe It Or Not'.. all in all a wonderful set of music...Grateful Dead 3/22/90Copps Coliseum, Hamilton, Ontario CanadaSet2Scarlet Begonias >>Fire On The MountainSamson & DelilahBelieve It Or NotTruckin' >>Drums >>Space/Jam >>The Other One >>Hey Jude >>Sugar MagnoliaEncoreIt's All Over Now, Baby BlueYou can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod021910.mp3My sincere thanks for your support my friends, be well.

Show notes

This week I'm going to bring you the entire second set from this legendary show that took place on December 6th, 1973 in Cleveland Ohio. My first show, I had no idea what I was witnessing - but of course I'm sure it permanently altered my DNA :) This second set features one of the greatest versions of 'Here Come Sunshine' and of course, a legendary Dark Star. The length of this Deadpod is substantially longer than usual, but the music is so substantial that I know its well worth the investment ...Grateful Dead - December 6, 1973Public Hall - Cleveland, OHset 2:Ramble On RoseMe And My UncleHere Comes SunshineBig RiverDark Star ->Eyes Of The World ->Stella BlueSugar MagnoliaI hope that you find this music as magical as I do, I think it represents the band at one of the apexes of their history....You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod020510.mp3Thank you for your support, my friends..

Show notes

This week's Deadpod features, yes, another show from 1973.. but speaking of *this* show as 'another show from 73' strikes me as a sacrilege simply because not only was this show, my baptism to the Grateful Dead, its one of their all-time classics, in my opinion.While its true that your brains won't be melted until the Dark Star in the second set, the first set which we will play this week, features plenty of 'Good Old' Grateful Dead to get your blood flowin' during these cold Winter days....Grateful Dead - December 6, 1973Public Hall - Cleveland, OHSet 1: Bertha Mexicali Blues Loser Black Throated Wind They Love Each Other Beat It On Down The Line Deal El Paso Row Jimmy Greatest Story Ever Told China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider Around And AroundYou can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod012910.mp3I hope you enjoy it as much as I always have!! thanks for picking us up, and for your support..

Happy New Year!I hope you have a wonderful New Year!!!Today I decided that I would finish playing the excellent 2nd set from 3/24/86 that I started 2 weeks ago, rather than bring you a New Year's Eve show - in my opinion this is a fine second set that I'm sure you will enjoy!! It contains the very last Lost Sailor->Saint of Circumstance, and an outstanding Morning Dew - I know, there's no Sugar Magnolia, but the Midnight Hour Encore is a keeper!Grateful Dead March 24, 1986 The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PAMississippi Half Step>Women Are SmarterHigh Time*Lost Sailor >Saint Of Circumstance>Drumz>Space>Morning DewCrowd and TuningEncore: Midnight HourYou can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod010110.mp3Thanks for picking us up this week and for your kind support during 2009 - I'm hoping we can keep on rolling in 2010!

Show notes

This week's Deadpod has two unusual occurances - first a show from 1986 - a year I usually find quite depressing and an audience tape to boot! I think when you give this show a listen you'll understand why I decided to ignore my prejudices and post this classic show! This one starts with a smokin' Alabama Getaway into Greatest Story.. there's a *fine* Dire Wolf and I was always a fan of Brother Esau.. the rest of the set is very well played as well, and closes with the second Box of Rain in a week after having not been played since '73.. the crowd goes predictably wild.. :)I hope you enjoy the performance..Grateful Deadthe Spectrum, Philadelphia PA3/24/86 MondayAlabama Getaway [4:33] > Greatest Story Ever Told [4:00] ; Dire Wolf [3:06] ; Little Red Rooster [7:57] ; Brown Eyed Women [4:57] ; My Brother Esau [4:36] ; Ramble On Rose [6:52] ; El Paso [5:11] ; Box Of Rain [4:59]You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:http://media.libsyn.com/media/deadshow/deadpod121809.mp3Have a great week - as always many thanks for your kind support !
