Dead show/podcast for 12/14/07 Dec 18, 2007

Show notes

This week a Christmas time show in its entirety for your enjoyment.. This show features a well played first set highlighted perhaps by Phil's "Tom Thumb" and a great Bird Song.. The second set features a wonderful Iko, Iko to open (with Clarence Clemmons on sax) leading into a great Playin'->Crazy Fingers->Uncle John's Band.. The double encore is also quite satisfying.

Show notes

This week we will finish listening to the 2nd set of the Grateful Dead's historic 10/16/74 performance at Winterland in San Francisco. This is a very jamming, almost experimental piece of music as the band really explores some different spaces, especially on songs like Eyes of the World. I hope you'll enjoy it..Grateful Dead WinterlandSan Francisco, CA 10/16/74 Wharf Rat > Space >Eyes Of The World; Big River; Ship Of Fools ; Truckin' >GDTRFB> Uncle John's Band ;Johnny B.

Show notes

This week a new soundboard release of the first of the five "retirement" shows from the Winterland from October of 1974. These justly famous shows were of course immortalized on "The Grateful Dead Movie" but deserve to be enjoyed individually as much as possible. Phil's spectacular playing more than makes up for Donna's occasional off-key wailing ;).Grateful Dead Winterland Arena San Francisco, CA 10/16/74 - WednesdayMexicali Blues ; It Must Have Been The Roses ; Beat It On Down The Line ; Scarlet Begonias ; Me And Bobby McGee ; Tennessee Jed ; Cumberland Blues ; Playing In The BandThis segment is what exists in soundboard format of the first set. I am very glad you enjoyed last week's complete show. I'll do it again - but am not sure that I could do so every week.. but keep your eyes open we'll do it again soon!

Show notes

This week I'm trying something crazy - this week's Deadpod is an entire, complete show from 1976. This is a *huge* file folks, and I hope that you are all able to listen to this and enjoy this really unique show. I'm doing this as a favor to one of the friends of the Deadpod who is running in this weekend's NYC Marathon, and hoped to get to hear a complete show. I've also had requests for a mid-70s show and a 'help->slip->Franklin's'.. well this show has an epic Franklin's so I really hope that all of you have the time and bandwidth to hear it all.. Thanks for your understanding and we'll see how this one goes - I couldn't possibly post something this large every week, but what the hell, let's see how it goes!! And Best of luck to you David, and anyone else in the Marathon!

Show notes

This week we continue with this marvelous show from May 25th, 1972 in London. We get the last two songs of the first set - including a great Brokedown Palace, then we get what exists of the second set. I'm a sucker for a great Pigpen tune and Chinatown Shuffle sure sounds good to me... Lucky for all of us there's a fabulous Uncle John's->Wharf Rat->Dark Star that survived in tact.. I also wanted to thank everyone once again who contributed to the fall pledge drive.. You folks are SO great! thanks so much!

This week we'll hear the remainder of the great show from June 26th, 1984 from the Merriweather Post Pavilion. This set shows us the great interplay of light and dark in the Dead's music - songs I really love like Don't Need Love, He's Gone and Stella Blue are interspersed with rocking numbers like Wang Dang Doodle, Good Lovin' and Around and Around. There's even a 'Day Job' encore - it had been long enough that I'd heard one of these that I enjoyed it ;) I hope you'll enjoy this great set too.. I also want to sincerely thank those of you who've contributed during our Fall fundraising drive.

Deadshow/podcast for 9/28/07 Sep 28, 2007

Show notes

It took me a bit to decide what to bring you this week, but after I ran across this show I knew it was the right choice.. This is one of those classic live Dead sets from 1969, this one comes from Boulder CO, April 13th. It features everything you\'d expect - great Pigpen raps, wild, far-out jamming and some magnificent moments from Garcia - most notably on the Dark Star and the Eleven. Personally, I\'m always blown away by a really well-played and heartfelt Death Don\'t Have No Mercy - it ends the set I\'m bringing you this week. I hope you enjoy it... (note there are some anomalies - Lovelight cuts early, Doin\' that Rag is cut at the start and the Dark Star has a splice.. still I think the outstanding quality more than makes up for them.... )Grateful Dead Ballroom - University of Colorado Boulder, CODate 4/13/69 - Sunday
