So Many Downloads....

So I wasn't able to get back into the Dead lists. To make up for that I decided to upload some things for you guys. Well lets get on with the shows.

I haven't got a chance to listen to the 1/20 show yet but 1/19 is amazing. Expressway>Imagine is priceless with highly emotional guitar work from Jerry during Imagine.

1968-07-28 Jerry Garcia/Mickey Hart/Jack Cassidy
This is about a half hour jam with 3 great musicians. They go into some pretty amazing places.

Next up is something I have had for a while. It is called Jammin At The Edge Of Magic. Someone mixed together a bunch of jams (Infrared Roses style) during the Bruce Era. This is 2 discs of almost seamless jams. Pretty interesting stuff.

The Spinjunkies are a group of DJs that have mixed the Grateful Dead with Jay-Z's Black album. Very much inspired by Danger Mouse's Grey Album where he mixed The Black Album with The Beatles White Album. There is a bonus track featuring Outkast's Miss Jackson with West LA Fadeaway.

I love this concert from the Talking Heads. It is very high energy and very fun. Great driving music. 1984-01-25.

Worchester 40 Years Earlier

The Grateful Dead played in Worchester 4-20-69. That would mean that The Dead in a way celebrated that great show with these past Worchester shows. However, The Dead didn't play Dark Star which was a stand out song from the 69 show. Just a little piece of history to go along with this tour.

200 Good Alligator Costumes....

This is an interview that was on Rockline on 12-11-89 with Garcia and Weir. I really dug this find. It was a call in show on the radio. The people that called in were pretty much in shock that they were actually talking to Jerry and Bobby. The questions were a mixture of humor and seriousness. I didn't include any of the songs since they were straight off the albums. I figure if you are downloading this you already have Built To Last and In The Dark.

It's Been A While

Lately I have been pretty busy. Almost everyday has been a new disc golf experience. I lost a disc on Thursday in the bottom of a swamp. That wasn't too cool. On Friday I saw a band called The Malah. They are based in Greenville, SC but are a regional band. This was the first time I have seen this band as a 3 piece. Every other time I have seen them they have played with 4 people in the band. They are very much like Sound Tribe Sector Nine. Which in my opinion is a good thing. I also saw the movie Last House On The Left. For those that do not know this is a remake of a Wes Craven film. Can't they make a new horror movie that is good without remaking all the old ones.(Halloween,Friday the 13th, My Bloody Valentine)

Also I have begun one of the most ambitious Grateful Dead listening projects I have ever done. I am planning on listening to every Dark Star ever performed(that was recorded). That is 231 Dark Stars.I am posting my reviews over at Lost Sailor Pub. So go and check that out.

In other news I have been listening to some amazing Garcia and Grissman stuff that I grabbed over at Grateful Breed. Then Inspiration Move Me Brightly has some amazing and not so amazing Bob Weir stuff that I have been listening to. Oh, also I got some of Robert Hunters albums. They aren't bad for what they are. The highlight would be Terrapin from Jack O Roses. This is the lyrically complete version.

Another Good Day

Today I played disc golf again. I ended up going to the same park I was complaining about in an earlier post. When my friend and I made it the tenth tee we searched for the hole for at least 15 minutes. This is a open practice football field we are walking through looking in the woods for a yellow basket. When we found it, we realized what kind of disc golf hi-jinks were in front of us. The distance of this hole is 800+ feet. Not only that but there is a weird almost 90 degree angle once you make it through the football field. I am pretty sure I have improved since last time i played. Practice makes perfect right? Well after I played a good game of golf I got in the car and Sugaree came a blasting through my speakers. Which leads to the concert of the day. Here is a good Charlie Miller tape of 12/28/79. This has in my opinion the mother of all Sugaree's.

Also I HAVE to talk about the new Tarantino flick. This is the war movie he started working on before Kill Bill. That is 3 movies that he has finished and released before this movie. There is finally a preview for Inglorious Basterds. I dig WWII films already, but I think this will be the mother of them all. In violence at least. I could talk about this film, but since there is only a preview you can watch it.
