I'm 20 mins away from some Sierra Nevada's and then a couple Schlafy Hefe's...

I love the way he sings the last word of a line...like more in Someday Baby and break in When The Levee Breaks...

LOL! I wish you had posted this yesterday! I must have looked like a fool last night at midnight at Vintage Vinyl in my 30th anniversary celebration t-shirt...Shit!

New Orleans Jazz Fest 4/25-26/2003, I think...

I love Brokedown Palace...what a beautiful song! It always made me sad though in concert since it was usually the last song. But I love to hear it now! Whenever I had lawn seats, I would always go to Jerry's side. I was never lucky enough to get reserved seats on his side--usually far left or back in the center. If only the circus was coming back to town! At the funeral, Dylan was at his open caskit...sharing a final moment with his brother. Bob bowed and tried to sneak off. Deborah said Bob, Bob! and grabbed his arm. With bright red eyes, Bob tells Deborah that Jerry was the only one who

It's one of his masterpieces! With Sgt. Pepper and Their Satanic being released earlier that year, JWH was Bob's reply. All the songs are beautifully performed. I love the album cover...brown and gray, and very simple. Without JWH, would we have gotten The White Album or Beggar's Banquet as soon as we did?

Yeah, I think that album is full of great songs. The production does suck, which is too bad. Did you ever hear the Dark Eyes that Bob and Patti Smith shared voals on during the Paradise Lost Tour of Dec 95? Whoa!

Yeah, I like that version better. It's just like Mississippi, Bob wanted a diff sound than Lanios'. Or maybe he just didn't want to release all the best tracks to piss people off...

Come on, give Grandpa Bob a break...at that time he had grandkids running around everywhere he looked. Down in the Groove-- When did you leave heaven--a tribute to the great Henry "Red" Allen Silvio (w/ Robert Hunter) Ugliest girl in the world (ditto) Shenandoah Rank Strangers to me Knocked out loaded-- You wanna ramble Driftin' too far Brownsville girl Under your spell I'll agree that Knocked out was his weakest release of his own doing...but there are still some good songs on it.

LOL!!! For one, Born in Time!!! Under the Red Sky God Knows Cats in the Well even Wiggle Wiggle I wish Daniel Lanios had produced it though. Did you ever see Bob look out into the front rows and notice some young children and play Under the Red Sky to them?

The dry spell didn't last very long. If you look at all of his albums from the '80s, each one had at least several true masterpieces. I think the '80s brought changes that the '60s artists had trouble adapting to...look at Neil, The Dead, etc. It also became quite an ordeal for Bob to select a band for recording and touring. He learned so much from Jerry and The Dead during that short period together. The formula had always been to release an album and tour behind it. But that became a real burden. The rehearsals for the Dylan/Dead tour went on and on, and Bob rediscovered hundreds of songs fr

Lew Prince has been telling the story of Carter Carburetor for more than a decade. The St. Louis auto-parts maker, he explains, thrived for nearly 40 years by serving the needs of the Big Three. "They did everything right as a company," says Prince, co-owner of Vintage Vinyl in University City (and an RFT opera critic). "They improved their product, their delivery, their pricing." But, he adds, "What they never saw coming was fuel injection. They didn't learn how to make fuel injectors, and they went out of business." The shaggy-bearded Prince first told the carburetor story when Vintage

Happy Birthday Mr. Frank!!! Yaaa!

"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief, "There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief. Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth, None of them along the line know what any of it is worth." "No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke, "There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke. But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate, So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late." All along the watchtower, princes kept the view While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too. Outside i
