  1. Just ordered the show with Nels and the last night of the run, where Greg sat out on. Looking forward to listening to them - my neighbor and I did purchase the show that we attended a few years ago, here in Chicago, and it sounded pretty good (sound quality wise) - it's the first time that I ordered a show that I did not attend, though. My neighbor is going in halves with me - don't tell Butch. I also joined the Hittin the Web forum because there is vine going that includes the complete 96 Riveria shows - I had a few of these on tape, but they have been misplaced through the years ---- hav
  2. Shelley is a great drummer - I talked to him for a bit before an outdoor show in St. Louis, very personable, nice guy. Definitely going to get this release.
  3. Looks like it's a good one - great, great line-up. Below is the DMG writeup. Looks like Nels plays lead throughout.
  4. I thought there was Small Faces thread here, but I couldn't fine it - perhaps they were discussed in the Hall of Fame thread. There is also a great Fairport Convention clip from the same show in the sidebar. I found the below clip another board Bouton Rouge Sessions - The Small Faces with P.P. Arnold http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uG0Zqo5zrg
  5. Heard Glad It's Over on the radio yesterday on the way home from work - haven't heard it in quite a while - an okay tune.
  6. I missed the National/Weir event. I am sure they will replay it again.
  7. http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/sns-rt-us-bobbywomack-cancerbre82p0ne-20120326,0,3446896.story Womack is battling cancer. I know of him only through his involvement with the Stones. I have a great Dirty Work studio session boot that Womack and Jagger sings on. Hopefully all goes well.
  8. Below is one of them - not sure if others were released. I never did get this release - 71 is one of my favorite Dead years.
  9. Some groupie? - don't know, actually. Just finished watching the spread earlier - great photos. Probably will be getting Vol. 2.
  10. Thanks for sharing your review - I agree that the West L.A. Fadeaway from the 19th was excellent. If I had to pick my top five favorite Dead songs, I think I would have to put West L.A. in it. Perhaps, because their performance of that song on the 19th is etched in my brain (as I wrote many times, the 19th was my first show.) Great groove and love Hunter's lyrics.
  11. Well, since you are at it,Winterland121072, do you have a review for 19th?
  12. I always thougth Winston lived in England.
  13. Knowing me, I problably read both them before, but still an enjoyable read this afternoon, none the less. other news: I guess I will try to attend a showing - wish it was the complete third show, though
  14. Finished watching it last night - great flick. Story was incredibly well written and a Wisconsin town seemed to be the perfect backdrop - the weather, scenery, and the midwest people. Watching the extra of the screenwriter talk about the screenplay was well worth watching - the whole mental illness angle and how society deals with it.
  15. Even the two sides within the two parties are entrenched - which doesn't bode well for either party.
  16. I have never been one to get set-lists, but I did ask a Old Town of Folk Music worker if I could grab the Justin Roberts' set list and he said sure. Justin was signing stuff after the show, so I brought my 2 1/2 old son up to him and had him sign the set list - so my kid is on his way.... I did happen to see Levon Helm's set list (who performed the night before) on the stage, too. It was near the keyboards/trumpet player stand, I am guessing someone gave it to him, so I did not grab it.
  17. Wow that would have been great to see - thanks for posting.
  18. Disc 2 is definitely outstanding, I just perfer 72 to 74. Disc 2 includes:
  19. Never heard of Grafton, WI - spent quite a bit time in Grafton, IL (nice wineries) - that's why I wondering where the hell in Grafton, IL would there would have been a studio. The town is about a city block long. It is interesting that there was one in Grafton, WI.
  20. Listening to the above show, now. Finally watched the above rendition of the Veneta show - I think it best footage of them performing - definitely needs an official release.
  21. http://southside.uchicago.edu/History/Music.html It looks like there was an Okeh studio here on the South Side. I would like to know where. I know the U of C has a jazz special collection at their library, I am sure I can find out there.
  22. Got my set yesterday - does sound great. As usual, the Mosaic bunch did a great job mastering/producing. I have an Ellingston set from the same era that I don't listen to all that much because the shrill of the horns gets a bit hard to listen to. Lou - any idea where the Chicago dates were recorded at. A few of the sessions on disc 1 were recorded here, but the name of the studio's are not listed. For some reason I though everything was recorded in NYC, for the most part, back in the 20s/30s and early 40s. A few dates were recorded in LA, also. Baring the names of studios, the liner not
