i'm only sleeping

When I was a kid I read somewhere that Jerry was inspired by Joaquin Rodrigo, the original composer of 'Concierto de Aranjuez' on which Miles Davis Solea was based. In fact, it always makes me remember that piece, very popular here in Spain, rather than Solea, which I have not heard in eons. I have the Miles CD, will check it out.

^I don't feel like opening a new RIP thread...what a year...another man's gone. Dan Hicks http://pitchfork.com/news/63396-bay-area-singer-dan-hicks-has-died/

Ditto...until the release of GD's Europe 72

Julio Iglesias WTF????

Sad. Was not one of my main heroes, but Heroes is a masteriece.

^envious, also of Pig shirt Found myself doing karaoke with the Loser in Sept 28 1972, with an almost inaudible Jer. Great audio to appreciate Bobby's work https://archive.org/details/gd1972-09-28.sbd.miller.94268.sbeok.flac16

My dead Christmas stash

I also enjoyed the book. One thing I learned I never heard of before was a supposed meeting in Bob's studio with Van Morrison in the blues for Allah sessions era, the only connection of dead & van I know of (except JGB's covers of VM). Anyone has more info or links about this?

I could be listening the Complete Europe '72 boxset every day for the rest of my life. Maybe alternating with May '77

^ I read in a blog there is much speculation that Vol. 16 will be 7/31/82 Austin, TX.

Bought today the 'definitive live 4 cd box'. Started randomly with disc 2. The Scarlet Begonias (Detroit 10/3/76) is stellar

That run of 3 LPs was a turning point in rock music IMHO. I am a fanatic and have collected all bootlegs of that era but, unlike the upcoming monster 30 cd GD Box, I'm not sure I need a 18-disk package. I'll buy the 6 disc box

Shorter than for Hey Jude though

I'm loyal, unassuming and intrinsically groovy. I'm also happen to be outrageously talented (I didn't know). Ergo, John.
