  1. I should say that there was a time when they were more apt to stretch out. I think the focus has shifted to the new songs. At least, that is what I have noticed looking at the recent set-lists, anyhow.
  2. It could be it has to do more with the fact that large groups of people follow them around, than the actual music they are making. That also happened to The Allman Brothers band. Of course, like a lot of these genre definitions, there is room for different interpretations, but still, there is also a core set of defining characteristics.
  3. I never looked at them as a jamband. Although, I could see how that term became applied to them.
  4. An interview with Rich: "Art is Not A Service Industry": Rich Robinson and The Black Crowes Endure He talks about some of things we have talked about here before. Such as, the difference between the first and second album.
  5. I don't think I have ever heard those albums described as "psychedelic rock" before. Wikipedia gives a good description. At least, that it what I think of when I hear the phrase. Then, there is: Neo-psychedelia
  6. There is one source out there so far.
  7. That is true. I think that may be the first time I heard the term psychedelic rock - when I got into The Doors in 1979 or so. Oddly enough, I never cared for the term though. I'll use the term metal or alt-country, but I never liked using psychedelic rock to describe something. For example, Cream were to me a British Blues Band, who after Jimi came along, decided to crank things up a notch. I always find it interesting that by 1968-1969, a lot of that sort of music was on its way out. I think Keith Richards said something like "no more bells and funny pants". And of course, The Band came
  8. I have always read it as Nerk - which is mentioned in what I found on some Beatles site:
  9. The teacher probably got that list online somewhere. And, there of course, hundreds of examples she or he could use. But - there is always a list of well known and popular, so that is what people are going to use. Those albums can lead to other albums, if one is so inclined. Like everything else, there is a lot of junk to be found in the genre. That is, bands trying to cash-in on the Sgt. Pepper explosion, or become the next Jefferson Airplane. One of the audio blogs I look at is all about that sort of deal.
  10. You should meet him if you ever get the chance.
  11. That's odd. How can the music be taught without hearing it? Although, there are probably things on those records that would get the teacher in trouble in this day and age. I was in a creative writing class once where we were allowed to bring in records and play them. I brought in Master of Reality. That did not go over so well.
  12. I believe that Jefferson Airplane album is an anthology. I would have went with After Bathing at Baxter's. I would have loved to have had a class like that. Way back in the Styx days, I was in a music class where the teacher decided to punish the students one day. She handed out a quiz on The Beatles, and I believe only one or two people passed it.
  13. It was a fairly recent deal. They are still out there. Once something gets out there it is usually out there forever. I guess some people wanted to pretend they did not know the shows were out there. I am having a bit of hard time with that, due to the fact that I got a couple of nasty emails about it - as if I am somehow the main souce. Anyhow, it's a drag clicking on all of these threads and seeing people debate/argue things back and forth. I use to get off on it myself, but at the end of the day, it is a drag. We should just let the process go forth, let the people who can go to t
  14. I have not started snagging them yet. I think I am going to wait until they are all up, and then grab them.
  15. Someone is putting up the April 1971 Fillmore East shows at bt.etree.org. I think I am going to grab them all, as I have only heard parts of the shows, and not the whole deal.
  16. Taper's Section October 26 - November 1, 2009
  17. Check this section of Via Chicago: Greatest Lost Track of All Time There are currently two Liam Finn shows listed.
  18. As far as I know, all of the sources from the Austin 2008 shows are AUD sources. I believe Wilco's policy is "no soundboard patches", but apparently every once in a while someone is allowed a soundboard patch. This is the section of the Via Chicago where you can links and information about live shows: Greatest Lost Track of All Time So far, all of the sources for the recent Chicago shows are AUD sources.
  19. I see. I have not listened to the shows. Maybe someone else will offer a view as to the best version to grab. You could try just grabbing a song or two of each source (the same songs) and then doing a comparison.
  20. I recall reading that also. I am surprised Donna has not put out a book. Grateful Dead Live at Dream Bowl on 1969-02-21 The comments on this show crack me up. Grateful Dead Live at Crystal Ballroom on 1968-02-02 Clementine Grateful Dead Live at Long Beach Arena on 1972-12-15 Dark Star ->Morning Dew
  21. That's it. There are two shows on the dvd. March 18th 1997 (Wilcobase link).
  22. Those two sources are what I was thinking of when I posted. The bit in the taper's book just did not sound right to me.
