Moe_Syzlak Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I like latter year Wharf Rats -- really i like all latter year Jerry ballads -- as Jerry's "old man voice" was in full effect and adds to the earnestness of the songs. Although it isn't That early, 10/21/83 is a great version. About 10 years ago I made a "fantasy show" mix (basically my favorite versions of my favorite tunes. Unfortunately, I never noted which versions I pulled for this mix, so I have forgotten which show the Wharf Rat is from. Anyway, I have uploaded to sendspace. If anyone can identify, I'd appreciate it! I'm pretty certain it is from that spring '90 tour. Wharf Rat Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Just listened to Disk 1 and 2 of the latest Egypt run (Rocking the Cradle) disk from Rhino. The sound quality is indeed great and the stuff that are on the disks are rather good, the Looks Like Rain and most of Disk 2 (shakedown, esp.) are all played with vigor and I think the band played well. Haven't watch the DVD, yet. With all the chatter of the Taping Compendium's lately, the write up of the Egypt run is great. Ken Genetti's trip account, I thought, is great and reading it while listening to the CD's was a trip in itself. This account as well as others from famous runs of shows make the books great. I remember reading in a previous post, that someone doesn't read the Compendium's much anymore due to the internet and all, which is perfectly fine and understandable, but it is nice to read someone's account of a show or tape in the book and not have to read a number of people disagreeing or denouncing it post after post afterwards. Though I do understand that you can get a lot more info on various Dead shows on the internet now a days and the books are already, in some respect, outdated. Anyway the Cradle disk is good and I looking forward to the DVD. Also got the latest Road Trip series, the after Egypt Winterland shows, and I'm looking forward to those. I have copies of the shows but I am of course looking forward to the enhanced sound quality. Link to post Share on other sites

mountain bed Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 To carry over from the Phish is back thread here's a very good show from the '92-'95 time frame: 10/5/94 - The Spectrum, Philly PA I: Jack Straw, FOTD, Wang Dang Doodle, Jack-A-Roe, Queen Jane, Lazy River Road, Eternity (Bob on acoustic), Deal II: Midnight Hour, Cumberland, Playin' > UJB > Drums > Space > Miracle > SOTM > Sugar Mag E:Quinn Jerry remained onstage throughout Drums - always a good thing. October '94 was really a last hurrah of sorts - after what was probably the worst GD tour in history (summer '94) the fall tour was much much better. This show and the MSG run the following week were a breath of fresh air. Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 A lot of the stuff that was done w/ P & F when Chris was with them in the fall and winter of '05 was fantastic, too.

mountain bed Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 To those of you who have or will have the Rockin' the Cradle (Egypt '78): have you guys watched the DVD yet? I watched it last night, and although the footage is a tad spotty at times, WOW. Maybe it was the eclipse, I don't know, but I have NEVER EVER saw Garcia so animated. Go back and check out "Minglewood" - when Bobby sings "couple shots of whiskey" Gar almost channels Pete Townshend...I mean, he's jumping around and shit. Almost does a windmill! On other tunes he's bobbing his head like a metal dude. At one point him and Phil are front and center right beside each other just ROCKIN' OUT. The joy expressed by their body language is just unreal. Everybody needs to see this stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

The joy expressed by their body language is just unreal. Everybody needs to see this stuff. I thought the same thing when I watched it last week, I never saw Garcia so animated, ether. Watching it was fun and I think the camera person must have been indulging in something: at times the camera would drift up or down or sideways. I can see why (if this is the only footage they have) they did not commercially release the footage shortly after the shows like I think they planned to do to help recoup some of the money it took to go there. That being said, I am glad they finally released it. Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Taper's section - Link This week, we're going to check in with three sequences of music, a little lighter than usual in number, but the scope of these jams should more than make up for it. One little thing to note is that all of the music this week is from San Francisco. From 10/13/68 at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, we have a typical-for-the-era sequence of Dark Star>St. Stephen>The Eleven>Death Don't Have No Mercy, a terrific sequence from an amazing year. In just about a month, Tom Constanten would join the band on keyboards, adding another layer of depth to this already-magnificent music. Next up is a long, spacey, deep and dark version of Playing In The Band from 10/16/74 at Winterland in San Francisco. This is the version that was included in The Grateful Dead Movie, albeit in a very truncated arrangement, as film reels could only run about 20 minutes. We are pleased to include it in all its more than 30-minute glory here, mixed from the 16 track master tapes. Lastly this week, from 10/14/80 at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, we have the opening of the third set, Scarlet Begonias>Fire On The Mountain>Estimated Prophet>Terrapin Station>Playing In The Band. This was the final night of a 15 night run of concerts, the longest uninterrupted residency the Grateful Dead had ever played at a venue.
