Analogman Posted December 19, 2022 Author Share Posted December 19, 2022 Yea - back on topic. I re-watched that so-called lost black and white 1970 film from Europe the other day. I love watching how Jerry answers those questions at that party or whatever it was. I wonder who that girl with the dark eye shadow is that was often seen taking photographs. I think next to the Alligator Strat period my favorite Jerry sound is when he was playing that SG. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oil Can Boyd Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I was listening to the latest season of the Deadcast and they were talking with some of the people from the Stanford AI lab. After a minute I realized one of them is the dude who lives across the street from me. He's away for a bit but I can't wait to see him when he gets back. I had no idea about his involvement in early online Dead stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted December 20, 2022 Author Share Posted December 20, 2022 I recall reading about that stuff somewhere - maybe in The Tapers books or a blog? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
i'm only sleeping Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 A tape of the late show of Garcia & Saunders (11/5/74) in NY where legend has that John Lennon attended has surfaced in the usual sites. You can hear John's voice commenting on the show! Jerry Garcia's middle finger explains the thing https://jgmf.blogspot.com/2023/01/between-bottom-lines-lennon-and-garcia.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 That's a story I have never heard before. I bet they could have jammed on some Chuck Berry songs together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I listen to 2/13/70 this morning -- it's definitely a great one. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryankopf Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 My favorite Grateful Dead songs are "Ripple," "Terrapin Station," and "Scarlet Begonias." I love the way these songs showcase the band's intricate musical arrangements and poetic lyrics. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oil Can Boyd Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 The question above got me thinking about favorite songs. Over the past few years, while working from home, I've been listening to more Dead than I have in a long time. And almost all of the songs I go back to are Jerry songs: Bird Song, Dark Star, Scarlet>Fire, Morning Dew, Eyes of the World, Brokedown Palace, Ripple, Terrapin, Althea, Franklin's Tower, Friend of the Devil, China>Rider. I don't mean to crap on Weir - I really like his guitar playing - but in thinking about my favorite Dead songs, almost none are his. There are some I like: the Other One, Cassidy, Estimated. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oil Can Boyd Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Sure. I didn't mean to suggest that those were the only three songs by Weir that I like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
