Dead Show/podcast for10/26/07

This week we continue with this marvelous show from May 25th, 1972 in London.
We get the last two songs of the first set - including a great Brokedown Palace, then we get what exists of the second set. I'm a sucker for a great Pigpen tune and Chinatown Shuffle sure sounds good to me... Lucky for all of us there's a fabulous Uncle John's->Wharf Rat->Dark Star that survived in tact..

I also wanted to thank everyone once again who contributed to the fall pledge drive.. You folks are SO great! thanks so much!

Dead Show/podcast for 10/12/07

This week we'll hear the remainder of the great show from June 26th, 1984 from the Merriweather Post Pavilion. This set shows us the great interplay of light and dark in the Dead's music - songs I really love like Don't Need Love, He's Gone and Stella Blue are interspersed with rocking numbers like Wang Dang Doodle, Good Lovin' and Around and Around. There's even a 'Day Job' encore - it had been long enough that I'd heard one of these that I enjoyed it ;) I hope you'll enjoy this great set too..

I also want to sincerely thank those of you who've contributed during our Fall fundraising drive. It's not too late to join with these great friends who've contributed to keep the Deadpod coming each week - just click on the 'contribute now' button on the right hand side of the blog...
