I realize that I've been playing alot of early 70s Dead the last month or so and I plan on changing that up next week, but I just couldn't let that 1st set I played last week from 12/31/72 be orphaned - so I'm putting out the second set this week. Its distinguished not only for the fine ensemble playing characteristic of the time but by the presence of David Crosby on the 'Other One' and 'Morning Dew' - I think you'll be able to hear his playing..
I hope you enjoy this and forgive me for perhaps over-mining this period of GD history - there's of course a ton of other interesting periods to explore and we'll move to another next week...

Hey Prof.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
There's a really odd thing about your downloads of this new podcast. If one downloads either via the 'here' link or the http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod010711.mp3 link, it comes through to my computer as a jpeg file which, of course is an image file format (for photos). Being a pro photographer, I'm very familiar with jpegs. Just so you know, one can easily switch it over to a mp3 by literally just changing the '.jpeg' to 'mp3', at least I could on my mac.
Thanks again for all the great music and take care,

I know! its so wierd - I have reported the problem to libsyn (my provider) but haven't heard anything back.. thanks for the post Paul!
ReplyDeleteProfessor,
ReplyDeleteI understand the need to move away (hopefully temporarily) from 72/73, but please don't orphan 2/21/73 Champaign/Urbana. Would be great to hear Set 2 in the not too distant future. Thx for everything you do. Happy New Year
Hey Prof,
ReplyDeleteNo need to apologize! 72-74 is juicy era. Truckin' > The Other One > Drums > The Other One> Morning Dew sequence is glorious. Thanks for the positive vibes. Peace, Peter from East Lansing
the Truckin' is phenominal... the rest is pure gravy, thank you
ReplyDeleteProfessor - There really just isn't enough to be said about 72 and 73. Just wow, wow wow.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all the tunes (and am looking forward to 2/21/73 2nd set!).
Happy 2011!
Peace...
While I hear your wish to move beyond the early 70's shows, please keep your promise to play the second set of the Champaign IL show!
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping the Dead alive every week! Love the Deadpod!
Oh I'll play that second set from 2/21/73 - but it might be a couple weeks yet before I do.. thanks!
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine the sheer joy that those who attended this amazing show must have felt...what a way to ring in a new year! Great selection, Professor! Many thanks!
