Dead Show/podcast for 3/25/11

This week's Deadpod features a hybrid show of sorts... first off, a great Jerry Band show requested by one of my wonderful listeners - this one comes to us from May 30th, 1981 from the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma CA. Unfortunately I could only acquire part of this wonderful performance but decided I needed to play it, warts and all.. I think it really shines.. I only wish we had the Dear Prudence which I am told was quite magical... As it is I'm pretty smitten with the Mission, and the Melody..

Secondly is a piece of music I've been wondering how I was going to get on the Deadpod for some time now.. this is from 'Go Ahead' - the side project started by Brent Mydland and Bill Kruetzman while Jerry was recovering from his coma in 1986...
this happens to be a truly fabulous Brent performance..

Dead Show/podcast for 3/18/11

This was quite a week in the Dead community, some fine Furthur shows, Phil's 71st birthday, but overshadowing everything, for me, was the loss of Augustus Owsley Stanley. Owsley was of course instrumental in the formation and development of the Grateful Dead, of the 'big sound' that really defined the concert experience for the Dead, and of course, as a world renowned chemist. This week, thanks to the efforts of Jamie over at Lossless Legs, I'm playing one of Bear's recordings, from the famous Winterland run of October 74. Fare thee well, Bear - give Jerry our love...
