Acid test,of course! Nice, Poke! I knew it was a long shot. But figured with the most chronic allied band, Ever there was a chance of something.

What I was really curious about, was if they had original music at the start. Original sound, no doubt!

[Click to View YouTube Video]I really just wanted to find the radio broadcast of 6/28/76 . The end of the first set was
Row Jimmy, The music Never Stopped > Might as Well!! This was good to though [Click to View YouTube Video]YIKES it seems to be a part of a Multi-day set of summer shows [Click to View YouTube Video]
there is more but . . .the version of The Music Never Stopped, has a prominent Donna! She is loud
In the moment but oddly restrained not the over board 'strangled cat' at all.

Seriously considering flying out to Chicago for this.

Just before Jerry died, I took a trip down to Vegas to hang out with my bud. I was so stoked about going to see them...until I got there and realized that the show had been the weekend before. Always regretted not being able to see them live, so I might have to buckle down and make this happen.

Cool stuff--Wegie, nice tape collection. I have a bunch of old reels, but there's so much great live stuff in HDCD that I don't have the time to listen to those crusty old audience tapes. Sometimes, thought, it seems the aud tapes capture more of the mood, the sound of the band through their stereo.

That's one thing about the shows that I really miss. The band always had the best damn stereo system.

What you don't see much of in tapes is the old studio outtakes, a favorite of ours used to be the Barbed Wire Whipping Party and other goodies from the Aoxomoxoa sessions. I also have somewhere some outtakes from Go To Heaven. An amazing version of Garcia finger picking through Althea...

Jaybro, to answer your question, it depends on how you look at it. Garcia had already been playing a lot of tunes when Phil ran into him. Phil was playing trumpet, but picked up the bass. I suppose when the band first got together, they pulled into Caution right off. My memory is probably off a bit from what I read, but Phil does a good job of describing the early years of their friendships, and the music that influenced them in the beginning. Check out the first few chapters in Phil's book "Searching for the Sound." There's also a fantastico description of the Acid Tests.

crunched the numbers and it will cost the wife and I over $2000 to make that weekend happen. I wish I had the extra coin.

I wish they would have done this farewell at Sam Boyd in Vegas! cheap cheap cheap for the traveling family

I will not be throwing down major coin to make it happen in Chicago.

I had my awesome moments at shows, standing close enough for Jerry to melt my face. I'm happy.

c I knew that I was on to a real forgotten summer trip! Three nights! all astonishingly mixed sets, maybe some of the best Donna, coming on strong, at the end of the gig.
It is so good!

that is the show thanxz Z!

Of course in the rehearing my old tapes in comparison to all the incredible shows that are on the digital Archive! makes it hard to justify keeping my old relics.
Sad to say it but 2015 will change my library of Dead tunes!! a full change!?

hi ' hey Now! Don't let me cross your sticks.
I was born under the flag as my delinquent parents left me to a college age babysitter who apparently took infant me along to shows!

my sister was also on the bus as a natural ginger and foxy as hell by the '70s, she was very off the bus by '85. Then again in the Touch of Grey/Thrill Is Gone, Hollywood phase, she got the call, was in ...
Working in production, from the corporate side. She got me good when she called from a limo on the Ski area grounds, with. . . a girl from... well. . . 'Cafe' Bethoven'(*nah my hartz still broke)
Was it Beauna Vista?? any way it had been billed as the HIGHEST Dead show ever, and she went by Limo courtesy of Bob!

I heard the tape it was no great shakes but still . . .
She went as a straight laced, buttoned up executive, with a 'family'member who had. . . blah blah blah . .
not over that girl that is fur sore.
