    Garcia-Saunders with Guest Doug Sahm, ca. December 1972

    Clearing out old paper files of stuff, found this piece by John Swenson about Doug Sahm: Swenson, John. 197305. The Psychedelic Cowboy Makes His Move. Crawdaddy (May): 65-70. After narrating the good time on 11/23/72 in Austin, Sahm continues Then we went back up to Frisco an’ did it up at Keystone with Tom Fogerty…

  • The Good Ol’ Grateful Deadcast: Season 3 – Episode 9: Skull & Roses 50: Garcia

    All about Jerry’s first solo record, Garcia, recorded 50 years ago last month. Great stuff, and then also a little pedantry from yours truly. The Good Ol’ Grateful Deadcast is a national treasure!

  • Rolling Thunder Data

    Rumor has long had it that Mickey has a massive trove of tape and information related to recordings made at his barn studio, a.k.a. Rolling Thunder, at 2495 Novato Blvd. between about 1971 and sometime in the early 1980s. As usual, Corry has done outstanding work pinning some of this down, but there’s probably oodles…

  • 9/9/72 Other One

    Holy guacamole, the 9/9/72 Other One is a MONSTER. https://archive.org/details/gd1972-09-09.sbd.miller.105458.flac16/gd72-09-09d3t01.flac Two flamboyant snaps up.

  • New-to-The-List from the Examiner, 1970-1972

    In addition to the tantalizing May 20-21, 1969 Garcia gigs at the Matrix, the newly-digitized Examiner has yielded a good number of previously unlisted, mostly-midweek Garcia gigs. A little list  from 1970-1972 follows. update: see also a subsequent list from 1973-end 11/2/70 (Monday): Jerry Garcia / BBHC / Ice / Cleveland Wrecking Company. Harding Theater.…

  • A Second Hooteroll?

    In reporting that Epic/Columbia Custom Records and Douglas Records had re-upped on their distribution deal in spring 1972, Cash Box noted that one expected piece of product was “an encore of the collaboration between Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia and keyboard man Howard Wales”. News to me. ! ref: “Col, Douglas Dist. Renewal,” Cash Box,…

  • San Francisco Sessions, 1972

    I have been processing information from contracts filed at the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) Local No. 6 in San Francisco. San Francisco Sessions, 1967-1968 San Francisco Sessions, 1969 San Francisco Sessions, 1970 San Francisco Sessions, 1971 San Francisco Sessions, 1972 There is nothing representative about these – I have information on stuff that is…

  • Hooteroll? with Howard Wales and Jerry Garcia – Crouse Auditorium, Syracuse University, January 22, 1972

    Previously unknown gig. Thanks to carville for sharing!

  • GD Portland 7/25/72

    Man, that interlude in The Other One on 7/25/72 is the bee’s knees. Jim Powell’s analysis (at Deadlists) just refers to it as “mystery theme”. LIA: “the Allmans-like Jam in the Other One of 7/25/72 … sounds so composed it’s hard to believe they only did it once.” It sounded a little Jeffersonian, a little…

  • The Blogging Hobby

    Blogging is a great hobby – if you have ever thought of just wanting to keep some intellectual interest of yours pinned down a little better than purely in your head, I highly recommend it. Among Blogger’s very limited features – You Get What You Pay For, Corry reminds us, and as a Braudelian he…
