  • Color: January 12-25, 1972 Night Times listings

    Here are some listings from the Night Times, with a few scattershot thoughts. 1) The Berkeley Night Times is a gem. 2) It’s especially good re: race. The range of clubs it covers exceeds most other sources – you’ve got the country clubs, the rock clubs, the black soul/R&B/gospel clubs, the Latin clubs, a little…

  • GD September 3, 1972, Folsom Field, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO

    I have posted on this show once, but only to link these breathtaking photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/34917706@N07/sets/72157622061027813 Photos, I gather, by Joe Calvin. I have always thought there’s a dissertation or book to do about music at colleges and universities. Corry has hipped me to their importance in economy, among other things. The Dead in Boulder is…

  • Best no. 47 (June 1972)

  • JGMS: January 6-7-8, 1972, Keystone Korner

    I had a Friday, January 7, 1972 Garcia-Saunders gig at Keystone Korner based on an ex post discussion by Ken Hunt in the San Francisco Chronicle (1). But a bit of sniffing reveals a Thursday-Saturday run, January 6-8. No TJS, so update your own spreadsheets. (1) Hunt, Dennis. 1972a. Guitarist Jerry Garcia Never Stops. San…

  • Garcia Talks Locally, Fall 1972

    Staska, Kathie, and George Mangrum. 1972. Rock Talk by KG: Jerry Garcia discusses Grateful Dead, albums. Hayward Daily Review, October 12, 1972, p. 42. It’s a marvel to study Garcia interviews over the years in all kinds of ways. The man could talk as knowledgeably, engagingly, expansively, and articulately as he played the guitar, which…

  • Merl Saunders – May 28, 1972

    Corry has done more than anyone to probe into the relative blank spot that is summer 1972 for the Jerry Garcia – Merl Saunders live aggregation. http://lostlivedead.blogspot.com/2011/10/john-kahn-live-performance-history-1972.html (general) http://lostlivedead.blogspot.com/2013/03/summer-1972-pierce-street-annex-san.html (Garcia with Guaraldi at Pierce Street Annex As Corry says in the latter post, linking to the former: “there were almost no Garcia-Saunders shows in 1972,…

  • JGMS: July 13-15, 1972 (UNCERTAIN)

    The item above, from the great “Rock Talk by KG” column in the Hayward Daily Review (July 13, 1972, p. 27) says that Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders will be playing Keystone Berkeley “through July 17”, implying shows on July 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17. There are no known (to me) Garcia conflicts with…

  • Wales/Hooteroll influence on GD?

    All Hooteroll All The Time (AHATT) is an interesting idea that could be elevable to a core principle, i.e., to the effect that Hooteroll is “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last” (Revelations 22:13, King James Bible version). 🙂 I won’t go into that here. I will just reproduce…

  • Jerry Garcia and Friends: March 25, 1972, Academy of Music, New York, NY

    https://jerrybase.com/events/19720325-03 Bo Diddley, Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir: Saturday, March 25, 1972, Hells Angels Benefit at the Academy of Music, New York, NY. I sure feel inept not knowing more about this venue. I assume it’s the one at 126 14th Street, New York, NY? I am basing that on this random bit of info…
