  • 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”.

  • I am listening to Hooteroll? again

    Something is definitely wrong with me.

  • Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders at the Matrix – A Dialogue

    [ed: Corry sent me an email about Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders at the Matrix, which turned into a rather elaborate exchange on the subject. One piece of our correspondence involved the tape traveling as 5/20/71. This is some of Garcia’s finest playing on tape in any context. I highly recommend that you check it…

  • 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…

  • GD19710903-4: Harding Theater, SF, CA

This scan from the Berkeley Tribe v.6 n.4 (issue #110) (September 3-9, 1971), p. 13 advertises a benefit for Marin County Head Start featuring Grateful Dead, Howard Wales and Shades of Joy on Friday-Saturday, September 3-4, 1971 at the Harding Theater in San Francisco.
