  • Grandma said, ‘Boy, go and follow your heart’: JGMS at Keystone Berkeley, November 27, 1974

    LN jg1974-11-27.jgms.106mins.sbd-GEMS.91343.flac1644 Just a few quick notes. 1) Paul Humphrey drumming. The drummer is fast and great. He is noted in Rex’s handwriting on the box for reel #3. 2) Some of this material is just amazing. “Valdez In The Country” and “Freedom Jazz Dance” should make us very Grateful that Merl was there to…

    The Jerry Site lists JGMS shows for Friday, February 7, 1975 and Saturday, February 8, 1975, based on listing in Hayward Daily Review, 1/31/75, p. 44. The above are clippings of the Keystone’s weekly ads, I don’t know from which paper from the San Francisco Sunday Examiner and Chronicle Datebook, which I lovingly refer to…

  • Oakland Times

    In at least June and July 1973 a paper called Oakland Times ran some Keystone articles, some Jerry data that are interesting. I have copies of some clippings, but there is no little publication information.  Oakland Public Library has a few numbers in 1965: http://encore.oaklandlibrary.org/iii/encore/record/C__Rb1507575__Soakland+times__Orightresult__X5?lang=eng&suite=cobalt.  Nothing turns up in any of the following Berkeley Public…

  • A Rare Sight

    A Jerryless month in Berkeley: April 1975. I’d bet it was a bad month financially for the Keystone.

  • JGMS May 6, 1975, Keystone

    The Keystone Berkeley calendar for May 1975 lists quite an astonishing, amazing set of shows. For blog and List purposes, I post to note Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders on Tuesday, May 6, 1975, heretofore unknown to me. I am not sure what to make of the May 23rd listing. There are tapes of Legion…

I have been able to do very little for quite some time. I did manage to sneak in some notes…
