  • Second night out for Kemper: The Stone, 7/21/83

    Second night out for drummer David Kemper and Gloria Jones. See also “First Night Out for Kemper: The Stone, 7/20/83 (WED).” This was conventionally considered the second show for vocalist Gloria Jones, but the late ’83 Garcia Band tour still featured DeeDeeDickerson, raising doubts about a summer time switchover. It’s still possible, but as of…

    So, this show has not really circulated complete, unless it does and I missed it. Nice to hear the John Scher introduction intact. The first 60 minutes have never made the digital jump, as far as I know. There’s a “Creepin’” here, which is conceptually interesting but practically, to my ears, not so much. We…
