Heresy Alert
Avert your eyes if you are sensitive to this sort of thing. Great tapes, but 2/2/80 set I does nothing for me. Discuss. Further hypothesis: it exhibits the “Cornell Effect”, whereby great sounding tape produces systematic and massive overestimation of performance quality. UPDATE: In March 2021 I revisited this show, and found it to be…

“Beneficent, Raptured”: JGB 4/4/76 Page Auditorium
**update: see Corry, of course. This show has long been AWOL among collectors, but a nice 1st gen copy of an undetermined master audience tape has just come into the light (shnid-134922). Thanks to Alan Richman and dminches for getting it out there! I decided to post a little miscellanea, maybe a few notes. Listing…

LN jg1995-01-13.jgb.s2.aud-sisler-goodbear.79638.flac1648
update 5/17: I have revisited this date, with rather contrasting perceptions. Needless to say, I don’t get out to 1995 very much. I enjoyed this, overall. It was not a ripoff. Jerry’s guitar play is fine, if mixed very low. The arrangements are pretty interesting, but the execution suffers without David Kemper in the chair.…

more Garcia summer 1991 cancellations
Jerry Garcia Band (electric) was scheduled to play Frost Amphitheatre at Stanford University on July 14, 1991, but July 11th announced that Citing “mounting health problems,” Jerry Garcia has postponed his upcoming tour dates, including his show scheduled for Sunday at Frost Amphitheater. This ended up being canceled. I had earlier noted that that summer’s…

August 9th
This August 9th finds me thinking more about 70 years since Nagasaki than 20 years since Jerry Garcia, though that, too, is on my mind. Might as well go straight for the cream: cue this one up from about 5:40 to hear Garcia wail. In the alternative check out the whole smokin’ hot, first-night-of-tour set…

Positively Garcia and the East Coast Deadhead
I. Howard Weiner’s Positively Garcia Howard Weiner‘s very enjoyable Positively Garcia (Weiner 2014) is like a better-written, more musical, less arcane version of my listening notes, great flashing insights on the same issues that occupy Corry, without the depth. That’s not a criticism, by the way: it is light in the sense of being quick…
