Peppy: JGB at the Stone, May 31, 1981 (and contemporary data missingess)
LN jg1981-05-31.jgb.s1s2p.aud.137952.flac1644 More spare listening notes, more JGB #12b. I actually like TLEO here (rare), find characteristically strong-for-the-period versions of Sugaree and Tangled Up, enjoy a melodious Simple Twist, pick up some rock-n-roll goodness in Let It Rock, and totally dig the litling beauty of an early Melvin-era Knockin’. Early 80s Knockin’s are the best, IMO.…

Calderone Valentine: JGB in Hempstead, NY, February 14, 1981
LN jg1981-02-14.jgb.all.aud-hance.155565.flac2496 Just did the previous night, and I had just listened to this one to get a load of the fresh transfer from John Jay Hance‘s master. I hear plenty of stuff to like, don’t go into much detail. The “Like A Road” feels really sweet. Quicky listening notes. Jerry Garcia Band Calderone Concert Hall…

DOWN in South Jersey? JGB at Glassboro State College, February 15, 1981
LN jg1981-02-15.jgb.all.aud.137422.flac1644 Rock Scully’s book Living with the Dead (1996) gets mixed reviews for all kinds of reasons, among them that he presents lots of factually inaccurate information. But, on another intepretation –and, I think, relaying something Corry has expressed– the book may not be right, but it contains lots of truth. Here is some of his…

The Twin Keys Quintet: JGB, The Stone, February 23, 1981 (Monday)
LN jg1981-02-23.jgb.all.aud-CC.xxxxxx.flac2448 which became jg1981-02-23.jgb.s1s2p.aud-CC.138135.flac1644 Andrew F. is transcribing the Closet Call tapes. What follows is from my deprecated transfer, with some updated details about Andrew’s shnid’d version mixed-in. Funny that I found this show so bland, because I loved 2/22/81 when it first hit the streets. “I have absolutely nothing of note to say.…

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…

Nice tape, nice show. Bob Minkin took some nice photos this night, a bunch of tapers nailed it, the band sounds strong. This must have been a great, weird old room.
