Never Get Yo Cornbread Made
LN jg1995-01-13.jgb.all.aud-vasseur-ladner.21484.shn2flac I almost never listen to 1995. I mean to. And then I did. But then, it turns out that I had already listened to the second set of this show, so the novelty factor was reduced by half. On the flip side, the “study in contrasts” possibilities are wide; in this case, it…

I stand corrected: it is that bad
The pithy title I gave to a set of 8/24/84 listening notes (s1 only) was “It’s not that bad, given how much Persian he was doing.” I stand corrected. Yes, yes it is. It is *that bad*. Here are notes on the three consecutive tracks of s2: ! P: s2t01 HTC … these vocals are…

The Roving Gambler: JGJK, Orpheum Theatre, Boston, February 2, 1986
Nine days after kicking off a lucrative little acoustic tour with the D.A.R. in D.C., Garcia and Kahn closed things off at the Orpheum in Boston. The main point of interest is “The Roving Gambler”, which makes its only known public appearance in the GOTS era (what some might call the Grateful Dead era) of…

Kicking off the January ’86 Garcia/Kahn acoustic tour
LN jg1986-01-24.jgjk.all.aud-CC.138168.flac1644 A huge bulge of heretofore elusive Garcia tape from the late 70s and especially the 80s has been hitting cyberspace. I don’t have much time for this, just a few scattered notes laying down some markers for eventual discussion of the tour. First, a tour snapshot. Snapshot of the January ’86 Garcia/Kahn acoustic…

Acoustic at the Denver Rainbow – JGJK, May 23, 1985 (late show)
LN jg1985-05-23.jgjk.late.aud.137966.flac1644 These shows have been very elusive, and the early show still has not made a digital appearance. Standard “Rock Bottom Era” take: croaking vocals and very good (acoustic) guitar picking. The one plus of the acoustic setting is that he can sing quietly, which works well on a relative rarity like “She Belongs…

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.…
