  • Merl Saunders and the Rainforest Band, featuring Jerry Garcia

    Here’s a weird one bottom of column 1 to top of column 2: “Merl Saunders and the Rainforest Band, faturing Jerry Garcia. Performing music from their album Blues From the Rainforest, July 26 at the Great American Music Hall and July 27 at the Cotati Cabaret” Several possibilities. First, perhaps most likely (?), whoever called…

  • The Penultimate Garcia Band Show

    LN jg1995-04-22.jgb.all.aud-km54.137833.flac1648 Not a ton jumps out at me, though the “Mission In The Rain” has a nice feel, and “My Sisters And Brothers” takes on some country flavor. Jerry Garcia Band The Warfield 982 Market Street San Francisco, CA 94102 April 22, 1995 (Saturday) – 8 PM Neumann KM54 flac1648 shnid-137833 –set I (6…

  • The Garcia Band’s Last Gig (and list of contemporary late-era posts)

    I have finally been dipping my toe into late-period JGB, let’s call it the Donny Baldwin era, JGB #23. See: 9/1/94: I came for the Johnny Too Bad, I Stayed for the Don’t Let Go 9/2/94: Lots to Like About This Old Jerry 9/10/94: Oh My Body | Is Bent and Broken 11/11/94: Simple Twist…

  • Old Garcia Running to the Rock for Rescue

    LN jg1995-03-05.jgb.all.aud-michaelB-goodbear.79634.flac1644 I listened to the second set, and man did I love it. “Shining Star” isn’t may favorite, but the call-and-response with the crowd is nice. Jerry drops on a dime –actually, John first hit the line– into “Johnny Too Bad”, which is very, very good. Wonderful. The return to SS is neat, and…

  • 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 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.…
