  • HWJG19710801 question

    A little while back we had a whole series of things related to Howard Wales / Jerry Garcia Hooteroll? Hooteroll?–When Was It Recorded?  — LLD, Jan. 6, 2011 Response to LLD’s Hooteroll–When Was It Recorded? — JGMF, Jan. 7, 2011 Hooteroll? Next Part — JGMF, 1/13/2011 In that last one, I mentioned Blair Jackson’s information…

  • GD19671201-02: December 1-2, 1967, Psychedelic Supermarket, Boston, MA – CXL

    update note 20150517: I find it hard to update posts once I make them, too little time and all that. In any case, I think I have learned the following things. First, the Dead shows advertised for the Psychedelic Supermarket in Boston on December 1-2, 1967 ended up canceled. Is that right? Second, per commenter Bob…

  • Hooteroll? Next Part

    Corry’s original post on LLD: “Hooteroll?–When Was It Recorded?“, with lots of great comments. My response: “Response to LLD’s Hooteroll–When Was It Recorded?” A number of commenters to these posts, including sraile and LIA, as well as more from Corry, have added valuable thoughts and information. Thank you all! The purpose of this post is…

  • a few more Surrealistic Pillow tidbits

    LIA did a great post on Garcia on Surrealistic Pillow, partly in response to the little tidbit I posted about. I love how fully many of my fellow, GD/JG scholar-bloggers are able to develop thoughts and evidence in this medium. It is much harder than I would have thought, but of course very, very enjoyable.…

  • Marmaduke and Jerry: unknown Bay Area “resort”, ca. mid-June 1969

    Gene Sculati, in a very insightful little piece written ca. mid-June 1969 (1): Recently “a local resort featured Dead accomplice Marmaduke singing country (and playing guitar) to the accompaniment of Jerry Garcia on pedal steel guitar.” Anyone know of a Marmaduke-Jerry gig, ca. mid-June 1969, at a resort? REFERENCE (1) Sculati, Gene. 1969. What’s Become…

  • GSCBF3: Sunday, April 28, 1974 afternoon schedule

    Updated 9/18/2010 Part of a series of back-of-the-napkin thoughts about the Golden State Country Bluegrass Festival (GSCBF), held in San Rafael, CA from Friday, April 26th through Sunday, April 28, 1974. Previous installments: GSCBF1: just a mention GSCBF2: a plea for a release of the film and tapes! I have mentioned that there are several…

  • Where was Garcia on July 26 or 29, 1973?

    My previous post contemplated where Garcia was on July 4, 1973, based on ads published in a bluegrass magazine. This post does precisely the same thing for July 26 or 29, 1973. As you can see, Jerry Garcia is listed among the acts appearing at the First Annual West Virginia Peace, Love, Blues and Bluesgrass…

  • Where was Garcia on July 4, 1973?

    I don’t really know. I have him with the GD at the Universal Ampitheatre in Universal City, CA on June 29 – July 1, and then at the Lion’s Share on July 5 with Merl. July 4 was a Wednesday, but Garcia seemed like a vaguely patriotic guy (in a U.S. Blues sort of way!)…

  • JGMS: “July 21-22,” 1974, Keystone, Berkeley, CA

    **updated 20111216 2057 GMT** Tony Saunders is the bassist on these two tapes. The Jerry Site has listings for Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders at Keystone, Berkeley, on July 21 and July 22, 1974. I doubt both date/venue combinations, for reasons I’ll lay out below. A) “JGMS 7/21/74, Keystone, Berkeley” This first date is so…

  • GASB/GAMB: mid-June 1974

    update 20140907: June 12 was Lion’s Share, June 13-14 was Keystone Berkeley. This post mostly deals with stuff that has been clarified by Elwood (1974), but there’s still some good analysis of things other than date/venue in the old text /update The Great American String/Music Band is one of my favorite Garcia-involved aggregations. It was…
