The Grateful Dead hopes to have some new records out soon, particularly
a single in late November and an LP in January. If the group obtains the
approval of Warner Brothers, the January release will be a two-record set chock
full o’ goodies. Some of the titles already recorded for the LP include
“Alligator,” ”No [sic] Potato
Caboose,” and “Dark Star.” The single is an as yet unnamed
original tune. Live tracks may also be included. Warner Brothers is setting up
an eight-track remote tape unit at concerts the Dead are doing November 10 and
11 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. The Dead hopes to include a marching
band on their LP and make use of the arranging talents of Paul Simon and Art
Garfunkel, who have indicated a desire to help the Dead while in Los Angeles
during November.
