gd 06-17-75
i recently had an opportunity to listen to a soundboard of this GD 06-17-75 show and would like to share my notes. the beginning portion of the recording has major problems - low levels, only one channel recorded (usually just the left), nothing getting recorded, ground hum, random static, dropouts in the middle of songs, etc. these problems are present up until about the middle of 'deal'. after that, the recording is fine. the great music and great playing is the icing. the song titles in the second set correctly identify what was played.

Here are the choices, don't need to respond back to the list unless you want the list to hear your voice! 1. Keep current style, don't change - email-ONLY distribution, open to public posts, but moderate public posts. 2. Change to Forum/Bulletin Board Discussion style. This is quite common these days. The Deadlists server has free software I can enable to facilitate it, which is based on open source code. It's called phpBB and details about it can be obtained here: http://www.phpbb.com/. I would imbed this into the Deadlists website. Would mean guests may only read, but must register to post. Allows email tracking of posts, but does NOT have a general email distribution. Would require re-registering. 3. Web-based Mailing List. This is much like how Yahoo Groups works. Has an actual website I can integrate better into the Deadlists site for the list to view messages that are posted, but works the same way as the Berkeley mail system. This also exists on the Deadlists server, but has a nominal monthly charge associated with it. Has good SPAM filtering so could have non-registered and registered posting without moderation. Here's the feature list http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/ Would require re-registering.

Re: 1969 Fillmore gripe
i am kind of pee-oh-ed that the set sold out before i could pre-order. anyone order two and wanna get rid of one? maybe gdm can press an extra one? I-) ihor
Re: Fillmore West 1969 box set
Given the price of the box set (about $7-8/CD), I suspect these shows will be released individually in ordinary packaging. Ordinary marketing would have priced the limited edition much higher if that were going to be the only official release of the music. rhino is to release a three cd version, which will not duplicate the versions that are on 'live/dead'.

well, here they be, a histaurical document of pigpen. he sings and plays acoustic and electric and bottleneck slide guitar, piano, harmonica, and, harmonica is overdubbed (or played by someone else?). these are hissy, but, it turns out that the hissier versions were more complete. this is all the acoustic material, as far as i have found. there is no date, as yet, but i am working on that. this material came from about five or six cassettes that i had, some with songs duplicated, others with just the one occurrence of a song. i do want to extend a special thanks! to matt smith for the digitizing and to paul scotton for digging out that one cassette.

Re: earliest 'feeling groovy' jam?

earliest 'feeling groovy' jam?
this has probably been discussed to death, so here's another shot... the 11-02-69 dark star has a 'feeling groovy' jam in it. this may be the earliest one? start at about 17:10 to 19:00 for a really nice jam, at 19:18 it transitions to a 'and we bid you good night' kind of jam, and goes in and out of that. at 22:34, the 'feeling groovy' jam starts to about 25:15, when garcia starts the closing of dark star as everyone else (mostly tc) finishes up the feeling groovy jam. by about 26:45, it's back to dark star.

No dates, times, or locations were ever given or if it was studio or live work. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Re: 9/20/70 and phase issues
The thing is, if one element is out of phase but the others aren't, it might not be possible to repair it. Putting the voices in phase might put the bass out of phase (because the bass is probably also in the middle, i.e. at equal volume in both channels), for example. right you are. if JUST the vocals are out of phase, then that will more difficult to fix. if the whole channel (left or right) is out of pahse, then that shold be easier to correct. bill gadsden was not specific if the problem was the channel, or just the vocals. hopefully, it is the channel?

Place a call for him on alt.Rec.music.gdead and wait for him to see it. If you are looking for real rarities he is your source of last resort. Comments: The tape quality has been affected by the age of the source tape and has suffered some generational loss. There is some hiss, marked at times, nearly absent at others. There is also some environmental noise contamination. Given the location and the proximity to the IDF bases nearby; this is unavoidable. I was in Tel Aviv doing some clinical research at the time of the Egypt shows. By the time I learned they were happening, the first show was over. There was no way to get from Israel to Egypt in time due to the necessity of flying to another country to enter Egypt instead of being able to go directly from Israel. I was horribly disappointed, not having seen the band in over a year. You can imagine my joy when a colleague working with me heard from a cousin in Ein Gedi that there was going to be an un-announced show. My project was winding down and I had only some data reduction left to do for completion. With no experimental demands, we were free to try to make it to the show. Hitchhiking is a recognized means of transport in Israel. We hit the road; and looking so obviously American, we made it to Ein Gedi with little difficulty but much road dust. The venue is incredible. Ein Gedi is a socialist Kibbutz hard on the banks of the Dead Sea. This is the lowest geological point on the earth's crustal surface, The Dead Sea is 1300 feet below sea level. Sulfur springs, moonscape-like terrain, blue water, blue skies, oasis, waterfalls, nature carried to extremes. This is the border between two tectonic plates. Farther south it is called the Great Rift Valley. Here, it's a wonderful tourist spot and a great venue. We gathered around an open stage with some of the strange salt formations on the audience left and the brilliant blue of the Dead Sea behind. It was hot, almost oppressive until the sun slid behind the hills. Then Ein Gedi like all desert communities gets chilly. Jackets were appreciated. A bottle or two of Israeli brandy slid by and the warmth provided was enjoyable. The band slowly took the stage. The crowd was noisy but very subdued compared to the crowds at home. There may have been 1500 of us sitting or standing on the lakeshore. Almost a private show! From the crowd noise I think that less than a tenth of the crowd were American. The lights went up, as the stars grew brighter. From the first audible notes, the show possessed a life of it's own. Promised Land as a sound check; Bobby taking no prisoners. Fervent applause from the crowd who understood the significance of Chuck Berry's song. Then we were amazed when they played it as the Set opener. Back-to-back Promised Land, a fitting opener for the Twice Promised Land. Cold Jordan slowed the pace a bit and drew locally fervent applause. Bobby began fiddling with his equipment and Jerry, apparently bored fell back to his early folkie days and launched the one and only Havah Naghilah tuning that the band ever played. The show was becoming more memorable by the minute. The crowd went wild at this point and the boys had the audience in their pocket the rest of the night. Bird Song, a standard reading; no major shakes, just some nice Jerry work. Then another salute to the host nation and its literature appeared from nowhere. Turn, Turn, Turn, a selection I never expected to hear from The Grateful Dead lay there in front of us. Weir strapped on an acoustic guitar and laid down some nice chord patterns. Jerry did a little noodling at the end and then the
gas jets
I also remember other shows where large gas jets were ignited behind the band but I can't say I remember explosions accompanying the jets, although it's certainly possible. for the ones that i saw, boots would light flash paper and throw it in the air. he would be center down stage, i.e. behind the amps.

Re: 9-3-67
I've got a cdr here that I need help to identify concretely. It's labeled 9-3-67 based on your setlist and band comments, that is 09-03-67. so you wuz there, eh, sandra? do tell more about the scene! did the gd play two nights? or just one night? and which night was it??? I-) ihor
Re: 12/7/68 One drummer?
on 12-07-68, after 'it hurts me too', garcia asks the audience what they would like to hear next, and he gets some responses, like 'morning dew' and 'alligator'. he replies:we're not gonna do alligator 'cause we're without a drummer, it's ahh... broke down there is some more dialog, including bear in the monitors, and they play 'morning dew'. the cdrs that i have are soundboard mono cassette, so it is hard to tell how many drummers there are, but during the quieter passages, it sounds like there is just mickey, and garcia's comments before 'morning dew' would support that. btw, this 12-07-68 show is well worth tracking down. the playing is very good, but even better is all the between song on stage bantering, with lots of bear in the monitors, adding to the weirdness!

Re: another interesting anthem note
i have 2 identical cassettes ( in every way, right down to upc numbers and everything). both cassettes have the same color cover as well??? one has the original anthem, and one has the phil remix. i believe that jerry was the culprit, or jerry and phil... there are no discerning marks between either of them. the vinyl does have markings. it is tougher to mark the cassette tape. also, soes anyone know if there is any plans to release the original anthem or aoxomoxoa on cd? the 'anthem original mix' is on cd and is part of 'the golden road' box set. the 'aoxomoxoa remix' is on cd and is part of 'the golden road' box set. there are at least two versions (i.e. from two different sources) of 'anthem remix' and 'aoxomoxoa original mix' (both on one cdr) being traded. so, if you buy the record company releases, and you trade for the cdr, you will have both versions of these two albums... i have the vinyl on both, but i no longer have a turntable. if the covers are in great shape, maybe we can make a deal??? contact me privately, please.

Re: Anthem and Aoxomoxoa
The new boxed set has the remixed Anthem and the remixed Aox. but the older CD's are the original mix of Anthem and the remix of Aox. Am I right? the box set has the 'anthem original mix' and the 'aoxomoxoa remix'. the older cds (i.e. warner brothers label releases) are the 'anthem original mix' and 'aoxomoxoa remix'. i have not been able to confirm an 'anthem remix' released on a warner brothers label cd...

festival express video (update)
i have updated my old postings with even *more* recent info... I-) ihor -- Subject: Re: festival express i took a look at the video(s) that i have: first off, text is overlaid on the image. this text appears throughout the tapes. in the center, just below the middle, is a big FE-8. centered near the bottom, in smaller text, is TCR 08:xx:xx:xx (where the xx are hours, minutes, seconds, and hundreds of seconds, counting up). below that is REC and LOCK. the overall picture quality is not that good - i'd say maybe 3rd or 4th gen. because much of the subtlety of the colors has been lost, the image is contrasty, there is edging around the text letters, etc. the over all sound quality is a b- or a c+. the approximately two hours of tape contains two versions (by that i mean different camera angles of the same performance) of 'cc rider' (at night), daytime performances of two acoustic 'don't ease me in', three versions of an electric 'new speedway boogie', three versions of 'hard to handle', and back to night performances for three of 'easy wind', and three of 'candyman'. the tape starts with 'cc rider', the beginning of which is cut. this appears to be an 'all star jam session' :-) on stage, at night. there are a lot of musicians, but i don't know them all. jerry garcia is playing what appears to be his red gibson, bill kreutzmann on tambourine, i think i spotted jack cassady, and the singer is sylvia, of 'ian and sylvia'. i was pleasantly surprised at how well this was played! usually, these 'all star jam sessions' are not that good. they invariably pick something that everyone knows (in this case, it is 'cc rider', a common blues number) and then everyone tries to play at the same time. here, there are real solos, and they are well played at that. unfortunately, garcia doesn't get to solo, although bill k. is quite audible at times. next is 'cc rider', same performance, but from a different camera angle. next, the FE-8 changes to FE-5, and the dead, during the day, perform an acoustic version of 'don't ease me in', with garcia and weir on acoustic guitars. next, the same performance of 'don't ease me in', but from a different camera angle. the dead then perform 'new speedway boogie', this time all electric instruments. then, 'new speedway boogie', from a different camera angle. then, 'new speedway boogie', from yet another camera angle. the dead then perform 'hard to handle', with a nice pigpen (in a tank top!!!) on harmonica solo, followed by a jam, and a very quick ending. this same performance is shown from a different camera angle. then, this performance is shown for a third time, again from a different camera angle. that ends the daytime performances. the FE-8 changes to FE-6, and the dead perform 'easy wind', again on stage, at night. there is no image in the middle of the jam, but the music is there. overall, a really nice version of 'easy wind'. very relaxed... next, there is some footage without sound. then, the same performance of 'easy wind', this time with some distant views and shots from behind the band. the sound cuts out in the middle of the jam. footage of sparklers at night, with carnival rides in the background (i.e. the band would see the carnival rides as they are play on stage). next, the same performance of 'easy wind'. the sound does not appear to be in synch with the image. the sound cuts after the harmonica solo. the picture cuts out after that, then cuts back in at the jam where pigpen returns for the ending vocals. pigpen is wearing his cowboy hat with a feather on the left side, leather jacket, with a shoulder patch on the right shoulder, and it looked like the whole middle back section was decorated... next is 'candyman', with no picture at the start. then, 'candyman' again, with different camera angles. then, 'candyman' again, which cuts out before the end. it almost seems that the performance was 'easy wind' and then 'candyman'? next, no image, but the FE-6 changes to FE-9, and that's it. i got my copy of this video (the FE-8 and FE-6 portions) last summer, from the person who offered it on deadlists, or where ever it was. it is on a one hour tape. i then recently received a copy of the FE-8, FE-5, and FE-6 portions, from someone else. i had a question about the source of the overlayed text (that FE-8, FE-5, FE-6, etc.), and here is the answer... A film archive company called Historic Films (formerly Ariq Films) had some of the footage from the Festival Express tour for a couple of years, which they got from the people who tried to put the film together before that. Historic Films never had access to the negative, only to the 30 year-old workprint, from which they made a fairly cheap telecine copy onto video. For 2 years, they had the right to license out this footage, but only as short (i.e. 30 sec.) clips. However, a few entrepreneurial types ordered VHS viewing copies of all the GD
