The big box that is coming out this year needs to be a **** ton of freaking Pigpen. Maybe a compilation of every freaking Good Loving rap and every Lovelight rave-up back to back....chicken shack.
11 7 85 Wow. Awesome setlist. Sucky performance. I dont know what to feel. Jerry is in god awful form tonight. Worst Touch ever. But we do get an interesting setlist that is not strong enough to carry a poor performance. Also. Second set LIG?!
An honest man with an open mind and not so much of an agenda that it contorts what you say here. I was going to say "as honest as a Denver man can be," but I don't know what that means, and the dude shot his uncle. Although murder isn't necessarily related to honesty.
Jerry played a lot of great chicken pickin` guitar that night ( a lot of country flavored songs that night), are you referring to his voice ?
Absolutely. I know its par for the era but still that Touch is a trainwreck. People missing transitions and this and that. Set 1 was ok but seemes really rushed and sugar-fuelled if you know what i mean lol. Jist sprinting to the finish line haha. The best thing of the show was LIG imo. The whole thing was killer abd its rare set placement added to it for me
I remember the 11/7/1985 Let It grow as a pretty good one anyway. Will have to play through set II again sometime. A few people even put that Touch up on Heady Version Grateful Dead Nov. 7, 1985 | headyversion
I'm pretty sure Dylan and the Dead would come out as a Dylan thing. I doubt they will go with an 87 box set, they will use returned Betty Boards probably.
Yeah, something tells me the likelihood of the Dylan people and the Dead people coming together to revisit Dylan and the Dead would be a hair more complicated than it was 30 years ago. The Bootleg Series has thrown us some real surprises, but I can't imagine Dylan and the Dead is high on their list, and it's even harder for me to imagine them doing it as some kind of non-BS release, not least because archival Dylan releases outside of that particular umbrella are so rare.
I think it is a likely Bootleg Series entry at some point - sort of a two-disc cherry-picked best of and the big set being the complete Dylan sets from every venue. But there's probably a number of things on the queue before then with Dylan and the BS releases.
I could be completely wrong, but somewhere along the line I got the impression that Dylan owned the rights and the GD were essentially just his backing band, contractually speaking. Supposing that's the case, Dylan's camp wouldn't need any additional permission, would they? They could do a Bootleg Series release of it whenever...?
I kind of like that LA show. I mean, the vibe was pretty harsh both in and outside the venue. Way Too Many Cops. But the performances aren't bad. The Shakedown is fun. But I hear you - not a Top 10 '91 show by any stretch.
That would be the sensible approach. And I would buy it. That changes the calculus somewhat, I would think. And now that you mention it, that sounds familiar. It's been years since I've read anything about that tour and the resulting album.
Regarding Dylan and the Dead- CM recently dropped an UltraMatrix of the Anaheim show. I believe there is more to follow, no need for an official release. They can focus on important projects, like 1973.
Anyone heard the complete shows for the 'Go To Nassau' release? I go a fair few years before I return to that release and it gets better every time, the first cd is AWESOME.
Agree that 12/3 was pretty weak. I was there but have never felt compelled to go back and listen to it, which is very unusual for a 1990 show.
