    I've got all of these Garcia Live's (plus a few other JGB albums) loaded onto a playlist in Spotify and I play it all the time. Put it on shuffle play and groove to it.

    Good plan. I play a lot of these as I hike in the woods-can’t be beat!

    That was the first non dead garcia tape I had. Got it in late 72. Been a favorite ever since.

    The river so white, the mountain so red and with the sunshine over my head
    The honky-tonks are all closed and hushed
    It looks like Palm Sunday again
    It looks like Palm Sunday again
    It looks like Palm Sunday again

    The river so white -
    Jesus in his white robe
    and with the sunshine over my head - riding into Jerusalem on his donkey
    the mountain so red - the blood

    Only played twice


    Nice version, Jerry talks quite a bit.
    From 3/19 -1978. A Sunday. The Sunday before Easter

    And what is the symbolism of the "honky-tonk?"

    Is it anymore than just the Saturday/Sunday dichotomy that appears in so many blues and country songs, dating back to the earliest days of the those genres

    Just got the email this morning reminding me this is the March album of the month at Garcia provisions- $12.99.

    If you don't have the CD just go buy it. If you prefer vinyl, well...

    ....you are out of luck. It’s a cd only physical release.

    Which is a shame, it's a fine recording and the length would translate well to vinyl.

    The first 2 have been released on vinyl, I'd imagine it's just a matter of time.

    Who knows what they will come up with and why. That last vinyl release I could have lived without. I can only assume they thought having Bela Fleck sit in on a few tracks would move the pressing quickly but it's close to being the last one I would have picked.

    I love that show, and would have bought it, but I stopped buying large LP sets from concert recordings...

    Volume one is perhaps my favorite lp set of all time. It sounds so good you can smell Jerry’s ashtray. That Bela set doesn’t sound much better than the recordings that circulated for free. The content is fine but you have heat wind blowing into the vocal mics. It’s just not a great recording and that’s the first priority of an LP release for me.

    We're still waiting for the GD's 3-1-69 show to be released on vinyl.

    The music from the Fillmore West run is great but I am no a huge fan of the way they did the mastering.

    They are releasing 5/3/72 for RSD so that will be nice. Then they should release the entire E72 run in high resolution.

    That's fair, it sounds pretty typical for JGB recordings of that era though, and the performance is dynamite.

    After Jeff Norman gets a chance to re-mix it proper, he has stated on record he'd love to fix the mix.

    Announcement soon for the next Garcialive? It is about due unless there are more ambitious plans in the making. I am wondering if they may have a 1975 show with Nicky Hopkins in the queu.

    I'd like to get a show from the Ozzie Ahlers band. It's been a while.

    I will also mention Reconstruction( again). Three or so shows in a box set would be something very interesting. Technically John’s band so it would be a different process.
