    My wife will tell you that I'm extremely Type A but also very lazy. It's an odd mix, but I do make her laugh at least three times a day and a happy wife = a happy life. Trust me on that.

    You haven’t seen it!? It’s crazy and has one of the best Davestractions ever when a sea lion jumps out of the water right next to him.





    I kid. I haven’t watched it either.

    I somehow happened upon the 4/7/72 China--> Rider transition and it's absolutely sick then beautiful. Isn't this what this band was all about?

    Dave films these just down the road from me, someday I'm going to photobomb one dressed as a giant oyster catcher.

    I do enjoy watching Dave's videos, his enthusiasm for this band is unbridled, and it has driven me to purchases I may not have made in the past without his hype. The videos usually have some interesting tidbits about the tapes past, the work done on it, some of the highlights from it and some of the hurdles to making it become a reality. I make a point of giving these videos and the listening parties a run through everytime, I think its a great way to promote the product.

    I’m leaving work in a little over an hour and will listen to Dark Star onwards from DP26/27 April ‘69 on the way home. I am genuinely excited about it. What a nice sensation.

    Attics of My Life.

    My. God.

    Thank you Robert Hunter.


    In the attics of my life
    Full of cloudy dreams; unreal
    Full of tastes no tongue can know
    And lights no eye can see
    When there was no ear to hear
    You sang to me
    I have spent my life
    Seeking all that's still unsung
    Bent my ear to hear the tune
    And closed my eyes to see
    When there were no strings to play
    You played to me
    In the book of love's own dreams
    Where all the print is blood
    Where all the pages are my days
    And all my lights grow old
    When I had no wings to fly
    You flew to me
    You flew to me
    In the secret space of dreams
    Where I dreaming lay amazed
    When the secrets all are told
    And the petals all unfold
    When there was no dream of mine
    You dreamed of me

    Hmmm... Fascinating... I can't quite specify exactly what it is, but for some Cosmically Unknown reason I'm liking it!!??? HUH...?! Wait a second... did I just smoke something? I don't remember doing so.

    I'm starting to get the eerie feeling that you are some kind of Psychic Magician or something. Damn strange... Maybe I'm just in an uncharacteristically mellow mood tonight.

    Anyway, I'm just talking very IMMEDIATE reactions here... Firstly, the sound quality is quite good. I kind of hate to admit this, but even from the first song Don't Ease Me In, a song I normally completely skip, right from the first note there is just something in the clarity, the energy of the strumming, something that doesn't sound too bad! And, I do like the harmonica in it (normally, I am EXTREMELY fussy about what type of harmonica I like - most times it usually strikes me as very saccharine and corny, but this has a nicely done Blues feel to it) Next... Oddly, although I DO usually like the song I Know You Rider, in this instance they are playing it very slowly which gives it a particularly moody feel that I really like! Even Black Peter, which I never like, has kind of a nice feel to it. These are acoustic, right? Not bad...

    This Cumberland Blues is WAY better! Excellent lead and I rather like the Jimmy Page-like rhythmic folk strumming too! Deep Elem Blues is better too. It's like their 'heart' is more in it or something...

    Nice 28 minute That's it for the Other One too. I normally do NOT like the older version of Dancing in the Street at all, but surprisingly this 16 minute one has a very good Jam in it!

    Excellent suggestion Bro!

    Oh, and I do indeed have several hundred CDs, I just don't buy then any more unless I'm looking for a very specific album that is only available that way (the last ones I remember buying I think was about 4 years ago. They were WITCHCRAFT: We Rest and a few Gothic LOVE LIKE BLOOD albums)

    Yeah, that's the one I got. I could have also gotten the full Blu-ray, but I passed on it.
