Well, a non abstract answer is that "one world" refers to the entire human population of Earth, and "multiple worlds" refers to the same population divided into any chosen subdivisions. The current trajectory of human life on Earth - whether trending toward or away from unified governance - is open to conjecture and I'd agree is outside the scope of the thread. My original commentary was directly related to Jerry's quote about the 1960s. Edit:. Jerry was the lead guitar player of the band that is this thread's subject, who came together in the 1960s.
This may be a dumb question so excuse me for being a novice. Why are the cd's for Daves Picks #2 so damn expensive? Is the Dillon Stadium Hartford '74 show that good? I mean cd's? I know its limited to 12000 but it isn't LP's. $400 it just sold for on ebay. I can understand a vinyl limited edition but cd's? Can't they just be copied digitally?
Today’s listening is Listen To The River: St. Louis ‘71 ‘72 ‘73 — Fox Theatre, St. Louis, MO, 18/10/72. Continuing my journey through the Fox Box with this beauty—again, it’s sounds sumptuous. You all already know what a stellar show this is, especially that 2nd set opening sequence! Wow. I prefer this artwork from the standalone LP release, to the box set art. I: Bertha, Me And My Uncle, Don’t Ease Me In, Mexicali Blues, Brown-Eyed Women, Beat It On Down The Line, Bird Song, Big River, Loser, Jack Straw, Big Railroad Blues, El Paso, China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider. II: Playing In The Band > Drums > Dark Star > Morning Dew > Playing In The Band, Deal, Promised Land, Brokedown Palace, One More Saturday Night, Casey Jones. 1972/2021 Grateful Dead Records – R2 645687
Now listening to 10/17/83[Lake Placid NY]on TIGDH on SiriusXM's Grateful Dead channel via the webstream now playing Touch Of Grey.
Yeah, this is pretty cool, but it doesn't come close to @notesofachord's Grateful Dead Tower of Boxes.
I was hoping to catch a posting of '78 show over the last few pages, so I could comment, so anyhow currently getting a kick out of 4/24/78 disc one and two so far. There are a handful of shows from this tour in my pile, and when getting around to spinning one it's always very enjoyable. Love the Friend of the Devil and Cassidy while the hypnotic It Must Have Been the Roses is a favorite. Currently they are killing it on Scarlet Begonias, an absolute feast of texture with everyone at the top of their game and a beautiful segue into Fire. I'm warming up to Keith's CP-70, which occasionally keeps me at bay, but that will work itself out. Really enjoyable show though... cheers.
If you go back, I commented on a few shows from that April ‘78 run. One was hilariously censored by the Gorts. The Grateful Thread
^^ 4/24/78? In my study from a few years ago I found that this show had the second best version of "Music Never Stopped" with only 5/9/77 beating it.
I was at 4-24-78. lol And I made the only audience recording to ever surface from that gig. And it's one of the worst aud recordings. lol Great show, I didn't see a whole bunch but the ones I saw were good ones.
I remember somewhat, since I look at every page which is why I'm always behind. lol Can't comment in the other location since I can't log in which is why my responses are gapped, but catching up on the last 4-5 pages here at home (logged in), I think I had passed your '78 posts, but thanks my Aussie brother... always enjoy them.
As Wittgenstein wrote in section 1.1 of the Tractatus … Listening to Viola Lee Blues from 2/2/68. I always loved when Jerry plays lead in the lower registers, and he’s working it in this version with some killer tone. He seriously takes off after the 8 minute mark and lands in some fabulous feedback a few minutes later on. I’m pretty sure the peak of this Viola is what Wittgenstein is referencing at the end of said aforementioned work.
