Official Grateful Dead Thread

[Mowgli]

hello! I'm new to this thread. I've been listening to the frost ampitheater palo alto 5-6-89 tape and of the forty plus tapes i have it's the only onee with ''ship of fools''. Was this a rare live song? What are some other shows with this gem?

That looks like the same tiger maple guitar he used at the Closing Of Winterland show I watched some of earlier.
What a beauty!

 

[fishcane]

That guitar is Wolf!!

[Mowgli]

Need I say WOW?

More quilted than curly, it's a beauty!

The BW pic must be a pretty early edition of the wolf...note it has no wolf!

And damn - Jerry looks thin - that has to be about the most "buff" picture of him I've ever seen.

He's a stud there :yes:

The Wolf was originally a sticker that was later inlaid when it was in for repairs.

That pic was an original a buddy of mine sent me (actual print) that I just scanned.

I'd be curious to know the date...?

 

[Skylab]

Not sure of exact date...late 73/early 74.

 

[Mowgli]

So I started playing my 1977 live Dead in the car.
The first song on the first disc, wouldn't you know it, was...wait for it...

Terrapin Station of course. A very good version at that :yes:

Saturday, February 26, 1977 - Swing Auditorium – San Bernardino, CA

Now playing:

Oakland Stadium 7-24-87.avi (Vault IV part 1)

I'm just listening.
Almost every time I look to see what's happening some fool has Fu*ked with the video.
They thought what, that Fu*king with it makes it trippy?
No. It just makes it Fu*ked up.
Trippy is internal. Except Gumby. Gumby is trippy

 

[Ed in Tx]

Just lookin through my limited collection of DVDs, I have two Terrapin Stations to play this weekend, one July 4 1989 on Truckin Up To Buffalo, and the other on View from the Vault IV Oakland Stadium July 26 1987.

I'm sitting here listening to my "Dozin at the Knick" CDs I got in the mail today :thmbsp: ... about half way through disc 3.
It has a great version of "The Wheel" on it. Did Jerry and band ever do the whole "Garcia" album live?

 

[Lil' Brian]

Anybody ordering Dave's Pick Vol.3 ? Just wondering about it lately. Good show?

Mowgli- Your favorite show? If so, I'm writing that down. :thmbsp:

I read first part of August. Just curious about the show though as I haven't heard it.

I like it because it's furious and the recording is crisp.
It also has some warble but it has THE hardest Hard To Handle and that wicked 11 minute Mason's Children.
That and it was one of my 3 or 4 trader tapes back in the day.

I haven't heard the full show but will tonight some time.
There are 3 available to stream at archive (follow the link and chose "more versions").

Tell me how you like it.
