    I get to interview him tomorrow. I was watching some videos and found this one that explains about writing Sunshine.

    That version of "Sugaree" was pretty good but I like the studio version much better.

    I used to be a huge Deadhead -- they were the first concert I ever saw...March 1973 at the Nassau Coliseum, Long Island, NY.

    But I've taken a revisionist view of their work in recent years...and my tastes have changed, I must admit.

    I heard -- and I don't know this for a fact -- that the vocals on Europe '72 were overlaid on top of the live tracks in the studio. (That would explain why they sounded so good on that live album because their vocals generally s---, um, let's just say they weren't very good.)

    But I still think that Garcia was one of the great rock guitarists and wrote many fantastic songs. My favorite album is American Beauty.

    Something about "live" recordings that are not advertised, is that most have some level of overdubbing -- drum beat off or muffled guitar. When the 40th Anniversary of Woodstock came out, there was some serious overdubs, most with original artists if they were alive, but some with different artists. The unfortunate reality is that it is very difficult to walk away from a live recording with everything intact.

    One of my best friends for about 30 some odd years has always been involved in music, engineering, producing. Well his son is a musician and in a band called, The Black Angels. This week they got their network premiere on Letterman and it went great.

    billy Mumy was the brain behind Barnes and Barnes. (Those old enough will remember that he was the young boy on Lost In Space) Dr. Demento played this song almost weekly on his syndicated radio show for years and gave the song exposure.

    only cos I can

    Wife Barbie?

    my 7th corps friend walked in on him and a gal (not barbie) in bed

    i can't imagine anyone wanting to do that

    but then think again about veepster

    when i had the unfortunate trip on the coach he served drinks and drove the bus

    i guess veepee liked psychos

    i told this a million times on here -- when veepee and geeree were delivering puppies, they went insane when barbie didn't do something right in pulling a puppy out

    they talked to her like she was worse than a dog

    oh man i have other true things about this piece of sheet and how he ruined the lives of really good people in GB

    Bless Patrol?

    In the early days of GreaseSpot, a GSC member was in New Knoxville. It was a snowy night, She had a mobile setup and was in the chat room saying where she was. Within seconds, she saw lights and "Bless Patrol" was whizzing down the road. As she moved around New Knoxville, unmarked vans would pass her. (This was in the middle of the night)

    Quite amusing and really showed how close they were monitoring this site

    Joe is in a lot of pain. The doctors are doing their best to make him comfortable. They are limited on painkiller options as some lead to very shallow breathing and he can't go that route. (ala Michael Jackson)

    But he does have much better color in his face.

    He may need some additional surgery for some "leakage" in the lungs, won't know that for sure for a few days.
