WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

The Who ‘Live At Leeds’. Some of John’s best stuff. I have seven songs learned. Maybe I should send Pete a file. Perhaps he’ll take me on tour. Yea, right!

Good choice! Entwistle inventing rock bass playing and tone.

some damn cool bass on that album...

I've been on an Eva Cassidy thing today. And about 50,000 volts of caffeine later, I feel pretty good. Little shaky. But stuff makes sense again. There is still melody running in my head. And I can still find the dadblame ones. My fingers are there. I just know it. I can see them. Sing it, girly.

Was just listening to a SBD of the 2/13/70 Fillmore early show. My fourth Dead show, first time hearing the Allman Bros. and only time I got to see Love. Sure wish I had been able to stay for the late show! Both nights, early and late are really good.

Stephen, someone drew my attention to the 2/11/70 Show at Fillmore the other day, because several members of Fleetwood Mac and the Allman Bros. were in for a jam... did you happen to make that show? I'm curious about who was in on it. I figured Peter Green, maybe Jeremy Spencer at that time.

Hey Greg, did not make it to this show but it is considered one for the ages. According to Phil's book the participants in the Darkstar/Lovelight jam are Duane Allman, Greg Allman, Butch Trucks, Berry Oakley (takes over for Phil halfway through Lovelight), Peter Green, Danny Kirwin, Mick Fleetwood (not sure if Mick actually played anything but percussion, Arthur Lee of Love also plays percussion. There is one really blurry picture floating around where you can see everyone on stage together, think the show ended at 7:30 AM! Easy to find recordings on the Live Music Archive or Youtube if you want to check it out.

Thanks!    Danny Kirwan is currently my favorite of all the Mac guitarists. (almost like Dead keyboardists...) I will look.

Stephen, very cool you got to see those shows!

Greg, here are a couple of links, I love their raw sound from this era:

From reading several accounts & watching a few videos (different edits, I think), I would say that at one time or another you hear J. Garcia, B. Weir (who seems to have stepped out early; maybe as soon as Duane came on), P. Lesh, M. Hart, B. Kreutzmann, P. Pen, D. Allman, G. Allman, B. Oakley, B. Trucks, P. Green, D. Kirwan, J. Spencer, M. Fleetwood, and A. Lee.  (Mick & Arthur just on percussion; Butch took over Mickey's kit, and Mickey switched to hand percussion).

That is a quite an impressive, and comprehensive list. Especially if this was a free-for-all jam. Not that I have any trouble believing that bunch could pull it off. Wow. Must have been a heluva show.

“P. Pen”.   Love it!

The most unique version of Billy Jean I've ever heard.
