Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians, RFK Stadium, 1990

t900712b.jpeg

If you spent any time “tape trading” after the advent of CDRs, you probably had at least one spindle of shows. At one point I had lots of such spindles. I thought that I had gotten rid of most of them over the years, but I came across one the other day and this was the show right on top so I figured why not share (especially when someone has already archived it at the Live Music Archive).

July 1990 saw Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians opening for the Grateful Dead at Washington D.C.’s RFK stadium (read some brief thoughts from Edie Brickell about her history with the band). I’m pretty sure this would have been right around the time Brickell’s second album, the often-overlooked gem Ghost of a Dog came out.

Gratefully Dead With Pigpen

Screen Shot 2020-03-11 at 9.23.10 AM.png

I started a mix of some of my favorite Pigpen Grateful Dead tunes in 2019 around the time of his birthday (09/08) with the plan of posting it at the anniversary of his death (03/08). A few months ago, I finished the mix I wanted to post, did some quick artwork if anyone wanted it. And then I forgot about it. And March 08 came and went and the post sat in my Drafts. So here it is.

These are some of my favorite Pigpen Grateful Dead. Tracks. What are some of your favorites?

Daily Driver Summer 2019 (Trailer)

Screen Shot 2019-10-06 at 2.50.47 PM.png

Back in August as Summer was closing out, I posted a personal music mix that I had been listening to during the heat of the sunbaked Phoenix Summer. I called it “Daily Driver Summer 2019”. I know, not the most creative title, but, as I said at the time, I hadn’t really planned on posting it. It was just something I made for myself to listen to on my daily commute. What I neglected to tell you at the time, my dear readers is that there are actually two volumes. So I figured why not share the sequel as well. Please don’t hold it against me. I really didn’t mean to keep anything from you. Please enjoy now.
