Grateful Dead - 12/11/69 - Thelma Theater - Los Angeles, CA

3 hours of early Dead....hearing some sweet Tom Constantin licks on this. Ron M. was at his bluesiest live best on this recording.

The Missing Link....

A great mix of music....lots of that LSD inspired improv, I think. Not a lot of studio time, either, I think. They were refining their musical product....every time they played, live.

It's the Republican's, stupid.

That is who is allowing this Putin asset to destroy this country. They love the idea of a One Party State. Where they make the rules and the Courts agree with them.

David Bromberg - Wanted Dead or Alive - New Lee Highway Blues

https://music.&si=BP3fGuI0s-FaAQZP

Just a great tune....with the Dead backing him up. Not long after American Beauty, I think. Garcia on Banjo? Who's on violin?
