Re: The Grateful Dead Era(s)???? |
WT -
Although I saw the vast majority of my shows from '76- Spring '79, I spend most of my listening time with '68 to '74 - dominated by anything '68, the early '69 shows with the scarce Mountains of the Moon and '72. Spring 77 will always be high on my list (that's when I got my licesnse and Mom and Dad would let me drive to Capitol, Landover, Baltimore, and Philly to see shows - being a good student helped), as well as gems from the other periods (the acoustic work at the long Warfield run in the fall of '80 is stunning).
Interesting to see how others broke these years out. I'm still trying to venture into the Lost Years - nothing resonates yet - haven't given up though.

Nope. There're three of him. They are the only ones.

Re: The Grateful Dead Era(s)???? |
Very interesting that you're drawn to listen to the years when you didn't personally attend shows.
same for me. Majority of my shows were seen from '84-'89, (my very first show was 1/11/79--I caught ONE Donna/Keith show before they left!)...but I consider the years I saw most of my shows to be the band's weakest except for the horribleness of the late breakdown ending years...
The stuff I love most is '77-'79, when I was just a bit too young to be on the bus.

Re: The Grateful Dead Era(s)???? |
I rarely listen to the eras in which I saw shows.
I went to a whole lot between 83-95, but rarely listen beyond 74 now, and almost never beyond 81.
