This was the first year I started taping.. I mail ordered taper seats.. I had a nakamichi bx-125 and a set of nakamichi cp300 mics... Life was good in the tapers section... I miss all of you guys...

[@arweb1994]

Jerrys sound is unreal during candyman. Beautiful.

[@Deadhead_Ed]

Never miss a Brent opener🎉

[@sergiof8625]

I love Brent, my favorite era of the Dead!

[@patzimmer1052]

I'm only recently discovering how fun and awesome Brent is. So much joy. Great show, thanks!

[@Stonecrow25]

Pat Zimmer he is on fire for the pockey way opener

[@redwoodcoaststudio1610]

He’s totally fun and awesome and soulful, and also an absolute virtuoso musical genius. The level of interplay between Brent and Jerry that started in summer/fall 89 and went through Brent’s last took the band to new heights. And depths. 89 space could get to Bach concerto territory with Brent on the harpsichord and Jerry on the bassoon or French horn.

[@rebecca8866]

I love how they flow & blend effortlessly into different songs. It's incredible 🥰💖

[@scarletbegonias2359]

Back in the days when I would drive 400 miles to see one show then back home after the show only to go to work the next morning with little or no sleep. It was worth it. Why I didn't fly is beyond me...

[@zachhessler8722]

I drove up from Santa Barbara that night. Not as far as you. Back to Uni for class the next day.

[@joebeber7997]

man im 17 and my dad was a dead head in the 70s on and man do i wish i could have seen jerry play just once. i love mayer and think he does great but man, if only i could have joined some of you great people at one of these entrancing events. what a perfect time in american history

[@markgarrett4700]

You know what we likes ! It was quite a ride ... 419 GD shows from 79 till the end in 1995. There was nothing like the good old Grateful dead!

[@josevillarreal9920]

It was Joe, '87 had a very promising energy and till '90 was the healthiest Jerry had been. U could tell it affected the boys and energy of the music. Listening to the Deer Creek '90 shows on this yrs release it's amazing how crystal clear the sound is on Jerry's guitar and the band. I'll never forget the Fadeaway encore. It was intense.

[@redwoodcoaststudio1610]

Hey now, just make sure you have a high quality stereo and a good frame of mind to match and you can still experience the magic. I mean real magick. The dragon lives forever! Remember, the original Grateful Dead was, in fact, dead. 😜⚡️💫🃏

[@stevegumyula9456]

Well...... kind of blown away no one had any great things to say about this show... Jerry was totally juked on his guitar as demonstrated during CandyMan followed by Masterpiece... Guitar was tuned as good as it gets. Bobby obviously having a high time, as Brent and Phil had to turn it up to keep pace. Remember this was shortly after "In the Dark" hit big time. Soo did the Band. They were always Big Time, but never in spotlight as it was. It was a blessing, as well as a kiss of the inevitable. I was fortunate to see about 105 show from 1987 to 1994. I have tried out some Dead and Co. since then, but no where near the space your face kind of music the Band possessed during the Brent years. Love it all .... FOREVER

This was my first dead show,thanks so much for posting. This is a real treasure for me. So many memories of so many great people I enjoyed this show with.

[@anna42059]

thank you for posting , that summer of 87 was awsome i was at these shows, coming from seeing them in oakland with dylan, hitting theses two, then down to laguna seca for 3 then back up to mountain air angels camp for 2 to close out the summer. sandwitched inbetween the shows i hitt up 2 pink floyd, rush and a metallica concerts

[@godfreydaniel6278]

Time well spent...

[@zachhessler8722]

I was at this show. Graduated from high school in '87. This was after my first month of college in Santa Barbara. Met a fellow head and we drove up the coast. I was at Laguna Seca as well. I remember the stunt planes came out between bands. There was a guy out on stage making weird sounds until I heard the plane coming in and the word "g force." It took a couple more minutes to realize he'd been talking in English about the planes the whole time. Whoaaaa! Reel me in. This was the first year I saw more than 10 shows. Saw a Dylan/Dead show as well.

[@zachhessler8722]

Saw the Floyd show in L.A. as well. Same orbit as you.

[@sergiof8625]

Yo don't forget Brent. Bob has even said the years with him were some of the best years on the dead. 🌹 💀 🎸

[@josevillarreal9920]

The drum sessions in '87 were pretty intense. There was one @Alpine Valley that lead to sounds of bears n lions roaring that blew my wig clear back. Especially being 17 and experimenting with mind expanding tools. We had it so good back then!

Can tell from the middle of Candyman that this one is fire. Bobby milking the jam during Minglewood earned a "what's up bud?" look from Jerry 😆❤🗣💨

Brent should have become the front man. Dude invigorates not just Jerry, but everyone else too. Billy grinning ear to ear and dancing during Hey Pocky Way says it all...

[@tovebeatty2204]

I'm sorry but his train songs SUCKED. He never picked up the Hunter-Barlow songwriting bug and wrote intolerable "time to run to the bathroom during this song" songs. Great keyboard player, crappy songwriter.

[@tovebeatty2204]

And with Jerry there, you think BRENT should've been FRONT MAN? How about Donna? Is she second on your list for out of tune lead singer?

He definitely brought a soulful kind of New Orleans vibe to the band very big loss when he passed away. He was also a songwriter and he and Jerry collaborated together to write songs so that's a double loss.

[@russroland5830]

I've always enjoyed the end of that solo Jerry basically pulls the strings up and makes that amazing last few strokes. It's almost like Jerry was a little irritated with Bob soloed so he just ges off there LOL but hands down the best part about that entire show and my opinion is right after that when Bob says It's T out here in this garbage heap where the little girls know what to do 😮😮😢because he forgot where they were. I never would have guessed what Bob said but it was bonus footage from some VHS dead show I had years ago and it had the lyrics turned on

Bob's Esau was pretty damn sweet. What's the back story, if any, on why he dropped it?

[@kaspen100]

apparently, he just didn't like the song (or So I've read)

[@michaeliscoool]

edit: TLDR "It was the National's idea. I had to finally address the [lyrics of] the bridge, which was why I stopped doing it back when." By then, Barlow had long since published the lyrics to his Grateful Dead songs, so I was able to read the lyrics. But the story remained vague and ill-defined to me, instead of becoming clearer with the possession of the words. Then, in 2012, at a TRI Studios broadcast, Weir brought it back, with some alterations in the lyrics, meant to make the song more lucid. From Alex Allan’s Grateful Dead Lyric and Song Finder site: Weir revived the song playing with members of The National in the Bridge Sessions at TRI Studios in March 2012. Thanks to David Gans for the info. Weir commented: "It was the National's idea. I had to finally address the [lyrics of] the bridge, which was why I stopped doing it back when." The new bridge is: Esau won't miss his birthright anyway Ain't like it's worth all that much today edit: TLDR "It was the National's idea. I had to finally address the [lyrics of] the bridge, which was why I stopped doing it back when."

Lots of the 88 shows look how the band has smiles on their face Jerry playing and singing with more gusto. Jerry came back just years before from the diabetic coma. Bottom line The Music Never Stops.
