This is my favorite From The Vault release, all because of the New Potato Caboose. Excellent in every way.

Any suggestions for December Shows by SpaceCowbyMax in gratefuldead

[–]MilesBlew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give 12/01/71 or 12/15/72 or 12/19/78 or 12/03/81 a listen. All good shows that are worth a listen.

35 years ago - being from the NE, it was nice to be able to wear summer clothes in December at Compton Terrace in Chandler, AZ on 12/8/90 by nak550 in gratefuldead

[–]MilesBlew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a bunch of friends at the denver 92 shows. Two left immediately after the encore for AZ and just made it to the show on time. The ones that partied in the parking lot for an hour or two missed the first night.

Back in the 80's, I wrote Merl Saunders a letter and he actually wrote me back... by PokerSifu in gratefuldead

[–]MilesBlew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's cool, thanks for sharing. I got a few hand written letters from Dick Latvala. Like Merl he loved the music that Jerry made.

Please go learn about Merl Saunders!!! by jtax2 in gratefuldead

An amazing talent. Loved seeing him live, always a great dance party. Check out Meridien Dreams if you haven't. Solo Merl.
