San Francisco I assume.
Just a bit south from there, yes.
I liked the Mick Taylor songs. The others seemed out of place for a Dead concert. Better than canceling I guess.
Dead fans are a DEADicated bunch. Sorry about that.
No need to apologize. I’m one of them!
Also, you’ve got to be there and experience a Dead audience.
The Grateful Dead had one of the most musically aware audiences I’ve ever spent time with. If the music wasn’t happening, they would notice. And when the magic did show up, what a party!
One time at Cal Expo, the Dead closed the 2nd set with “Not Fade Away.” As the band left the stage, we clapped the Bo Diddley beat for them, and kept on clapping. For five minutes, we entertained ourselves with that beat. Dancing and clapping Bo Diddley. No one ever shouted, “More!” No one ever screamed for an encore. We were patient, and we were having fun. And we just kept clapping Bo Diddley until band had had their break, and returned to finish the concert.
What a great audience!

Here's Phil and Friends from their concert last night in New York. The lineup features Warren Haynes and Jimmy Herring, two fine guitarists, along with perennial band mate, drummer John Molo, and Rob Barraco on keys.
Song selection on these teasers from Relix is pretty good: "St. Stephen -> The Eleven" from the first set, and "Uncle John's Band" from the second.
Listen for the fun 11:8 time signature on The Eleven. Count fast, like this: ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three, ONE-two.
EDIT: Just played this again, and now I am hearing a kind of shuffle on beats 1-9, where beats 2, 5, and 8 are omitted, so it goes like this: ONE-(two)-THREE, ONE-(two)-THREE, ONE-(two)-THREE, ONE-TWO. Very nice. You can listen here.
Enjoy!

Can’t get the link to work for some reason.
Although Jerry Douglas may be better known as a member of Alison Krauss & Union Station, his solo work in bluegrass and old-time music is just as good. "In addition to his fourteen solo recordings," reports Wikipedia, "Douglas has played on more than 1,600 albums."
Here we have Jerry Douglas performing a couple of versions of the Duane Allman tune, "Little Martha."
Enjoy!
Oh, how I wish I were a better musician!
I'm talking about the Phil Lesh performance of "The Eleven," I posted earlier this week. Perhaps someone will double-check me on this, but now I'm hearing beats on the "AND" that is halfway between beats 2/3, 5/6, and 8/9. Beat "(two)" is silent, so the 11:8 time signature is counted like this:
ONE-(two)-AND-THREE, ONE-(two)-AND-THREE, ONE-(two)-AND-THREE, ONE-TWO.
This is the third time I've tried to count this. It's tricky, but that's what makes these odd time signatures so alluring. Hopefully the third time is the charm.
Clued in to this song from a Korean movie. Shin Hae-chul was an interesting musician spanning decades, mostly experimental stuff but he covered the whole range from metal to pop to rap to jazz. Died at the hands of a shady surgeon. This song is kind of a blend of techno metal and traditional Korean sounds. Different, pretty good.
Adele's new release "Easy on Me" came out last Friday and promptly set a new record for the most Spotify streams ever in a single day.
Music producer Rick Beato gives a quick breakdown of the song, and explains why he thinks it is so popular: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pTssBcIsz8
Even if pop is not your usual fare, you may find yourself liking this one.
