The Music Never Stopped
This is the show where Mickey Hart had invited a couple of remarkable guests. Greg F., a patient with a neurological condition and his doctor, Oliver Sacks.
...
Dr. Sacks writes about the case study in his essay “The Last Hippie,” which was also loosely adapted into the film “The Music Never Stopped.” Greg was found wandering the streets of New York with a severe brain tumor. He recovers from the cancer after surgery, but he could no longer recall or create long-term memories. To him, it’s still 1968, the year he ran away from home. He comes alive in a miraculous way when he hears the music of the Dead and he is able to discuss his memories of the band and even recognized the smell of hash in MSG, "That's the best smell in the world!" he says. This is the first show he goes to after his doctor discovers how the music transforms him, he and Dr. Sacks are sitting next to the soundboard, if you hear anyone yelling for Pigpen then you're hearing The Last Hippie himself. This is one of my favorite stories about the music and its the inspiration for Mickey's work exploring the healing power of music.

Cant Even Listen to The Who
I used to go to Dead concerts and dance like there was no tomorrow. At the end of the concert I would yell and howl for as long as it took for them to
...
come back and to know how much I appreciated them. I used to consider The Who in my top three bands of all time behind The Beatles and the Dead. I now turn off their songs when they come on the radio. Late last night I was listening to this concert and really enjoying it. No song is the best ever, lyrics are occasionally messed up, but it made me smile. It made me smile that after all these years of listening since 12/31/71, unlike The Who, I am not sick of hearing them, that I still love their music, and that is after downloading and intently listening for two years since I discovered GDLive and now this great site. Song after song, time after time, and they still make me smile and I still marvel. How many times can I listen to Looks Like Rain and yet, I still love it. How many times can I listen to Morning Dew and yet, still consider it one of the most awesome songs of all time. This is not the greatest concert ever but it is very good and any concert that has Morning Dew is automatically elevated. I still love the Dead, yet cant even listen to The Who. 5 Stars!

that. I am sure there was a handful of heads that really wanted that High Time when they heard Jer start it up. 1st set is pretty rocky. 2nd set is better, still not as hot as 1991 got when they were on.

The quality of this is recording stellar. There are also some great AUD tapes from these shows that circulate. This is my favorite show of the post-Brent
...
era. I didn't go to too many shows in the 90's so I don't have a lot to choose from, but I saw a couple of dogs, and a couple of decent shows, but this one was the best, top to bottom. Listening to the tape, I love the little jam that happens in New Speedway. Weir's slide playing starts as a nice comp behind Garcia, and then kind of jumps into the foreground. Still a hint of the old spark!
