Tonight's R4 Archive Hour is entitled: The Grateful Dead are More Important than the Beatles. Some folk will know I have no time for Beatles, so I can afford a little smile. Stupid attention gathering headline but it's actually quite an interesting programme I think (or looks like it will be given a news article I was reading about it yesterday). https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0032qmb Here's the article (unpaywalled) https://archive.is/CB3sZ Hopefully, one day, somebody will answer as to why so many (particularly American) Deadheads are right wing. I suspect it's that RW/Utilitarian crossover point, but what do I know... I literally don't know what to do with the "I have no time for the Beatles" bit. It's utterly meaningless to me. I bet a large percentage of the people whose music you have time for had an awful lot of time for the Beatles themselves? |

Just hope he hasn’t come back before he is properly better… and that if it was a virus that it hasn’t been spread to any of the other boys… or audience.
Virus illnesses can be very nasty 😥 |

Awful though to be missing bits of the tour.

Richard's You Me Us by Music on Vinyl, as a double album. Also a black friday release of unreleased live recordings of Richard and Linda. 2LP, afaik. Only vinyl buffs need apply. I believe the live recordings are those that were included with the Rhino double CD reissue of Shoot Out The Lights a few years ago. Taken from the infamous final US tour. It looks as if Talking Elephant are re-releasing Red and Gold, with a couple of (presumably period) bonus live tracks. [Edit - I see that David has also mentioned this in the Fairport chatter thread] That's interesting- limited CD release before. Yes, final tour. |

Does anyone know what is the matter with Ric at the moment? He has missed two autumn tour shows after his doctor had told him to stay at home. Just a virus, isn't it? There's a lot of it about... |
