Sorry - only joking (I'll drop you a line when I've read it...I might not want to keep it, who knows)!  More seriously, it is available on Amazon Marketplace from £6.78 inc p&p.....



 I knew you were joking David and thanks for that really thoughtful offer.
I reckon I'll go for the one on Amazon - I'll check that out right now.  Smiley

IMO that's a photo of two of the finest and most innovative bass players in the last 50 years.
Long may they both continue actively performing.

I have (well, I don't but it's staring at me from 4 feet away waiting for me to do something with it for a mate) a, possibly unique and unopened (as in, still sealed in its delivery box) copy of Europe '72: The Complete Recordings.

No idea what it's worth, but I guess we'll find out...


Well, finally we have.  After a not particularly pleasant early morning drive from Chester to Donington Park services off the M1 and back it is now off to its new home near Bicester with it's delightful Deadhead owner (I suppose that's probably a given!).  We shared a Costa and a few happy tales of Wembley 1990 and Ratdog gigs we've both been to.  Oh yeah, £750 is the answer btw....  Smiley

Hope you burned yourself a copy first.  Smiley


Lol.  Was selling for a friend.  I've long had an, er, preview copy on my Hard Disk.  Sadly, like most of my digital Dead collection, I've probably only listened to about 20% of it (and that's probably an exaggeration)....

Anyone else going to the Live Dead '69 tour with TC, Mark Karan and Slick Aguilar?  I'll be at the Robin.  Can't wait.

Here might be a place to mention the imminent reissue of the Dead s/t. 2CD and a vinyl picture disc. But you guys probably know already.  Cool

Cool video here of John Mayer talking about and playing examples of GD songs and how he sort of checks in with Jerry Garcia as he plays. Anyone can view, you don't need to be a facebooker to view this...

Erm… yes, probably (still arguing the toss with friends).  They are on the Giants of Rock bill at Butlin’s Minehead (along with Steve Hackett, Tull, the Pretty Things, Atomic Rooster, Willie & the Bandits, etc.)

I quite like Under the Bridge as a venue.  Drinks are pricey, though.  Got to fund Costa’s wages somehow, I suppose…

Bob Weir's new band is playing two shows down the street from me this spring - should I do it?

I never saw the Grateful Dead...

Mrs. J From A said she'd come with me, in spite of reservations about jam-based music, so it looks like I'll be there.  Smiley

I doubt they'll be much 'jamming' in the 'jam band' sense of things...this is a very largely acoustic set up, isn't it?

Just booked - quite good seats at ACL Live for Bob Weir and the Campfire Band, Saturday, April 15. I am looking forward to this!
