The Deadpod - A podcast by J.Henrikson - Fridays

Categories:

This week the Deadpod remains in Vegas, for the second set played on  April 27, 1991. I believe this is as fine a second set as you're likely to find from this Spring tour of 1991. Jerry is in really good shape here it seems as he hardly forgets a lyric and the band certainly plays a wonderful pre-drums set! Opening with Sugar Mag, then comes a heady combination of Scarlet->Fire->Playin->Uncle Johns! Yowza.. the amazing thing is that none of these, to my ears, is the real highlight of the set.. That comes post-drums, following a relatively pedestrian 'Miracle' when Jerry plays a 'Black Peter' for the ages. I know not everyone is a fan of this song, but I happen to love it, and I love this version.  They close the set, with of course, One More Saturday Night, but return to do my favorite encore of this Hornsby era, The Weight..    Grateful Dead 4/27/91 Sam Boyd Silver Bowl, Las Vegas Nevada   set 2 Sugar Magnolia  Scarlet Begonias > Fire On The Mountain ; Playing In The Band ; Uncle John's Band > Drums > Space > I Need A Miracle > Black Peter ; One More Saturday Night EncoreThe Weight You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod042514.mp3 Thank you to all my Brothers and Sisters who help support the Deadpod through your kind donations. See you back here next week..
