Dead Show/podcast for 4/6/18

The Deadpod - A podcast by J.Henrikson - Fridays

Categories:

This week's Deadpod features the 2nd set from the band's March 30th, 1987 performance at the Spectrum in Philadelphia PA. In general, while Jerry's vocals may not be top-notch, his playing throughout is. We start out with a bouncy 'Iko,Iko', always flavored with Brent's tasty keyboards. A somewhat unique stand-alone 'Saint of Circumstance' follows and  flows into one of the highlights here, a long and well-developed 'He's Gone'. Drums and Space flow into a nice uptempo 'Truckin', which disolves into a very tasty, if short, 'Other One'. The Wharf Rat follows, and while I would have preferred a longer denounment here, the 'Throwin' Stones', 'Not Fade Away' was an enjoyable if somewhat predictable closing of this set. Jerry returns with a sweet 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue' encore.    Grateful Dead The Spectrum Philadelphia, PA 3/30/87 - Monday   Two   Iko Iko [6:37] ; Saint Of Circumstance [6:21] > He's Gone [14:56] > Drums [9:44] > Space [7:3#0] > Truckin' [7:05] > The Other One [6:11] > Wharf Rat [9:21] > Throwing Stones [8:18] > Not Fade Away [7:04] Encore It's All Over Now, Baby Blue [7:39]   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod040618.mp3   I hope Spring warms up for all of us soon...
