Notes

Recorded, mastered, and tracked by Scott Bernstein

Papa Mali (Malcom Welborne) - guitar, vocals
Bill Kreutzmann - drums
George Porter, Jr. [The Meters] - bass, * = George on vocals
Matt Hubbard - keyboards, harmonica, trombone

+ = w/"Within You Without You" (The Beatles) jam, bass solo

- "Seven Walkers" and "New Orelans Crawl" are new Robert Hunter-penned songs for this band
- Set 2 outro includes the beginning of the "Different Strokes" theme played over the PA as a tribute to Gary Coleman who died earlier in the day

This was a really sweet show in many ways -- a unique pairing of my favorite bassist with Bill K, one of the only drummers who can play "loose" and "tight" at the same time, and a swampy guitar player/singer with tons of soul. Cool song selection combining Grateful Dead classics, New Orleans covers (George's territory), blues covers/sprirtuals/traditional numbers (Papa Mali's territory), and originals written by Robert Hunter specificially for this band. If you want to boil the whole thing down to one song to sample, just give a listen to Junco Partner, the encore -- you'll get the idea. Too bad they didn't do Papa Mali's rendition of Guilded Splinters -- that's one that never fails to impress!

Go see them when they come to your town!

Subject: Great show! Thanks, Billy & All

Fabulous combination of GD and NO! BB is an intimate and informal venue. Got really high on the vibe and whatever I could ingest. Everybody danced and got up close to the band. Like the early 70s. Come back soon, boys!
