Subject: Alligator>Caution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know that the previous 25 people said the same thing that I am about to say,but Alligator> Caution is sick as F%$K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best that these fairly young,yet pretty well trained ears have heard! The sound is great,also.Some hiss is expected with a recording this old,but I think that the hiss in these early tapes adds a more vintage tone.If you could be more vintage than thuis!I love this band,and this site.How many bands have a documented history such as this?!? And all this music for free!! What more can you ask for? I'm giving it 8 stars just because that's how I roll! PEACE,LOVE,& THE GRATEFUL DEAD!!!!!!!!!!

Winter of 67'....."-ACID MUSIC-".....

This show comes out strong and delivers right to the end. Wonderfully delightful. Pigpen was the secret ingredient, this show reveals his influence.

For the fans of "Alligator-Caution" this show is the 'Holy Grail' of them all...

I Love "ALLIGATOR-CAUTION". It's one of the best songs the GRATEFUL DEAD ever did and there's been nothing like it ever since. This performance is probably one of the best there is of these songs. CAUTION into Feedback is classic 1967.

This is a "MUST HAVE" show.

I highly recommend adding this show to your 1967 GRATEFUL DEAD collection.

Back in the early 70's in a book about the GRATEFUL DEAD, Neal Cassady's rap came free as a plastic record insert. I used to have it. Nice to hear it again.

Here's one way to download this show:

Eat, Drink, Be Merry and listen to the GRATEFUL DEAD.

Thanks for the "LOVE" from the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium in 1967.

I miss 1967

Unbelievable...that's it. Just unbelievable. You can hear everyone. Incredible balance for such an old show.

This is Good Ol' Grateful Dead. High-powered blues at its finest. Shows like this are why I listen to the Dead. There is an evolution in their music that is just phenomenal to listen to. It's an endless exploration into what these guy's were doing.

Read what everybody else has written about this show. It's all true.

The Dead constantly amaze me.

Peace.

Subject: Parts of this Caution mixed on Anthem of the Sun. One of the great Cautions.
Starts with a bluesy, mellow Viola Lee--before the speedup. This was NOT one of the first times for Hurts Me Too. At this time it was one of their oldies--they played it most of 1966. Listen also to Phil’s walking bass here. A fine group effort.

Jerry fires it up on Morning Dew—again, with some great accompaniment from Phil. It’s not Jerry soloing, but a Jerry and Phil duet. A fine Dew.

Not one of the better Cryptical/Other Ones of the year, sloppier than most. (Check out 10/22/67 here at archive, for instance.) The Neal Cassady rap is pretty interesting, done over the “Lovelight” riff. (Neal Cassady is “Cowboy Neal at the wheel” of the Other One, for those who didn’t know.) The Notes below says this is from a 7/23/67 Acid Test.

A great Alligator: bluesy, psychedelic, energetic and spacy at times, going to a 22-minute frenetic Caution, for me, the show highlight. This Caution
ebbs and flows, changing direction—kind of the way Playing in the Band did in the early-mid ‘70s, but sounding very different. We get several Phil solos, Pigpen harp solos, Pigpen rapping over space effects, and some fiery outbreaks from Jerry. It evolves into acid space, then it absolutely explodes near the end and fades into space, like a supernova. A great way to end a 60’s Dead show.

The show itself is a pinnacle of the Band in 1967. Smokin' hot!!! But the sound of this recording is so incredible 40 years later! Holy cow!! What a pleasure to have in my ears. Meltdown jams that will not quit.........A lil' Hank Williams for some flavor and there you go....This show should be in the time capsule for human achievment for the next generations or species to trip on! SHHHEEEIT!!

A-plus-level jams: Viola Lee Blues, Good Morning Little Schoolgirl.

Why it's five stars: I know it's stating the obvious for many of you, but the Dead was a tight, tight blues band in 67. Until fairly recently, 72 was about as far back as I went. Their sound had changed (evolved?) significantly by that time. I love hearing how through-the-decades staples sounded in 67, like Morning Dew and Estimated Prophet, when effects were more limited, but they played more rootsy, tighter, and maybe more authentically than they did later down the road.
The Cassady rap is cool to hear, too. Red Tom Wolfe's "Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" some time back, and it's cool to hear somebody rapping the way it was described in the book. Quite a trip.
There are no weak cuts here. A great example of a great phase.

I also bought this show on cassette in a record store in the Loop area of St Louis, sometime in late 97/early 98. This Viola Lee Blues STILL blows me away. It's like an old friend. But one who still surprises you. I can't even begin to review this show, it is such an important recording in the Dead archives. A snapshot of a wonderful period of the band's evolution. Listen to it again, folks...

Subject: Shrine... stunning show
They played some smoking shows there and this was the beginning of that run. Love the hurts me too this had to be one of the first times that was played - Like all tapes from this era it's the Pig show rather than Jerry although he owns this hot Dew.

Subject: Awesome
I wish I had made the long drive to Snow Ridge for this show as the set list included many of my favorites.

The venue sounds awesome- the perfect amount of reverb, fuzztone bass and not boomy, perfect!

I highly recomend this show to any Ha Ha the Moose fan.

This was the first tape I ever had made for 2dollars at a den in the Loop area of Stl.

Some friends,at the time, said I can't get into their music because I don't know what their talking about.
I knew they were full of shit and that's when the guitar and myself got acquainted.

Jail,love,spring fever,wars bad,youth is good and bad,staying away from life's ills.

I will say this Viola Lee Blues hit my ears in the evening January 2001 in the right place.

1967 is my favorite year of GD... if you weren't fortunate enough to get this show before they yanked it, you must at least stream it... effin crystal-clear sound, and fabulous performances, 67whitehot! One of the best straight-ahead Viola's ever...

Reviewer: cardgamermanguy - - June 21, 2005
Subject: Best of Dead
This era is definitly the best for the dead, especially jerry. His guitar play was never near as fierce later on and the sound he got from his amp was one bad ass sound (Viola Lee Blues being the best example) along with the Les Paul which I will continue to comment was his most fitting guitar.

On to the show. Great quality on the first four songs not including hoot jeer. Then on the Neal Cassidy it sucks, but it isn't of any importance. Then for the last half. It is only a little less than the first four, but performance fuckin' rips all the way through. The guys were on fire.

Subject: The Start of Primal Dead...
Actually it did start during the late spring, but anyways this show is notable for parts included in Anthem of the Sun -- the 2nd vocal rap from Pigpen during Caution as well as the final Alligator chorus before Caution.

The whole show rips starting with the Viola Lee Blues...then it all goes uphill ending with the wild but short Feedback.

One of the best shows from '67.

Get it.

Reviewer: Grateful Steve - - June 4, 2004
Subject: No Neal Rap At This Show
The Neal Cassady rap, as the notes to this show indicate was not on 11/10/67. It was an acid test like rap probably given on 7/23/67 at the Straight Theatre with a Dead supplied background. An annotation of the rap is online at: http://www.pugzine.com/arch01.html . Neal was known to rap on many things at the same time which must have led to a lot of confused people. Those who could pick up on at least a few of his thoughts/jokes would certainly be laughing. An example is:

"Logical Positivism had a great increase at UCLA recently they got Alcindor but no water polo...what are we gonna...? you all are surrounded...I've never found who was...I played short short...outfield-no glove...you just need...I learned an illegal pitch-caught Satch Paige59 barehanded..." The Alcindor refers to Lou Alcindor, later known as Kareem Abdul Jabbar.


The highlights here are the jam in Viola Lee and Pigpen's Good Morning Little School Girl. On It Hurts Me Too listen to that blues guitar that Jerry plays and of course a classic performance by Pigpen.

The Grateful Dead were certainly making music unlike any other group in 1967.

Sound is good for '67.
