They say this is Phil's favorite show. It certainly is exemplary. It sounds like Eric had a copy of the FM broadcast of the second set; this source is a soundboard that came into circulation in 1996. The three discs are Sears' Better, Sear's Best, and Sear's WOW in quality. To think the boys got into a pushing match because the thought they'd screwed this one up!
Set 1 starts with a cut Morning Dew and then a fun Schoolgirl. My favorite in the set is the Dark Star > China Cat > Eleven > Lovelight, shorter and somehow more precious and angular than the longer, sinuous, more stylized versions we're accustomed to from 1969.
Set 2 starts with a short and sweet Crypical > Other One > Cryptical that flows into New Potato Caboose and Born Cross-Eyed. The singing in through here leaves a bit to be desired (especially in Born Cross-Eyed), but all this music is very well-jammed. Then things pick up :), and we get a monstrous Spanish Jam > Alligator > Caution > Feedback. Phil is in the driver seat at the beginning, which makes for a moody kind of militaristic Spanish Jam. Eric thinks that the "space" interlude in the Spanish Jam isn't on purpose so much as because Bobby had just completely lost the thread -- he claims Jerry's guitar expresses his frustration. I'm not sure I hear that, but I'm also not sure I don't. There's a tremendous amount of energy and exploration in the Alligator > Caution, Bobby's obviously whacked out and Jerry and Phil jam as well as they ever did. It's interesting to compare the quality of the jamming in the different parts of the song; in Alligator things kind of flow in one long ramble, whereas in Caution it seems more like a series of independent variations on the theme. The feedback at the end is one of the strangest I've heard, definitely worth checking out if you have any interest in that sort of thing.
==========
This project is a music adjunct to and a book review of Eric Wybenga's _Dead To The Core_. I'm going to seed a copy of all the music mentioned in the book except for the stuff that has been commercially released. You might want to pick up a copy of the book and read along with me while I'm seeding -- I think it'll be worth your while. Here are some of the many places you can find one:

| That part I don't know (sorry), it was up here and a bunch of other sites, but since I don't do bit torrent, I didn't keep track of things. If someone has a ftp server, i can upload it to you and you can torrent it. |

I'm sorry I couldn't torrent the upgrade. People tried to share it here a couple of times when it first came out, and the administrators took down the torrent every time. I'm trying to save them the trouble ;) You see, on 89676 the cut in the Alligator jam is patched with about a minute of music from the commercially released "Anthem of the Sun". That makes it impossible to upload it here.

For those of you who don't know, the Carousel Ballroom was a cooperative run by the Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, and the Jefferson Airplane. It was on the corner of Van Ness and Market Street, a few blocks down from the Warfield. It sounds like a pretty loose and wonderful scene from the books I've read about it. The compendium has a short bit about it: "As the Carousel, it was legendary for shows that pushed the limits of what was permitted and acceptable in a public dance hall, the Acid Test ethos living on in notorious gigs put on not only by the bands themselves, but also by the Diggers, the Hell's Angels, and a host of others." Sex and drugs and rock and roll as we only dreamed about it back in Kansas I guess.
Anyway, it shut down after only six months or so (it was not run in what you would call a business-like way), and Bill Graham immediately stepped in and started calling it the Fillmore West. |

This is a watershed show in many ways. First, the Carousel Ballroom, soon to be renamed the Fillmore West after being picked up by Bill Graham, became a second home to the band as they would play about 16 gigs there (probably more) through June 1968. Bill Graham, already a major factor in the live music scene, now became the band's primary promoter.
The Carousel was a cooperative venture between the Dead, the Airplane, and Quicksilver that was initially intended to be an alternative to what was scene as the "too commercial" shows that Graham was promoting at the original Fillmore Auditorium.
This was NOT the band's first show at the Carousel. The first known show was 1/17/68, a double bill with Quicksilver, but it is almost certain that there were earlier shows than that. Bobby evokes the "anti-Bill Graham approach during Alligator, when he screams out "Burn down the Fillmore, gas the Avalon!" followed by a demand that everyone get up and dance reminding the crowd "don't worry, it wont ruin ya".
The songs we take for granted were new and the major move from the traditional song structure into extended jamming was slowly evolving at this point. Phil's friend Tom Constanten (TC) was playing with the band, primarily with different types of keyboards, and his impact can clearly be heard on this recording.
As strange as sounds, Dark Star, China Cat, and The Eleven were all new songs in this period although the well-known "Live Dead" jams happened later in the year when "St. Stephen" entered into the rotation.
The "Spanish Jam" was also a fairly new introduction. The name comes for the the clear evocation of the Miles Davis track "Sketches of Spain". Again, at this time in the band's development, it was a unheard of for a band to to take these type of risks.
The second set from "The Other One" onward is owned by Phil. Interestingly, my favorite track of this show, "New Potato Caboose" would appear on the band's second album and all but vanish from the rotation by year's end.
The blast of feedback as "Caution" ended must have melted many minds that night and would continue to hold that slot through 1969.
Garcia's slow and emotional delivery of the opening verses of "That's it For The Other One" reflect the recent death of Neal Casady,who Jerry often identified as his hero during interviews around that period. Listen closely as Weir then substitutes "tripping through the lily fields" for the correct "skipping through the lily fields".
The soundboard of this show -- which, as Charlie points out, now circulates -- forms the bedrock that "Anthem of the Sun" was built upon together with the Shrine shows from the past November. The band began to ritually record all of their shows at this time. The first known AUD was also made at this show and there were some additional audience records throughout the year although the entire package -- a reel-to-reel, microphone, tape, and a power source was far to impractical to set up in the audience on a routine basis so there are only a handful of other audience recordings from 1968 and none that even the OCD crowd would really want to hear.

| i believe all the keyboard/organ work we hear is Pigpen...T.C. didn't join up until November. |
| SteveSw |
2008-06-15 09:11:29 |
| T.C. joined the band officially in November of 1968, but he played with them at gigs like this one prior to becoming an official member of the band. I think you can hear his playing most clearly in the first set. His playing and Pigpen's are not easily confused. |

| Jesus they are hammering through these tracks. That Morning Dew and Dark Star are FAST!!!!!!! Excited for the China Cat to go into the 11, and for Caboose, and for Alligator. Great demonstration of their 'primal' material so far. |

| This is MOST DEFINITLY PIGPEN on organ, not T.C., just from years of listening to the differences its easy to tell. Check out every other show in 68 before T.C. joined and the organ playing is all similar because it is Pigpen. There are no circulating recordings w/ T.C. on organ before he officially joined that I know of. Case in point, why is there no organ playing when Pig is playing the harmonica in Good Morning Little Schoolgirl? Also, T.C. played cryptical in a different style which in my opinion was not as good as pigpens at least in the 60's |
