Jerry Garcia Band Calderone - 2 29 1980 Late - New Version

Hi All -

Jerry Garcia Band Calderone Concert Hall 2 29 1980 Late Show with Robert Hunter

I recorded this live off-air on behalf of WLIR 92.7 FM in Hempstead, NY the night of the actual broadcast. I didn’t have a ticket to this one

I used a Nakamichi NR1 Cassette Tape recorder. The first commercially available high-end cassette deck with a remote control (that had a wire). With a powered stereo FM Antenna, and 100 a Lafayette FM Quad receiver. The WLIR broadcast signal was in Hempstead NY and I lived in Seaford NY.  Less then 10 miles away.

I digitized my master in 2003 and was told to hold onto it, there are some Pre-FM versions out. Well, I still haven’t found a better version and just re-digitized my cassette master today, and made a slide show with my personal memorabilia and a couple of photographs. One of which was shot by Robert Minkin, the legendary Grateful Dead / Jerry Garcia Band photographer of my generation. The tape flip is during “Harder They Come”

Thank you, Bluelight. So cool. Thanks for all these links. 

Even though Kahn's minimalist bass solos bewilder me, I'll enjoy this today. 

 

I sat 3rd row at this show. 

Awesome, always loved this show.  Still have the old Maxell XL II 90.

Sounds great part 4 got pulled 

I pulled all the parts and just re-edited the show back together & just re-published it, here the new link. It's now one continuous, seamless show / video - at 1:16:53 time

Thanks folks!

How sweet it is to be loved by you!!

 

nice move on the continuous sound, that's preferable in this house. :) good work, bluelight, really sounds great coming out of the kefs. 

 

yes

Thanks a lot. It put so much time into the audio at that point, no sense it not trying at it one more time.

My one of my favorite Garcia band shows (buttery like gooeyness) and the definitive Promontory Rider.
