When Phil Lesh and Friendsclosed the Warfield (as we knew it) in May of 2008, and performed 8 Grateful Dead albums in their entirety, it was some of the sweetest shows I have ever seen. In fact my biggest disappointment that week was that they left out a few albums. I really wanted to hear Wake of The Flood, Blues for Allah,Terrapin Station, and Shakedown Street.
(OK, I admit it I wanted Shakedown Street – because I need to hear “France” live once before I die. And I will still have to wait on that one… I do hope they do it one day when Donna can sit in! )
Phil Lesh & Bob Weir will take the musical journey Furthur performing some of the Grateful Dead’s most beloved albums in their entirety, including a very special 40th Anniversary celebration of their classic recordings; Workingman’sDead and American Beauty.
When Phil and friends played Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty on Friday may 16th, 2008 it was so freaking beautiful and sweeter than honey. Listen to American Beauty from that night here.
Also included will be Aoxomoxoa, and Anthem of the Sun, both of which Phil included in May of 2008. And… yeah! We will get to hear a live Blues for Allah and Terrapin Station. I am excited, because that includes “Terrapin Flyer” and “At A Siding”, which as far as I know, only Ratdog has performed live.
Get the full scoop at the Furthur Festival website. Schedules are posted, and other announcements, like the fact we will get to hear Furthur do a soundcheck set Friday night, suggestion of sitting in with the other bands and muscians (Hot Tuna, Jackie Greene, Mark Karan, Larry Campbell, Maiden Lane and more).
