Let s see... I
warn you that I run the risk of getting a little emotional over this
one, this
Very-Hot Run All I can say is I hope that you were able to catch a
Show or Shows on this Absolutely-Historic 93 Cal Expo run. I was
so fortunate to not
only warm up at the Shoreline run prior, but also catch all-three of
these Incredible Nights of Historic Live Grateful Dead Two thoughts
here -- 1st thoughts : Many
critical fans are less-fond of 90 s post-Brent Dead and obviously
there are
some good reasons for feeling that way - especially from the
consistency
standpoint, and at times the apparent lack of energy even the
achievement
of a grippy musical tone. And then the 2nd thought : During this May
1993 Cal Expo
Shows there was a very-very special brew stirred up for these
California Rex
Foundation Shows, as follows : A song-by-song Jerry Garcia
Guitar-Clinic
When Phil s On The Band s On When Things Get Weir d what many
Deadhead s
consider the Band s last great , and triumphant stand I don t
personally feel
that way i.e. Autzen 93/ 94, Oakland Feb. 94 Chinese New Year of the
Dog
run , and I m sure a few big others -- however, if you were there for
this
glorious May 93 run at Expo - I can see exactly why you feel that way, I
completely
understand. An absolutely Perfect atmosphere : California Sunshine, a
Rex
Benefit occasion, the Band clearly feeling the great vibes throughout,
all in
probably the last small and most intimate outdoor venue the Grateful
Dead were
still able to play in this 90 s era due to crowd sizes, associated
problems, and etc.. You ve gotta love the old Cal Expo, just
gotta... But here s the scoop, and who will ever know why exactly this
happened
except for each of the Boys, naturally - I d assume. : Jerry Garcia
was simply ready to go
all-throughout this whole run - Big-Time He comes out of gates, guns
Rosebud
blazing Phil immediately follows suit as lead bass guitarist --
then Bob
Weir at his best looking like he d been anxiously waiting for this
moment . Garcia s
fretboard/picking attack tone is aggressive, vicious
pristine all
throughout the power-moments in this run, and the ballads are heartfelt,
sweet
played with excellence. Picasso Moon gt Fire on the
Mountain? I mean look out below in the Phil Zone And of course
last but not least, one of the most
creative, improvisational crystal-clean transitions ever - of
all-time ... Cassidy gt
Uncle John s Band gt Cassidy I mean I truly challenge the fans of
60 s, 70 s
80 s Dead, to give this mid-90 s Good Ol Grateful Dead a try No
guarantees naturally, but I think you ll be very pleasantly surprised.
Some actually speak of the 5/26 Show as being the true last great
Hurrah for the Grateful Dead, and me - myself
-- well, I feel the entire 5/27/93 Show was one of the Best Shows I ever
saw. Right up there on the same level as some of the scorching-hot
nights with Brent
in the late 80 s/early 90 s. I bet that this is the latest release the
Grateful
Dead will ever professional re-master release for the loyal fans,
and there are
some real reasons why they picked this one -- it s all here in the
music. Definitely,
definitely, enjoy this one... Expo 93
