Well Fall has officially arrived, and this season inevitably
brings to my mind the fond memories of one of the greatest
later-era Grateful Dead runs - Madison Square Garden in the Fall of
1990. When the band arrived in New York the jury was still out on
their future following the passing of Brent Mydland. By the time
they left after these shows, they had a new member, and any
questions were answered as to their desire and capability to keep
producing great music.
The show I'm featuring the next two weeks, from September 18th,
1990 is not the most famous of the run, but it is a very fine and
enjoyable show. In this first set I have to point out the
magnificant 'To Lay Me Down->Promised Land' closer...
Enjoy and may the fall treat you gently, my friends.
