a pair of 11-24's
I figure if I do one of these about every week or so, I'll have to start repeating them in about 22 years.

"Sugaree" -- 11/24/78
Capitol Theater, Passaic, New Jersey
"The famous "Deadheads Only" show from the Capitol Theater in Passaic, NJ on 11/24/78. Right after this show, Jerry is admitted to the hospital with viral pneumonia, bronchitis and fever causing several shows afterwards to be cancelled. Like a trooper, Jerry smiles and trucks on despite being sick. A super-hot version of this Dead classic features shaky vocals from Garcia because of his illness but incredibly hot playing. Enjoy!"

Hi Zoooma. I remeber first getting this tape as a "recordist's choice, best of" the FM/King Biscuit Flower Hour broadcast. Sugaree was the only highlight I had on that first copy, but the entire show is well worth seeking out. While it is not the 11/20 giant, it certainly will scratch that '78 itch. Adam
Adam! Hey now! I think I still have my tapes of this (11-24-78 Passaic.) It was one of the first shows I ever owned and later on I had a friend spin me an analog copy straight from DAT -- so crispy and I loved hooking people up with a DSBD-2 copy. I wanted to post it up yesterday, but not from my tapes... digital mp3 files! Maybe I will today but I might have something else in mind... I just don't know, I've got such a wide range of stuff lined up, what's next beats me! There's just TOO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM!!!
Good times, good times. lol
I don't know which I enjoyed more, the 2 crows (I LOVE black birds) or the 2 sickys doing magic (refering to Jerry & Donna) Now see the entire mystery is unveiled unto me... Donna had Bronchitis & Pnumonia, her entire tenure w/ The Dead, that's why she sang so off. And, Jerry well, Jerry was & IS Jerry. Now, this footage, is it from an unreleased film? Hu?
Hey Timmy! That 11-24-78 Passaic show is a good one, with Hamza el Din joining Mickey and Billy and it's just really good despite the eternally pneumonia-ed Donna. Interesting you solved the mystery... now we all know!
As far as footage goes, it was filmed for "archival" purposes. What exactly they had in mind, I have no idea. I do believe it circulates but not far and wide and there might only be 3 songs on Youtube. Well, the whole thing could be there but only three songs labeled with 11-24-78.
I might have a way to get into your hands someday but not right now.
And hey, I'm glad ya dug the Merrie Melodies cartoon! I've seen hundreds of Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies but never Two Crows From Tacos. It's so funny!!!
Jerry Garcia is just like McCain's dream of being president, DEAD!
Nooooooooooooooooooo! Please say you're joking. I don't believe you. This can't be true. Jerry's not alive anymore? McCain's not president? Noooooooooooooo. :(
Well, thanks for coming around to break this news to me.
