Comments:
EC & Gerry Garcia live at Sweetwater, Mill Valley, California, 29-Apr-89.
The performance goes from a solo acoustic set to a wind-up full band at
the end, with the band comprised at various times of Nick Lowe, Jerry
Scheff, James Burton, Austin Delone, Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Scott
Matthews, Sammy Hagar & Pete Sears.
Quality:
Good to very good. A little wobbly on the high end, either a
heavily duped soundboard or very good audience recording. My ears
adjusted quickly to the sound quality. The show strikes me as
particularly bland, especially as more band members join in. It
turns more and more into the jam session it is (and I don't mean
that in a good way!), and after a while EC isn't even running the
mic as various unknown voices take over the vocals and stage
patter. Good between song chat from EC, particularly during "God's
Comic". "CC Rider" couldn't sound more lifeless. However, if you
like the Grateful Dead kind of airy shuffle then this may appeal
more to you than it did me. Bruce White {brucew8940@aol.com}
I love this disc, EC is funny, chatty & charming. Has a feeling
of trotting out old favourites & trying out new material in front
of a friendly, but discerning crowd. The last 2 tracks are
pointless jams, but the acoustic part is cool & loose-limbed
(great version of "Radio Sweetheart") - Eddie Gorodetsky

A little tape hiss during the 10 acoustic numbers. Maybe not
essential, but get it for the solo tracks - Dean Martucci
