today, rich & i hit the end of our enjoying the ride deadcast season with some deep head history. thanks to sociologist rebecca adams (& her receipts!) we can pinpoint wide use of “shakedown street” to describe the parking lot scene to summer ’89. dead.net/deadcast/enjoying-rid /1 #GratefulDead

It’s extremely funny to me that more than a decade later JRAD still only resembles the real thing for the five minutes after someone slams the “slow the fuck down” button, until 5 minutes later when the hamband timer goes off.

I submit for consideration two versions of Francis Bebey’s Haiti seperated by the span of a year:

1981: open.spotify.com/track/7HP7ny9

1982: open.spotify.com/track/5pCbxWM

The man sure could light up *those* parts of my brain

At a minimum, the Jerry Bands, both of the Kings (Albert + Freddy), pick one of Toussaint or Dorsey you consider the original then call the other a cover, Leon Russell are all good/great
