Well, this was ill-advised, I now think to myself... and now you've got a big ol' buffet to keep going back to for as many trips as you'd like, and I don't know how many of you were expecting Jell-O as well as sushi after your fried green beans. But, whether you listen to it all in sequence or segments, I hope it's valuable to you!
Here's a few things you will hear about during the ride:
Contraptions used to make Pink Floyd songs like "One of These Days" happen and how they were calibrated The definition of scenery gorn and other tropes found in the film The Bear's emotional relationship with the Wall of Sound, which becomes everyone's relationship with it as well, because The Dead could not perform the same way on everyone else's rinky dink P.A. systems after experiencing the clarity they were used to Pink Floyd's year-long scheme to move from Capitol to CBS in America Hendrix blowing off the Dead on the night he promised to jam, and their low key "revenge" Antonioni's opinions on filmmaking in America vs Italy. What it was like to film Z.P. through the eyes of an American member of the crew who actually did admire his work Richard Wright not showing up very much, getting booted Jerry Garcia records his Zabriskie Point soundtrack music in much less time than he wanted to. And has his payment stolen by Mickey Hart's dad. Who also steals car parts and speakers from Bear Floyd does more regrouping, post-breakup with Roger. Roger gets cranky. Clapton gets a cheeseburger. Roger is still cranky today that the band he walked away from and then sued when they didn't die without him will not promote his albums on their social media The Grateful Dead play for the largest outdoor rock audience of all time in upstate New York. And perform long soundcheck concerts for free on top of that Pink Floyd's 1975 SoCal shows being ruined by LAPD for 4 days Phil Lesh drinks Canadian Whisky with mystery capsules in it and Jerry Garcia crawls around on the floor like a caterpillar who can't leave the room on his own Kurt Loder gives a mean-spirited review of a mean-spirited album.
