Episode Highlights
Grateful Dead – “Row Jimmy”
This near-perfect version of one of Hunter/Garcia’s most blissful compositions comes from the epic 8LP boxed set, June 10 1973, RFK Stadium, released by Rhino Records in 2023.
Peter Rowan – “Land of the Navajo”
Taken from Old & In The Way member Peter Rowan’s debut, self-titled, solo record from 1978, “Land of the Navajo” is a glorious mess of acoustic guitar and fiddle, with Rowan’s exquisite high register crooning us into ecstasy.
The Stooges – “TV Eye”
Iggy Pop would, no-doubt, be mortified to learn that he was featured on a radio show hosted by a Deadhead and surrounded by drum-circle-friendly trustafarians. Which is exactly why we’re highlighting it here.
Welcome to the club, Iggy. You jam hard!
Bill Orcutt — “Requiem In Dust”
Bill Orcutt is one of the most exciting living guitar players and “Requiem in Dust”, taken from his 2024 album How to Rescue Things demonstrates just why that is.
You may know him from ’90s noise rock unit Harry Pussy, from his new improv trio with Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) and Ethan Miller (Comets on Fire/Howlin’ Rain) or not at all. Whatever the case—you should!
