Summary

More '71 goodness this week as we get to dive into the second set of the Dead's performance on 8/26/71 at Gaelic Park in the Bronx, New York, New York. This set has plenty to keep your interest including Weir singing 'I wish I was a headlight..." in I Know You Rider, a smokin' hot Other One, a fine Uncle John's Band, and THEN we get to the conclusion.. a rockin' Saint Stephen->NFA->GDTRFB->NFA.. the Dead would play only one more St. Stephen in 1971 then put it away till 1976.. Pigpen is here too of course, and we have a chance to enjoy him on a great 'Next Time You See Me'... The Johnny B. Goode encore is always a mark of a show the boys had fun performing!

0:00.0	Hello and welcome the Dead Pod for the week of September the 20th 2013.
0:03.7	This is a professor.
0:04.7	I'm so glad you could tune in this week.
0:06.4	We got a great second set coming up from Grateful Dead's performance back on August 26,
0:11.5	1971 at the Gaelic Park in the Bronx, New York City, New York.
0:16.0	If you caught the first set last week, you know this is Cracklin full of energy,
0:20.0	a really nice performance by the boys and sort of classic 71 sound. The second
0:25.4	set starts out with me and my uncle then a nice China rider. Check out the
0:29.8	unusual placement of the lyrics on I know you rider especially Weir's
0:36.0	contribution where he sings about being that headlight on the northbound train
0:40.5	that's usually Jerry's line then we we get a nice deal, Cumberland Blues,
0:45.0	trucking with a nice instrumental break of sorts at the end of it. In the drums, the other one,
0:50.0	there's some great fill bombs. Then a pig comes out for another next time you see me
0:54.6	and wonderful version.
0:56.4	A great version of me and Bobby McGee
0:57.9	follows a very nice Uncle John's band,
1:00.9	follows that, and then a St Stephen into not fade away into going
1:04.4	down the road feeling bad back in and not fade away. This would be the second to
1:08.8	last Saint Stephen they would play in 71 they'd play one more and then they wouldn't bring it out again until
1:14.1	1976.
1:16.3	The encore, Johnny Be Good, always a classic, a mark of a great show where they had a lot of fun.
1:21.8	So hope you enjoy this one as much as I do. It's a lot of fun to hear and appreciate the suggestion from one of my great listeners for this show because I think it's a great contribution.
