Grateful Dead ( Ken Kesey & Dr. Timothy Leary fans too ! ) - if you have yet to
see this one ... my-goodness are you in for a Treat !! This Rare &
Awesome ! DVD was released in 2006 - and it is truly a Grateful Dead time-capsule
in a box - a Pure-Treasure ! This is " The Tomorrow Show "
featuring Tom Snyder's " Electric Kool-Aid Talk Show ". Tom does
run ( or tries his best to run ) this Hilarious Show ! which features not only The
Grateful Dead ( Jerry Garcia - Bob Weir - Phil Lesh - Billy Kreutzman - Mickey Hart
& Brent Mydland ) - but also with Ken Kesey ! - and then Dr. Timothy
Leary ! It is hard to decide what is the best-part of this incredible 90
minute DVD, but ... I ( always being G.D. Live Music ! ' biased ' ) would probably have to say
this >>>>>
A Four ( 4 ) Song Acoustic Performance by The Grateful Dead ( Pro-Shot ! ) here
on 5/7/81 >>> which includes On The Road Again - Cassidy - Dire Wolf - & Deep
Elem Blues !!!! And, as it would probably go without stating ... the Mood of
the Gang is Very Up-Beat ! And Wow !! are they Musically ' tight ' - just Amazing !! Live stuff . . .
But get this - Tom Snyder tries to take control on a semi-serious &
informative interview with Garcia - Weir - Kreutzman & Hart - but Kesey is
included too for this interview - and he antagonizes this Gang of Pranksters to
just rule the roost and run this Show - basically turning it into a live comedy
stage bursting with laughter from all !!?!! I mean here Snyder is asking
Jerry why Bobby looks so much younger then him ! - and meanwhile Kesey is
explaining the Psychedelic Experience ! as a " Trade-Off " !!! Wow !?!?!
I think whomever decided to pull this one from the Tomorrow Show vault &
release it professionally deserves a Deadhead & Keseyland " Steal Your
Feather ! " Medal of Honor - because it is just sheer Grate!-ness ! It is a total " Must-Have " for all those who love The Grateful Dead their Historic-roots - and the
scene surrounding. Not to mention ... the Dead are just into their 6th Show
on the '81 Early-Summer Tour so their acoustic-chops are just nice & Tight !
on this performance. This performance actually occurred on 5/7/81 - and
was smack-dab in the ' middle ' of a smoking-hot ( & now Legendary ! ) 3-night
stand at the Nassau Colisuem in Uniondale, NY. In fact, the performance
the night before ( 5/6/1981 ) was officially enshrined as " Dick's Picks #13 " by
Dick Latvala way back in 1999 ! Also, as many know & all should - the
5/4/81 Philly Spectrum show was also a colossal-night of Grateful Dead as
well. In other words, you could argue that this particular interview
could have happened at no better of a time then it did. Buy this one Fans and I assure you that you likely will never want
to part with it ... ENJOY !!!!! And prepare to get your " laugh-on " too !!! Simply-Fabulous . . .
