    Bob Marley & The Wailers - Kaya 35th Anniversary Edition (Deluxe Edition)

    Kaya continues what has become an unspoken tradition in the evolution of Bob Marley & the Wailers discography — blending western sounds and motifs with the icons and traditions from the very core of Jamaican society. In fact, the very word “kaya†is synonymous with marijuana in Rastafarian culture. Likewise, the album Kaya could be easily construed as an open love letter or musical paean to the lifestyle that Marley so eagerly embraced and promoted. Themes of commonality and unity pervade this release more so than previous albums. Likewise, the overt political stances that had become somewhat of a moniker for Marley and the Wailers are temporarily replaced by timeless compositions, such as the eternally optimistic “Easy Skanking†and “Is This Love.†Marley had not — as some proclaimed — gone soft, however. The light, at times practically giddy, rhythms on “Satisfy My Soul†contrast the darker brooding sonic and lyrical images on “Running Away.†The most pressings issues Marley deals with concern ever-increasing spiritual consciousness. Throughout Kaya, humble thanks is offered to, as well as guidance sought from, Jah — evidence that the spirituality that permeates the Wailers music is real and not lip service. Kaya could be considered the oasis before the political and personal eruptions that would inform and influence Marley and the Wailers next studio releases Survival and Uprising. - Lindsay Planer

    As a bonus, the Kaya: 35th Anniversary Deluxe Edition also includes the non-LP track “Smile Jamaica,†which was originally released as the B-side to “Satisfy My Soul†and was written for the people of Jamaica after the assassination attempt on Marley’s life at the Smile Jamaica unity concert in 1976. Disc two features the rare, unreleased audio recording of a sold out performance at Ahoy Hallen in Rotterdam, Netherlands on July 7, 1978. It had originally been planned to be released with the Babylon By Bus album but was never released.

    Page McConnell – Unsung Cities and Movies Never Made

    “Movies never made, well, at least not yet. A series of soundtracks, maybe… Can a soundtrack exist without a film? Okay, future soundtracks, soundtracks-in-waiting, potential scores searching for a script. In the meantime, hopefully the listener might develop their own plot lines and imagine a storyboard: Soul Etude, a perious piece; The Lemon Drop, a psychedelic coming of age film; Late Edition, a spaghetti-western; Candlestick, a murder-mystery (possibly an independent Canadian release); or even Arbor Day, a Lifetime original made-for-TV-movie. Sprinkled throughout are a few impressionistic interpretations of unsung cities; not to say these places have never been mentioned in song, but certainly not over sung. Please enjoy these soundtracks as they float through time, a sort of phatom foreshadowing of films that lay in waiting and cities that, after this release, might be a little less unsung.†– Page McConnell

    Grateful Dead - Europe ‘72: The Complete Recordings

    1972-05-25 (Thu)

    Strand Lyceum, London, UK

    The second set jam this night is unique both in terms of the tour and the greater Grateful Dead history, featuring three three Garcia-sung songs in a row: “Uncle John’s Band>Wharf Rat>Dark Star.†All three are top notch, and “Wharf Rat†was quite a rarity on this tour, so this is a nice treat.

    Grateful Dead - Europe ‘72: The Complete Recordings

    1972-05-26 (Fri)

    Strand Lyceum, London, UK

    The last night. As much the band could be forgiven for being exhausted and ready to go home, they brought their A-game and played what many consider to be one of the top two or three shows on the tour. A 19 song first set (!) ends with the usual second set closer “Not Fade Away>GDTRFB>Not Fade Away,†and the set also included a 17 minute “Playing In The Band,†the show at which “Playing†became the 17-25 minute jam vehicle it would be for the rest of 1972 through 1974. The second, set, though, is so good that it was immortalized on Side 5 and Side 6 of the Europe ‘72 album. What that album is missing from this jam, though, is a terrific “Other One†around the “Morning Dew,†and the finest (and totally appropriate) “Sing Me Back Home†of the tour.

    Damn, listening to this just proves that Blade is THE MAN!!!! I could never tire listening and watching him do what he is able to do with the drums.

    Just take a listen/view at the few vids up from the mind-boggling performances from downstairs at the Great Hall last year (so happy i got in)

    The Greyboy Allstars - Inland Emperor

    Inland Emperor features original band members Karl Denson (horns and vocals),Robert Walter (keyboards), Elgin Park (aka Michael Andrews, guitars and vocals) and Chris Stillwell (bass), along with Aaron Redfield (drums), who has played with the group in recent years, and a guest appearance by John Bigham, of Soul Of John Black, on “Bitch Inside Me.†All contributed to the songwriting. They recorded and produced the album at Elgin Park’s studio in Glendale, CA, and Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer Mickey Petralia (Beck, Peaches, Eels, Flight of the Conchords) mixed the tracks—efficient (on average, four-minute) tunes, rather than long-form platforms for soloing.

  8. I was there last night and it was fanfreakingtastic as usual :) Sat 5ft in front of Breit as he amazed the crowd with the Sis Euclid. Love the Moonshine Cafe for these guys. They recorded the show too for Moonshine Records. No idea of a release or where.

    Looking forward to the next gig out here as they seem to be happening on a semi-regular basis.

  9. Are they being held back to try and get people to "panic" and buy up the cheap seats, with blocks of good seats to be released at a later date?

    That's what I think the deal is.

    They hate it when they can't sell seats, but the lawns are full since most people don't want to pay a premium (not as big a jump in price for Phish though).

    Still, it will be fun times no matter where you are at the show. Unless i'm in the Pit or 100s there, i'd almost rather be on the lawn.

  10. So as a pre sale they aren't sold out of the pavilion seats? All I get on ticketmaster is lawns.

    I didn't think this would sell out. I planned on grabbing a ticket for $20 the day of the show. I'm only gunning for lawns as it is.

    It's not sold out and I doubt it will. Presales are simply specific allotments in specific sections that are sold ahead of time. SO, if Amex presale is sold out, the rest of the venue (except for other groups of presales) is still for sale on the gen pub date.
