Dead Show of the Month

DSOTM # 190 - 5/11/77

This month our podcast takes us all back to that glorious Spring of 1977.  There was nary a dull moment during that month, and our show tonight proves that.  It has a little bit of everything.  For half-time, "Bob" brought us all some Kingfish to enjoy.

DSOTM # 183 - 6/22/73

This months shows is yet another one of those "I cant believe it took us this long to play this for you" shows.  An amazing, long and wandering performance that will certainly entertain just about anyone who enjoys live music.  For half-time we take another listen to the Allman Brothers from NYE 1973... this time with some decent guests.  This, my friends, is a good one... enjoy the hell out of it!!!

Here is a really nice and quite intense show from upstate NY in 1977.... no, not "that one", this one is a little more spine tingling.  "Bob", our valiant co-host, discusses his experience a few days later.  All that and some great Herbie Hancock/Jaco Pastorious for halftime... what could be better?   Enjoy this one y'all.... and, Happy Homecoming!
