Tech NoteHoward Wales and Friends (with Jerry Garcia) Symphony Hall, Boston, MA 1/26/72 - 2 cds -------------------- From Dick Hitche analog collection. Dick is a friend of Dan's who we have gotten a number of Quicksilver cd's from. He has an amazing collection of other bands and some very tasty and rare dead. I believe that he recorded this show from FM to Reel to Reel and then to stand alone cd. He doesn't have a computer so he sent me the cds. I extracted using EAC and then converted to shn. FMSBD>RR>CD>EAC>SHN The material of this show is I quess mainly Howard Wales tunes, not the normal Jerry songs that evolved later with M Saunders. The tracks do not quite match all of the differtent songs listed for the show, but some nice long "funky" jams. This I believe is one of the earliest Jerry Shows on tape and the sound quality is good. Hope you enjoy. -------------------------------------------- 01/26/72 Symphony Hall, Boston, MA top cd1 Set One: (21 songs) Southside Strut > Up From The Desert > One AM Approach > Come On Baby > Jam Outer Space Regions > Carry Me Back > Bass Solo > Get Funky Brother > A Trip To What Next > Would You Leave Me > Wale's Boogie cd2 Get Down Mama (1) > DC 502 (1) > Drums (1) > DC 502 (1) Sweet Little Angel > Sweet Cocaine > Jam > Fighting For Madge > Don't Judge A Book (2) Encore: Gypsy Woman Comments: (1) without Garcia.

Comment(1)= w/ out Jerry Garcia. Also many copies don't contain the encore. The Band is-Jerry Garcia, Howard Wales, Jim Vincent, Jerry Love & Roger Troy(aka Jellyroll)

This setlist comes from Deadbase and recordings have circulated with it for 20+ years. Some comments on the actual song titles below. Given the historical use of this setlist, no changes to the the circulating tracklist have been made above. Yet . . . .


t01 - Southside Strut ->
t02 - Up From The Desert -> wrong title: it's not "Up From the Desert" (from Hooterroll), it's some other untitled song.
t03 - One A.M. Approach -> Come on Baby -> Jam -> Outer Space Regions -> "One AM Approach" is the slow mellow song with Wales on electric piano (from Hooteroll). Dunno what's up with "Come On Baby/Jam/Outer Space Regions." imho this should just be labeled One AM Approach ->
t04 - Carry Me Back -> dunno where this title comes from, sounds like it's from the lyrics that Jellyroll sings, which I think are half-improvised
t05 - Jellyroll's Jam -> aka bass solo
t06 - Get Funky Brother -> title? Jellyroll yells "get funky, drummer!" but I don't know what the song is.
t07 - A Trip To What Next -> wrong title: "A Trip to What Next" is a tune on the Hooterroll LP (but not on the CD reissue for some reason), but that's not what this is: it's an organ solo by Wales and sounds fully improvised.
t08 - Would You Leave Me -> wrong title: this is called "My Blues" which Wales released as a 45. It's on youtube.
t09 - Wale's Boogie dunno about the title, but it will do.
t10 - band intros by Garcia
t11 - Get Down Mama *
t12 - DC 502 -> * wrong title: this is called "Huxley's Howl" which is another Wales 45 release (not on Hooterroll), also on youtube.
t13 - Drums ->
t14 - DC 502 * basically just the end of the Huxley's Howl jam, although they don't play the melody again
t15 - Sweet Little Angel ->
t16 - Sweet Cocaine ->
t17 - Let It Shine fwiw, t15-17 are all basically the same song: Jellyroll is singing bits and pieces of different blues songs over the same basic tune.
t18 - Fighting for Madge -> "Fighting for Madge" is a cut from Fleetwood Mac's Then Play On album, and it sounds similar to this, but it's loose enough that I don't think this is actually a "cover." I think the resemblance is coincidental. The track starts pretty loose, then starts to sound like the actual tune "DC 502" from Hooterroll, though it's all pretty jammy.
t19 - Hey Bo Diddley -> t19-20 are the same jam as t18: Jellyroll starts singing bits of Bo Diddley lyrics over the groove.
t20 - You Can't Judge a Book by its Cover
t21 - encore break
t22 - Gypsy Woman
