Subject: [RS] Itunes? The Dead?

Before this list goes back into hibernation, I'd like to ask a not necessarily related to RS question, well 2 actually. I've been noticing that my radio station (http://www.wehm.com) plays an awful lot of Grateful Dead. I've held a grudge against them since I was a kid when my sister dragged me to one of their concerts. But now I'm interested in them again and I figured there must be a couple of deadheads on this list. I was wondering which album of theirs I should start with.  If anyone has any suggestions, you can email me off-list.
Also, for anyone familiar with itunes: I downloaded Antje Duvekot's new cd from there. I knew I wouldn't get the physical cd liner notes and all that but I thought I would get a link or something so I could see who sang on which song.  Needless to say I didn't and I'm pretty pissed about it. Is this something you just don't get from itunes? 
Thanks,
Janet

Subject: [RS] Before You Go...

I hope most people have found "Before You Go" on Signature's 2003's
"Wonderland" Christmas compilation.  If not, it's on iTunes:

http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?i=151539326&id=151539208&s=143441


For some reason, I find this one of RS's most beautiful songs.  I'm
surprised it never made it onto a regular album.  Anyway, today I was
googling the lyrics and came upon this website and possible interpretation
of the song.

http://fromthesalmon.com/ripples/friday-advent-lyrics-love/

I don't know where Richard is with his religion these days, but considering
that he once was in seminary, this could be a Biblically influenced song.
Or it could be about a boy and his dog.  You just never know.  <G>

*Ciao!*

If so, that'll be too bad.  I've kinda liked this recent spurt of activity.  Hopefully the new record will give us fodder to keep the discussion going.

Perhaps not, but it's something you can get from me!

Carol,
Thanks for this 'find'.  It makes me wonder (as I semi-patiently wait  
for the new release) if anyone else on this list knows of little gems  
of Richard's on different compilations.
I've got all his albums and the Cry3 album and an EP from the Courier  
recordings and a song called "I Am".
Does anyone know of any others?  Are we allowed to talk about trading  
concert recordings on this list? (I've never heard it come up as a  
topic)

Thanks again for the itunes link.

Peter

Peter,

If you look Richard up by artist on iTunes, you can come up with quite a few
compilations he is on -- most of them "Fast Folk".

*Ciao!*

...Carol

PS.  Does anyone know where did the song, "I Am" come from??  Is it a
Richard original???  Someone recently shared this song with me and I find it
beautiful and mind numbingly haunting.  Again, an obsure jewel of a song for
me......

Hi, Carol,

Richard wrote "I Am" as a response to 9/11.

Thanks for reminding me about "Before You Go." That is one of my favorite
songs, ever. So beautiful and haunting.

The EP from the Courier sessions is called The Sonora Sessions, and then 
there's the single for Spring, which has the album version of Spring, plus a 
single version without the ending Celtic music, as well as a full-band 
acoustic version of Confession, and a song called Shades Of Black, Shades Of 
Blue.

I've never heard anyone on here mention Jay Ansill's A Lost World.
It's a whole album of Robert Graves poems that Ansill has set to
music. Richard provides the lead vocal for several tracks (and
probably guitar, I'd imagine). Really lovely.

I agree, Carol"Before You Go" is one of my favorites as well. I was
always under the impression that it was supposed to be God speaking to
his son, but I've been wrong before. ;)

"I Am" is a Richard original that he wrote and recorded right after
9/11. It was originally sold right after 9/11 as a benefit for, umm,
either Thirteen or WNYC.
