Dead To The Core Project
Noteworthy Jams (A Collection)
This is a collection of noteworthy jams played by the Grateful
Dead. It is very closely based on a list put together by Eric Wybenga
and published in his book _Dead To The Core: An Almanac of the
Grateful Dead_. Several of Eric\'s selections have been released
commercially. In most cases there was an audience recording at hand
which I could use; in the case of 11/8/69, I substituted another Main
Ten (played exactly a year later, on 11/8/70).
I found that the jams sounded odd when presented by themselves, so
more often than not I\'ve included the music around the jams so they
are here in the original context. I tried to avoid including multiple
copies of the same non-jam song, and for the most part I was able to
do that. The upshot is, in addition to this being a very good
collection of jams, it\'s also a damn good survey of the songs that the
Grateful Dead jammed well over the years. It\'s also large: so it goes.
The track names are self-explanatory: they list the date of the
performance, the SHNID of the source, and shortened names of the songs
included in the track. I joined the original tracks with \"shntool
join\", and then I retracked and added simple fades using Wavelab. I
fixed up the resulting tracks using shntool, and then I compressed the
files using \"flac --best\". I used shntool version 3.0.2, flac version
1.1.3, and Wavelab version 6.
