The Golden Road for 7:30pm on Sep 8th, 2017

Tonight on the Golden Road we have a mixed bag. First off we are saying goodbye to Steely Dan’s Walter Becker, who passed away last weekend. We will remember Walter with a selection of tunes from the Steely Dan catalog. Rounding out the show are a couple songs by guitar wizard Henry Kaiser from his album Those Who Know History Are Doomed to Repeat It and then Pig Pen will step up to the microphone to close out the show with Alligator.

 

The Golden Road for 7:00pm on Sep 1st, 2017

This week the Golden Road takes us on a road trip to Holleder Memorial Stadium in Rochester, New York with Grateful Dead music recorded live September 1st, 1979. This an afternoon concert was billed as the Upstate Jam, and the lineup was the Greg Kihn Band, then the Good Rats (kerfuffle and all) and finally the Grateful Dead. It was a beautiful summer afternoon and that the Dead played a wonderful show! DJ Lee (and friends Jeff & Rob) were there too!

 

The Golden Road for 7:00pm on Aug 25th, 2017

DJ Lee and his family spent the last week in the high mountain desert of New Mexico, seeing the sights and visiting his brother Michael. So tonight the Golden Road takes us down the New Mexico and Southwest way with music from The New Riders of the Purple Sage, Bob Weir, Jerry Garcia, and of course the Grateful Dead.

The Golden Road for 7:00pm on Aug 11th, 2017

Tonight the Golden Road takes us back to July 6th, 1987 for a very hot Grateful Dead show at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena. On this night, the band, as Jerry Garcia quipped, “We ran into some of our friends, the Neville Brothers” and they shared the stage with the Neville’s for a jumping second set, as we will hear tonight. And by the way, the Dead released their chart topping album In the Dark on this date as well. Did they play any songs from In the Dark that night? Of course not.
