Comment: Rex Benefit, FM Broadcast KPFA Berkeley. Quick level change at beginning of
Shakedown.
Notes: This was a great show for me opening with a scorching Shakedown Street.
From the first few minutes of the show I knew it was going to be a good Phil
show, as the Greeks usually were. The Morning Dew has a dangerous Phil note. Please
use with care!
I remember having a tough time getting set up the first night as I did not have
the real estate I wanted. After some bartering, nudgeing and kanoodling,
I was able to set one mic stand on the isle (which runs exactly through the middle
of the Greek) and clamped onto a friends stand about 13' to 14' down the row. Believe
it or not (oh that was the third day...) I would use a white piece of rope (capsule
to capsule) to try and judge if the mics were "close" to being on-axis to the speaker
arrays. The mics were essentially directly behind Dan Healy's mixing console.
From past experience I knew Dan would ride his right main fader to compensate for being
on the left hand side of the isle. Standing behind him was clearly the center.
I also intentionally chose the second row behind the soundboard due to the bands'
guests who often were chatty at the most inapropriate times!
There was nothing like a Greek Show. For anyone who saw the Dead at the Greek and for anyone
who wishes they had, this ones for you. Turn back the clock to a simpler time by dropping
disc one into your player and hearing a very good representation of what it sounded like at
the Greek this particular Friday night.
