On September 1, 1990, the Grateful Dead were scheduled to perform at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California but couldn't due to the recent death of keyboardist Brent Mydland less than two months earlier. Instead of canceling the show, Jerry decided the best solution was to have the Jerry Garcia Band step in and perform.
This show wasn't an homage to an old friend or a played-out patronizing tribute for the fans; it was about the music and the soul inside the band. The members of the JGB are its namesake on guitar and lead vocals, Melvin Seals on keyboards, John Kahn on bass, David Kemper on drums, and Gloria Jones and Jackie Labranch providing backing vocals.
Opening up the first song of set one was “How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You,” written by Lamont Dozier and Brian and Eddie Holland for the Motown label. The JGB plays it different than any of Motown's artists who have performed it, coming out with bluesy-essence, almost ragtimesque in spirit.
This gets the crowd involved, although since this is recorded right through the soundboard, you can barely hear the crowd at all, yet you can see it in the face of the band.
From that, they go into “Stop that Train” and for all of us natty-dreads we feel the roots of this one.
Written by Peter Tosh and preformed by Bob Marley & the Wailers on their debut album, “Catch a Fire,” Fumo's favorite, Jerry's voice is so different than Marley's or Tosh's as it catches the vibe and roots of tale being told. “Dear Prudence” taken from “The Beatles,”and then into Dylan's “I Shall Be Released. Each of these songs is not played as a cover, but as new sounds being experimented on by a highly talented team of professionals. The first set ends with the Hunter/Garcia original, “Deal,” which captures the glory of the old west
The second set is filled with just as much energy and emotion. too. “I Second That Emotion” by Smokey Robinson. Again, the JGB redefines the song from a Motown pop icon into a folksy, almost-southern-rock tempo that could make white men jump. Think” by Jimmy McCracklin, a blues song if there ever was one, is played that way with emotion flowing out of every pore of Jerry's body, but the killer-diller of the show, the song that lets him, his guitar, and the band unleash their souls is the Gillespe/Smith tune, “That Lucky Old Sun.”
It has been performed through the years by many of the greats: Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Dean Martin, and Bing Crosby, but according to biographer Blair Jackson in the “Interview” section, Ray Charles' version was Jerry's favorite interpretation and that is the style he emulates. If he were singing one for his old friend Brent, then here it is. As always, the JGB leaves on a positive note with another Dylan tune; “Tangled Up In Blue” is played in that old “rhythm and Dead” style.
The music here is on fire from beginning to end, being rooted in folk, gospel and R&B. With the genius of Jerry at the helm, the experimentation keeps on truckin' even into the ‘90s. The camera work is your basic concert footage. The interviews are too short and don't really cover the event as it happened, but it is good to hear from the band members. Robert Hunter also gives an interview, again way to short, but he is a busy man.
All in all, this is a great DVD, be you a Deadhead, a Jerry freak, or someone who just likes to have live concerts to watch in your humble abode; Jerry Garcia Band Live At Shoreline is one of those shows. Jerry is all about the music and this performance shows you that.

Recently recommended to a fellow blogger looking for a waterproof HD video camera the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1—perfect for recording your vacations into the wilderness or, in the words of Sebastian the crab from The Little Mermaid, “under da sea.”
Blog post: “I am in a really big predicament right now just before the holidays. I want a camcorder for Youtube reviews and camping trips but can’t seem to find the best one. My choices are the Flip Ultra HD 120minute model, the Kodak Zi8 or Zi6, Sony Webbie HD, or the Flip Mino HD. I like the Ultra because of the AA battery option but like the Zi8 for the 1080p and SD card storage. I am going backpacking next summer so I need a waterproof camera to and I was thinking of getting a camera that shoots HD instead of buying 2 devices so that could be an option too.”
Comment: Did some research around waterproof HD camcorders: found the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1. It’s waterproof, shockproof and dustproof—rugged, I say. Shoots in 720p and takes 12MP stills. Here’s the link at Amazon; it’s reviewed very well.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1, December 21, 2009
By Ken2 (FL) - See all my reviews
Its only waterproof to 10ft, but thats all I need. Its small enough to fit in your pocket fairly easily. The features and menus are well thought out and easy to use. Video quality is very good. As of now, this is the only waterproof pocket size camera with HD video, and Zoom during video. It works well and the quality is great. The picture quality is good as well. Nice sharp pictures. I haven't dropped it yet to check the “shock proof” part of it, but hopefully that goes well. I'm definitely happy with the purchase.
I’ve been looking at the pocket-sized HD camcorder offerings myself, and have taken a look at all you’ve mentioned. Seemed to me that the Kodak Zi8 had the best feature set for the money. Key differentiator for me is that the Zi8 is the only one with an input for an external mic (Amazon page).
Hope this helped! Let me know what you decide. Saw the Zi8 at Target the other day for $179.99; thinking of going back and buying it.
The Panasonic AG HVX200 was released in December 2005 in NTSC format and April 2006 in Pal. It is a high definition video camera with a fixed lens. It records HD video on solid state P2 cards or DV video on MiniDV tapes.

The Panasonic AG HVX200 has many upgraded and additional features making it a high end camcorder for the more professional video makers. The Panasonic AG HVX200 offers an extensive menu which new users may find a little daunting, the more professional on the other hand will be amazed at what this camcorder has to offer.

Panasonic announced the availability of the company’s first 64 GB and 48 GB SDXC Memory Cards. The new SDXC Memory Cards, the RP-SDW64GG1K (64 GB) and RP-SDW48GG1K (48 GB) are Panasonic’s largest-sized Gold cards with Class 10 speed specification.
Featuring new advanced Super Intelligent Controller helps to improve the reliability of the card and extend its lifetime. The new 64 GB and 48 GB SDXC Memory Cards will be globally introduced in February 2010.
SDXC is the next generation SD Memory Card, a new standard for storing data more than 32 GB and up to 2 terabytes. The Panasonic 64 GB SDXC Memory Card features a massive 64 GB of capacity, making it ideal for recording AVCHD High Definition video, high-resolution, or even RAW still photos.
When used with Panasonic’s camcorders, such as the Panasonic HDC-TM10, the 64 GB SDXC Memory Card can record up to 8 hours and 30 minutes of video, while recording in the highest video quality in HA mode. Or when recording in 1920 x 1080i in HE mode, the SDXC Memory Card can hold approximately 27 hours and 30 minutes of video.
The 48 GB SDXC Memory Card will have nearly the same capacity as a dual-layer Blu-ray Disc, and can hold 6 hours and 20 minutes of HD video content recorded in HA mode and 20 hours and 20 minutes when recorded in HE mode.
With the Class 10 speed specification and maximum data transfer speed of up to 22MB/s, the new Panasonic SDXC Memory Cards allows users to enjoy superb performance when using with an HD camcorder or a digital interchangeable lens camera, such as the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GF1, for high-speed burst shooting when taking still photos.
The 64 GB and 48 GB SDXC Memory Cards, along with other Panasonic GOLD line Memory Cards, provide longer lifetime, thanks to the adoption of Panasonic’s newly-developed Super Intelligent Controller, which evolves the current Super Intelligent Controller used in the Silver line Memory Cards.
With the new Super Intelligent Controller, flash memories are automatically refreshed with error corrections, thus preventing data damages and providing longer lifetime.
The new SDXC Memory Cards include a new technology designed to minimize accidental corruption caused by a power interruption, such as the Memory Card being removed while data is being transferred. Panasonic’s SDXC Memory Card robustness is reliable even under severe temperature condition from -25°C to 85°C.
