Grateful Dead Hour no. 27
Week of March 6, 1989
This week's program features live Grateful Dead music recorded
February 23-24, 1971 at the Capitol Theatre in Portchester, New York
- including, by popular demand, four numbers featuring Ron "Pigpen"
McKernan on the lead vocals, organ and harmonica.
Pigpen was a blues freak who hooked up with Bob Weir and Jerry
Garcia in the early Sixties to form Mother McCree's Uptown Jug
Champions, and it was his idea to get a rhythm section and some
electric instruments and turn it into a blues band that they called
the Warlocks and later the Grateful Dead. His health forced him to
quit performing with the band in 1972. I learned a lot about him when
I interviewed the other band members for the book
Playing in the
Band. In a 1984 interview - which was long before I
had any idea I'd be working on this radio program, so the recording
conditions were a little less than first-class - Mickey Hart talked
about Pigpen as a musician and as a friend.
"Little Red Rooster" has been a double slide-guitar showcase
for the Dead all through the U80s. HereUs a recording of it by the
guy who wrote it: Willie Dixon.
