Weedeater 'Goliathan'; some of the most spitty, fuzzed-out bass ever with vocals to match-Dixie's vocal chords must be SO thrashed...and Sol Invictus', the new Faith No More album; so happy they're producing new music, such a good band...

It was mentioned in another thread about recording with Alembic, the band Sea Level.
I dusted off the old album and I am introducing their music to my 27 yo son.
No complaints so far.
As for me - I'm loving it!

OK, OK, I'm not listening to it now (unfortunately!), but I heard a phenomenal version of That's It for the Other One on Today In Grateful Dead history (Sirius XM) yesterday morning. It was from a rare show in June 1970 in Oahu, Hawaii. I'm usually not much into drum solos, but I thought the solo in that version was excellent and unique. At one point, you could hear Kreutzmann adding some vocalization of beats! Of course, I wanted to hear the moment when Phil blasts in with his bass intro, but the drum solo kept going. Alas, I had to go into work before it got to that point in the song! I figured I would find it on archive.org later, but it's not on there!
 
Has anyone heard this before? Great stuff!

It looks like there were three shows in Oahu in June, 1970; the 10th, 12th, and 13th.  That's It for the Other One is not listed on the 13th.  I didn't see a set list for the other two.  The 10th, apparently at Diamond Head Crater, isn't even listed in some show lists, so this might not be it.  But here's what I found on the 12th:
 
6/12/70 Oahu - Not in circulation. Lemieux has played The Other One on the Taper's Section a couple times.
 
So I'm guessing that's what you heard.

Yes, that's the one! Listening to 3-1-70 right now. Lemieux said he would play some of the show from the 13th soon.

These are some of the finest musicians around that play the true Appalachian string band music. This sound is very much what my group New River Bound is influenced/inspired by... though the guitar is doing the heavy lifting here, try and imagine what a bassline underneath that groove would sound like, and that's what we're shooting for.

I am thinking that a coffee house cover version of this tune might work  well for this tune in the Berkeley /Oakland California Coffee house Scene . I Like this guys bass playing in the visceral scene of perception  ,

I am  following and listening to the entire Soundcloud selections of Michael Manring ;  He is always so amazing to hear live and on recordings!  I went to one of his clinics in the early 1990's at Gelb Music and  I have been a  fan ever since.

Greg; that was nice.  I see that those folks are all from Asheville; maybe I'll run across them sometime.

As I write this I'm listening to The Pizza Tapes with Jerry Garcia, David Grisman, and Tony Rice at a speed of 591 mph at an altitude of 36,695 feet on my Pono with noise canceling Audio-Technica headphones.  Technology can be cool!
