Sir Douglas Quintet, 13th Floor Elevators, The New Peanut Butter
Sandwich. Jerry Garcia’s Middle Finger blogged: Having just posted
about Garcia's October 1966 sit-in with Big Brother and the Holding
Company, I'll follow on with what is even more interesting-sounding
(though it apparently didn't come off that well).
Mojo Navigator R&R News no. 9 (October 17, 1966) gives a brief account
of the evening, which apparently included a configuration ("One Night
Only!", I assume) called The New Peanut Butter Sandwich, composed of the
following (instruments are mostly presumed):
Ron "Pigpen" McKernan (GD): ?organ?
Jerry Garcia (GD): guitar;
David Getz (BBHC): drums;
David Freiberg (QMS): bass;
?? (Sir Douglas Quintet): rhythm guitar;
Gary Duncan (QMS): guitar;
John Cipollina (QMS): guitar;
?? ("negro blues singer"): ??.
The only other detail is that "They did a very long and boring
pseudo-Butterfield blues instrumental." Not clear what the blues singer
was doing sitting in on an instrumental, but anyway ... sounds
interesting!
This may have happened on October 15 or October 16. |
