    Friday, November 16, 8pm, 2007 UMass Fine Arts Center Concert Hall Unbroken Chain: The Grateful Dead in Music, Culture, and Memory As part of a public symposium, November 16-18, UMass Amherst American Beauty Project featuring Jim Lauderdale Ollabelle Catherine Russell, Larry Campbell Theresa Williams Conceived by David Spelman Producer and Artistic Director of the New York premier Program will be announced from the stage Unbroken Chain is presented by the UMass Amherst Graduate School, Department of History, Fine Arts Center, University Outreach AND University Reserach. Sponsored by The Valley Advocate, 93.9 The River, WGBY TV57 and JR Lyman Co. About the Program "The American Beauty Project" is a special tribute concert to the Grateful Dead's most important and best-loved albums, Working Man's Dead and American Beauty. In January 2007, an all-star lineup of musicians that Relix magazine called "a dream team of performers" gave the premier of this concert in front of an over-flowing crowd at the World Financial Center's Winter Garden in New York City. The New York Times' Jon Pareles wrote that the concert gave "New life to a Dead classic... and mirrored the eclecticism of the Dead," and a Variety review said that the event brought "a back- porch feel to the canyons of Gotham's financial district. The perf's real fire came courtesy of acts that like to tear open the original structures of the source material and reassemble the parts afresh - an approach well-suited to the honorees' legacy." Now, a select group of those performers, including Ollabelle, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Catherine Russell, and Jim Lauderdale are taking the show on the road.

Though he disavowed the role, Garcia was viewed by many as the leader or "spokesman" of the group. One of its founders, Garcia performed with the Grateful Dead for their entire thirty-year career (1965–1995). Garcia also founded and participated in a variety of side projects, including the Saunders-Garcia Band (with longtime friend Merl Saunders), the Jerry Garcia Band, Old and in the Way, the Garcia/Grisman acoustic duo, Legion of Mary, and the New Riders of the Purple Sage (which Garcia co-founded with John Dawson and David Nelson).

  • Plasma Science and Fusion Center
    Plasma Science and Fusion Center Overview MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC) is known internationally as a leading university research center for the study of plasma and fusion science and technology with research activities in five major areas: 1. The science of magnetically confined plasmas in the development of fusion energy, in particular the Alcator C-Mod tokamak project. 2. The basic physics of plasmas including magnetic reconnection experiments on the Versatile Toroidal Facility (VTF), plasma-surface interactions, development of novel high-temperature plasma diagnostics, and theoretical plasma physics and fusion science research. 3. The physics of high-energy-density plasmas, including the center’s activity on inertial confinement laser-plasma fusion interactions. 4. The physics of waves and beams (gyrotron and high gradient accelerator research, beam theory development, nonneutral plasmas, and coherent wave generation). 5. A broad program in fusion technology and engineering development that addresses problems in several areas (e.g., magnet systems, superconducting materials, and system studies of fusion reactors), as well as non-fusion-related technology development, mostly in the superconducting magnet area. Administratively, each of these areas constitutes a separate research division. In order of research area above, PSFC’s research divisions are the Alcator Project, Physics Research, High-Energy-Density Physics (HEDP), Waves and Beams, and Fusion Technology and Engineering. Similarly, MIT’s Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory (FBML) is internationally recognized for its advances in several areas of science and engineering involving high magnetic fields, including research in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The lab also is also active in NMR and MRI magnet development and in nanoscience condensed matter physics.

  • New Riders of the Purple Sage – Nrpsmusic.Com in the Summer Of
    New Riders of the Purple Sage – nrpsmusic.com In the summer of 1969, John Dawson was looking to showcase his songs while Jerry Garcia was looking to practice his brand new pedal steel guitar. The two played in coffeehouses and small clubs initially, and the music they made became the nucleus for a band—the New Riders of the Purple Sage. That same year, David Nelson, expert in both country and rock guitar, joined the group on electric lead guitar. Filling out the rhythm section in those early days were Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart and engineer Bob Matthews on bass, who was later replaced by Phil Lesh. In 1970, Dave Torbert took over on bass and the New Riders played every chance they got. Soon enough, smoky clubs all over the San Francisco bay area were filling up with whooping, foot-stomping crowds as their music got tighter and more dynamic. They began to tour extensively with the Dead, and in December of 1970, Spencer Dryden, who had previously showed his impeccable drumming style with the Jefferson Airplane, had stepped in on drums. One of the many gigs with the Dead included the Trans-Canadian Festival Express with Janis Joplin, The Band, and other American and Canadian artists like Ian and Sylvia, who had with them a brilliant, innovative pedal steel player named Buddy Cage. When Garcia's busy schedule made it increasingly difficult for him to play with the New Riders, the talented Cage was the perfect choice to fill the pedal steel spot. He moved from Toronto where he had been working in Anne Murray's band, to California in the fall of 1971 to join the New Riders.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
