"Put on the Dead and Spread" was taken from J.R. Young's piece in the same record review section of Rolling Stone (February 7, 1970)--as seen above Baron Wolman's Jerry Garcia photo. And there's Lenny Kaye's review towards the bottom left...

The infamous "Put on the Dead and Spread" ad appears in Good Times (San Francisco), February 13, 1970. A pull quote from Lenny Kaye's review in Rolling Stone appears in the ad, but Kaye didn't write the "Put on the Dead and Spread" part... Grateful Dead Live/Dead [1]

Goofin' wit Technology...We've come so far since then!

"The coroner said it was on Sunday
but I don't believe it's true /
The 15th day of May
wasn't odd enough for you /
I prefer to believe you left us
on a day with a little more teeth /
I prefer to believe that you checked out
on Friday the 13th, yeah Friday the 13th..."

RIP Chad Ferguson, drummer
