Furthur - 2014-01-20 - Quintana Roo, Mexico (SBD)

Furthur 2014 - Back To Back - #1:  Furthur, named after the psychedelic bus used by Ken Kesey and his Merry Pranksters in 1964, was the 3rd post Grateful Dead band,  following the Other Ones and the Dead, to feature multiple members of that group  In this case, Bob Weir and Phil Lesh teamed up to launch Furthur in 2009. The band toured from 2009 to 2014, with a host of supporting players and numerous guest sitting in along the way.  This soundboard recording captures the band in Mexico on January 20, 2014, 7 years ago today.  Download this one, then come back tomorrow, the next day and the day after that for the rest of this 4 part Back To Back set. 

Historical Notes - The Grateful Dead, of course, served as the house band in 1967 for Ken Kesey's Acid Tests, which were chronicled in Tom Wolfe's book, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. The bus, Furthur was driven by Neal Cassady, the inspiration for the character Dean Moriarty in Jack Kerouac's On the Road, who is referenced in the Grateful Dead tune The Other One in the line "Captain Neal at the wheel of the bus to Never Never Land".
