After several years of relentless touring, Huey Lewis and the News took some time off from live shows in 1989 with one notable exception. In May of 1989, promoter Bill Graham presented a series of benefit concerts, called "In Concert Against AIDS at multiple venues across the Bay Area. The goal was to to raise awareness about the deadly disease, while also raising funds for both research and care for those afflicted in the Bay Area. Huey Lewis and The News took part in that effort, playing a concert on May 23, 1989, 37 years ago today, at Slim's in San Francisco.

Huey Lewis - 1984-08-20 - Saratoga Springs, NY (SBD)

I guess if you were a San Francisco musician between 1965 and 1995, at some point you were going to play alongside Jerry Garcia.  Huey Lewis was originally a member of Clover, a pyschedelic country rock band that played with Garcia's Old & In The Way in the mid 1970s.  Lewis also sat in with the Grateful Dead on a few occaisions, adding harmonica to songs such as Good Morning Little School Girl and Turn On Your Lovelight, including an appearance at the Bammies in 1998 that you can find here.  This soundboard recording captures Huey and the News in Saratoga Springs on August 20, 1984, 41 years ago today.

In 1977, Dennis Erokan, publisher of Bay Area Music magazine, founded the Bammies, of Bay Area Music Awards, designed to recognize the best musicians and musical performances by San Francisco area bands. The Bammies ran for about 20 years, finally fizzling out in 1997. Each year's awards ceremony was highlighted by musical performances, and would inevitably end with everyone onstage together for a free-for-all jam session. This FM broadcast captures the Grateful Dead & friends at the 11 Annual Bammies on March 12, 1988, 33 years ago today. The Dead swept almost all the awards that night, on the heels of the commercial and critical success of the album In The Dark and the single Touch of Grey in 1987.
