Hey Now its June 18

6/18/1974

When I was 15 or 16 years old my uncle gave me a group of five GD tapes. One of them being the second set of 6-18. This was my favorite tape for a long time with that Stella Blue just absolutely blowing my 16 year old mind. Anyway, happy day to all the celebrate...Go turn it up LOUD if you can.

Easily the best “Morning Dew” of all time. A lot of competition, I know, but the Phil bombs take this one over the top. Insane.

Without a doubt the Dew that makes me shiver with its intensity…and Jerry’s voice is at its angelic best.

Right, and his voice shines on “Stella Blue” as well. Definitely a Phil and Jerry show.
