New Riders of the Purple Sage / Hempsteader: Live At The Calderone Concert Hall, Hempstead, New York, June 25, 1976 - 18 tracks on 2-LP green vinyl LPs recorded during one of their live peaks in one of their hottest markets Contains several of John Dawson's classic originals and covers of Chuck Berry, Otis Redding, The Rolling Stones, and more Packaging features photos and liner notes from NRPS archivist and SiriusXM personality Rob Bleetstein Sit back, spark one up and let Hempsteader take you back to one supremely rocking night on Long Island with the New Riders. -Rob Bleetstein, from his liner notes New Riders of the Purple Sage emerged out of the San Francisco music scene in 1969-their original lineup featuring several Grateful Dead members-and soon became one of the hottest live acts to catch. They released their debut in 1971 (peaking at #39 on the Top 200) and 1973's The Adventures Of Panama Red reached RIAA Gold status. Hempsteader: Live At The Calderone Concert Hall, Hempstead, New York, June 25, 1976 captures the band live and on fire on the heels of their MCA New Riders release. Several of John "Marmaduke" Dawson's original fan favorites like "Henry, " "Portland Woman" and "Glendale Train" are given prime treatment, especially this version of "Portland Woman" which finds the band stretching out with guitarist David Nelson and pedal steel guitarist Buddy Cage taking the song to new places and heights. The band also delves into covers by the likes of Delbert McClinton, Hazel Dickens, Jack Tempchin (Eagles, Johnny Rivers, Glenn Frey), Loudon Wainwright III, Chuck Berry, and tremendous takes on the Otis Redding classic "Hard To Handle" (which Grateful Dead fans will recall from their earlier days) and The Rolling Stones' "Dead Flowers." As with Thanksgiving In New York City, Field Trip, and Lyceum '72, this release is helmed and Produced for release by Rob Bleetstein-Host and Producer on SiriusXM's Grateful Dead and Pearl Jam channels, and NRPS archivist. Bleetstein also provided photos and liner notes. Available on CD and high-resolution digital (where available), Hempsteader: Live At The Calderone Concert Hall, Hempstead, New York, June 25, 1976 is a chance to relive that time and place, or just feel like you were there.

By far, my favorite shop to buy from! Always quick with the delivery! Love tyler the creator and I've been searching for this specific vinyl at a good price!
package shipped well. there was a fragile sticker on the box which was nice, most places don’t put that and vinyls get damaged. package arrived in perfect condition.
Good packaging, product was in good condition and showed up on time great album no problems with any of the vinyls either very happy with it.
I am a huge Bob's Burger Fan and found this album as I was browsing the website. I had to get it immediately. I can believe I came across this on a random Tuesday. Can't thank coming across pale blue records enough. And the delivery is super fast. Can't wait for my next purchase.
Super fast shipping, packing done well. Exactly as described. The customer service and product choice is why I keep coming back.

Would definitely buy from Pale Dot Records again. The delivery was fast and the records sounds great!
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my 29 year old son. Can't wait for him to open. Packaged with care and timely shipping. Positive experience!
Vinyls arrived in perfect condition, expertly packed, and 3 days from the date of purchase (over the Thanksgiving holiday, no less). Could not be more pleased. Thanks so much!
We received our vinyl fast, it was fairly price, and they had a great selection to choose from. One record we purchased had an issue on the track, and the owner was quick to resolve the issue for us. I’ll be purchasing all of our records from this store moving forward!
The records and the sleeve are really nice. Pacific Dot Records blew me away with shipping it out like, immediately after I ordered it. Arrived well protected and perfect. No complaints.
fast shipping, great communication, and awesome staff. very responsive with messages too. can’t wait to purchase from them again
Records arrived inside the special record boxes, unopened, and in pristine condition. They didn't very long to begin the shipping either. Some places make you wait 3-5 days just to have it shipped out. They did not.
This is not about the product. I've ordered from PBD before and the Vinyls that come from them are wonderful and pressed really well!
This review is more on customer service.
USPS seemed to have goofed around a bit and cause a delay of about 1.5 weeks. Tristan was a highly communicative person and was reassuring with the options I had regarding if my order never arrived. Good sense of humor, accountability, and customer satisfaction. The Sweetwater of vinyl shops. Officially my vinyl go to!
