Mark Rothko, Latvian-American, (1903-1970), Untitled, 1949, pigmented hide glue and oil on canvas, 204.15 x 168.6 x 5.08 cm, National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, USA

The Dead let loose a lighthearted Let the Good Times Roll out of the gate and, boy, do they ever. An earnest, rocking Blow Away, stratospheric Help> Slip> Franklin's, house of horrors Other One, and Jerry-led He's Gone are just some of the many highlights. gratefuldeadoftheday.com/12-08-1989

The acoustic opening set is out of sight from the Must Have Been the Roses to the Ripple to the China Doll. The lovely sound, pacing, and ambience continues through the two electric sets as well, including on a beautiful Althea and a righteous Stella. gratefuldeadoftheday.com/10-26-1980

John Atkinson Grimshaw, British (1836-1893), Twilight, 1871, oil on card laid down on panel, 56 x 38 cm, private collection

On August 26th, 1970, the 3rd Isle of Wight Festival began, and it would also be the last until revived in 2002. The 1st two years, the festival had a modest attendance. In 1970, the estimates range from 500,000 to over 600,000. At the time, it was the largest musical event, larger than Woodstock.

Here is a fancy bird for your Friday evening, a male Golden-browed Chlorophonia. They are found in Central America, in Costa Rice and Panama, and Birds of the World describes them as short-billed, chunky tanagers. San Gerardo de Dota, Costa Rica
