Scenes From The Southside was released 25 years ago this week.
Does anyone have any favorite memories associated with this album or tales of concerts you attended during that time?

I’ve never mentioned this to anyone before, but….I was living in Jamaica and serving as the ‘country director’ for a ‘missions organization’. We had large teams of 200 plus people at a time doing construction projects, medical and dental clinics. Every morning, and I do mean every morning, as the sun was rising over Blue Mountain, as I got into my pick-up to go to ‘site’, there was always ‘Scenes’ on the cassette player! It was always my ‘connection’ to the ‘homeland’ and was always there when I needed ‘comfort’. Now you know why I am the ‘Czar of Blabbery’! It brought me ‘joy’ when I needed it!
I guess I heard Look Out Any Window on the radio since I was living back in the woods with no MTV. Of course, since 2002 (procrastinated a while before seeing Bruce live!) The Road Not Taken has beeen one of my favorites. I caught a few Dead shows before Bruce around then, including a quick flight to Philly with a stay in a Camden NJ motel where I saw a room full of guys with Uzis or MAC-whatevers. I didn’t look them in the eye and I was hoping they were undercover cops or just gun dealers!
