S, I have it all on a box set if interested. It's been 4 years since you posted the request...so you may have it or it may already have been released. Hit me back if you still are interested. GarchiaPet

I don't believe "Days Between" appears on any official releases does it? What a shame because it was truly a last great song from Hunter-Garcia. I think they played it a lot for how short a life it had so please pick the best sounding, most jamming show that it appeared in and release!

How about the complete late shows from feb 13 & 14 1970, How about a matrix of these shows that would enable the audio to sound like the band did to our ears, come on lets break some new ground in some very groovy old placesJanuary 2& 3 1970 fillmore east, especially 1/3/70 late show, TC was awesome july 12, 1970 fillmore east never ENOUGH

Fillmore East September 1970.....PLEEEEASE ! Count me among the many unconcerned by cuts or incomplete songs...the sound of those shows is unparalleled in my mind. Just epic. Red Rocks 7.8.1978 Thank you so much for the opportunity to contribute our thoughts here....

well, I do love that show. It's really short, but that moment when they break into UJB and the crowd goes nuts rarely fails to bring tears to my eyes. I played that tape so much I sang the guitar parts to myself.

...and marye can write the liner notes. I would LOVE to see that one!! It's time!

I'll put in a plug for the July '78 shows, as well as the Aug. 12, '79 Red Rocks and Aug 13, '79 at McNichols. Might as well mine the 'early' years at Red Rocks first, before dipping into the 1980s. The July 1981 shows at McNichols might worthy of exploring, too, but I'm "Dead sure" of the '78 and '79 shows. Thanks for listening to our requests.

A simple permutation will get you another show I'd love to see (and think will eventually be) released. Suspiciously, neither of these shows were tapped for RT 1.1 or RT 1.2 keeping them whole and thus candidates for full show releases. Of course the caveats, if they are both in the vault and don't have glaring technical issues. I was weaned on 10/27/79, it was one of the first tapes I had. I listened to the first set yesterday and the first half of the second set today.

I'm not sure if any of the following are unavailable (even as DLs on the Archive) because they've been released already or if plans are being made to release them, officially, or what. (I'm aware I can stream them.) 3/13/71 - Michigan St. Univ. (in the Vault, I think) 3/14/82 - Cal-Davis 5/6/89 - Frost 6/1/91 - LA Coliseum 3/17/94 - Rosemont 6/14/94 - Memorial Stadium in Seattle 2/20/95 - Delta Center, SLC Then there are those for which there is a circulating copy (reportedly), but they're not on Archive in any format: 7/9/70 - Fillmore East (supposed to be on a 7/11/70 AUD master) 6/27/70 - Toronto 5/21/68 - Carousel (aka Tuesday Night Jam) 5/3/68 - Columbia U (supposedly in the film Columbia Revolt) 12/31/66 - Fillmore Aud 10/31/66 - California Hall (Dance of Death Costume Ball - SBD is supposedly not Dead) 9/11/66 - Fillmore Aud (some tapes that are labeled 9/11 are actually 9/16 or 8/7) 3/19/66 - Carthay Studios, LA (confused with 3/12 often in tapes/setlists) 1/7/66 - Matrix (show may not have occurred)

I just had the opportunity to listen to the entire Feb. 74 Winterland run. As someone mentioned in one of the more frequented threads, the magic tends to happen on Sunday. The mixes are rather spotty on the 2/22 and 2/23 shows. Jerry is way too low in the mix and Keith is out way front, which is not necessarily a terrible thing as Keith is on top of his game here. That said, I would not be terribly disappointed to see simply a solo release of 2/24 (with highlights from 2/22 and 2/23 of course) and not box set treatment. This opinion is subject to change. (weasel words, I know)
