Grateful Dead

dead.net the official site

I can never refuse an invite to list the last 5 I have played-so here goes;

Munich 5/18 72-like most people! Amazing bass on Dark Star
Lucky Charms Michael Messer
The Centennial Collection Robert Johnson
Wild Heart Samantha Fish

Muddy "Mississippi" Waters Live -from his time with Johnny Winters in the late 70s

Phish just don't draw me in, I'm afraid. As ever, people on here have been very generous, forwarding live downloads, but there's something about them that puts me off. I can't quite figure what it is, and I'll admit I haven't given them a fair chance. Not everything's for everyone, I guess.

... I would love a box set for the ‘Pacific Northwest’ Tour 68’ recordings used to complete the Grateful Dead’s second album, ‘Anthem of the Sun’
Jan. 20th 1968 - Eureka
Jan. 26-27th 1968 - Eagles Auditorium, Seattle
Feb. 2-3rd 1968 - Crystal Ballroom, Portland
Feb. 14th 1968 - Carousel Ballroom, S.F.
Feb. 22-24th 1968 - Kings Beach, Lake Tahoe
March 15-17th - Carousel Ballroom, S.F.
March 29-31st - Carousel Ballroom, S.F.
And they used 11/10-11/67 - Shrine Expo, L.A.
...portions of some of these shows have been released over the years I believe... :)

...after talking about Europe 72’ the other day about ‘Munich’ got me thinking about Daves Pick #24, Berkeley August 1972’ . I grabbed it off my shelf and put it in my player. I gotta say I really enjoy this release. I think Dave gave us fans a great show with excellent audio quality. Two thumbs up for releasing this show from the vault. 72’ is an era of its own and the quality of the dead’s playing during this point in their career and dealing with record company business as well during this time frame. A lot was going on in 1972 behind the doors of the Grateful Dead.
Love the second disc with a sweet ‘ Bird Song’ and a beautiful version of ‘Friend of the Devil’.
The third disc contains a spaced out ‘Other One’ that leads into ‘Stella Blue’ which has some fine guitar work by Jerry & Bob. The show ends with ‘Sugar Magnolia’ with great vocals by Bob, Jerry and Phil! Daves pick 24 is a ‘Primo’ (lol) release in my book. :)
...eager to watch Daves ‘seaside chat’ and listen to the music sample provided next week for volume #29!...

This is what I sent WMG

Thanks for the replacement CD but it still skips in the EXACT same place it skipped before

Getting same skips as everyone else on Dave’s Picks Vol 28 - Disc 3 Track 4 at the 1:40 minute mark (Let it Grow). I tried on 4 CD players and 3 PCs and skips on all of them.

Had similar problems with Pacific Northwest ’73-’74 release - you sent me 2 replacement discs and all of them skipped so you finally refunded me the money (thanks – I ended up buying digital version).

What the heck is going on with your manufacturer??? I noticed on the last couple I ordered that the CDs are made in Mexico (at least that’s what the shrink wrap had stamped on it). WTFrack is going on down there? There is definitely a quality issue. I’ve been buying Dead vinyl and CDs since late 60’s/early 70’s and only one CD with skipping issues before the last two CDs I received from you.

....Phish is right up your alley my friend!
Last five time!!
Dead Kennedys - Plastic Surgery Disaster
Over The Rhine- Good Dog Bad Dog
Day Of The Dead - Disc 3
GOGD - Seattle 6.26.73. Playin' & The Second Set
Led Zeppelin - Presence

That whole show rocks..

79 seems to be getting a lot of traction these days. I wonder if Betty recorded the entire five show New Year's run? The 26th, 28th and most of the 30th have been released. There is a partial soundboard that circulates from the 27th, what's left of the 30th and the 31st. I believe New Years was recorded on video too, perhaps only black and white??

Still.. these represent some of better two track reel to reel masters, a rarity for 79 (and beyond). 12/26 was special.
