7" Singles Collection 2019 Subscription
We're back with the highly-collectible 7” vinyl series and a subscription to that series, to boot. We're eight deep into the chronological releases of each of the Grateful Dead's singles. 2019 will see the next batch remastered on 7-inch colored vinyl featuring newly commissioned artwork, each limited to 10,000 copies and available exclusively at dead.net. Didn't subscribe last year but want to collect the whole set? Singles 1-8 are available a la carte in the Dead.net store.
The first release, arriving March 1, will be 1973's “Eyes Of The World” b/w "Weather Report Pt. 1.” This limited-edition reissue features newly remastered audio, transferred from the original analog master tape of the mono single mix, mastered by Grammy-winning engineer David Glasser with original artwork by Matt McCormick.
Other volumes to be released in 2019 include:
“U.S. Blues’”/“Loose Lucy”
“The Music Never Stopped”/“Help On The Way”
“Franklin's Tower”/“Help On The Way”*
*Features A B-Side So Good They Included It Twice
The artwork made me do it . . .
I feel like Chevy Chase in the pool scene from Vacation . . . "This is crazy . . . " because I just ordered all the singles that have been released, PLUS a 2019 Singles subscription. Why is that crazy?--I don't even own a record player! But the artwork on the singles, particularly this year, is just too good not to have and display in my Grateful Dead den.
Need info ? Help Pre-order early bird price
What is the cutoff date for 7 inch Early Bird price pre-order ? I don't see it mentioned here, but I know cutoff for Dave's Picks is tonight November 9 at midnight. I just ordered the Dave's picks in the nick of time. I hope pre-order for the single series is a couple more weeks.
B Side So Good They Included It Twice.....WTF????
Why would they include the same song twice on back to back singles......guess someone really needed some HELP! Is it the same version of the song with different artwork? Makes no sense if it's the same song......kind of a rip off for a subscription to have repeats? Does anyone have further insight on this?
Answer please
Can we get an answer to the question on why Help On The Way is being released twice back-to-back for a subscription package?
digital download?
anyone get the link for the digital download of #12
RE: @CaseyJanes, @gschoonover
the concept behind this multi-year subscription is to re-create the original single releases in the order they were releaesed.....back in 1975, the two vinyl singles that were released originally both had Help On The Way as their Side B song.....so that's the reason why this 2019 subscription had two consecutive releases with the same song on side B.

2019 7" Singles Collection Vol. 12
I see that I'm not the only one who never received the download link for the Volume 12 singles Franklin's Tower/Help On The Way. Here I was thinking I accidentally deleted the email, but apparently an email was never sent out for that issue. I would still love to have it though.
