    Not a particular show, but a Dave's Picks prediction. 2020 saw '77, '74, '84, and two '87s. 2021 has '78 and '73 so far. I predict Dave's Picks #39 will be a '60s show and Dave's Picks #40 will be a '90s show. BTW, thanks for 3 '80s shows last year....I really mean it!

    There are a lot of shows that I'd like to see released, but, for the reasons you mention, this is one I think would be a top-10 in the Dave's series. The Comes A Time has only a few rivals, all from around the show's date, including 12/05. And the 2nd set odyssey, capped by a stomping Saturday Night (I particularly love the pre-encore Dead Air - it's gotta be part of the release) would be something I think Deadheads would really appreciate. One day...

    12/10/71 Fox Theatre, St. Louis. Extremely solid and well played like everything else from this period. Comes A Time may just be the most absolutely perfect early version, but the jam with Truckin' > The Other One > Drums > Sitting On Top of The World is some of the finest Grateful Dead music one will ever hear.

    11/11/70 46th Street Rock Palace in Brooklyn. Wednesday night. First of four in a row. Two or three songs into the second set out came Jorma, Jack and Papa John. They played most if not all of the set with the Dead. There are two copies on Archive. The quality of both is terrible.
    i've been looking for a clean copy for years.

    How bout , 07-04-1984 ... I have a cassette recorded from YouTube of the SBD, sounds great , easy show to release ...

    How bout 02-15-1973 , I noticed a Master Reel source popped up on Archive.org , so why not let us get a nice remaster of this classic show

    I know the Betty Boards have always been popular but they are so widely circulated ... so let's have some shows that are RARE - keep it real !!!

    Merriweather Summer 1985

    Considering that Dave's Picks 36 is made up of two consecutive shows, the same approach would be ideal for the 6/30/85 and 7/1/85 Merriweather shows. Both nights were excellent, and Heads have debated for years which night was better. A nice 4 CD DP release could cover it all.

    A single show I would love to see and another fave from 1985 is the 3/28/85 Nassau Coliseum show, although you'd need some extra filler to get it to 3 CDs. But that show holds up. Scarlet-Fire is my jam, and that one is insane, with Bobby getting incredible sounds and Jerry melting concrete. I just hope that show has not been blackballed for archival release because of Mickey's really rude behavior -- on stage -- to guest Matt Kelly on the following night, when he kept chucking his drumsticks at the back of Kelly's head, probably because Kelly had sued Billy for beating the snot out of him after Billy confronted Kelly over money he was owed for a Kingfish tour (I remember those chants of "Let Bill Sing!" on that club tour).

    Perhaps it's something in the air, but I feel like this show's time has come. Jerry had a tone on his guitar on this night (just the right amount of reverb) that, like the Miles Davis classic, "Kind of Blue," I've tried to search in vain for its twin, only to never to find it again. The acid-dripping beauty of this night just stands out in my mind for some reason (like the Dark Star from 2/13/70, or the just officially released--thanks again, Dave!--Dark Star>Wharf Rat>Dark Star from 2/18/71). It would blow my mind if this show were to see the light of day. And after the year we've all had to endure, couldn't we use just a little bit of light?

    Any other 'Heads out there agree?

Sounds like a mighty fine show. And not many shows have been released with Shakedown Street, especially a 2nd set opener.

After completing two consecutive shows at Oakland Stadium with The Who the previous weekend, The Dead performed two shows, Thur.-Fri. 14-15 October 1976, @ the Shrine Auditorium in L.A..
The second show on the 15th is "The One".
it's "the One" that would be seriously considered for a Dave's Picks release. But Dave says the last reel for the 2nd set is missing. Oh, and no encore because there was no need for one.

I asked this on another area of this blog already. May ask again. Can someone PLEASE tell me how I can buy an authentic cd or download of the complete dead soundcheck set from the Watkins Glen show - 7/27/1973? Thank you for any reply? Have the jam from So Many Roads. Have a framed poster in my home office. (I was only 11 at that time, I’m convinced I was born 10 years too late because I would have been there).

11/11/70. 46th Street Rock Palace Brooklyn. Wednesday night. First of 4. A few songs into the second set out came Jorma, Jack and Papa John Creech from the Airplane who played most if not all of the set. I've been looking for a clean copy for decades. The ones on Archive are horrible.

Folsom Field Boulder, Co from June 1980.
And since I'm here: A four disc (3+ bonus disc) Red Rocks 8-30, 31-78 if it would all fit. May have to go mini-box. This run has at least five first time songs having just come from the recording of Shakedown Street and is a slower just exactly perfect pair of performances in stark contrast, and in a crazy juxtaposition, to the July '78 Red Rocks shows.
Cheers from colorful Colorado

Hey now! I would *really*, *really*, *really* love it if Louisville - 1974 could be an official release, if there's a decent tape of it in the Vault. It was my 1st show! How 'bout it, David?

Great show, this was the Wolfman Jack show and was my first live Dead, way too delayed because, being ancient, had followed them since 1967. Have black and white photos of this show, wish there was a way to post some here.

Can't help myself, the one show I would request, if a soundboard recording was returned to the band, would be Felt Forum 12/5/71. The Holy Grail of 1971 shows...........

When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed......

Rock on,

Doc
I wish for other people because I already have all my wishes......

Why don't you call this one for Pot day? Don't know if I've tuned into this one before and I don't mind if I do now! ;-P

P.S. Shameless pick: 7/28/82 Red Rocks (don't mess with my levels)

I have avoided discussing 12/5/71 in my POTD posts, but not because it's not deserving. It absolutely is. However, in this thread I've tried---not always with success---to avoid "The Classics", which that Felt show definitely is.

And, I may be wrong, but it's a well known show, and these days I'm generally trying to highlight lesser known shows. How I approach this may reflect a bias based on my own collection, as I often assume everybody has "xx-xx-xxxx", and therefore doesn't need to be discussed.

Could be wrong, but cue it up anyways. Nobody will regret it............

Music is forever; music should grow and mature with you, following you right on up until you die......

Rock on,

Doc
When people hear good music, it makes them homesick for something they never had, and never will have......

Don't be shy to recommend anything, including cornell on POT Day. Shoot man, I'm a flaming dead freak. Never specifically tuned into 12/5/71 that I know of. Hella enjoying it today. Comes a Time>Casey Jones is where I'm at in the sequence.

And now, back to painting!! :-) :-) :-)

edit- 12-5-71 thru Sugar Magnolia - very intense rendition and crowd totally into it thruout the set.

Is someone calling out La Bamba in set one? :-) Back to it... :-)'

12/31/72 unbelievable show. The pitb was included on the closing of Winterland bonus disc, but from what I can find of the fm broadcast, the truckin > other one > dew is where the show really separates itself. Would love to hear it cleaned up one day.

Good morning, fellow rockers!!!

2/9/73 is clearly worthy of release, but if I had to pick only one show, it would be 12/5/71, provided a soundboard has been returned to the vault..........

I am not unaware of the saying that more tears have been shed over wishes granted than wishes denied.......

Rock on!

I am really digging this show 6/10/1973. I had never heard the complete show, and am hoping it would be released in its entirety. I can image some copy write issues but it would be a winner.

4/17/71, can't believe this one has not been released yet. My guess is either soon individually or better yet as part of an April '71 box, or series of boxes a la May 77, Spring 90, and (hopefully) June 76.

Man, this would be nice to see released! One of my all time favorites over the years. Both sets are on fire...Let it Grow>Deal to close the first set is like no other. 2nd set Estimated>Franklins's is one of just a couple of that combo, gorgeous transition. Runner up to this show is 7/10/81. The 2nd set is as good as it looks.

💀⚡️🥀 I was just awaiting a Dave's Subscription & speculating the next release while looking at my stat sheet I made a few years ago of Dicks Picks & Daves saves when I first subscribed. Anyways I figure 1988 & `89 are little represented in either series as well being only a few shows from the GD "Download series" and only seen on box sets or "Without a Net" in 1990.

Anyways, so I went show shopping and came up with 6~25~88 @ Buckeye Music Center, Buckeye lake, Ohio. A good single summer show in town with a nice array of classic hits AND some choice cuts from new material soon to be released on a later studio album, 1989's Built To Last.✌️😸

P.S.~1982 is also a seldom seen official release year.

Figured I might as well put in a vote.

I would like to recommend the 10/10/1982 for a release.This was my 20th show and I feel it is worthy of a chance at an official release if the source material exists to be turned into a CD that meets Dave's Picks or commercial release requirements.

Having been there for both shows (9th and 10th) I do know that the playing was quite good both days. The band really seemed to be dialed in by the 10th. A couple of my buddies that were living in San Francisco at the time had snuck into the theater (either the day before or early morning) and wrote "Pummel Us, Phil!" on the stage right about where he would typically stand. Not sure if Phil saw the words or not, but I can tell you he did pummel us both days (check out the Morning Dew from the 9th for a taste of what the 10th had in store). This was also the last time I saw Phil playing a 4 string bass. By my next show (12/26/1982) he had moved to the 6 string.

All songs are great renditions with some highlights of Loser, Far From Me, Looks Like Rain, China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider, Playing In The Band > Crazy Fingers > Lost Sailor > Saint Of Circumstance > Touch Of Grey. Pretty awesome end of first set, then second set before drums. For me the whole show was great and those are a sample of how well they played in California on a sunny day.

Thanks for any consideration,
CorkyO

Ill second that pick, and add 10/9/82 for a 2 show release. Both shows were a knockout. 1982, the best year at the Frost. Put it together with 83 & 85 and you would have a great box set.
