    A few off the top of my head

    Here are a few that come to mind among many:

    8/29/80 Philly (actually, the 8/29-8/31 run would make a pretty good boxed set)
    8/4/76 from Colt Park in Hartford
    10/14 and 10/15/84 also from Hartford

    Yes, I know no SBD historically exists in the vault, but has it shown up? Or how about an offshoot series of audience recordings, say 10 volumes to start to see what the interest is. Have the taper of each show write up the notes.

    Shows we'd like to see....

    7.2.88 Oxford Plains Speedway, Oxford, ME would be my pick for a show I'd like to see put out. I know 7.3 has already been released on "30 Trips", so maybe it's been considered and then passed over, but 7.2 is the finest example of what the GD experience was, in my opinion. In terms of song selection, quality of jams and overall feel; this night is most deserving of getting the royal treatment.
    Picking your favorite Dead Show has always been like picking your favorite flavor of ice cream. Suffice it to say, I really like ice cream and this night is one of my favorite flavors!

    1972.10.18 Fox Theater St.Louis

    Sorry, I did this wrong earlier, posted as a comment to someone else's request rather than a new post. So: the point is that 1972.10.18 Fox Theater St. Louis is one of the finest shows from the finest tour of the finest year. I'd love to hear your magicians clean it up and release it in it's entirety!

    The one show I would MOST…

    The one show I would MOST like to see released in the Dave's Picks series is the incredible 1972.10.18 Fox Theater St. Louis show. The Playin > Dark Star > Morning Dew > Playin is simply mind blowing. This is also the first time the Dead split up Playin. They wouldn't do it again until over a year later on 10/21/73. Pretty please?

    A Capitol Idea

    As much as I love Three From the Vault, I have always been disappointed that the entire 5-show run from the Capitol Theater in February 1971 wasn't released as a box set. (Perhaps just cheekily skipping 3 and 4 and called Five From the Vault, haha.) After all, they were all recorded on multitracks.

    I suppose that with Three From the Vault, it's too late for a boxed set of all five shows, but at the very least, the multitracks from 1971-02-18 should be mixed down and released. First Bertha. That Dark Star > [first] Wharf Rat > Dark Star > Me & My Uncle. A great, great show, with Ned Lagin and his magical tinkling clavichord and the last we'd see/hear from Mickey for five years.

    This is such a no-brainer.

There have been so many great guests appear with the boys /girl :>) I could write a book...so from the Beach Boys to Edie Brickell there should be a CD set with guests. Hows that sound? Eric

consider Bruce and Branford. Is it the Hampton show that has that amazing Bird Song? In general, I agree with you though, if only because (Cipollina being a prime example) they were pretty much reduced to playing standards that were in their common vocabulary. Mileage varies considerably though.

Not sure if any of those made DP's. The Palladium Shows in NYC, Cornell, and Buffalo would be a great addition on CD and if only there were video from those shows, that would be amazing! Many thanks Paul ,

Nice Post Marye! There's no doubt the spring '77 stuff is worthy, however, there's so many soundboard quality shows in circulation it would seem to be a duplication of effort to officially release them. Perhaps we have Betty to thank for this? Hey DrkStr Paul: Check out DP #29 & Download Series #1 for your Palladium show. How 'bout the New Year's run '87-'88? Great shows, and I would gladly plop down $30 for it.

I was up close for this show, so I'd love to hear it again. There don't seem to be any copies available. I hope it's in the vault. If not, maybe the Creamery gang has it. Anybody? DW

No one show would accomplish this, but I'd love to have a CD with good live versions of all the original songs, and some of the covers, that were performed after "Built to Last." Good versions of Liberty, Eternity, Days Between, So Many Roads, Way to Go Home, Lazy River Road, Corrina, Easy Answers, If the Shoe Fits, Samba in the Rain, as well as covers like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, It's All Too Much, etc. Steve Premo -- Santa Cruz, California "If there's ever an answer, it's more love" - Tim O'Brien

Marye says: "Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process." Pardon my skepticism, but when are we going to see this stuff? My personal opinion is that the lack of new releases is causing the customers (i.e., us) to lose interest. I'd like to see 3 or 4 new CD releases, plus a DVD, every year.

I know I am probably in a small minority but I loved the way the Dead did the old Irish folk song Maid of Fifeo. I heard them do it at a show, had an old soundboard tape which I can no longer find. Is it on any show CDs now ? Tanks to anyone who knows. Burt Bayonne628@aol.com

You are gonna' have to provide a little more info. I searched "maid" "maide" and "fifeo" in Deadbase and there were no matches for song titles containing any of those words. Other possible titles or spellings? Richard

That which you seek may be the Bonnie Lass of Fyvie-o, a folk song also known as Fennario. Peggy-O is a variant of this and although Deadbase does not mention it, the Setlists site returns two hits on 'Fennario' 05/25/95- Memorial Stadium - Seattle, WA 06/04/95- Shoreline Amphitheatre - Mountain View, CA Whether the Dead sang a different version in those shows or any others I do not know Here is one version There once was a troop o' Irish dragoons Cam marching doon through Fyvie-o And the captains fall in love wi' a very bonnie lass And her name it was cad pretty Peggy-o There's many a bonnie lass in the Howe o Auchterless There's many a bonnie lass in the Garioch There's many a bonnie Jean in the streets of Aiberdeen But the floor o' them aw lyes in Fyvie-o O come doon the stairs, Pretty Peggy, my dear Come doon the stairs, Pretty Peggy-o Come doon the stairs, comb back your yellow hair Bid a long farewell to your mammy-o It's braw, aye it's braw, a captain's lady for to be And it's braw to be a captain's lady-o It's braw to ride around and to follow the camp And to ride when your captain he is ready-o O I'll give you ribbons, love, and I'll give you rings I'll give you a necklace of amber-o I'll give you a silken petticoat with flounces to the knee If you'll convey me doon to your chamber-o What would your mother think if she heard the guineas clink And saw the haut-boys marching all before you o O little would she think gin she heard the guineas clink If I followed a soldier laddie-o I never did intend a soldier's lady for to be A soldier shall never enjoy me-o I never did intend to gae tae a foreign land And I never will marry a soldier-o I'll drink nae more o your claret wine I'll drink nae more o your glasses-o Tomorrow is the day when we maun ride away So farewell tae your Fyvie lasses-o The colonel he cried, mount, boys, mount, boys, mount The captain, he cried, tarry-o O tarry yet a while, just another day or twa Til I see if the bonnie lass will marry-o Twas in the early morning, when we marched awa And O but the captain he was sorry-o The drums they did beat o'er the bonnie braes o' Gight And the band played the bonnie lass of Fyvie-o Long ere we came to the Howe of Auchterless We had our captain to carry-o And long ere we won into the streets of Aberdeen We had our captain to bury-o Green grow the birks on bonnie Ythanside And low lie the lowlands of Fyvie-o The captain's name was Ned and he died for a maid He died for the bonnie lass of Fyvie-o

OK, I'm confused now.Peggy-O is an extremely common song for the Dead. Some setlists show it as Fennario but it still sounds like Peggy-O to me. Sorry I can't help. Richard

Ya man - Red Rocks 8/30/78............. I would luv to here this in SB quality. Only out there in good>very good AUD quality (as far as I know). The version of If I Had The World To Give is stunning.

OK, while I'm at it: 12-1-71 Best Cryptical > Other One ever???? also, pretty much anything from that lost fall tour of 72 that might turn up would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks!!!!!

Phil, in his bio, talks about his last set with Jerry - Black Muddy River, and then Phil adds Box of Rain. That would be a wonderful show to have. Is it published?

A road trips #2 would be perfect. A whole show from the already highlighted fall 79 tour would be cool. Something that isn't on Road trips #1. Also 4/29/72 that we heard the track from on mondays tapers section would be cool. I'd like all of europe 72 someday. Why not get started. One more I would love something from the 86-89 time I don't think I have any live material from this time and I can't find any official releases either.

I wish they would release a cd of a Deer Creek show from late eighties or early nineties. or a box set from all of them or a road trips with the best of each show. Deer Creek was always a head favorite place to see the boys. I had a lot of great and crazy times there. The riots in 95 sucked but I think a good release would over shadow that incident. I still have the ticket in perfect condition from the show that was cancelled due to the riots. I would also love to see a release from Cincinnati 1989. That was a very good show but I've had a hard time finding a great copy. Please don't forget the Heads from the midwest. The Alpine dvd was good but I would like to see more.

I would love some Shows from 1975.I don't know if this post belongs in this thread, please move it, if it does not. The GD only had 4 shows during this year: March 23, 1975 Venue: Kezar Stadium June 17, 1975 Venue: Winterland Arena August 13, 1975 Great American Music Hall September 28, 1975 Lindley Meadows thanks so much for your time and effort. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Rich man step on my poor head, When you get up you better butter my bread."

Considering that the Great American Music Hall has been released as One From the Vault, 1/4 of 1975 has been officially released, a higher percentage than any other year. So, I doubt we'll see another '75 release.

Ladies & Gentleman, the Grateful Dead was not enough. We should get the entire week the dead played, from April 25 to April 29th, 1971. With special guests each night like the Beach Boys, Allman Bros, TC, that entire week shoud come out as a mini box set. Pretty please =) Then, the last night of the 1973 tour at the Boston Garden. Three sets of pure heaven. -EW
