    "What fans heard in these four {Lyceum} shows was both a history of the Dead and a survey of their unique vision of American music, from folk to rock, with blues and R&B and country-and-western and Bakersfield all included, all melded together by the improvisational spirit of American jazz in a small-group format that owed much to European classical music.

    The repertoire made a statement: this is who we are. And while that honored their roots and surveyed their history and evolution, the overwhelming focus was on the present. At the Lyceum, showgoers heard a tapestry of music that knit together the disparate strands of the ’60s psychedelic baroque of AOXOMOXOA and LIVE/DEAD with the Americana turn epitomized by WORKINGMAN’S DEAD and AMERICAN BEAUTY, which in many ways both continued and culminated in Skull and Roses. English fans were especially delighted to hear the new songs — for fans accustomed to bands using concerts to promote their records, that kind of generosity was striking. Those songs showed a band that was consolidating and deepening its distinctive approach to American vernacular music while still expanding the range of what that could include. Pigpen’s two originals added a distinctive flourish, but the new tunes also made it clear that Weir had emerged in his own right as a singer and songwriter, as well as showing that the wellsprings that fed Garcia and Hunter’s music were drawing on ever deeper aquifers." - Nicholas Meriwether

    Imagine, if you will, being amongst the first to witness the merry band of misfits that had taken over the good ol' U.S. of A. conquer foreign lands. When the Grateful Dead first unleashed their magic on the cautiously optimistic patrons of Wembley of 4/7/72 and 4/8/72, it was with the idea they would have just these two nights to impress a traditionally reserved London crowd. It turned out to be a smashing success, and they set about locking in four dates at one of London’s most storied venues, the Lyceum Theatre, to wrap up what some consider one of the greatest tours in rock history.

    On these four nights, we find the band hell-bent on telling 'em "how it's gonna be," and boy, did they ever. Powered by what Jerry called "peak optimism," they delivered a steady dose of "primal Dead," - sometimes searing, sometimes soulful, sometimes serious, but always unwavering in focus. This willful determination moved them through transitive takes on "Dark Star," to majestic heights with "The Other One," through marathon runs of "Playing," another minute, another mile. It found Phil, philosophizing on how to "put our music into a place," Bob and Jerry masterfully dueling as two of the top songwriters of their time, Bill elegantly ferrying songs to new lengths, and new members Keith and Donna Jean Godchaux adding organic warmth. And Pigpen? Well, he dotted his beloved classics - "Good Lovin'," "Mr. Charlie," "Lovelight," "Two Souls In Communion" - through set after set, conjuring up more clarity and charisma than anyone would have expected for his final few shows.

    Due July 29th, LYCEUM 1972: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS marks the Dead’s largest vinyl boxed set of all time, a 24-LP collection featuring these storied final four nights in their entirety on 180-gram vinyl for the first time ever. Limited to just 4,000 copies, the individually-numbered set comes in a colorful slipcase with new artwork by Brian Blomerth. The four shows are organized in individual clamshell boxes, each one featuring the cover art that Scott McDougall created for each concert in EUROPE ’72: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS. The accompanying book includes a new in-depth look at the Lyceum shows by noted Dead scholar Nicholas Meriwether. And that all-important question of sound? Jeffrey Norman's luscious mixes are finally being heard in their full analog beauty. It all makes for a jolly good time, indeed!

    Due to the size ( 17 ¼” x 15 ¾” x 7 3/8”)  and weight (28lbs) of this boxed set, shipping fees for this item will vary.

    Yes, I would agree - most people already have the shows, and this box set costs a pretty penny. I've got it though. And I ain't parting with it - maybe the best box I have ever bought.

    Not so weird when you consider that that the majority of people on this site have probably shelled out for the steamer trunk, or people that missed that one brought the individual shows. I would like to buy it as a collector but as I already have the trunk it would not get the same attention.
    We are lucky that there are always other GD box sets on the horizon,plus Dave's Picks of course.

    WTF WMG?

    Ordered the 24LP box set on April 9th, paid in full.

    Watching others get theirs 2-weeks ago, I was expecting to get something myself.

    PM'd the person everyone says to message on this forum, have to log back into the forum to see if I get a reply, I'm told that they are going to look into it. I emailed the customer service address, got a reply 4 business days later saying they were sorry three times and were going to look into it. Called the WMG phone number (212-275-2000) and left a voice message, nothing from that avenue yet.

    Grab a shipping label, slap it on the box, and place the box on the loading dock.

    I love the Grateful Dead, but my patience is wearing very thin with Warner Music Group.

..... I will hunt you down and hurt you in ways you can't even imagine!

Well this is quite a set, all 4 Lyceum shows on vinyl.

Yes it is 600 bucks (god damn!!)

But this will be a corner pillar in my retirement plan :-)

Seriously, don't tell my wife!!

I won't tell yours if you don't tell mine.

I think I need to buy or rent one of those cheater apartments.. you know, a safe and private place you rent to meet up with your mistress. I don't need it to have an affair, I just need a safe house to put my box sets.

This could quite possibly be the most expensive weed cleaning tray ever made.

Listened to the seaside chat. It was good to hear Distracto-Dave give accolades to 5/25 in between dodging an eagle bombardment (I can only imagine they use him for target practice). I always liked that under the radar show.. it has perhaps my favorite China Rider of the tour. It's a little under-rated gem in my humble opinion.

I almost DIDN'T hit the button :-)

Then I thought of my dear wife and said fuck it. :-)

Definitely a weapon of marriage destruction.

I cannot see myself paying for this, considering I would be looking at shipping to Europe, VAT and potential import duty on top of the cost of the item itself. Import duty in the Netherlands is not levied on CDs and DVDs but LPs are not mentioned in the list on the Customs Service website. If so, it could be up to 12% on top of the 21% VAT.

Gone are the days when the seeds outnumbered the weed
Don't need a cover now to scrape them down.
Most of the weed I buy has no seeds
If fact if you find one you squeal with glee!

(you know the tune, so add a second verse :-) )

But the original album was my go to de-seeding LP. I am glad the reference did not go unnoticed. Evidence of a misspent youth I guess.

I ordered one. That's my indulgence for the year. When I'm feeling weird or down or otherwise uninspired, I often spin a show from this tour to ground myself. It's that good and always lifts my spirits. Last week I hit 5/18 Munich. I never noticed how good the blues/cowboy sequence was before. The El Paso, It Hurts Me Too, You Win Again sandwiched in between a China Rider and PITB. Ethereal goodness. Jerry's tone on this sequence is simply amazing and who else but the GOGD can weave these tunes together and somehow make sense of it. A perfect fit.

As you were..

I know I’ve paid quite a bit here and another site for box sets, but what comes to about $600 for the set and shipping/taxes. I’ve already paid for the Lyceum cds and the multi color vinyl set, but that price tag is just too much. And who knows…maybe it’ll be one of those that sits for a few years with the less than 750 on it, give me time for the market and crypto to rebound! Maybe another Tesla split. That would be nice!

It looks, and I'm sure will sound, fabulous. But...do they think I'm made of money ? I haven't ordered it...but it's a long night ahead.
Going off past history, I rarely regret buying musical things I'm in two minds about.

Pity you can't just buy 5/26/72 on vinyl, and miss the others out.

I nearly wavered again, went to checkout, $98 shipping to England plus taxes will take it to $800 so hastily closed the page. I tried the ' Guess how much this GD box is?' line to my wife but didn't get the 'Go on, you deserve it ' reply I was looking for.

Well, I admit that I did hesitate for a moment or two before pulling the lever. It comes out to $25 per album...not too bad compared to other limited releases. Now it's just the waiting...

They could have released a killer 1969 show to go along with it.

HappyWill - yes, I would buy it in a shot if it was available from a UK outlet, without all the taxes, postage, VAT etc. added on.

And thinking about it, I'm not sure how often I would play all these L.P.s if I did buy it. I don't see myself as a collector - I just buy what I think I will like listening to - which includes a lot of limited editions. But the reason I get them is because I think I will like listening - not because they are limited editions.

Lovely set, no doubt. Too rich for this boy’s blood though. Besides, I’m somewhat the heathen and given these shows are already out there in the wild, I have little envy in leaving this one to the completists and audiophiles. I sincerely hope you (they) whoever you (they) are appreciate my generosity! ;-)

However the announcement has given me the prompt to dip digitally into the Lyceum concerts - listening in a light Covid haze - and the tracks I have played so far are stunning.

A couple of years ago I often walked passed the Lyceum as I worked not far from there and rued the fact that I wasn’t really aware of the Dead until the Radio Luxembourg 208 show, and first my proper gig was still a month away.

An observation: I would expect the vinyl set to be the “loss lead” in this package - sensibly priced, especially considering your target audience has it in one form or another, already. Nice packaging, great book included. The REAL money will be in the add ons, the $80 (!) jazzy shorts, etc. But $500+++ for the vinyl set??? Either this is the most brilliant selling strategy this site has seen, or it becomes the white whale of Dead.net, gathering dust along with last season’s “Dead gardening gear”.

That is $500+++, and oxygen is NOT included.

As of yet there isn’t a copy on eBay - will someone try $1800 😁. I’m still recovering from Dave’s Picks Vol.1 on vinyl selling out so quickly.

Actually, as has been pointed out, the cost per disc is pretty fair, assuming it is being pressed at a good location, just hope it’s not this side of the pond 😂. But hell the postage. tax and import duty will hurt.

So let me get this straight. I purchased the entire tour on CD 10 years ago for $300. Now I get to pay $550 for 4 shows on vinyl. Uhh . . . . . . nope.

$80 for shorts? Come on guys.

Like just about everyone else, my jaw is dropping at the price of the vinyl set. I’d love to have it, but there’s no way I can justify $600. The only way this if a) somebody really really nice and generous wants to give me an incredibly awesome Xmas gift or b) if the set doesn’t sell, and at some point it becomes available in the Bezosphere for about half price.

Sadly, I did NOT buy the ’72 suitcase when it came out, and the only Lyceum show I own is the 5-26 finale (a GOAT show, IMO), so it’s probably worth it to get the FLAC version, which should be the best possibly sound anyway. Glad TPTB are making that option available, along with some other less costly CD subsets. (Weird, to me anyway, that the newest CD version of Europe ’72 costs more, does not include the bonus tracks, and does not appear to have been remastered over the previous CD reissue.)

$80 shorts? $100 poster? $549 vinyl set? There must be some really rich Heads out there, is all I can say.

Just musing that if this is successful, and World War 3 has been averted, and the Ukrainian people have their country back, we will get the Complete Winterland 1973 on vinyl.

But then my carbon conscience might be in full flight by then…

To me, the crown jewel of the E72 tour is the 5/3 Paris show. At least that is the one I would purchase on vinyl. I passed because I thoroughly enjoy listening to that Other One all the way through. Uninterrupted.

Unfortunately on that release, it was split up onto three different album sides. No way did I want to deal with the hassle of flipping mid song. I don't care how good the sounds is. Same goes for these shows. The Dark Stars and Other Ones are on multiple album sides. Just me, but no thanks.

Not going to be going to any D&C shows this year so probably a wash. Lot of vinyl released in last year or so. From a price point for me, nothing beats the year of Boxzilla between that and the E72 All Music Edition the high bar was set. I was shutout from the original E72 Trunk.

Hopefully there won't be another megabox this year.

So it looks like they're the same 2011 digital mixes transferred to vinyl masters, as opposed to new analog remasters. Kinda' disappointing release. Might use the money to get 6 pair of them Sweat Shorts though("perfect for leisure and lounge" hard to resist.)

Can I get in on this? I won’t tell if you guys won’t tell! Just got the Phish giant box set! Now this! I’m thinking retirement money as well ha poor house more like it vinyl rich dirt poor! Only live once sorry honey in advance.

Lyceum....wow...memories there. I still think these shows, and Europe '72 were Dead at their best, but then I might be biased, I was there, three shows in all. The first night at Wembley was almost a religious experience, and then I immediately bought tickets for the first Lyceum show. That was great too. BUT ! I was working for The Beatles Apple Records at the time, everyone in the London music business knew each other and there were always invitations and free tickets for everything, so when one of their drivers asked if anyone wanted to go to see the Dead on the Friday I jumped at that too. This time it was an invite to the backstage and I had to ask at the stage door. As soon as I was let in I was told to "...quick, lick my hand" and I did. Just as well it was Friday and I did not have to work the next day, they played until sometime around 3 in the morning, I got a taxi home and carried on tripping through Saturday. Yes, they were great shows, but with the added bonus that somehow that last night was permanently burned into my brain. I still play the CDs often, but I agree with the above comments, Dark Star and The Other One across separate sides of vinyl would be an annoyance. Plus I dare not ask what shipping cost to Australia (where I now live) would total.

I came seconds away from pulling the trigger but no. PayPal spaced and by the time I got back in the moment passed. I am a collector in general and vinyl in specific. This is the release I plan to use to re-evaluate what is necessary. On the other hand I snagged Are You Experienced UHQR. Priorities lol. As Cousans… pointed out a digital issue analogically isn’t my idea of a reason to buy vinyl ✌️

Oh I want the vinyl box. And will probably get it, but for the first time in years it’s not a given. I already have the steamer trunk. And the timing. Sheesh. I just spent way more than I care to admit on Dead/Co Summer Tour tickets two days ago… now this. But I do want it.

Do they know where this 24 Vinyl Box is being pressed and who cut the lacquer? From my Dead Paris May/72 Record Store Day release - It says lacquer cut at Bernie Grundman Mastering by Chris Bellman and pressed at Optimal media in Germany. Hopefully in poly lined sleeves as well - same question applies to forthcoming Dead Europe 72 Apr RSD release. For this price, I would like to know - hopefully they post this info, before it sells out. Thanks

Chris, Dogon - no, I wouldn't say you were biased - I wasn't there, but I've listened to most of the shows every year since the trunk came out, and they always sound great to me. Better than the ones I went to, that's for sure! Although of course I enjoyed them too, at the time.

I'm not sure about these vinyl re-issues though. I think I'll get the Wembley show on RSD on vinyl and leave it at that.

It occurred to me this morning - if they were going to release something as lavish and expensive as this, wouldn't it have been better to do it with shows that haven't already come out? Like from Fall 1972, for example.

I understand about why make and sell shows that have already been released when there is so much yet to come.

I think the plan is to release all 22 Europe shows on vinyl come hell or high water. (they've only release two that way, right? They've done Olympia, this one and the one off with only a dark star)

Just like the Dicks Picks, I think they will all see the vinyl pressing mill. (I keep buying them anyway in hopes all 36 will make the cut)

They did/are doing the fillmore 69 stuff.

I think they got these great recordings and they will squeeze them until drained.

Also they are limited, so they should all sell.

You are not alone!!! Holy Cow! How can a pair of sweat shorts possible cost $80???

As for the big vinyl box - I am going to pass. A few years ago I might have jumped, but I know myself and my limited storage much better these days.

I hope those who do buy the box it love it, and that those shorts make you feel 80-bucks worth of groovy!

(I did get the slip mat - I really like the artwork, especially the garden maze design.)

Just a shout out to Auston Matthews, who now holds the record for most goals in a season for an American born player in the NHL (56 and counting), but he also now holds the record for most goals by a Toronto Maple Leaf, a franchise that is 100+ years old! This guy is one of The Best I have seen in 60+ years of following the sport.

Oro, Angry Jack Straw - Sorry about the Sabres. A dubious record - 11 years and no playoffs! Yikes! (There is “Help On The Way”)

As for this collection, how awesome to lay this 24 disc beauty out for friends when they drop by, but a tad price prohibitive. I agree with Otis, the artwork is extraordinary, as it usually is when an official release hits the site, but I cannot justify in this dimension paying $80 for a pair of shorts, never mind the other swag. This is great for those that want to pony up for this collection, it is special, but maybe the Rhino team can take the pricing out of Park Place range, and settle for Baltic Avenue, where the true fans live.
