    Storage-
    I have 2 400 CD carousel players from Sony (Also a 400 DVD carousel) They are cheap when you compare the price and compactness to and speed of access to other storage options. However, I have moved most of my music to my computer, and am deciding on how to arrange it there. Right now it is but Album name but I am putting in the comments the data field in 19700404 format (Family dog) to be able to do a chronological sort.

    I've been using these little guys for the time being... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Goodies+-+Foldable+CD+Storage+Box+-+Black/9… they work well, but I may need another storage idea as I will probably be buying tons and tons of these boxes for my shows. I use the slim jewel cases and I'll type up the setlist, venue, date and source info on those CD templates in Microsoft word and Open-Office that you can print out. The only problem is it can be costly with printer ink, not to mention it can take a while sitting in front of the computer typing them out. I may change to paper sleeves and just writing the info on the back by hand....all in all though me and my buddies came up with a saying: "It's for the Vault!" From the previous posts, I too have wondered if dead.net will be restocking any of the Dick Picks because prices on amazon and elsewhere are pretty crazy. I've been wanting to get Dicks Picks 19 and they have the lowest price close to $50 on Amazon. A Dicks Picks CD package would be terrific!!!

    Yet it is organized enough for me to be able to find what I need fairly easily. The shows are listed in Excel. My main "library" consists of several hard drives filled with shn/flac. When I want to listen to something I can either move the files to iTunes for iPod listening or I'll convert to wav and burn CD's. I gave up trying to store the CD's all nicely in jewel cases since frankly I ran out of room!! Now when I purchase a reel of CD's and/or DVD's I keep the empty reel (they empty quickly =) and store burned CD's in those. You can hold over 100 CD's per reel. So far, a couple of reels per decade has been working out. If I convert a shn of flac to wav or mp3 I note that in my Excel spreadsheet so I do not do any repeat burnings. It works for me!!

    CD collection
    got one wall unit that holds close to 900 - Stones/Zeppelin/Hendrix/Dylan fill up the top two shelves(clapton bands and the who fill up the 3rd row) as mentioned below - the dead collection exploded so I cant keep them anywhere but in a box haha (a nice box tho - CDs fit 3 wide) - a couple other racks that hold ~200 - one filled nearly by just female artist.... no way I give up my jewel cases tho - I even try to hang onto the stickers that they put on the cellophane - remember the long (cardboard) box CDs used to come in? - I got an old Jack Daniels case full of them. Not the common box but the ones with nice artwork. If you think I'm a pack-rat - guilty.

    Oh, if you are talking about storage, I switch over to sleeves a while back. If you are a serious collector, you listen on CD, and you don't have a lot of space, you have to switch from jewel cases to sleeves. I have my entire collection (over a 1000 shows if you count JGB and related configurations) in a library card catalogue-style cabinet. The link will take you to what I have: http://www.spinkeeper.com/chfilide.html I don't know if that is where I got it from. It says it holds about 450 CDs, but if you use sleeves rather than the jewel cases, it must hold at least 2000 CDs, if not more. It is getting pretty full though :)

    is whatever happens to work for you. It's your "file," right? So it only has to work for you. I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised to find that someone who requires a little adventure in their music might completely eschew the notion of any "system" at all. Nothing like blindly sticking your hand into the pile and seeing what fate has in store for you right now. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    Sorry dstache, I should perhaps have asked how other people "store" their C.D's. i.e on their shelves or C.D. racks. I have tried various options but as SimonT states sometimes the problem is the different sizes of the boxes which often makes things look untidy. I suppose I was just thinking out koud but nice to hear other viewpoints.

    my GD CDs
    are all in one box (another box of Jerry and related dead CDs)I have the Picks sorted by volume - I maybe missing one or two - plus the fact that 2 or 3 are only in digital on my computer as for all the live dead albums/shows I have on my computer I basically have folders based on the year recorded. this is a work in progress with my recent additions from the archives and vines.

    I ponder how to file and have changed the shelves over the years, but here's how they now stack: The studio CDs are together, then Dick's Picks in chronological order. The Road Trips are together in order of release date as I tend to listen to most recent first .... then a big shelf has all the main releases chronologically. My logic is this. The size and style of the releases all differ, and being a former storeman I like things to look 'ordered' - and there's something magic about seeing a row of DPs and Road Trips all happily living side by side. This does mean that particular eras are not together, but I tend to play more decent purchases and so Road Trips are now in their own section.

RE: DP # 1: it is still available for download. The price for FLAC is $19.49, which seems pretty high for a 2-disc set. Compare that to the 3-disc DP # 18, whose price for a FLAC download is $15.99. What is even weirder is that the MP3 price for DP # 18 is $23.99, $8 MORE than the FLAC price. That doesn't make any sense. Needless to say, spending 1/2 hr and learning how to use Trader's Little Helper is a great investment and will save you $8 on a DP # 18 download (buy the FLAC, convert to WAV using TLH, copy to I-Tunes). I'd like to say that they are trying to be like netflix and encouraging us to buy downloads rather than physical products, but I don't think that is it. The current series, Road Trips, is not even available for download. I don't know what is going on or what the plan is.

I saw they sold out on the site. I found an inexpensive copy on cd from a competitor. Still filling in blanks in the collection but I'm not interested in downloading official releases. I want the real deal hard copy. Downloading Further and Ratdog boards is something altogether and I'm willing to pay for good Flacs on these. Official releases I want the package delivered with care and with all the covers and liners that belong to the release. If they force the whole download thing I'm done. I already have tons of terra bytes of legal music butI'd I'm buying something I want that extra care. Remember, the long walk is part of the gift. In this case I am paying for the gift.

I'd like to know opinions about this Road Trip, Denver '73...don't know if it's worth buying it (or if I'd better choose another one: I bought - in the Road Trips series, Austin '71, April Fool's '88, Rock Pow Wow '69, Fillmore East '70).My favourite Dead's year it's 72 (and maybe I'll buy DP Jersey City '72 together with it..), don't know anything about '73.. Would you like to help me, please?

I'll go out on a limb and say Denver 73 is the best RT release so far. It's a great recording of a great performance. Disc 2 is pretty awesome all by itself.

http://www.deaddisc.com/GDFD_Grateful_Dead.htm Denver '73 is outstanding, as mentioned by cbs73. Do check the release anthology, above, to read info on a bunch of music. DP's 1, 14, 19 and 28 give you a good taste of 1973. From '72, DP's 11, 23, 30 & 36 are very good. Steppin' Out, Rockin' the Rhein and Hundred Year Hall all feature terrific music from the Europe '72 tour. DP's 7, 12, 31 and RT 2.3 feature great shows from 1974. The differences from 1972 into 1973 and 1974 are amazing, following the new tunes released on Wake of the Flood and Mars Hotel.

Yeah, you can't go wrong with Denver 73- but if you prefer long spacy jamming, I recommend DP14. It's 4 discs and has 2 full blown PITB's and a great Dark Star. It's my favorite release from 1973. All the Dicks Picks from 1972 are pure gold, too.

Since hearing that the DP's might be vanishing from the store, I've purchased quite a few DP's recently. DP14 is one of those. Get #14 while you still can. You will not be sorry.Please bring back DP33. I would really like to purchse this. There is very little released 76 out there and this one should be made available. On second thought, bring them all back.

Wow, DP 19 (October 19, 1973) seems to be gone also. One of my favorite DP's. Glad I got that a few years ago. I guess the DP's aren't selling with everyone waiting for the 72 box set due out next month.

This is the first time for me on the forum so i thought i'd better make it count:I've read today that Real Gone Music (a label specialising in music thought to be 'real gone') will reissue the Dick's Picks series. They will start in November with 12 titles (according to their site), headlined by 3 stunners from the series (DP:34, 35 and 36). For real: check realgonemusic.com I know what to do and so do you guys, i can't be the only one still looking for volume 34. By the way, when on the Real Gone Music site please drop a suggestion in the designated box. Fillmore West 1969 Complete Recordings anyone? Come on let's make it happen, it's the right thing to do!

Real Gone Music will debut in November with 12 titles headlined by the Grateful Dead’s Dick’s Picks, Vols. 34, 35 & 36. “Dick” was Dick Latvala, the official tape archivist for the Dead until 1999, whose inspiration and encyclopedic knowledge of the band’s vaults spawned the fabled Dick’s Picks series of Dead concert volumes. Comprising 36 volumes, Dick’s Picks follows the band on its long, strange trip through a multitude of eras, tours and venues, featuring handpicked shows that display the band at its most visionary, improvisational height. Real Gone Music will bring this cache of Dead concert brilliance to record stores. Many have never been previously available at retail.~~~~~~~~~~~~ REAL GONE NOVEMBER 2011 RELEASE SCHEDULE NOVEMBER 8 GRATEFUL DEAD: Dick's Picks Vol. 34-Rochester, NY 11/5/77 3-CD SET GRATEFUL DEAD: Dick's Picks Vol. 35-"San Diego, CA 8/7/71, Chicago, IL 8/24/71 4-CD SET GRATEFUL DEAD: Dick's Picks Vol. 36-"The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA 9/21/72 4-CD SET Real Gone's release of the Grateful Dead titles represents the first time these handpicked collections of live shows have been released to retail stores.

And these are disappearing fast from the Dead.net store. Some that appear for sale are in fact gone. Try adding some of the DP's to the cart. You will get a message that it is not longer in stock (a few still listed do this).

E72 turned into a fantastic clusterfuck for a large minority of buyers. Massive problems from start to finish with all the usual ones in between. You guys need to have a meeting and say: "Hey, Look, We have to bite the bullet on this one and take responsibility for the screw-ups." And they are all screw-ups from the side of the product materials control. The only people who are happy are the ones who got flawless sets and don't mind all those torn cardboard pieces of crap you call sleeves. What could Rhino do? Do another press run of Road Trips quality covers, or, even better, plastic cases and set a complete send out to everybody who ordered along with the replacement discs (for those who have defective ones). Do it NOW. ASAP! What is your alternative? Wait for a waterfall of credit card disputes that costs Rhino $15 a piece besides whatever they have to do to fix it? Maybe the bean counters should look at this one and say. "It's a no-win situation, refund the money for those who are complaining and keep it from those who don't. Maybe it'll be a wash. But wouldn't it be great if they did the entirely RIGHT thing? It's like there are competent people and not so much working at Rhino and you never know what kind of job they are going to do. Maddening! .

I'm with you lamagonzo. Hopefully Rhino is planing to do the right thing. Start by hiring a new Quility Control Dept, because the current employees did not do their job with the Europe'72 Complete Recordings Steamer Trunk . Too many corners were cut. Start by sending out replacement CDs and better sleeves to the people that reported problems, now not next year.

I noticed Dick's Picks 32 is available for pre -order on Amazon now. About $40. It isn't cheap but then again it is when you consider what a copy has been going for from Amazon Re -sellers and EBay sellers. I haven't checked to see if 31 and 33 are also reissued in this batch. I only needed DP 32 to complete the series.

C'mon guys it's time.

I know '94 is not well represented on my list. It does not mean that '94 is not worthy of another single release in my opinion. All good things in all good time (I hope).

So, anyone received their Dave's Picks? And, for goodness sake, who is the boob at Rhino that went with Dave's Picks instead of Dave's Faves? I know it isn't proper English, but at least it rhymes. Dick's Picks, Dave's Faves. Dick's Faves sounds dumb, as does Dave's Picks.

Just downloaded Dick's Picks 36 from ITunes - there's a noticeable hiss in background. It's most noticeable hiss of handful of Dick's Picks I have - is it the release or maybe an issue with the download?

Speaking of the Box of Rain and Searching for the Sound, does anyone here actually have that bonus disc. I got someone trying to sell me one (with the book), but the CD doesn't have anything printed on it. Is that legit or not? I don't want to pay for a copy. Sorry if this is the wrong place for a question like that, but I did very much want to get the Box of Rain from Soldier Field '95 on something. Last GD tune ever.

How about this: Everyhing that is out there that has been released and is in stock. Yeah, sure. There would be a lot of repeats to gift away but so what? If they just made Fillmore 69 and the entire Didck's/Dave's Picks and Road Trips a part of the package it would be worth it. Oh yeah, all picks would have to be hand-checked three times for flaws. This package would include everything: Discs, tapes, downloads, vinyl, dvds, -- the whole enchilada. Sort of like cleaning up the shelves. Think about it. I think this would sell out and make room for the latest and greatest,

Hey Now! Happy Independence Day! I recently came into a little bit of cash & was hoping to extend my live Dead collection. I have never purchased a Dick's Pick, but was looking at some of them in the Dead.net Store. Here is my question to all you Dead Heads out there: If you all of a sudden had some money to spend, and did not have any already, which 5 Dick's Picks would you invest in for certain? Thanks in advance, Angel Lawrence, KS

Taking into consideration my listening tastes and trying to provide SOME variety, I'd suggest any 5 of the following 6: Vol 29 (5/19,21/77), Vol 26 (4/26,27/69), Vol 23 (9/17/72), Vol 18 (2/3,5/78), Vol 14 (11/30,12/2/73) and Vol 12 (6/26,28/74). I'm sure 99 others would give 99 different answers. You can't go wrong with any of the Sept 72, Fall 73, 74 or 77 releases. And 70 & 71 are darn good years too (just not my absolute favorites). WOH, wait, I forgot about Vol 10 (12/29/77)!!!

With an unexpected windfall I'd probably go with: 10 (12/29/77), 14 (11/30-12/2/73), 15 (9/3/77), 25 (5/10-5-11-78), 28 (2-26-2-28/73). There you go...ask me tomorrow ya might get 5 different choices...haha!

sweet deal right now on the originals The Vault Box for $52 - price goes back up after the 8th of July... I've never seen a remastered From the Vault #1 but I assume it exist (anyone have a HDCD copy?)

When I bought The Vault box set, all three of them were in HDCD.

I think on the Rhino site it says why it's the theme...i bought it hook line and sinker they said only 9,000 copies and didn't want to not order and pay over 200$...i think the book and memobilia shoot up the price and let's face it it's for the rich or the very addicted...how much was the 1st limited box set? the 1969 box set? Originally...but the 1990 box set is incomplete and there's already been 3 shows at least released from that tour...dozin at the knicks, Nassau 90, the cardboard one with the turtles on it...so 3 right there...i guess it was a good tour even the dead thought so many years ago...lot of passion and energy in those shows...i think they will be released eventually as seperate show all 6 is what the box set will include, so 6 more shows that are not the previously released shows, the 1972 box set did dupe 2 or 3 shows but it would've left holes if they didn't as the promise was every show in the tour, this is just 6 shows with a good rounded out set list to include as many different songs as possible with great quality as well and i'm sure it was as they were professionally recorded...almost all of the dicks picks sound professional except some really early one's like 1968 and 1970...anyway no notice on here thankfully i got an e-mail and i'm out of 200$ but i made this commitment in 1997 or so...i still say the grateful dead is the best live band ever...maybe there were better bands overall but none were better live at least not on a coutinous basis.

I recall the '69 Fillmore West box being about $70 total with shipping. Like the Europe '72 box, the cost per disc was pretty cheap. Like you, I have found the sound quality of almost every official release to be stellar. I'm sure you'll enjoy the box (all 6 shows are Very Good in my book)!

I'm sorry if this has been discussed at length in these forums (I'm sure it has somewhere) but why is it necessary for all the Dick's Picks/Road Trips/Dave's Picks to be limited edition and, at least for Dick's Picks at this point, largely out of print? It's frustrating considering that we can't all afford to buy every release. If it's about the music, which it is to me, then why not just have these shows available forever? While it's nice to have the occasional numbered set of something I'd still be perfectly happy to just be able to acquire releases when I either can afford them or when I'm in the mood for some Dead I do not yet have. Just my opinion...
