Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process, but they're always interested in hearing what you'd like to see hit the virtual shelves of the Store. No promises, but you never know...

This topic is for requesting new individual shows. There are also topics for box sets and DVDs.

If you've already requested something in the previous Requests topic, you don't really need to request it again, but hey, if you just can't help yourself...

Indy 6/30/84

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

"I know I have been going crazy with show requests, but I keep stumbling on shows that I think would make great official releases. If anyone is sick of my requests then I will slow it down. Just can't get off 'the wheel' I guess!"

Alpine Valley Music Theater - East Troy, WI 08/08/82
"I know the night before 08/07/82 was featured on Dick's Picks Volume 32, but I think this show 08/08/82 is just as good, maybe even better. I think an official commercial release of this show would make a great companion piece to Dick's Picks Volume 32."

Acoustic Dead

Hello. I am new to Dead.net, not at all new to the Dead. I really enjoy that Reckoning record and would love to find more acoustic Dead. Does anyone have recommendations? Thanks, and sorry if this has been requested more than once.
Enjoy!

Saenger Theatre 1980

Hi, Has there been any thought to a commercial release (Dave's Picks or Road Trips series) of either (or both) of the shows from New Orleans September 18-19, 1980? The Sunday show (9/19) was the single greatest performance of anyone I've ever seen in 50 years of attending rock shows. Phenomenal. That little run was something they squeezed in between the Warfield and Radio City Music Hall runs that produced the Reckoning and Dead Set releases. If I remember correctly, because that tour was being recorded for commercial release, tapers were discouraged from recording, so the only versions I've heard from these shows have been of middling quality at best. Thanks.

Another Hartford Show...

okay i know you released a lot of hartford, ct shows, but i got another one. i might sound bias because i am from and live in ct, but you got to admit the dead always did play well in hartford. this show is hot, and very tight. the setlist is very fine, and they play and sound good. i think it will make a great dave's pick down the road. the show is very complete with a lot of fan favorites. check it out, there are some very good reviews of the show out there. thanks for listening...

What an incredible show. Best concert of the Dead or any other bank I ever saw. I don't udnerstand why Dick's Picks or someone else hasn't turned this into a CD for sale. They were on fire that night and the list is ridiculous. And Levon Helm lead off for them, which was pretty incredible in it's own right.

i know you released a lot of 78 shows, but i stumbled upon this show and it has an amazing smokin 14 minute sugaree to open the show. the rest of the show isn't that bad either, great set of song selection and good sound quality, and i know you love the year 1978, dave...

Starlight 82' or even 85'

Hey Dave,
Call me retarded, but I still can't wrap my head around Philly 84' or W&M 78' being worthy of release. Are you stringing us along to spread out releases for 20 years? What next a Vinnie show 90-95?

Time to get real a majority of your buyers grew up on 80's Dead. C'mon give us the hot stuff! Start with Starlight 82' and make it sound alive, like a Miller mix.

Stop with 78' the year sucks. Worcester 83' may be best show of year, but what an awful mix. How about 2nd best show of sucking year 83'?

Are you catering to Tour Heads or just fooling us. If you need help picking shows I am available.

Starlight 82' instead of another throw away release.

Also this B,.S. about I don't care about Set lists, I care how they play. Well Merryweather 84' beats the heck out of Philly 84'.

Dave, are you an actual Head or just a talking head?

Re: Garcia's Wake... (reply to a 11/2011 post)

S, I have it all on a box set if interested. It's been 4 years since you posted the request...so you may have it or it may already have been released. Hit me back if you still are interested. GarchiaPet

Frost

Just missed The Frost. Heard it was a very cool place to experience a Grateful Dead show. Similar to The Greek. Caught one of the last Greek shows 89'

Daves picks DEERCREEK

Would love a DEERCREEK release. Only missed one run in nine years. Please.

7-13-81 Denver

Every time I listen, I realize I forgot how GREAT a show this was!!! The scarlet/fire was yeah!!!!

81 Scar/Fire

Want to hear another great Scar/Fire from 81? MSG 3/10/81 I hope for a 3/9 & 3/10/81 2-show release as this was one HOT visit to NYC ! The energy from the stage had clearly spread to the floor... iGrateful

5-19-1974 Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR

Portland is my favorite city, and has been home for 10 years now. I am very interested in The Dead's history of playing here. I bought the digital download of a show which I think was in '68 or '69 in Portland, but would like to know of more shows here and listen to them. This show also looks like it had a good setlist. No idea how the playing was that night, however. If it's good quality, would make for an excellent Dave's Picks.

Hope Dave's Picks Will Remember the 80's and 90's Happened

Dave's Picks has been an almost exclusively 1970's series (albeit with a toe dips into 1969 and 1980). Hope this is not heresy but I have kind of had enough. '72 and '77 WERE REALLY GOOD. Check! Got it. The Spring of 1990 was definitely not the only great latter day period. I hope to see some of the great 80's and 90's stuff next year. Thanks.

The Last Ones

How about 'The Last Ones', Winterland October 1974 box set? All shows, complete, CD and DVD/BluRay.Also, time to release 6-14-76 and 6-29-76 on HDCD.

Individual shows

4/1/91 with the Playing from 3/31/91 as filler seeing how the Samson>Eyes is on the 9/25/91 Dick's Picks. 7/2/88 because 7/3/88 is in the box.

'68 through '69

maybe on the whole the sound quality isn't as fine as on many of the early 70s tapes, but the music...oooooh, the music of those days! transcendence. here's hoping for some of the early greats on future remasters. 10/12/68 at the avalon ballroom maybe?

Dec 1971

Love the whole Oct-Dec 71 tour. Would particularly like to see one of the shows from December, where both Keith is nice and prominent in the mix (his piano playing on this tour was awesome), and Pigpen is back with the band as well. Particularly 12/04, 12/05 or 12/15.

80s!!!

80 and 81 i always considered strong years,

YES!!!!!

1987

Something from 1987. Listening to https://archive.org/details/gd87-03-31.fm.miller.21267.sbeok.shnf right now and it sounds damn well on so far...

Utica Memorial Auditorium 3/21/73 & 3/22/73

These shows were excellent. A few weeks after the death of Pig, the set lists were strong and the playing was typical of the spring 73' sound. A lot of Wake material and some beautiful Dark Stars. Dave's Picks 16 was 1 week after these gems. Would really love to see 1 or both shows slated for a release.3/21 has a setlist to rival any other and the Dark Star > Eyes was phenomenal. Any thoughts? Anyone delve into or have experiences with these nights?

Honolulu 1970 Again!

Release was too limited. (Sold out before release day.) How about a hi-res digital download possibility? Thanks.

10/29/77 NIU

Please release this, you Might As Well! Great fall '77 show.

like to see...

I'd be very into a boxed set of Warfield and/or Radio City 1980

Yes! It would be nice to have

Yes! It would be nice to have both shows!

Stanley Theatre

7-17-89

Buckeye Lake 6.11.93

Sweet summer outdoor show.

new Years 72

I'd like to se 12-31-1972 if the reels are in good shape. Not only is this the day I was born but after checking up I was born during the Other One to be exact. Ha...born under a good sign eh? Thanks Ma.

July 13, 1981 - McNichols - Denver Pleazzzz!!

After getting the Scarlet-Fire download from Cornell I had to listen to the 81 Denver again and please please please. I was my girl friends first show and she became a lifelong deadhead.

3-6-81 Stanley Theatre, Pittsburgh

The first set is very good, the second set is spectacular: Samson and Delilah It Must Have Been the Roses Estimated Prophet Franklin's Tower drums The Other One Stella Blue Sugar Magnolia This Stella Blue is my all-time favorite. It is diaphanous in the literal sense of being light, delicate and translucent. It takes a while for Jerry to solo his way out of a really powerful TOO (featuring a few Phil bombs) and transition into SB with a few clunkers on the way, but they only make it all the more wondrous when he finally gets there so plaintive it sends shivers up my spine. Even if you don't release it, give it a listen. You'll be glad you did. Why not do a Stanley Theatre box of 11-30-79, 12-01-79, 3-5-81 and 3-6-81? I can personally attest to their exceptional quality 'cause I was there for three of 'em and I've got a pristine 12-01-79 on cassette.

1978 Road Trips style releases

For Jan. '78, Nov. and Dec '78. All contain segments of quite fantastic and unique playing. See: 1-13-78 Dancin' thru Wharf Rat, 1-15-78 Terrapin>Playing in the Band. I have to delve deeper into November, but Dave has played cool examples on JOTW and Taper's (11-18). As for December, I really like the run from 12-12 thru 12-19. Not sure what kind of board sources exist for some of these tapes, as 1-15 and 12-16 I have only seen as audience tapes I think.

Unheard shows

I'd really be curious to know if there's anything left in the Vault that isn't available - even in low quality - online (legally). Are there hidden shows from '66, for instance? Or do we basically know all that was recorded and are now waiting for official releases so that we get high(er) quality versions of shows we may already own?

Dave - More 80s shows

Hey Dave, we ran some analytics on GD releases, where are the 80's??!! Check out posts http://www.eightiesgratefuldead.com/ Tell us what you think, what are your favorite 80s shows, and come together to celebrate a rockin decade.

Bloomington Mn

Either 88 or 89 would be fine with me.I personally only saw 6 or 8 shows in the 80s. All were really good except Minneapolis 1986 in metrodome. PS..interesting analysis in your link. Marketers might say the 70s are over penetrated, economists might just point to demand-driven availability.

Oxford Maine

Oxford plains speedway track 2nd, 3rd July Maine 1988Best Crazy Fngers

criteria for releases

Seems like it should fall around the following: 1. Is there a complete, high-quality version in the vault? 2. Does the show already circulate in high quality? 3. Was there something exceptional about the show compared to others in the same time period? 4. Has this time period already been well represented in the stream of releases, or is it lacking? Certainly some time periods will merit a larger number of releases. 5. From a sales standpoint, is there a perceived desire for a particular release? This one gets rather subjective.

Later Show

I wish they would release a few shows from 94/95. At the very least a 3 disc compilation from the last year of the band.

gypsydog

94 and 95 were included in 30 Trips.Some people broke up the box and sold the shows individually. Supposedly the late 90’s were the worst sellers. So, you may be able to find those shows on eBay or elsewhere for a good price. But, what about Gainesville?

6/3/76 Portland

Would be wonderful in exceptional quality. Pacific Northwest Box is my favorite - exceptional shows and audio quality.

Test comment

it appears

to have worked...

Dave's Picks

I'd like to see virtual versions of Dave's Picks ,for instance release the 2017 Dave's Picks virtual this year (say at Christmas time) then release 2018 disc around Christmas 2019 or a year after the cd's so people that have subscriptions and or buy the actual disc have exclusivity for a year, starting with the 1st year of course :)

12/6/73

12/6/73 Cleveland..cruel that the only way to get this is to buy the bonus cd from 2011 road trips for hundreds of dollars..This must be released in full :)

How about UC Santa Barbara…

How about UC Santa Barbara from 1974!!! Whoo hoo! Great Wall of Sound show! Very hot! Kind of country and laid back, but hot as hell!

3-9-81

Normanized

All 80's

85 to 86 were my favourite

Show I wanna see on cds

Sacramento 1-17-78 and Stockton 1-18-78
Sacramento 6-29-79 and Sacramento 6-9 and 6-10 84

RFK Stadium 6/10/73

I don't understand why they didn't realease "June '73" instead of "Pacific Northwest '73-'74". RFK 6/9-10/73 along with the West Coast shows starting in Vancouver on the 22. Would have been much mo betta.

Second Half of 1970

Having grown up taping shows in California in the early 70s, it has struck me for a long time how empty the discography is (Dick's & Dave's Picks, and other releases) for the second half of 1970. Nothing after 5/15/70. And this has some of the most amazing music the Dead played.

Yes, I know that many legendary shows (ex. Capitol Theater, Rochester, etc) only exist in audience, but there are a lot of soundboards - at least of which are complete. Others could be put together for a release - ex. 9/18,19,20/1970...
We have other stretches of time with many releases (spring 77) and they are good ones, but this key era in the Dead's musical history is sadly missing big time.

Top 3 Dave's dreams

11/19/72 Hofheinz round 2, with Dark Star with Philo Stomp. If not slated for possible inclusion in a box, would love to see this be DaP 33.

2/9/73, how has this not been released?

8/4/76, see previous note. Really wanna see this be the next 1976 release. An amazing performance that is hotter than most of the more laid back June and July shows. The Help Slip Frank is an all timer, up there with Buffalo for sure. The existing recordings have the best Phil sound I think I've ever heard, and he has an amazing night thundering along.
