date confusion???(what else do you expect from a '67 show)

There s some questioning on deadessays.blogspot about whether the npc and alligator>caution is from 11/10 or 11/11. Those crazy 67 shows, no one has any idea about what's what it seems. I'm just glad we have more official 67, that is like the most confusing year in dead history but it's probably my fav. Even over 73 or 70. But that's me I like the mystery behind 67 and also the lack of history. It kinda sums up the whole "if you lived the 60s and remember it you didn't live the 60s" cliche. If I ever see this vinyl in real life I'll probably guilt trip myself into getting(like I did dp4)it otherwise I'm cool. I can't remember who but someone(actually 2 people)broke down the releases by year and I'm gonna throw a jab at you 80s and 90s people, which don't get me wrong I love too, so forgive me, 67 was the most under represented year. So until 67 gets a box quit your complaining. Just having fun don't attack me lol. In conclusion I just wanted to point out the 11/10 vs. 11/11 thing on alligator plus say some other silly things apparently. Peace, pot & microdot =)

P.S.

P.S. Not sure if I'm going to get a copy or not. It's expensive, but it's probably worth it, it you have the money.

Lookin' good

I agree that, seeing it online, the album cover looks really nice. I bet the LP sounds great too.

Yes it is really nice

Despite my comments about prices in the UK it is a really nice release and sounds great - I didn't go for the 30 years box set so cannot provide a sonic comparison...but in my humble opinion good records still outshine CD's and while hi-rez dowloads close the gap sonically I still prefer records

Beautiful Artwork

I was in a Barnes and Noble over the weekend and found a copy of this. I didn't buy it but I was excited to hold it in my hands and inspect it. It's a gorgeous piece of art in my opinion. Seeing it on the internet doesn't really do it justice. I see stuff like this as a collectible. Like was mentioned further down if you want to just hear the music it's easily attainable in one form or another. This is something for the serious collector. I for one am glad that products like this are still being made. As more and more music stores close down and the joy of shopping for music in person is slowly taken away it's refreshing that stuff like this is still out there. Still can't understand why anyone would ever complain about any Dead release in any form. It's all treasure to me. I buy what I want and leave the rest for someone else. Like a box of rain!

Wow

Like I said too bad they COULDN'T invest in a record plant. Key words, INVEST and COULDN'T. Never said it would be an easy venture. Well aware of the difficulties. Having said that, records are being pressed in the strangest places, and with a hell of a lot less capital, know how and connections in the music production industry. New presses are being manufactured. People and businesses are investing in vinyl and its production. Read up on Josey records or Jack White's record label. Vinyl sales are increasing every year. Since it is a dying art, and vinyl is making a nice comeback, it would make sense to take advantage of the situation, find a press or two, and go from there. Doesn't have to be massive scale. Anyways, yeah definitely a huge task, but not a bad investment, nor is it much of a risk, not considering the demand there is for vinyl now.

Open a new pressing plant?

It's not as simple as just "opening" a pressing plant. Opening such a plant is incredibly, incredibly expensive. Nevermind that good equipment is exceptionally rare, and prohibitively expensive and time consuming to build. And then you have to factor in the guys who actually cut the masters. That in itself is a lost art. All those guys are going deaf, blind, and dead with few young guys to replace them. Investing all that money without a guarantee of quality product is a bad investment. I agree that more plants should be opening to lessen the bottleneck, but it's a massive risk to take. For everyone complaining about the price, it's worth noting there are copies on discogs & ebay for less than what dead.net is charging. Savings aren't massive, but $10 is $10 ...

Well that't too bad...

...If the plan really is to charge more than double what is already a steep price for a 4 disc set. Too bad the GD productions couldn't invest in a record plant. Might reduce costs and maybe make MORE shows available on vinyl! I'm sure it would pay for itself after 3-4 pressings. Could really open up the band's repertoire. Would love to see a reissue of Bob's "Ace". With respects to pricing, from what I've been seeing here (Canada), it's not just Dead related stuff. I'm seeing a lot of very unreasonable pricing for vinyl re-issues. Single disc stuff for $28-32 US! Maybe the huge jump in turntable sales last year will have a positive effect on pricing. Then again, it's the same people that maintained cd prices so high for such a long time that are pulling the strings with vinyl. One thing is for sure. The narrow minded music execs have managed to increase the value of record shop's used stash all around the world.

The record shop in question is an honourable one and is very straight and resonable with prices. As for high priced High Quality vinyl - I am realy pleased that the Dead are doing vinyl re-issues and am happy to pay the going rate for HQ re-issues - I also know I can walk away and not buy - freedom of choice - but then I also think it is fair to make my observation that the recent Dead Vinyl re-issues are more highly priced than most.

The Pricing Isuue

Splurge, I made my mind up to hold back from the vinyl purchases a few days ago, a record retailer I have done business with does not bother stocking some of this over priced vinyl as he can,t add enough markup on it himself, and take the risk of not selling it for months. It is down to personal choice, it's buyers who are willing to pay the high prices that perpetuate the ever rising costs. Just look at ebay someone recently spent £200+ on a Dave's Picks Vol 1, unsealed and used, you can listen to this on the internet archive for considerably less. Well, that's my gripe of the day is done with. Rock N Roll.

Really need digital or at least CD

Please, please, please for those of us that don't bother with vinyl. Vinyl is highly overrated...

perhaps a bit overpriced but not overrated

I agree with you that this should be available for download. I grew up on vinyl where you held that 12 by 12 piece of art gatefold cover in your hand as you listened to the music. Pre MTV/youtube, only in your imagination could you visualize what the band looked like while performing. Wondering how did they make this record, what exactly were they doing? (especially if you played an instrument). Your imagination ran wild and you had a connection. So for that reason I still get a kick out of vinyl, as well as that warm sound off the needle. Not yet 50 but I'm feeling old writing this...

Its offered in 3 formats, as of today

Vinyl 30 Trips CD and USB probably can score the cd online a la carte for under $50, however there is no individual download

shrine auditorium

Really i agree,A halfway decent cd player is more then enough.

ALL ANALOG

I'm curious if this 3LP set is mastered directly from the analog masters?

JeffGodoy..what value are you adding???

Whats with you people with an agenda against vinyl...geez...get off it already, what do you care who/what/why people enjoy vinyl. You want to argue the value between hardcover book vs paperback vs digital editions... or how about watercolor vs acrylic??? ....who cares???? Your vinyl experience may be overrated, as there are some poor representations, however my AAA vinyl is FAR superior in my home. example... Why Clapton do his new album mastered in all analog (AAA) ??? Then master it separately for digital? I'm not pro-this or anti-that...But I believe most formats, without compression and mastered accordingly to the format have the ability to sound great. My digital library trumps my vinyl library about 4:1, however, I have much more fun playing an album, as digital format for me is all about convenience... if your comment is not adding value, why do you feel compelled to post it?
