    one my first suggestion I meant to say Dick's pick #4. I just got ahead of myself.

    Well a lot of your descriptions are subjective to the listener. So, with that being said some of my suggestions might not be exactly what you are looking for but here you go: 1. 2-14-70 Dick's Pick TOO and Dark Star are absolutely killer and spacey as hell. 2. the Field Trip 8-27-72. For me this show is a melding of their really psychedelic stuff and the jazzy influence of '73, but there is some great psych-rock here. 3. Fillmore West 1969: the Complete Recordings. If you can get your hands on this box set, you will be set because this is their pinnacle of acid rock and killer stuff. In my opinion 68-through really '71 is the height of their acid era. So if that is what you really want then you can't miss. Once you branch out into late 70's and all the way until the end, you will find a much varied band that can rock-out on any tune on any given night. Not to say they weren't great in the 60's and early 70's (my second favorite year is 1970, after '77), they were--just different and in a good way. Happy hunting!!

    I am a young Deadhead and I have been absorbing every dead show I can get my hands on. Right now I've been borrowing all the live Dead I can from my limited resources, but my hunger is insatiable and growing still. I am looking for suggestions of shows that are extremely spacey/psychedelic/out there. Jams that stretch on and on and take you to another planet, primarily through the instruments and not so much through vocals. Shows that just bleed electric acid vibes through your body and mind and leave you changed. Can anyone give suggestions of particular shows I should seek out?

    always looking to trade
    Wanted: reliable person with copious quality shows (preferably without gaps) on CD who wants to trade. I have a pretty extensive collection, mostly from 70's era, but am always looking to fill some holes (right now the Northwestern 11/1/73 is much desired) and acquire more Brent era Dead. PM with your email and we can exchange lists.

    I am looking for a great sound board copy of this great show. The "Dew" is absolutly amazing--worth while on its own. I have about 250 shows on tape but most don't want tape and I don't have a digital converter (yet). So I guess I will have to do a B&P. If someone is interested, you can contact me at pwyatt30@yahoo.com. Take Care!

    Instead of sending a b&p with blank cds they should just send a blank hard drive.

    Please Help me
    Hi, I would really like to make a serious Dead and JGB collection. I have started about 8 years ago when I was in high school. Yes I am young I am 26. Some people think I am too young to be a Dead Head. But Jerry has really inspired me and made me the man I am today. What I really want is to find a really big database of music I can put on my computer and convert to mp3s or burn to cds.. Youd think that with computers and fast download speeds you could just download gigabites of shows... Archive.org the only thing you can download are audience recordings. I really like sugarmegs but its hard to put in all the tracks for each show. I am using nero and thats not really working well... Does anyone have any ideas?? I would really appreciate. tphuber@gmail.com

    Anyone want my cassettes?
    I have well over 1000 hours of GD, ABB, Springsteen, jazz, SCI, Dylan, etc on tape, and now I have a deck that converts tapes to digital. I don't want to throw all these tapes away - bad for the environment, and a waste of years of meticulously collected music. I'm willing to give these away in bulk, and all you have to do is send postage and SASE - sort of like the old "blanks and postage" deal except you don't even have to send blanks!Just today, I listened to 5/6/89 and 5/4/42. Last night it was fall of 1970 and fall 1973. And I want all this great music to find good homes. I know most of us are digital collectors now, but if you are interested, email me at chip@chipwithrow.com. "Folk rock for groovin families!" myspace.com/chipwithrow chipwithrow.com

Hi there, I don't know if this is the right place for this question but figured someone here would know the answer... I am wondering what the best source for complete Grateful Dead set lists is? A friend used to have the entire Deadbase memorized. It was amazing, you could test him!! I see there is Taper's Compendium as well (volumes 1-3???), and my friend said this is more complete? What say youz? Thanks guys!

Try the Shows & Lyrics section on this page (Look Up). Float your cursor over it, then go to 'Shows by Year', pick a year, then a show. The set list is usually integrated into that show page, or someone has kindly placed it in the comments (thanks hockey_john).

The Deadlist project is also a great resource - posters, handbills and tickets for almost every show as well as setlists...they are amazing there.

As much as the digital age has allowed the old tapes to be cleaned up and made to sound better on cd or through a computer, it does not sound right until it is put onto tape and played through a vintage system with old cabinet speakers. At least that is my preference. That said, I resurrected my tape collection and have been able to acquire a ton of killer tapes. I am looking for blank/templets for j-card inserts. I have hundreds of tapes that need them so I am open to any designs or leads. Thank you, Steve

I also am looking to aquired Jcards so that I can clean up my collection of GD tapes. Does anybody have any info on the JCards that seemed to be mass produced specifically for Dead tapes? They often had "Live Dead" or some variation of that, printed on the spine and a stock photo of either Jerry, Bobby, or Phil on the front. Any info on these types of Jcards, or any other mass produced GD J cards would be very much appreciated.

I would spin them, but the tapes seem to have been lost to the ether! I just checked and I don't have them anymore :-( I have a bunch of other 1993 shows, but that one is missing!

My husband told me to check out a user named brianhahne in order to find old releases at decent prices. There are a couple of Dick's Picks I still need to find (3, 4, 24, 28), as well as the Bay Area Pure Jerry - but not if it costs $300+. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Looking for a resource for trading CD-R. Have done the Vines but I remember a vibrant tape trading network back in the day and want to rebuild my collection. Enjoying 6-20-74 on archive.org right now but the streaming doesn't help in my car or out by the pool. Any help much appreciated. Will trade what I have as well as postage, blanks, etc.

I am desperately trying to get a hold of some dead tapes someone else has made. I know I could go on archive.org and make my own but I really am looking for someone to guide me by sending me tapes of their favorite shows. I'm willing to send blanks and pay postage. I have tremendous respect for the tapers who was there and am asking if anyone would be open to sending me some tapes. It would mean the world to me. Thanks in advance for reading this and considering it. Please PM me if this is something you would be open to.

I am seeking a good quality recording of the 11/30/79 show, Stanley Theatre, Pittsburgh. It was a first date with a life partner and would like to make a Christmas present of it. Archive.org has several SBDs and an great sounding Matrix - for streaming only, of course. I'd like to have a CD copy to give as a gift. Lots to trade if that needs to be part of the deal. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,My close friend, my girlfriend, and I have all become deadheads within the past year. We continue to go deeper and deeper each passing month. I have gotten to point where I am hoping to get some tapes to listen to. If anyone has extra tapes they would like to pass on to a new deadhead to experience please message me. For faster/more convenient response email me at gulatherogress@gmail.com We can work out the arrangements. Thank you very much for your time.

My young daughter has followed her parents’ footsteps and become very into the Dead. She doesn’t have her own computer to throw on shows so tapes would be great for her - I passed on my collection of 400 before she was born. We’d especially love anything with fun fan art / crazy cases / etc. All eras more than welcome! Thanks.

I have at least 400 cassette tapes in my storage unit that I would like to give away for free. They are a combination of soundboards and audience recordings. All periods but heaviest concentration is from the 80's. They are in a state of utter chaos, in a very large and quite heavy plastic storage container. This is way too heavy to ship, so must pickup in person. I live in Big Sur, CA and the storage unit is next to the Monterey Airport. There are certainly a number of excellent audience recordings made by a friend and those are not in circulation. The tapes cases are fun, many decorated, harking back to that time when I was young in the 80's and had loads of time on my hands. PM me if you are interested.

I had an amazing guy from a Dead Facebook group recently gift me many JGB cd’s that were all from tapers and I am OBSESSED with the sound. I mean I’ve been listening to the Dead since I was a little kid but to hear the rawness of this sound just takes it to another level! When they kick into a song and the crowd erupts I can close my eyes and picture myself standing there in person. I’m sure many of you know what I’m talking about and it’s a bit embarrassing I’m so late to the game. If anyone has ANY old tapes I would be happy to work something out. JGB is incredible but I would die to hear some tapes of some Dead shows. If you’d like to email me that would probably be best. Cheers :-) billstiner@gmail.com
