As was mentioned earlier, we are all in the same boat. Ship of fools, per se. Just a few folks need to be tossed overboard.

It's really just the one person who processes anything that is not overtly praise for the 80s as "80s hatred". You're quite right. Two box sets that didn't sell out were discussed. No negativity was leveed upon either in the discussion. There were just simple statements made about what the popular sellers are, which pared down to prehiatus and 1977. As you pointed out, nobody reacted with "I don't understand why people hate 1978". He's done it about other posts too. I recall when RFK came out, a comment was made about poor vocals on one track. It was a completely objective remark about performance quality, and the response this person got (from you know who) was "you must be an 80s 'hater'" From what I've seen, he just can't accept anything except praise for the 80s. It really drags this forum down at times, but that's life I guess. darkstartheotherone, I love your idea, and that WOULD make an awesome album cover, mountains on the moon, with maybe a U.S. flag being planted by a bearded skeleton.

This week it's 6/30/85 - Thats a "destination" Shakedown!

I wouldn't mind a '69 release with Dupree's Diamond Blues, Mountains of the Moon and Doin' That Rag. I'd also like to see a cover design that doesn't involve bearded skeletons. 2 had the raven and the Thelma release had the Alligator with the tracks. Perhaps a depiction of Mountains of the Moon or something.

Don't understand why some folks who typically consider the '80s as their favorite period, constantly refer to hatred, animosity and negativity in their posts. I will agree that many people prefer other periods but I rarely, if ever, see posts actually expressing hatred etc. for '80s shows. Sure many people don't like Brent's voice or his Fisher Price plinky keyboard sound, but there are also plenty of people who really don't like Bobby's slide playing or over-the-top shouting or Donna's wailing but I also don't see people stating that they hate these aspects of the Dead's performances. Is there some deep-rooted paranoia amongst some of the people who prefer the '80s? Hatred is, after all a very strong word. Me, I got nothing against the '80s though it is not my favorite period. I enjoy the RFK '89 box with the exception of a couple of songs and I do not hate that couple, I just don't much enjoy 'em. Life is too short to hate, I reckon. Why waste energy on negativity?

DaP 25 #4908/18000 arrived last week. Gave it the one time through listen. Some nice moments in the first set and a cool Truckin' jam. The signal from Keith's piano definitely clips to saturation at times. Not quite as much finesse from him on this show as compared to May '77. I don't recall the keyboards being as distorted from 11/2, 11/4 or 11/5 '77. It doesn't really detract from the recording on a whole. RFK '89 is a great couple of shows. Don't understand the hatred and negativity towards them by some here. The depth and clarity of those mixes are immaculate. The performances are tight, energetic and spot on, and they're considered the weak shows from that tour by some people (not me). It's been on sale since when, November 10th (2.5 months ago)? Selling 10k-12k units since then is pretty darn good. Personally I think Spring '89 is under-represented and 3/30 and/or 3/31/89 should be a Dave's Pick.
