    The unexpected return of the masters of the Grateful Dead's triumphant show at the Albuquerque Civic Auditorium, November 17, 1971, yields great rewards. The Dead came in HOT for their first New Mexico show. Aided by clarity and precision and abetted by confidence and focus, they finessed old standards with definitive takes. With Keith now blending in seamlessly on keys, the first set offered up a triple shot of electric Blues, an exceptional "You Win Again," and a stellar "One More Saturday Night" to wrap things up. And the second set, well, it might just be unlike any you've ever heard. Archivist David Lemieux urges you to turn it up and do it loudly. We won't dare spoil all the surprises, but pay special attention to the rippin' "Sugar Magnolia," the aggressively monstrous "The Other One," and the highly-danceable "Not Fade>GDTRFB>Not Fade." Rounding out the 3CDs, you'll find selections from Pigpen's return tour at Ann Arbor, MI, 12/14/71. Subscribers will get nearly all of the complete show as this year's bonus disc.

    As always, Dave's Picks Volume 26 has been mastered to HDCD specs from the original analog tapes by Jeffrey Norman and is limited to 18,000 individually-numbered copies*.

    Who vs doors
    Hate to rip open the wound but have to weigh in on this. The Who to me is exponentially better than the Doors. It’s not even close. The doors have some good songs ... yes. but most songs I find them generally to be monotonous after the first minute or two. In terms of best super group. I always liked The Who better than zeppelin or stones. But to me, In terms of talent and diversity, the Beatles are the best in a league of their own. Who, zeppelin stones are all a level below. Well, Dylan would be there too with Beatles but he isn’t a “band” per se. But the dead is my favorite and always has been for reasons stated. Though One thing the dead has done that no one else has (that I know). They spawned a unique sub-culture via the dead heads. Yes most bands have a “following” but nothing like the dead and deadheads. In addition, in my opinion the started the jam band genre. And from that they could be next to only Dylan in terms of influence on later generations of music (talking only rock and roll of course). Finally, when u factor in their approach to things like random set lists, giving away their music via taping section, mail order for ticket sales etc .... there is nothing like the dead.

    Attn: KeithFan2112- Re: 8/24 (and 8/23/71)
    KeithFan2112, this is gonna be a lot as I just recently looked into this question (about a month ago) when I was listening to 8/23/71 on archive.org. Here's my review of the show, then further down, what I gathered about the lists for the two nights, 8/23 and 8/24: -- Reviewer: mcgrupp216 - March 16, 2018 Subject: su71 Chicago This is the next available Chicago show after the slate of available 69s: 25-26 April and 4-5 July. I couldn't find audio for 31-1 January/February and can't find audio for the one 1970 Chicago show, played on Black Friday, 27 November. What a difference a couple years in GD history makes, wow! Some confusion on dates and lists, but this show and setlist is indeed 8/23/71. (It is not 8/24, as I've occasionally seen it listed as, which is featured, entire, on Dick's Picks Vol. 35, together with 8/7 from San Diego.) Much of the show is featured on the Summer '71 Road Trips Vol. 1 No. 3, Disc 2, which includes (from set 1) China->Rider and Sugaree and (from set 2) Truckin', Cryptical->drums->o1->me and my uncle->o1->cryprical->wharf rat-, and sugar magnolia. (Disc 1, for those keeping track, features material from New Haven, 7/31, and the "bonus" 3rd disc is from Hollywood CA and San Pedro, respectively played on 8/6 and 8/4.) This show is fantastic. There's of course some bitter irony -- Dylan M. alludes to this -- "the boys" sound so fresh and alive during this show and the summer of '71, at precisely the time Pig Pen's regular standing in the band was being phased out. He would finish out the tour (he's there on 8/24 and 8/26), take a four-month hiatus, returning in December 1971 until June '72, after which he officially retired (last show, 6/17). So the next night, 8/24, would be his final Chicago show. He led vocals on strong versions of It Hurts Me Too, Empty Pages, Big Boss Man, and Good Lovin' and on 8/23 he led on Mr. Charlie, Next Time You See Me, and Big Boss Man. It's nice to hear him backing up on NFA, too. Back to the music: Phil is popping off on lead-bass all show and most of these songs absolutely bounce. 8/24/71 is also fantastic, must-listen '71 dead. I can't find a copy in the archive, but fortunately it's widely available and featured, entire, on Dick's Picks Vol. 35. Show highlights include song debuts of Brown Eyed Women (neat, different, early pilot version) and Empty Pages (new, unfortunately little played Pig Pen tune, would only be played one more time a couple nights later), the high-energy NFA->GDTRFB->NFA medley, and the nearly 12-minute Good Lovin' to close. Four stars for what we get from 8/24 as the "salvageable" parts lack any deep jams. 5 stars for the evening prior, I'd say perhaps on the strength of the night's cryptical suite ending with wharf rat, alone. -- The following setlist from archive.org is confirmed by some discussion I found on "Missing 1970 Shows," a blog entry from the following link: http://deadessays.blogspot.com/2009/08/missing-1970-shows.html. Wrote Light Into Ashes, 19 June 2013: " Per David Lemieux, this is the complete 8/23/71 setlist (* were released) - Set 1 Big RR Blues, Playing In The Band, Mr. Charlie, Sugaree*, El Paso, Next Time You See Me, Bertha, Me and Bobby McGee, Cumberland Blues, Big Boss Man, Loser, Promised Land, China>Rider*, Casey Jones Set 2 Truckin'*, Bird Song, Cryptical>Drums>Other One>Me and My Uncle>Other One>Cryptical>Wharf Rat*, Deal, Brokedown Palace, Sugar Magnolia*, NFA>GDTRFB>NFA>Johnny B. Goode " Finally, as for 8/24, here's more from that blog entry discussion: " And this is the released part of 8/24/71 (according to Lemieux, "all that was salvageable") - Uncle John's Band, Playing In The Band, Loser, Hurts Me Too, Cumberland Blues, Empty Pages, BIODTL, Brown Eyed Women, St Stephen > Not Fade Away > GDTRFB > NFA, Me and Bobby McGee, Big Boss Man, Brokedown Palace, Good Lovin' (The rest of the setlist is not known for sure, but probably includes some of the songs on the "8/23/71" deadbase setlist.) " Hope that helps! PS: btw, if Light Into Ashes (or anyone else) is reading, you must get back in the archive.org. You mentioned there's only incomplete AUD recordings of 8/23 and that a SBD doesn't seem likely to ever circulate. My review is of a really excellent Charlie Miller transfer, uploaded by Matthew Vernon on 20 October 2013. Must-listen!

    Cornell vinyl reissue
    Anyone notice the recently released reissue of the Cornell '77 vinyl? I find it curious that none of the descriptions I read mention it being previously released as a limited edition set. I haven't seen it offered here, and I find it interesting the fact it was originally marketed as a limited release and any explanation for a re-release seems to be swept under a magic carpet. It also leads me to consider the implications. Should I not be in any hurry to grab the Fillmore West RSD vinyl on Saturday because it will be reissued in a few months? I feel slightly duped, and not because I want to have something few others can have. I feel duped because limited edition offerings are strong marketing manipulations to create a sense of urgency. I bite, and I bit, and now it's like, "hey guy, why the hurry? we'll press thousands more after the initial race." All that aside, I am happy that those who did not get the vinyl on the first round will be able to grab a copy if they want. This release sounds great on wax. Update: I did a little more research and confirmed one difference I already suspected. The initial release was 180g vinyl, and the reissue is 140g. The initial is numbered, so I also suspect there may be some difference in the packaging.

    Thanks for the tip
    I have just had a look an amazon.co.uk-I hadn't thought of looking on there for Deadbase. But its still costs a small fortune. £263.00-thats 370.00 dollars. I haven't got a kindle machine, so that's that for the time being. Amen about the tapes. They have certainly prolonged my interest. And great though so many rock bands were and are, I have yet to come across one that played such varied shows of such high quality for such a long period of time. Due to my lack of skills and equipment, I don't listen to shows on the archive-but I've still got enough shows on cd to keep me going till the end of my life-I am quite old, mind you. Vinyl seems to have got me in its grip this year. That Shrine 67 show-wow! So, looking forward to the 1969 recording that should be coming our way soon.

It is a risky business. Problem is that this sort of thing can happen to anyone, irrespective of lifestyle. Doc, you were obviously very lucky. You were at work, you could have been on a freeway and it wasn't catastrophic. Clots - you don't see them coming - they're sneaky little bastards. Just hope your "residual deficit" doesn't make you talk like Daffy Duck. Take good care of yourself and I hope normal service can be resumed a.s.a.p. It has changed you, though - I see you're talking about 1973 instead of 1971.

Stay well. One of the things you said reminded me of some advice from a wise one that still sticks with me. My Dad's good friend was always laughing and joking around, but as he got older he got a little more reflective. He was 92 the last time I saw him and in failing health. He decided it was time to impart some wisdom on me while he could. He said - Life is short (that struck me coming from a 92 year old). The time you have left is going to go a lot faster than you think. So spend as much time as possible doing what you like to do best. I'd add to that practice kindness when you can, and it's a pretty good formula for the remaining years. Take care.

blood clots do suck. I had 3 mini blood clots in my calf area. and for some reason when I got to get to pee and it made my leg feel like it was going to explode, like someone was choking the shit out of it. I had to spend 3 days in the hospital cuz of it due to complications of of having foot surgery and sitting around and having my leg bent all the time I'm sure.

Heal up, and all the best! Edit: changed it to 12/5/71, think that's the one...anyway, gonna be listening to a lot of '71 'til I get it right. 12/5 has "I Washed My Hands In Muddy Waters" so gonna go for that one first :)

Where does April = Acid Month come from? I like it. Decades ago, when owners of professional sports teams seemingly took municipalities hostage for fear of them moving their teams to other cities to extract large sums of taxpayer funded money to pay for mega sports complexes.. I lost my love for professional sports. To me, it's just bad economics and forcefully funnels money from the average to the uber-wealthy. ..but college sports, hockey and amateur sports still seem fun. Lacrosse is a cool sport. I cut my teeth on music that many here love but I have all but lost interest... The pre-fab stuff can't sustain my attention even if it's good where each show sounds exactly like the last. To me it's good for one listen, sort of a cocaine high then I get distracted and into something else. What captivates me with the GD, besides the raw talent are the songs and the continually evolving arrangements, the reinvention and improvisation, the effort. It evolves and breathes. Every show, song, every moment is different. Doesn't hold true with most metal, country, RAP and anything that is pre-packaged commercialized crap. For the most part country bores me the most with the exception of.. well.. you guys know, real country, roots, the folks that were actually musicians and not cheap business models that reeked of pre-packaged crap. So Willie came on some standard cable channel tonight (who I always had a bit of a soft spot for and have some space on my shelf for his CDs) and I found myself enjoying it immensely. Really took the edge off the work I was doing. In in the banter in-between songs the harp player commented Willie's the guy in the middle and he picks the songs an starts the songs, plays lead and there is no song list for the shows.. so the trick is just to listen to the music and complement what the band is doing. Does that not sound GD like to you? There is a rumor out there that Willie got dosed at one of the infamous 4th of July stadium gigs he sponsored... July 78 anyone?

I kinda hear what you're saying, I haven't really been a sports fan since I was a kid and Billy Martin was managing the Yankees. Thurman Munson was team captain. Lou Piniella, Mickey Rivers, Roy White, Bucky Dent, Willie Randolph, Greg Nettles, Ron Guidry, Catfish Hunter, Goose Gossage, Ed Figuroa, and of course Reggie Jackson, now that was a team! I remember paying a whopping $1.50 for bleacher seats. Me and my cousin (later on this was the same cousin who was my Dead mentor and touring buddy when we were older) would go out to Yankee stadium with our mitts, hoping to catch a fly ball. I remember when on "Bat Day" you actually got a freakin' real bat! The one I got back then was a "Mickey Mantle" bat. Not like today, when you get a little novelty bat. But after that, I grew out of it, and never had the same excitement and affinity for sports again. All the guys I work with are all sports, all the time. And I couldn't care less, and have no idea about the players they are talking about. Just give me my Grateful Dead, and other music I love, and I'm a happy camper... Not to take away from the sports lovers, we all enjoy different things, just not my thing anymore...

Sad ass day. Dantian and Jim. Both of you. But you know what? I am with you. My sport was just ruined today. Ruined. Sorry Vguy, but it was. Glad for your victory, but I just totally lost interest in the finals. Vegas vs. Tampa? That ain't hockey. We used to drive hours north every Saturday just to catch a game on CBC. You could barely see the TV screen, the reception was so bad. Snow storms so fierce, we often had to stay for the night. We did it for the love of the sport. The games were great. I miss it. And those days are never coming back. Now they play in the desert.

My pop used to take us to see the Orioles in the 70's regularly.. bleacher seats were $1.50 then too. Then $2.00.. then $2.50 and he quit taking us. ..but then again, I bet gas was something like 35 cents a gallon. Funny though.. it was more fun then than now. I think we did game 7 in the 1979 World Series and the goddamn Penguins (I mean Pirates) beat us. I have no idea what those tickets cost, but it was the last game my pop ever took us to. I am at a loss how to tie this into the GD.. I will do better tomorrow. Vegas vs. Tampa Hockey. Ironic and quite funny.. I'm happy to share in the enthusiasm though.. just not likely to buy a ticket or support TV commercial revenue. It's all good though, if it makes people happy, then it can't be bad. Enthusiasm is a good thing.

Funny you mention that Jim. I was thinking the same. We all seem to have youthful passions. Baseball, hockey, etc. Yet, they somehow fade. This band is something I discovered later in life, yet the obsession seems to grow.

I listen to more GD now then I ever have. Yet.. socially, I don't think it comes off as obsessive. I am perhaps seen as more 'normal' now than ever but inside my head the music never stops. Weird yet normal. Special thanks to Latvala, Lemieux, Norman and Miller et. al. oh.. and all of you kind folks that keep it all interesting and fresh. Tomorrow's listens are mostly fed by today's banter.

Used to live a few blocks from Baltimore's old Memorial Stadium. Fond memories of walking in a group to see the O's play, then stumbling home somewhat drunk and stoned after the game. My best friend at the time (and still) took me to my first Dead show. I never looked back. That's my tie in.

the obsession seems to grow even more now. It's kind of a strange thing. Like Jim said, outwardly I am much more "normal" appearing than ever before, but inside I am pretty much thinking Dead all the time. Like when I happen to come across some random dates during the day, I'm always relating that to a certain Dead show from that date. I know I can't be the only one doing this either, I know most of you guys do the same thing, dammit! Let's face it, guys and gals, we are a special kind of crazy. But our brand of crazy consists of amazing music from the greatest band the world has ever known, good vibes, friendship, kindness to "strangers," and wishes for the best attributes of humankind to spread, so that ain't so crazy really now, is it :)

You have twisted my arm, Dantian, and "Drinkin TNT" is due to be delivered to daverock towers tomorrow. I notice that the copy I have bought also has a dvd enclosed. Its hard to make out the details, but it seems to be a Muddy Waters concert from the same run of shows, featuring Buddy Guy and Junior Wells in the band. Its not mentioned in the reviews, either, so it will be interesting to see what turns up. I was pleased to see the post from mhammond12, too, that he-you-had enjoyed Larkin Poe, and that your son had been to see them in L.A. I often criticize the online world -but this is surely a great use of it-turning each other on to great music that might otherwise have slipped beneath the radar. Its sinfully easy to buy stuff, though. Also a heads up for R.L Burnside-a real barnstormer if ever I heard one. The live Burnside on Burnside is one the most powerful, rocking, live blues albums I have ever heard. Apparently from the Hill Country in Mississippi, this traditional form of blues seems excellently preserved and delivered by The North Mississippi Allstars. I saw them last year-a great, trance inducing set - even the walls of the bar seemed to be throbbing in time to the music.

I also listen to more Dead now than I did, which may be a consequence of being retired. When I was at work I used to make lots of short car journeys, which weren't really conducive to settling into a show. I was always rushing about in the old days-life is more laid back for me now. Before, I would listen to The Dead at the weekend. Now I can listen when I like, without having to charge off somewhere. But the reason The Dead have remained interesting to me all these years, is partly I think due to the depth of the music. It seems to have deep roots into the history American music-through covers like the aforementioned "I Washed My Hands..", and the ones in regular rotation that we are all familiar with. They seemed to remold this history into something new, without losing sight of the history. They were never a "blues" band or a "country" band, but the spirit of these-and other-traditional forms seemed to inform their own music. I have been listening to a lot of blues over the weekend-and this complements and fits in easily with listening to The Dead. I would also say I seem to be perceived as a lot less outwardly normal since I retired. Good!

"10 Mins - Before the film, movie-goers will get an exclusive inside look at the shows in the 2018 Limited Edition Boxed Set" This is an asterisk on the 2018 MUATM info, as mentioned in a previous post. THOUGHTS?!?! Is the BOX SET a new set of 1989-1990 multi-track shows (hopefully), or will DL stick with his constant theme of 1970s era only releases and it will be a 1973 BOX SET. I'd like to see SPRING 1981 Box Set, he certainly speaks very highly of this tour & has it featured often in the "Taper's Section"....BRING IT!!!!
