Grateful Dead

Got #29 today, but where the LIMITED EDITION: on the back is, mine has no number. Anyone else????

we don't need to use no stinking patches!

I'll take the cheese, please.

I jokingly refer to my man-boobs as "Monterey Jack" (on the left) and "Cheddar" (on the right). Things happen when you are 257 lbs.

Nothing _wrong_ with Wisconsin...I just don't miss it.

Why dice Eyes?

-editing here- There seem to be an awful lot of patches of both '80's releases so far. There are a heck of a lot more stand up performances in the 80's, so to choose ones with tape integrity problems is questionable as well. imo ymmv

I didn't take what was said as being a hater, but you can't make someone like something they don't like.. So he said he didn't like the sound, doesn't make him or her a hater. Strong words.

I do think for 83, the sound on 27 is quite good. It's a cassette master to be sure, but a good release and no one should be surprised it came out when it did. We will see more 80's and 90's as time goes on. I wouldn't act surprised or aghast when this happens.

These things shouldn't cause such a ruckus but adding hyperbole isn't going to make things any better, just worse and more quickly. I like 27, it's high energy GD. I like 29 too, I have always held this show is very high regard.

Have a good night all.. play dead, be happy.

Arrived last weekend. Just finished second time through. Sounds like some noticeable bass enhancement on the filler material. The bass on the Dew is pretty thick and chunky. Love it.

Subscribing is always the way to go with these. Onboard every year since they started offering subscriptions back on that last year of Road Trips. 2020 will see the Dave's picks series reach the same milestone as Dicks picks with 36 releases. Hope this goes well beyond the 50s and even into the 100s. Might take another 17 years to get there and by then when I'm pushing my 70's, maybe they'll finally release more late 80's and 90's shows. Hopefully much sooner than that. A Spring '89 Dave's Pick would be awfully nice....say Ann Arbor or Milwaukee....or the whole tour....

edit - Vol 27 is awesome and sounds great. It's an excellent show. Haters still abound here I see.

Being I whined and wailed so much about what a sonic mess volume 27 was I felt I owed a thank you to Dave for pumping out two good ones in a row now, especially volume 29. Not only a great and historic show, but sonically it's very good. Well Done Dave and his team.

'Tis not so bad if you like beer, cheese, snowsports in the winter and don't mind a little hot, ticks and skeeters in the summer. I like it here (and I just spent an hour and a half moving snow).

From The Vault Box was remastered?

Just ordered it.

I don't think the From the Vault series provides an accurate comparison of HDCD versus non, because they were remastered for the re-release, and sound better anyway. I don't have a HDCD player, but I can hear audio improvements when comparing the original to the re-release.
