    Who's up for a revolutionary evolutionary ride? DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 1/2/70 captures the Grateful Dead as they make their first foray from the experimental 60s into their early 70s acoustic Americana period. Yes, this one is a little bit country and a little bit (psychedelic) rock and roll.

    When the "Magnificent Seven" - Pigpen on percussion, T.C. on keys - first took the stage on 1/2/70, evidence was clear that the trip was about to take a turn. From their western wears to the twang in Jerry’s “broken-string blues,” it appeared they'd brought the Bakersfield sound to the Big Apple. They worked through much of what would become Workingman's Dead, stunning the crowd with laid-back numbers like "Uncle John's Band," "Casey Jones," and "Black Peter." Just the same, they satisfied 60s stalwarts with magical versions of "Dark Star," "St. Stephen," and "That's It For The Other One." Sonic alchemy, indeed!

    DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, ​New York 1/2/70 has been rounded out with a bit of 1/3/70 (the subscribers-only bonus disc features the bulk of 1/3/70). It was recorded by the great Owsley "Bear" Stanley and has been lovingly mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

    DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30 is limited to 20,000 individually-numbered copies*.

    *Limited to 2 per order. Very limited quantity available.

    *Re/ 1 Boxset...

    ...a show of hands please for a “Warfield Anniversary Boxset, October 1980, celebrating the Grateful Dead's 15th Anniversary.” A perfect blending of older cuts from the Dead's extensive repertoire with performances of the Dead’s acoustic sets & Electric ...🙏❤️😎

    Bruce in the mountains

    Had a wonderful evening with Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers in the mountains of North Carolina last Wednesday at the Salvage Station. Set list:
    Great Divide
    Stander on the Mountain
    Fractals
    I'll take you there
    The way it is
    Tango King
    Pastures of Plenty
    Up with People
    Celestial Railroad
    Green, Green rocky road
    Every Little Kiss
    Echolocation
    Defenders of the Flag
    Big Rock Candy Mountain>Candy Mountain Run
    Little Sadie>White Wheeled Limo>Liberty Valance
    Great jams especially the Candy Mountain Run, had the audience rocking and we all danced all night. 2.5 hr show with no breaks. Great Grateful Dead cover band on after the Bruce show who's opening song was Estimated Prophet, and they did an excellent job. Phunkle Sam is the name of the band and they are very well versed in Grateful Dead tunes.
    If you get a chance, catch Bruce this time around, had a good time with some excellent tunes played along the river with fireflies dancing around us most of the evening, awesome. Check out Bruce's new lp also, it's worth a listen.
    Box set, I'll take some 91 Bruce and Vince this time around, it's time to break these shows out, they were great.
    Last 6:
    Jules and the Polar Bears, Phonetics
    Steppenwolf, Live
    Cheech and Chong, Big Bambu
    Mahogany Rush, Child of the Novelity
    Bruce Hornsby, Absolute Zero
    Stomu Yamashta, Go (with Steve Winwood and Michael Shrieve)

    Oro strawberry beer, Yassss

    Thanks for tormenting me on the strawberry beer bro!! Now I am going out first thing tomorrow and find me some S. B. To quench my beer jones. I'll see if they have strawberry daze ale, if not I'll get any kind they have. I will let you know the results. It is funny that I have not bought a growler in ages. I think it's high time I start growling again. Peace!

    “Roll right through the night...”
    SPACEBRO: “so glad you made it”...ditto Wilfred.....yasss, those Richfield shows go under the radar but where mighty tasty....believe that was the last or near last time I hung with my old amigo Lee Esdee...remember camping nearby sea world with previously mentioned, now 21 year old girl friend, me 28, and tent loving all night to the unbelievable sound of the whales.....whoooaaaa...

    CARLO: yassss, use to space about why/what if JG threw down some badass BG....though not in the GD context but alas, perhaps lack of due to another side affect of the Jones etc? Fortunately we got at least the 90 Grisman et el stuff!
    Virtual, cyber? Kegger, pssstttttt, that’s me opening the last growler of that tasty strawberry daze ale.....till next year!

    JIMMD: “Ark You!”.......and of course I mean that in a good way 😀

    LEDEAD: thanks for the awesome article! Had not seen that one! Nice long, candid one too. Love Billy K but sometimes.....not here though!
    EDIT: interesting AB comments considering recent related posts here.....

    DAVEROCK: will have to listen/analyze for the River/fingers correlation.....personally also thought L.R.R. and many of late era JG ballads were favs, if maybe a bit too many? Seemed to fit the vibe near the end days...perhaps just projecting my maturing? Moving on feelings/“growing up”.....ok, that’s too much thinking for this time and space???

    C.J: and so it begins....! ; )

    BobT: thanks! Glad to see ya...sorry, believe you told me/us this already....sorry for repeats Uncle! ; )

    HF: eh, who you calling a kid ; )
    and, ....ramble on baby!....I can’t speak for the rest of this ship of fools, but I dig your rambles!
    I Like most of what you postulate, yasss, know I would truly dig any primal Dead, but your probably right about marketing/economics here....very interesting about your post GD observations vis a vis releases versus live. Perhaps a correlation with the younger gen/no stuff thing? Cool that kids are still pro live versuses memorex....perhaps we’re so rabid about releases due to the age/nostalgia bug and trying to relive etc, while the youngins are trying to actually live their own legacy, which is nice!
    Think 69 might get more traction than you think? I know I’d dig that shite, ark, ark, ark! Woof! ......perhaps those that are neophytes would just bye and end up blown away?....
    71? Know many here would love that spring stuff, not sure that would sell well with the casuals? (No offense to the Doc if yee lurkith?...miss ya boss!) Personally late 70 through pre Kieth 71 is not on my top wish lists, which is ironic cause skull fuck was sorta the final indoctrinating straw for moi. Sure I’d learn to love it like a red headed step child 😉
    Your thoughts on fall 72 are not wrong....know I’d dig some big ass meaty Dark Stars etc ala previous releases....and agree 72 is pretty much money with this crowd. Also, been about time since 8/25 which was great in my minds eye, but perhaps not equal to some fall deep space 9 mojo? Imho.
    Not disagreeing with your logic per 89-91, but perhaps the music is strong enough, and maybe overlooked enough, while having enough fans, especially with lack of inventory so far, that a small but solid 91 outing would trend well enough? Getting a 69 vibe myself, perhaps only in a dog sense kinda way, but hey, that shit has worked as much as logic and empiricism!

    And in these days in GD history......spinning 6/27/85, which has a bit of slop/ occasional JG vocal mishaps, but imo is more than made up for with chutzpah, and shining diamond moments of psychedelic golden yummies, and a neat set list! Oye, the energy! Followed by 6/28/85 which is one of my favs; both @ and recording....again a bit of the first set “slop” but grows into a beast....remeber it was not a pleasant day. But the set up was awesome; like high school stadium, not too crowded, with PA in true stereo imaging set up, small delay towers on the ground behind the board, no cranes needed! But because of the elements they had plastic protection over everything; PA, stage gear etc until sometime in the 2nd...believe Estinmated into Terrapin? Eventually it cleared up with the stars out and they peeled off that plastic protection off, Healy started to crank it (which we were truanting him to do as we were hanging in front of soundboard per usual), and things started getting progressively better from there...started to warm up a bit too, which eventually led to moi overheating, but that’s another story that I shall only replay upon request.
    Anywho, interesting first, followed by “continued singing in the rain” one of my fav Music Never Stopped”, my first Tom Thumbs, a solid Estimated, good Terrapin, great experientially, followed by one of my favorite spaces, complete with some serious 3D holographic, moving, Healy shit, woooooooooo, (recordings do not begin to capture this phenomena!), into a slamming Miracle, and perhaps my all time favorite Dew (very influenced by passing grandfather,) psychedelic, personal, cathartic variables, but to me still transcend all that even today....with a strong Stones/NFA, but unfortunately a bit of a let down with the Day Job encore....by then to my gang that one had kinda run its course. Dug it in like 83 etc, but eventually wore itself out...?
    Followed all this off with first set of of 6/27/87 which is decent, tight 87ish, and now into the wee hours we’re bringing it all home with 6/25/88 mix of all of the first (“we don’t just let anyone sit in on accordion”) and the second first half mix of Victum, Blow Away, and Foolish, which were firsts for our gang...kinda of shitty conditions there though at the time..recall not feeling it so much then, but recording has remained a nice summer time fav.....
    Tomorrow hopefully, finally, get to dig into PNW 6/24&26/73 shows....boo-yah!
    So much Dead, so little time!....
    And too all a goodnight!
    Have a greatful weekend mi amigos!

    BTW, did anyone grab the vinyl AND cd of the Warfield? I have the cd and I think I'm digging it the most out of the latest releases, but wondered if the vinyl differed in any way from the cd (which has a complete dearth of liner notes, accompanying booklet, or photos of the band, etc.)

    P.S. I finally picked up the Shrine '67 vinyl (mainly for the cover art which I like on my wall.

...Keithfan my friend, hope all is well. How about the performance from 10/26/71 Rochester NY, sequence- ‘Truck’n >>Drums>>’The Other One’. I think it’s a great performance!
“This is something new” the band tells the crowd of fans at ‘The Palestra’ after finishing a Primo performance of ‘ Comes A Time’ and then the dead jump into ‘One More Saturday Night’! Oh yeah, play it loud!!! Primo Show all around really in my Dead Head Opinion lol ha ha 🙏❤️😎take care everyone. God bless.
...Almost forgot about 4/29/77 , a Sweet version of ‘Sugaree’, ‘Scarlet Begonias’ & ‘Going Down the Road’ feeling bad! Love’n it all! Smile Smile Smile!

...Keithfan, I also enjoy the 7/21/72 performance in Seattle. PRIMO ‘Truck’n>>Drums/Bass>>’The Other One’! 😉✌️

Grateful Dead Meet-Up 2019 will feature 6/17/91 from Giants Stadium, and "as a special treat, this extraordinary screening will also feature a reveal of the Grateful Dead's 2019 boxed set, featuring the Dead's legacy manager, archivist and producer David Lemieux."

https://terracetheater.com/movie/grateful-dead-meet-up-2019

https://thelittle.org/event/May19/grateful-dead-meet-2019

...I love the Grateful Dead, all eras, I shit you not. Lol ha ha...but Im really not too excited for this release. Even though it’s from the 48 master recordings( I’m a huge fan of primo high quality audio🙏). And the set list is more than grateful!
I was there. I attended this show and I had a Blast! It was in a grateful time in my life. As I look back, I try to recall every performance / show I attended with a special part some where hidden in thy body & soul. This performance at Giants Stadium I remember like it was yesterday. If I sit or stand still, close my eyes and focus. I’m right back where it all began, boom, it hits close to my heart, maybe that’s why I’m steering away from this release?. It sure brings back a rush of old memories, good & bad, All and All a lovey story about love, death & travel, just think of jack kerouac writing...I know this is going to be a Primo Event for the Band and their Fans!
Long live the ‘good ol Grateful Dead’ !
“There’s Nothen Like a Grateful Dead Concert!”

The band really tried to make these shows special. The pages going around with Jerry's guitar on them were the bomb.

It's sad that we will never see these two shows released in a box-set with blu-ray video.

Edit: These two were taped for release.

Per the link below:

I take ‘reveal’ to mean a showing of the Box itself.

So hopefully we get the pre-order announcement soon.
Maybe delivery in August/September, similar to PNW.

Mmmmmmm.......Box Set.........

Stoltzfus when you said June 3rd, I figured that was the announcement of the box set, not the announcement for the announcement. But that's okay, at least I can relax for a couple months now knowing exactly when the date is. The other guy said he heard something different from you, but clearly he knows not.

I might be mistaken but I think they used the film event to do a box set reveal last year but I’m pretty sure we all knew the details of the release prior to the film. Right??

I was also kind of thinking that's how it went down. August is awfully late for the reveal. Even 30 Trips was early as June for a Sept release.

....and agree to stop the false prophet digs. Life's too short.
I'm also going to jump in and say that the 10.9.80 acoustic set at the Warfield is good, but the 10.10.80 acoustic set is grate!
I haven't been to a MUATU event yet....that is going to change this year.
48 tracks? I'm guessing track 34 is picking up Phil's farts.

I listen to 12/6/71 from time to time still. Just noticed Pigpen only sang three songs that night. None in the 2nd set. Must have been feeling shitty. I like this show.

This is a fantastic show. One of the only ones they ever opened with Eyes of the World, I believe. And certainly the Bruce factor out of the gate is Immortal. They weave in and out of Dark Star the entire show but never actually go all the way. Great interplay and I can't wait for 48 tracks. Wow.

And of course, we've probably seen at least the Eyes of the World and Saint of Circumstance featured on the "In-Concert" series that was briefly on network television in the 1990s where those clips were featured and I happened to be able to record it on VHS at the time. I then found a way to transfer that to cassette tape and from there it eventually made its way to a CD.

Then I finally found archive.org. The rest is history as they say.

....I like it as well. It was in my last last five. I already have a new last three. The latest last five report will land within two hours. Give or take twenty minutes.

That this years MUATM's will be part of their new YouTube streaming concept. So the question is.. Free, you have put up with commercials or Subscription, or a hybrid.

I'm honestly surprised they are not going with the Nugs model.. but instead of livestream, you can just buy the stream and watch it whenever you want.

I also listened to 12/6/71 this past week and it was eons better than I remembered it. With the exception of Weir missing a line in Truckin' ( I'd be disappointed if he didn't), it's a near perfect stroll through their new school tunes, which they had a nice shine on by 12/71. The Other One with Bobby McGee in between into Wharf Rat is gold. Closes out with one of their best UJB (as far as their non-extended Jam renditions go).

The PNW box was announced on June 12, 2018. I bought mine on the first day. They arrived at our homes in early September.
Seems like the dates for this year's box release according to the MUATM announcement will be close to last year. So, we should know something soon. Can't wait. Don't be fooled by the 1991 MUATM date, they won't be dipping into 1991 for awhile.

Now the proud owner of a new Rega Saturn cd player-complete with actual cabinet, to place it in,, as opposed to whatever happens to be lying around as has traditionally been the case, I finally gave this a listen. I am well impressed with the sound quality, I have to say. The 3rd cd, as every one has already said, is the one. Maybe the correct playing order is that, followed by the rest of it. I like the first 2cds well enough, though. While I am here, I could share my last 5-apart from the above, they read
Live at Dusseldorf 3/28/79 Steve Hillage
Live in Ohio 4/28/74 King Crimson
The Contact Sessions The Thirteenth Floor Elevators
Power Plant The Golden Dawn
and last but definitely not least, the only recorded evidence of of Snakegrinder and the Shredded Field Mice. On vinyl. Genius.

I'm glad everyone had their therapeutic purge, now it's time to move on or take it to the PM. Capeesh?

So I'm getting a head start on the Winterland June 1977 Complete Recordings anniversary run. Let me just say I love the Scarlet Fire on here. The beginning is really cool, because they take a while to get into the vocals, so you can just kind of space out and relax for a bit. There's this mesmerizing Jam section towards the end of Scarlet that is really just a thing of its own - never heard them go off quite like this. It's a couple minutes long, and a mellow moment, but a damn fine one. Don't mind the microphone problem on the first verse. Of all the things, it's hard to imagine this box set goes for $400 used on eBay. It does have all the biggies though. The Cornell box doesn't even have a conjoined Estimated Eyes.

Come on guys and gals let’s stop this bickering . I’m sure the good people of rhino will do what’s best for us all 🤞and deliver some box set news as and when . In the mean time let’s not forget it’s all about fun and enjoying the music we’ve already got ( to be honest I haven’t finished PNW yet !! ) At least you people over the pond have got MUATM and let’s not forget dead & co shows . We've had diddly squat over in limey land since nov 1990 .
P.S . LMG I saw the doors alive cover band in my home town ( St Albans ) last week and they were fantastic - thought of you when they played 5 to 1 😺 .
P.P.S. I’m currently loving dicks picks 19 at the mo . I do love me some 73 dead . 😸😸😸
Be good and be save and as Pete Townshend said at the isle of white in 1970 “ smile you buggers , pretend it’s Christmas “

That's It For the Other One ->
Cosmic Charlie
Uncle John's Band
High Time

Meet up at the movies - looks cool. Would be interesting if daves picks 31 is selected as same show as film. I was just checking out another show from Giants stadium yesterday from June 1993. Nice Candyman

Been rockin out , May 1978 Dicks Picks 25 disc 1 for the last couple weeks. Straight fire. That first disc is near perfect from start to finish.

Keith fan made a great suggestion. Move on or take it to the PM. Not because he is any kind of moderator or anyting, but because everyone is tired of your personal feud. So what are you do? You announce you're going to write a short response and then you write a novel. Nobody cares about what you're talking about. Show some respect for the rest of the board and take it to the private forum that you have at your disposal.

Take it to the p.m. please. Really, you're so full of negative vibes both of you, but I haven't seen a response from exile, which I'm happy for. Someone made a suggestion to p.m. each other, so go ahead and do that. The room is not interested in any of this.

I think if you both want to be stand-up guys and redeem yourselves to the room, you should go back and edit your posts down to one positive sentence and take all of your comments to the p.m. Nobody wants to read this. If you are truly people who stand for the good vibes of the board like you say you are, just remove what you've written. Click edit and write something like Good Day Sunshine. Or smile smile smile. Or primo peggy-o's. But please spare us of all of it and cut / paste to p.m.

Hey LMG & EOMS. Your "existential" spat, like all too many before, doesn't belong here. LMG, I just about always enjoy your posts and look forward to reading more in the future. You too, Exile. Doesn't sound like anyone else thinks you need to defend your good names, but if you're passionate about doing so, please take it to PM (as in "PERSONAL/PRIVATE" Messages) where it belongs.

Possibly;
1) more Mickey Toys
2) More Keyboard/Bralove toys
3) They were collecting live tracks for possible release ala Without a Net..
4) some/all of the above.......don’t think the rest were doing anything that different that would of required more tracks? Would think the midi stuff would still source to the mixes via their individual rigs direct or mic’d as usual?
I believe I read somewhere that they used 64 for Built to Last? That’s probably as much as convenience as actually needing that many?

OTIS/J Roddy & the Bidness; tell your boy Billy we really enjoyed, the wife especially as she’s not “one of us” lol, so likes the more straightforward R&R......to me they seemed like a band trying to be as tight and “professional” as possible, you know, trying to “make it” (Not that that’s a bad thing) But the whole time I felt like “what if this guy started ripping up some Zepplin”? You can sometimes really tell who a musicians main influences were, and I’m betting Page was it for your friend?

Bobby breaks the tension created when VGuy and KeithFan were dangerously dangling from balcony by reaching deep into his bag of tricks and telling the funniest joke in the world.. developed in WWII as a secret weapon used to end the war. This appears as song 5 on the Miller seed on the archive, "Get Down From The Balcony." tsk tsk boys.

Here is the origin of the joke.

An now you know the rest of the story.

Midnight Hour > Bertha. Such a strong opener to an under-rated show.. Certainly releasable one day.

Would love to see an Ark box or even something off the cuff like a Spectrum box set (I grew up a few miles from there) The anticipation is killing me. Super pumped for the MUATM. I only caught about a dozen shows with Jerry and 6/17/91 has always stuck out to me and I have always considered it the best Dead show I saw live. Can't wait to relive it again :)

While we are awaiting the box set announcement, I stumbled upon this

How could I have missed that? Downright crabby, but in a good way.
