First post in a while and a random act of kindness

Hey now, I read this thread often but haven’t posted for at least a year and a half. I super psyched for the new Dave’s picks that’s about to land in our mail boxes. Actually most excited for the bonus disk, as a China - Rider lover this version has always been one of my favorites.
A few days back the thread discussion was about when your first show took place and how that influences what era you like best. Well, first off, I love it all, but my first show was the Hartford ST. Stephen show from 10-15-83 and 80% of my GD listening Is from 68 to 74. I love a great 80s or early 90s show when the mood strikes. It’s a shame the 80s weren’t better recorded because I would more releases from then, but sound quality does matter.
Anyway, like all of us , life For me is pretty tipsy turvy these days. I lost both of my part time jobs six weeks ago and now I spend my days helping my two kids( my user name Annalee is my daughters name ) with their online school work. We are lucky in that my wife has a good job and can work from home. My income usually went to the kids college funds, concerts, cds, vinyl and box sets. I was thinking about getting the 76 box but not now in these times. I started thinking I could sell a few cds that I don’t listen to that often to finance the box, but it didn’t feel right. I thought maybe I would do something cool for someone who could use a smile.......so if you have lost your job or have been deeply negatively impacted by what’s going on out there, be the first person to pm me and if you don’t already have it, I will send you the bonus disk that came with the Winterland 73 box, it is from12-4-73 In Cincinnati. I will let you know tomorrow......CHEERS!!!!

Fall out from the Phil Zone

I know we have spoken about the Visions of Johanna on here before, so good from Spectrum in 95, something made me want to listen to the 33 minute version of In the Midnight Hour from 9/3/67 Rio Nido... I played the lights out of this CD traveling around for work in my rental cars!! Never forgot one... (Can't say the same thing about 9/28/76 Orange tango jam CD, still pissed).. I think I wanted to listen to this now that i think about it because of the Lovelights from Big Rock Pow Wow... bob t

How could I forget those? The most fun of all. 86 were much better shows, with 12/30 being a top five show for me personally. 89 shows were O.K., but more fun.

When you got your tickets, the band included a flyer with a list of hotels. We were in Dennys with a bunch of other heads waiting in line to use the pay phone when this guy walks up and asks if he and his buddies can have a ride. We explained that we just flew in and had no idea where we were going. “That’s O.K. Neither do we. My name is George and I know my way around.” Sure why not.

We drive to the first hotel which was in a really bad part of Oakland. Nobody even wanted to get out of the car. George says, if you guys trust me, I know this great hotel up in Berkeley. Again, why not. Turns out this place was really nice and a block from the BART which dropped us off right at the show every night.

So George walks up to the front desk with his long hair, ripped jeans and tie-dyed shirt and demands the military discount, claiming he lost his card. After some back and forth, the manager relents and gives him a room for the night at some ridiculously cheap price. Like $30. So we check in and George immediately calls the front desk. I’ve changed my mind. I’d like to stay for a week and I need a dozen towels.

To George, Russ and Clarke from Oregon. Never saw you guys again, but thanks for all the laughs.

Doc

Glad to see you back.

You and I have a lot of overlap.

I agree completely about SPAC and Hershey. SPAC was way more fun. Perhaps it was the long drive through the night or maybe the torrential rain, but Hershey was not much fun.

4/1/85 was an average show for me. The previous night was the Day Tripper, so it might have been a let down. If I recall, that was the night it snowed during the show. We exited to over 6 inches of snowfall and had to drive 5 hours through the back roads of Maine to get back to school. Arrived at 6:30 in the morning and had a Signals and Systems exam at 8:00. Got a 41. The highest grade in the class. My proudest moment in college.

Every Maine show I attended was a ton of fun. I never missed one in all my years of touring. Such a great place.

Most fun shows, aside from 10/12/84, certainly did not coincide with a well played concert.

10/12/84 stands far apart from any concert that I ever attended. Everything about it. The drive up to Augusta was during peak foliage. Just spectacular scenery. 10/11/84 was an average show. We under-dosed mushrooms and slept in the car at near freezing temperatures. The wooded knoll was too crowded to sleep. Not fun by any means. We awoke to unbelievably warm sunshine. Found a government building in town with a locker room and hot showers. Refreshed, we headed back to the Civic Center. Everyone was in such a good mood. The show itself needs no explanation. A life changing experience for sure. I will never forget walking out of there and wondering what the hell just happened.

As an aside, I was up in Maine last summer doing the tour of the three LACs with my daughter. The whole place is now littered with strip malls. Kinda sad, but I will always have those memories.

Most fun shows:

All the Maine shows were great. Oxford was especially fun, but nothing more than average shows. By average, it was still far better than anything out there. Just not life altering. That only happens once. I posted a month or so ago about Milwaukee 89. Probably the most fun we ever had, because of the town itself, not the shows. Again, nothing more than average.

Ironically, 7/4/87 was once of the worst shows I ever saw, but also the most fun. There were 30 of us. We were well aware of the headache getting out of there, so came fully prepared with grills, food, beer, etc. Way more fun hanging out in the parking lot than the show itself.

Funny you mention 10/20/84. I was there too. The Angry Jack Straw to close the first set. Never saw anything like that again either.

Peace Doc and be well.

Shipping notice and 3/14/93

Received mine as well.

Regarding the Blizzard '93 show, upon listening later was better than I remembered. I do remember the run of songs "Terrapin > Jam > Drums > Miracle > Stella Blue" being really well played. That Stella is one of my favorites I saw. Very powerful jam.

With the exception of the Deer Creek riot show in 95', the 50 some odd shows I attended were enjoyable experiences. Alpine 86' & 87' probably the most fun. Buckeye 88' was about as not "social distancing" friendly in today's terms as it got. Jam packed. A crazy fun time for a 106 degree day.

I would give anything to be back in the day of seeing Jerry play live. I Think we could all attest to that.

On a side thought, that Germany run from E72' are really nice.

My favorite 3 Grateful Dead concerts I attended

In no particular order, 7/13/76 Orpheum Theatre S.F. 9/11/81 Greek Theatre , 10/9/82 Frost Ampitheatre. The music, venue, and my state of mind were all factors in making these picks.

Re:Stoltzfus

Well, Mr Hopeful, as it turned out you were almost right. I didn't get DP34 by Saturday June 13th BUT all of a sudden it was visible at the Postnord taxes page. So I paid the extra 147 SEK and yesterday on June 18th I finally got it in my hand. :-)

I felt so relieved and thought to myself, finally I haven't got any Dead stuff waiting in the mail ... and then I pre-ordered Garcia Live Volumer 14 because of the bonus disc. "Stupid me". ^^

Lining Up

Hope all is well with people here, and happy to see this release is finally getting into waiting hands. Still holding out to see what will be #35, aware of some rumors flying....

In other happenings, it appears suitors for new employment are beginning to line up on this end as I'm told to expect two offers sometime next week. HUGE EXHALE. Gonna sit back and let them squabble I suppose, and see which one comes out ahead. It's always a pleasant feeling to have an oldschool square off over Sixtus...

Just wanted to share some positive news in these continually odd and trying times. And also to once again thank all of you out there for your show of support or mere thought energy - it bounds across the universe to assist those in need who may be open to receipt.

Happy Friday Dead Freaks
Sixtus

still no Miami

Hi I didn't receive DaveP34 and I am a bit anxious. Did anyone in Europe still miss it?
The June Boxset is on the shelf for one month now, and today is my favourite show birthday Passaic.

Sixtus

Glad to see new opportunities coming alive for you. Sounds like good things coming your way! And Happy (belated) Anniversary to you and your better half...we just celebrated our 15th yesterday! Indeed time flies!!!

Ian Holm

Bilbo Baggins has passed. When I first read the Lord of the Rings trilogy, I started with the Hobbit, and in my opinion, it is the best of the Lord of the Rings books. Always thought Bilbo was way cooler than Frodo and not a pussy like Frodo was, Bilbo was a badass.
Gonna Miss Ian Holm, he knew how to act. He was in so many good flicks Alien, Chariots of Fire, He was Napoleon in Time Bandits, Fifth Element and From Hell as the ripper himself. Qute a resume. RIP Bilbo, Via Con Dios

SIXTUS

Happy for you and that's great to hear. Thanks for sharing some positive news.

In regards to work, it definitely feels good to be fought over.

Now, you mentioned DaP V35, how about sharing those rumors ;)

Happy Friday You All!

Re: Dead Reads

Just wanted log on real quick and thank everyone for their book suggestions. "The Music Never Stopped" looks very interesting, and I'm going to keep my eye out for it at the small book shops as it seems out-of-print.

Side note, yesterday I noticed one of our local book shops had it's "OPEN" sign hanging in the window. This was a welcome surprise as I always loved browsing this particular store, and the place has been shuttered since March, I never thought it would reopen...another forgotten casualty of the retched virus. Anyway, I stopped and stuck my head in for a minute in hopes I could find something and maybe give them some much needed support. I was not disappointed. I walked out with paperback copies of "Pearl' the Janis Joplin bio and "Garcia: An American Life".

Folks, I know it's tough out there right now, but if you can manage to support your friends, neighbors, community, local businesses in anyway you can, I think we'll all start to see a little bit of light.

Do good things people, and stay cool.

Love this site......

"It's really a beautiful day for a tornado"

Name the show that's from, and the person who said it, and you win!

GD84 is chock full of good shows

Dave...Dave...

I know you can find one or two to add to your picks/pix/pics

Jefferson Airplane

“No man is an island
He’s a peninsula “ After Bathing at Baxter’s
One of their great lesser known albums.
Wilde poem there six. Thyme waits for no one.

Neil’s Never Known to Fail Papers for Rough and Rowdy Times

New Dylan album drops today along with Neil Young’s Homegrown as well.

Life is very good. Often wish Jerry was still around too. Always wonder what his later works might have been like.

Peace to all and good listening!

Vote for Dave's Picks

It would be cool if all the people who participate in this forum, could vote for one Dave's pick a year. We could have discussions on various shows from different years for a few weeks and then take a final vote and submit it to Dave for a pick the following year. People could all put their reasons out there as to why people should vote for their pick. I think it would be a lot of fun.

Vera Lynne

Her funerals next week , though at the moment we don’t know where and we don’t know when .

1968

From the vault volume two has always been one of my favorite releases, great sound and the whole thing rips! I spent last night with the road trips from 68, 2-14-68, completely mind blowing stuff. I can’t imagine seeing them live back then. I saw them from 83 to the end and it was a lot of fun, but nothing like what I was listening to last night.
Also, this latest release is fantastic!!!!
Dream scenario for the rest of the year: last two Dave’s picks are from 68 or 73. A 70s show with the AB release and a fall 72 box set or Ark 69 box or both, a man can dream can’t he. The dream scenario also includes a vaccine for COVID and some new leadership in this country....Happy Friday night!

Just got an email from

MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LABS SACD OF Workingman's Dead "Original Master Recording" for those of you that are interested. I did not happen to catch if there was "limited" copies but you might want to get on it in case.

And YES Billy The Kid I second that idea

Enjoy the weekend Cheers

Brand Spankin' New Dylan & Young....

....i need more ears. And time.

Mickes got his...

But I aint got mine, today it is a month since it supposedly transferred out of Brussels aiport, on a plane but assuredly not the Airplane.

Congratulations to deadmike in sweden

Me just waiting too like gratefulgerd und the guy in Fehmarn and a few others (I presume).
Or has anybody got his copy here in Germany already?
But hope will never die, say it to me every day.

Re: Billy The Kid

Well, could of course be something to look forward to for the lucky people who'd vote for the winning Picks. :-)

For me it's all about 1967-73 I guess, maybe 1974. I'm not opposed to later years but there's been to many shows from 1976 to 1978 and from 1979 my interest begin to vane. Up to 1985 is okey and I like Spring 1990 but otherwise I think the band got less interesting from 1986/87. But that's my feelings, of course. :-)

I would definitely vote for a Fall 1966 to Fall 1968 bits and pieces volume.

Dead Mike ,/ Dave's Picks voting

I'm glad you like the idea of voting for the Dave's picks, I believe that there would be a lot of interest and the people on this forum would really get into it. I would most likely be voting for shows from 1966 to 1973. Here is something you might be interested in, check out this web site called anthem prints.com, it's a cool story about about the Anthem of the Sun cover art and prints that were made up. I'm glad you finally received your music. I am part Norweigan, on my mother's side so I have relatives over in your neck of the woods. Anyways, have fun and enjoy your music.

Dave’s Picks Volume 34: Jai Alai Fronton, Miami, FL 6/23/74

Nr 7384 has just landed in Bochum, Germany. For the first time I had to pay customs duty. Very curious! Going to listen to the music, it took a very long time to arrive! Still waiting for the June 76 box. Hopefully it will arrive in the next days (or weeks?)

Deadbo, good to hear!

Question please:
Did you pay customs duty directly to the postman or had you go to the post office to pay and pick it up there?
Thanks and enjoy,
Gerd

Dead Rareties Compilation

Thanks DEADMIKE, for mentioning a bits & pieces compilation. I have long wished for a live rareties comp, maybe songs the dead played 10 times or less. It may not be right for a Dave’s, but perfect for a limited public release. That may be my most wished for item.

No man is an island, he’s a Fjord!!

Thanks Billy The Kid

Frost '82 and/or Greek '81 would make perfect mini box sets. Consistently great playing, and superb weather throughout; loved the Greek staggered start times: 7pm Friday, 5pm Saturday and 3pm Sunday; they had the Workingman in mind, no doubt(or Bill Graham did.)

DP34 in Germany

Got #11949 + bonus today. Had to pay 11,20 EUR for taxes and service. The price for this item is under 25 EUR so due to german law NO taxes had to be paid. But someone declares the value of the package with 30 USD which is about 26.55 EUR. Hope I get a refund from dead.net.
Will sort out the music later think I have parts of this show on one of the first Grateful Dead Hour.
Stay safe

Cousins/ Frost

I thought that Frost 82 and 85 were the best two years at the Frost. Greek, my favorite show was 9/11/81, you kinda had to be there, during Morning Dew you could hear a pin drop, very powerful moment. A Greek box would have to include 7/13/84 and 7/14/85. I listed my favorite three Dead shows that I attended the other day and 9/11/81 and 10/9/82 made up the list , along with 7/13/76. I read on the Dead Archive once , a guy on there thought that 9/11/81 had the best 2nd set of the 80s . The 2nd Greek show was also a killer, 9/12/81. I didn't think all the shows at the Frost and Greek were knockouts, but the ones that were great shows would make a hell of a great box set.

Internet Archive Lawsuit

Apparently the Internet Archive is being sued by several large book publishing companies. This link gives a good synopsis of the grievance and what brought it about...

Hopefully this can be settled and our beloved Dead/Music archive will be unscathed while allowing the valuable work the Archive does to continue...

Just like JJFehmarn I had to…

Just like JJFehmarn I had to pay € 11,20 directly to the postman! It's a lot of money if you consider that one DaP costs about € 25. I will look for it! Listen and enjoy!

I paint landscapes..and I paint nudes..

For those of you so inclined, how are you liking the new Dylan album?

Really put it through the paces here yesterday, some today but cleansing my palette now. Don't want to overdo it. I think it is very good..it takes elements of all his later day stuff and influences and ties them together. Flashes of the Sinatra era, electric blues, dense lyrics and an abundance of name dropping. I feel it is less 'paint by numbers' than some of the other Mod Bob original albums.

As far as palette cleansers go, listening to the Jam from near the end of 1968-10-12 Avalon Ballroom, my God.

Had to pop on the full package for the new Jerry release, love the acoustic sets and the poster / shirt / et al looked great.

Agree on too much good stuff to listen to. I also picked up vinyl copies of Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs and Muddy 'Mississippi' Live, the live album of Muddy produced and played on by Johnny Winter from '79 (recorded in '77 and '78). If I had to pick, I'm more of an acoustic blues type..the 20s and 30s, etc, but I do love the electric heyday of the late 40s to early 60s..Chess, Sun, etc.
That said, the live Mannish Boy from '77 to open the album is THE electric blues song..period, as far as I'm concerned.

Best I can tell that was recorded 3/18/77 in Illinois, the same night some other decent musicians were debuting the Scarlet > Fire hook-up across the country...

Muleskiner/ electric blues song period

Take Hoochie Coochie Man from January of 1954 if you want to hear the electric blues song period. Muddy Waters backed by the great Little Walter , Otis Spann, Willie Dixon, Jimmy Rogers and Fred Below. That is the electric blues song period.

Good choice! Hoochie Coochie Man was never my favorite, but it's definitely legendary and agree that it's impossible to touch those Chess lineups. It's mind blowing that those players were in the same spot at the same time, playing on each other's records. Love Little Walter..I read Mannish Boy in 1955 was his only recording between January 1953 and June 1957 without Walter since he was off on his own.

As much praise as I heaped on that live Mannish Boy, that archetype of it, Hoochie Coochie Man, etc, is not my favorite template, the generic blues riff. That live version just got me good..the energy.

If I had to pick, I prefer Wolf's studio stuff to Muddy's, but none of the Chess stuff from the era is even close to anything but great.

That's awesome LMG

DaP 2 is a steal. What is the name of the record store?

Its official....

....i gave up on my top ten Grateful Dead songs. Right now its Easy Wind. Wouldn't have made the list three days ago. But it does now.
Rust In Peace is a classic Stoltzfus. No argument here.
Indulging in the green, then going to the grocery store has been known to rack up the receipt. I could teach a class in that.

In The Basement...

Oh, tell me where can you party, child, all night long?
In the basement, down in the basement, yeah
Oh where can you go when your money gets low?
In the basement, whoa down in the basement
And if a storm is taking place, you can jam and still be safe
In the basement, down in the basement, yeah yeah yeah
Oh, where can you dance to any music you choose?
In the basement, whoa down in the basement
Oh, you got the comforts of home, a nightclub too
In the basement, whoa down in the basement
There's no cover charge or fee and the food and drinks are free
In the basement, come on child, yeah down in the basement
In the basement, that's where it's at...

Can't believe it took me till now to discover Sugar Pie Desanto, been on a steady soul kick lately and she is hitting the spot tonight. Do I Make Myself Clear got things rolling and made me say, damn, who is that? Gave part of a listen to GarciaLive 13 today also, but the soul has been the sound I crave lately.

I didn't realize, how much I needed a new Dylan record....

....then Mr. Zimmerman reminded me. I really did.
