    "To my ears, the best Dead shows are those that not only fit the criteria that make them amongst the best of a year, but that are also completely unique for their era—shows that fit perfectly into their year of performance, but also fall somewhat outside of the norm for that year. Harpur College, Veneta, Cornell, Cape Cod, and Augusta are all shows that are objectively excellent, and if they are not the best from their respective years of performance, they are certainly unique. Miami 6/23/74 falls into that category: not only one of the very best shows from this outstanding year, but also one of the most interesting and unique. It’s certainly worthy of many, many deep listens." - David Lemieux

    ¡Ándale, ándale! ¡Arriba, arriba! We're back with a hot one from Miami, F-L-A. DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 34 features the complete show from the Jai Alai Fronton, 6/23/74, one with unparalleled sound quality due in equal parts to the Wall Of Sound and the beautiful sonic clarity of Kidd Candelario's tapes. The first set is chock full of dynamite takes on classics like "Ramble On Rose," "Mississippi Half-Step," and "Cumberland Blues." The second set delivers on the JAMS - one leading into a gorgeous "Ship Of Fools," one rare instrumental version of "Dark Star," and a "Spanish Jam," this is Miami after all! The show also offers up a "first" and an "only" - the former, a Seastones set featuring Phil and Ned Lagin and the latter, the sole Grateful Dead performance of Chuck Berry's "Let It Rock."

    Limited to 22,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOL.34: JAI ALAI FRONTON, MIAMI, FL 6/23/74 has been mastered from the 7.5 IPS reel-to-reel tapes to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman. ¡Agarrarlo mientras esta calientito! (Get it while it's hot!)

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

    DaP 34 First Listen

    Royal Mail delivered the album yesterday as promised once the VAT had been paid. The bonus disc PITB is very good. The main album is also very enjoyable. The third disc is practically perfectly played although I think the Casey Jones encore sounds a little throwaway. The Dark Star/Spanish Jam/US Blues is particularly fine. The recording quality is very good throughout. Hope the people still waiting are soon united with their discs.

    Hatfields

    If you are enjoying Hatfield and the North I suggest listening to National Health another Canterbury Band formed by members of The Hatfields and Gilgamesh. When I saw them at Eric’s club in Liverpool in 78 or 79 they had John Greaves of Henry Cow with them and were fantastic. Their albums are very good having a similar humour in their lyrics as the Hatfields.

    Way off topic, but I‘ve just been listening to Hatfield and the North. Part of the celebrated Canterbury sound and sounding very like early Soft Machine and Caravan (which is not surprising since some came from Caravan). Absolutely love it. Jazzy, offbeat and humorous. Can’t think why I’ve never listened to them before as I was a massive fan of the Canterbury bands. Talking of which, I went to see a modern Canterbury band, Syd Arthur, a few years back and they are fab. Their jamming is quite short but sounds longer if that makes sense. They toured the States a while back with Yes so some might have seen them. Well worth a listen for some modern psychedelic music!

    The Calendar That Keeps On Giving

    The wave of simply outstanding shows from this time period across the years continues with what many already know is among my all time favorites; we've been sooo lucky to have thoroughly enjoyed this one via the recent box - I just had to chime in again today to give a loving shout out to 6/11/76:

    https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-11.141702.sbd.miller.flac1644

    Continuing the trend, I offer applause to KeithFan who finally bit the bullet on 6/10/73. I personally found myself entranced by this Dark Star yesterday....it's a complete Monster among other heart-pounding ghouls from that day.

    Thanks also to the many kind folks here who both chimed in or simply offered a momentary thought my way; birthdays are always the best when you feel the love and vibes. A sincere Thank You.

    Finally, LMG - your plight is difficult and seemingly unimaginable but the positivity you exhibit despite this each and every day is indeed inspiring.
    May The Four Winds Blow You Safely Home.

    Be Well, people.

    I've gone no holds barred on this show. I think I mentioned here that I rarely listen to any of it so that my first first impressions would occur on the Full Norman. The soundboard is so good I said screw it, and it is so freakin good. I guess the next step is to get into 6/9.

    I'll bet Dave already has the Full Norman on his hard drive and burned to CD. If were him I would have rung up Jeffrey Norman and called in a favor on that one. How long can it possibly take Norman? I wonder what else he does besides send the tapes to Plangent. I imagine that's how the process works. If Norman owned a Plangent contraption, then every release would get the Full Plangent. I visited the Plangent web site a few years ago but I forget what I read...

    Sixtus, missed your Birthday, happy belated bro.

    Lookin' for those bass players

    Was watching this video below, watching the guy on standup bass. His top two (the low notes) seemed to have a cartoonish amount of play in them. Unlike say, Don Was, who seems to apply a lot of pressure to get string to move.

    Are there two different strings for bass, nylon or metal? (don't what else to call them)

    Would you open tune a string with lots of play for reverb/substain?

    Am I just nuts and his bass has normal play?

Don't be embarrassed by your top five. Mine suck too, compared to the glory days. But, they were far better than anything else out there at the time. More importantly, they got you where you are today.

As a guy who even missed the Touch of Grey era, my list is a little embarrassing compared to the others. But even coming along as late as I did, I always felt very fortunate to have seen them on a handful of nights where they really seemed to catch lighting in a bottle. I also got to see Jerry's triumphant return (part 2) in Denver and the last 3 Shoreline shows and others...but musically these five were the magical ones.

8/16/91 Shoreline (1st set Dark Star at my first show)
10/31/91 Oakland Coliseum (Dark Star & Ken Kesey tribute to Bill Graham)
6/25/92 Soldier Field, Chicago, IL (Schoolgirl & much of 2nd set with Steve Miller & James Cotton)
5/26/93 Cal Expo, Sacramento, CA (Road Trips Vol.2, #4)

I was at this show, the Dark Star/Promised Land is one of my favorite Grateful Dead moments. This show was a rocker and could easily be a Dave's Pick.

no show yet. Still waiting.
I've been to my favoured biergarten this afternoon in H. near FO and I've just returned home.
No information and no disc in the mailbox.
Got me some Hebendanz Anna Fest Bier. Might be helpful for the waiting time.
Enjoy

Is the “Bear” especially being on the dead website and I’ll think it’s appropriate he’s the number one fan of the grateful dead inhis own way, he’s as biker ( if you understand the no name calling rule! But much love they’re guys have with the dead. I wish’s j could post photos!as well he is!

Wow!! See what happens when you have fat fingers?? I was trying to type in DEADVIKES, and missed it.
Yes, I did mean Dick’s Picks. There are no Dave’s available.
LoveMyGirl—I want to get excited about what you have to announce, but there’s a level of incoherence that prevents me from getting excited.
I am excited about Workingman’s Dead 50th, as well as Dave’s 35. I’m hoping for a good, Covid free summer.
Be safe all!!

I think It's Obvious that we expect news shortly seeing that we are one month away from the next Dave's Picks release and tis the season for a fall box release and the announcement usually comes at this time of year. I have to agree with MR ONES about your "your level of Incoherence that prevents me from getting excited"

Billy, I didn't have anything to compare it too, but I can confirm the folks on the lawn went ape shit! The Jack Straw -> Bertha opener was also great (sans the Phil loose string sounding bass) and the Scarlet -> Victim -> Fire was quite nice as well.

The longtime Head who sort of hosted a bunch of us at the show had moved from Colorado a decade earlier, basically to see the Dead more often. Around 93 or 94 I asked him for some of his favorite attended shows (he'd seen a few hundred), so I might repay his kindness with some tapes. He said my first two of 8/16/91 and 10/31/91 were as good as any he'd seen. Whether he was just being lazy, nice or couldn't remember at the time, I still considered it lucky to have jumped in with those two shows. Hell, 2 Dark Stars if nothing else....

I have just had a check, and notice that 5/9/77 on vinyl will finally be released on 24th October. Wonder what the world will look like then? If you go back 4 months, both coronavirus and Black Lives Matter were off most people's radar. Then...boom! Hopefully we will all still be around in 4 months to see what happens next.

I don’t have a crystal ball and I don’t know anyone with inside information so I will wait and see what appears. However, amazon.com ( not .co.uk) shows that cd versions of ‘The Grateful Dead’ and ‘Anthem of the Sun (1971 remix) will be issued on 28th August and, as mentioned by LMG, a vinyl version of ’Skeletons ...’ will be issued on 4th September, all by Grateful Dead Records. Amazon do not give any further details so I’m unaware of the track listings and don’t know if they include any extras.
I can't imagine needing any of these reissues and wonder why the first two albums are being issued again so soon after the 50th anniversary discs.
Looking forward to DaP #35 but I hope everyone will have got #34 soon.

For those of us that actually give a shit about charts, this week's UK album chart has Bob Dylan at #1 with "Rough and Rowdy Ways" and Neil Young at #2 with "Homegrown". His bobness, at 79, is the oldest artist to reach #1 with an album of new material. Even if you don't give a shit about charts, it is somewhat surprising to see these two topping the charts in 2020.

I don't want to take anything away from the absolute greatness that is Bob Dylan, and to a lesser extent Neil Young, but I think it also speaks to the dearth of good new popular music out there. Yes, there are great up and coming rock and roll bands and yes there is phenomenal music being created today, but you have to work much harder to find it these days. I'm sure it has a lot to do with how technology has changed and the music business in general, but despite all that, where are all the can't miss bands putting out great new music that isn't overly derivative?

Is this the first time Bob Dylan has had a number one album in the UK, I wondered ? I don't know, but I would think that his last three or four self penned albums were more likely to have hit the coveted spot than any of his 60s albums.

Going back to upcoming releases, there was also 8/21/68 that was due to come out earlier this year, with a free comic thrown in. Seems to have got lost in the rush, that one.

GERHARD, that's funny. I was also having a few beers in the city of ER yesterday. And finally, today was the day I could pick up my DaP 34 (shipping notice said 04/30). Still no sign of the "June 1976" box set (shipping notice 04/08). I am sure the good people from customer service will sort that out, too. But to be honest, this whole waiting game has become just too much for me. I don't think I'll order from dead.net anymore. Of course I'm aware of the current situation all around the world. And I'm truly blessed because Covid-19 has not hit my family and I don't have to worry about losing my job. However, shipping times have grown longer and longer, extra costs have to be paid (today it was 11,20 €, I have no idea why - never had to pay tax for a Dave's Picks, just for the bigger box sets).
Anyway, it's the weekend and I'm sure I'll enjoy Jai-Alai Fronton. Also looking forward to GarciaLive 14 - made me listen to that old "Pure Jerry" single CD release on my way to work this morning, what a sweet duo show that is. Couldn't get hold of GarciaLive 13 but they usually hit the record shops here in Germany sooner or later. And then there's that complete 1971 show coming with WD 50th. Lovely releases ahead.

Garcialive 13 is available on amazon.de although I can understand if you would rather wait to see it in a record store.

OK, I'm a little late to this party, but I could not resist. So I thought about the shows which first got me on the bus. There are plenty of other great shows I saw in many great locations, which made them memorable, also: Frost, the Greek, Cal Expo, Red Rocks, but here goes:

12/31/71 Winterland - My first show

8/24/72 Berkeley Community Theater - tripping at the back of the floor, Dark Star>Morning Dew, that did it I was on the bus

2/24/74 Winterland - the wall of sound in all it's glory

12/31/77 Winterland

10/31/83 Marin Civic Auditorium - We had great seats 10 rows center from the stage, great show

So many shows.....

Hey David, 1968 will be released 7/31
The printing company closed shop over four , five months ago due to virus. Yes, the printing company was the first Party to take a step back and cause delays in the final release date.
Printing is complete and absolutely beautiful!! Records have been pressed and labeled! Get ready to party with the greatest juvenile delinquents on the western! hemisphere, the Grateful Dead! 🙏❤️💀🌹
Have a grateful day everyone, peace be with you all my Brothers and sisters!
*** I never talk about the Garcia releases because that’s not my department but I had to say , Garcia 14 acoustic release! 1986, and it’s a home run! Primo!
...Also I’m not surprised Dylan is number 1 &. Neil Young is 2! They Have both played rock ‘n’ roll on the moon an other outer space mission’s! Lol

Not going to fall into that marketing trap. $100 for a book I don't need that has 38 minutes of an unreleased live show thrown in to help to sell it. By the time international shipping, import duty and sales tax have all been added it would cost me around $150 and I'm just not prepared to pay that much for so little. Sorry but I'm not in on this one. Frankly I would rather they concentrated on getting the music to us rather than trying to separate us from our money with unnecessary and overpriced merchandise. Workingman's dog coat anyone?

Lots of nice boxes there, thanks for the name. Have a shortcut on desktop now to the website. Have to head out now. Luckily its the end of the month and the old folks will be getting the social security checks in the mail. Should be able to order some of these boxes soon!

I have the Complete Recordings of T. Bone Walker from 1940 to 1954 on Mosaic, came out in 1990. They don't carry it at Mosaic anymore, but you can still get it on the secondary market at a reasonable price, CD or lp. It's a knockout!

I hear ya Simon Rob. I’m only getting it cause the Mrs is a book junkie and went ahead and just ordered it. I’m sure I’ll enjoy it once or twice, but not really a comix guy. I’m with you, just release the music, like the whole dam vault ala carte already. Yes some recordings will sound lesser than others but so what, that’s called choice....remember when Mickey was talking about that along with the Terrapin museum etc, something about we hope to have it so you could put your order in upon arrival and we’ll have it ready before you leave.

EDIT: sorry Dennis, lol, your probably like the misses “there’s no such thing as too much” for her with books and you with box sets etc 😉

LMG - thanks for the heads up, I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Simon....I wouldn't buy it off Deadnet, for all the reasons you mention. I was under the impression it would be available from Amazon UK-which might not be much better for you. I have just had a look, and it does seem a bit pricey even there-over £30. 00. Prices on Amazon are up and down more than I am...so I am going to keep a look out and see if it drops a bit in price before splashing out.

I am much more selective, generally, about buying Dead stuff than I was 10-or even 5 years ago. I have noticed I am more attracted to an expensive show on vinyl than a box set on cds from one of the years I am not so keen on. I no longer buy everything without thinking. That's just the music-I have never gone over board on the tee shirts etc-attractive though they look.

Billy I have a feeling you and I were at the same shows many times over the years in the bay area.

Someone mentioned the 12-12 -80 Swing show right after Lennon was killed, I was there and you could hear a pin drop during "he's gone", it was an incredibly moving performance.

I have to add 10/14/80 Warfield theater to my list, unforgetable for the champagne toast from the entire audience to the band when they returned for their encore.

God those were the days.

The version advertised on amazon.co.uk is the paperback version which doesn’t include the LP. When it was first announced in April 2019 the Relix magazine website said that the paperback would come with a download code for some early GD music, however looking at the Z2 comics website now there is no mention of any download code. I wonder if the paperback still includes any music? The hardback is limited to 6800 copies but even after more than a year it hasn’t sold out. I won’t be buying it.
