    "And with this incredibly tight batch of prime 1987 Grateful Dead, we’re thrilled to bring you Dave’s Picks Vol. 36, matching the number that will be forever tied to Dick’s legacy. Thanks for sticking around this long, and for joining us through these past nine years of archival live Grateful Dead releases." - David Lemieux

    We're doing things a bit different for this one - two complete shows on four CDs, bringing you one of Dave's faves and what very well could have been one of Dick's Picks. Yep, back-to-back nights from peak era 80s - the furthest we've gone into the decade, in fact - that will bring you to joyful tears. DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 36: HARTFORD CIVIC CENTER, HARTFORD, CT (3/26/87 & 3/27/87) delivers emotional takes on tracks like "Row Jimmy," "Black Peter," Uncle John's Band," and serves up a hit list of covers ("In The Midnight Hour," "Good Lovin'," "Desolation Row," "Promised Land," "Little Red Rooster," "Morning Dew," Johnny B. Goode") that'll have you hootin' and hollerin'.

    Limited to 22,000 numbered copies, this one has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman and is guaranteed to sell out.

    *2 per order. Very limited quantity available.

    Thanks for the additional information on the recording. However, I would add they wouldn't release any material unless they have an official copy in the Vault. Both Healy and Pearson were employed by the Dead and made recordings for the band.
    That is why it was so important to get the Betty Boards back in the Vault. Without them, they could not release any of those shows.

    I finally received mine and have listened to both shows once. Really good shows and the recording is definitely different. The test for me is will I want to listen again and right now the answer is yes. Best Dave's Picks to date? No, but great part of the comeback and signs of things to come.

    Thanks Billy The Kid

    Glad you got yours Billy - Dead.net has not let me down yet, so I'm sure it will get here eventually....
    I remember you mentioning Village Music in Mill Valley - that was a great record store! Since they closed I have gravitated over to Amoeba and Rasputin in Berkeley. Definitely scored some Dick's Picks there.
    Have you seen any shows out at Rancho Nicasio? It's small, so no Dead & Co, but it's a cool spot for smaller shows, like Sons of Champlin, Asleep at The Wheel, etc. as BBQ on the lawn....well, pre-covid that is.

    My daughter just recently bought a turntable and is collecting records! - I didn't see that coming 10 years ago.
    I gave her my Sgt. Peppers and Are You Experienced records to explore. Kids need a rounded education!

    Some Picks just hit the sweet spot - I've been spending some time today with Dave's 21, 4/2/73 - one of my favorite Dave's Picks. Just hits the spot - I think it's my favorite version of Here Comes Sunshine, slipping beautifully into Me and Bobby McGee - just fantastic stuff.

    Hey Folks,

    Just a small point of correction. This is not an ultramatrix recording. Yes Dan did develop or invent the ultramatrix, but I do not think he started recording this way until 1989, maybe, or later.

    This is a matric recording as it states in the notes. If you look closely after you take out disk 2, the image shows that this is a 2nd generation soundboard. 2nd generation means no masters in the vault. Hence, why they used a matrix. The second gen board still sounds good, but will have some noise or hiss along with it. Then if you look on the last page of the booklet it says "recorded by: Dan Healy and Don Pearson." So Mr. Pearson's audience tape has now been published. I want to congratulate Mr. Pearson for such a good audience tape.

    I have more to write about this release but wanted to at least get the source information enlightened.

    It's great reading the various takes on this release - I'm looking forward to hearing it myself.....but 36 has dropped off the radar... I know a lot of folks have had delays, like there was some kind of massive mail event recently....
    Still - anyone in NorCal gotten their 36 yet?
    I've emailed the customer service folk - I think it is just one person - they ain't the crack equipment crew that swaps out a drum head in a matter of seconds - oh well - at least we finally got rain !
    Take care all and keep rockin!

    I wanted to give this edition of DaP a few listens before making up my mind, but I gotta say, it’s a great release. I don’t mind the audience sound, it takes away the sterile sound some of the releases have had in the past. Thumbs up!

    Ah , ok , thank you for pointing that out. I was unaware of the source of the recordings sourced for this release.

    DaP36 is an UltraMatrix recording, which Healy made on the fly at the show by adding audio from an audience mic to the soundboard recording. Go back about 15 pages in this list to read all about it! :)

Does that Urdu advertisement say anything about the automatic bath and maintenance equipment going on sale for Black Friday?

Urdu is a language predominantly spoken by muslims whose holy day is Friday. I don't know for sure but I suspect this could have a detrimental impact on Black Friday shopping sprees.

Great prices, be sure to read the fine print though.. shipping from Rawalpindi and Islamabad can be a real budget breaker.

Give these folks some credit for understanding and leveraging a deadheads strong passion for cleanliness and personal hygiene. Marketing geniuses to be sure, once they figure out the subtleties of matching the countries they advertise in with the languages commonly spoken in these countries, they are sure to dominate the global automatic bathroom market. Business tycoons in the making and a great stock tip to help your 401k, you heard it first here at dead.net, watch and learn Jim Cramer.

What's the best show to listen to when contemplating the finer points of bathroom automation? Binghamton perhaps, a little over an hours drive from Bath NY. Four shows played in Binghamton from 1970 to 1983.

05/02/70- Harpur College - Binghamton, NY
11/06/77- Broome County Arena - Binghamton, NY
05/09/79- Broome County Arena - Binghamton, NY
04/12/83- Broome County Arena - Binghamton, NY

Edit: this post is going to look pretty silly when they purge this thread of the aforementioned bathroom automation spam written in Urdu.

about household baths is a dirty job, but someone has to do it!
Good work!
Speaking of automated toilets...in many of the mansions we work in there are automatic toilets, some costing thousands of dollars. The GCs generally don’t let us riffraff use the toilets, especially the expensive automated ones. So my old working partner had this thing about poaching toilets, especially if specifically told not to do so lol.
He became quite adept at it including the use of let’s say the worlds greatest female skiers master bath LOL (can’t name names due to NDAs etc)

BINGOTOWN, woohoo 4/12/83 first show tripping (in first row!)

EDIT: I believe they can be customized with gold trim

Has anyone else gotten their copy of GarciaLive 15? I got mine about a week ago. Someone asked how I got so soon, no idea. Then today I got an email say it will mailed in 9 day!?!?! Odd?

Update on the download front for AB - Angel Share. Still no word!

BTW - Garcia Live 15 is alright. The Keystone Korner Jam was very nice. Has Martin Fierro on sax on several cuts, I always enjoy when he sits in.

If I don't type again till after Bird-Day, hope everyone has a good one. Got 25 lbs of young tom waiting to be rubbed and baked, followed by a good basting and baking of said cook.

Enjoy

Funny you mention about Garcia 15, I was wondering the same thing. I’m glad you got yours. Nothing here, but tracking said mine just left New Jersey, and as I’m in the Toronto area, it will sit at customs until it is Garcia 17. Looking forward to it, the two tunes I’ve heard were incredible. The Garcia family has done a great job on this series, offering up stellar shows (but I liked the Pure Jerry series too)!
Happy (early) Thanksgiving to all of you celebrating this week! You have all endured this horrible pandemic, a tough national election, and some tough economic times. You deserve a great time with family and friends.

Hi All,

Still no DP36 for me in California. I have contacted the customer service twice and they said they would get something shipped out from warehouse, but it has been almost two weeks and no notice of a new shipment. This one hasn't gone down well for me.

Does anyone know if there is still a Dr Rhino? Can someone share contact email for Dr Rhino?
Feeling like that is the next step. Customer service calls don't seem to be getting me anywhere.

Did other people who were still waiting a week or two ago in US get their cds ?

U.S.P.S. tracking had my Dav36 on 10/30 at a post office in The Bronx N.Y. -- where I live. And then. . .. nothing for weeks! No information was updated during those weeks. It finally arrived 11/17 without a delivery notification email alert. I see you are in California and Daves are routed through Carlsbad Ca. Go figure? Good luck!

At some point Thanksgiving morning, our boys now always ask about when we're going to listen to Alice's Restaurant. Makes me proud.

Here in the Twin Cities we have a group of musicians who re-create most of The Last Waltz live each year. They dress up and do all the stage banter and it's great fun. They used to do it Thanksgiving weekend, but more recently they've moved it to other times of the year, when folks aren't out of town.

For those of you who are annoyed by such, I suggest the 9/19/70 Dark Star.

Happy Turkey Day to all. After the feast, we pop in Christmas Vacation. Always funny and never gets old.

Last Waltz - Acadian Driftwood is a vastly underrated song and should have been included in the movie.

It arrived about a week ago. Just listening to it for the first time tonight. This is some really good stuff.

If you like vocals, you might be disappointed. I am not.

Contacted the store about three times now with the same automated response after they had to replace my original order. If I ever see the light of day with this package that would make my year but seriously just so disappointing to see this from Warner Music >:(. Otherwise, very grateful for everything and everyone on here, y'all rock! :)
