    "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.

    No to firing. Yes to moving on.

    I certainly wouldn't want Dave to be fired - this series has been great and sacking him would be a terrible way to bring it to a close.
    But he has been seemingly choosing releases for a long time, and it would be quite interesting if a new way of releasing Dead material could be developed under the guidance of someone else. I am not suggesting this in the hope that they would pick shows more to my liking, though.
    I am fed up with the subscription system- ending up with shows that I wouldn't otherwise buy just so I can be sure of getting ones I do want. I have always done this, but I don't think I will next year. If shows could be advertised in advance and sold individually, we could then just buy what we wanted. Surely we are not a conformist group who all like and want the same thing.

    Re: You're Fired

    I don't see them replacing Dave anytime soon.

    If we think having someone else make the picks is going to please this persnickety crowd.. I have a bridge to sell you.

    Plus, they would have to pay an artist the redo the logo, there's no way Rhino would foot the bill for that. Much like Paul McCartney.. Many think Dave has been dead for many years and the new Dave is just a stage actor or completely computer generated. Rhino simply won't spend another $10k on artwork to replace something they already have ready and queued up to print on CD covers.

    [a small footnote, many will recall there was much speculation after a noticeable change in appearance and voice between the seaside chats a few years ago that Dave was no longer with us and had been replaced. Many openly postulated several theories with various levels of proof. Did he suffer a critical injury in a log rolling chainsaw juggling competition? Was he captured by Putin for not releasing enough 80's shows? Was he eaten by a Kraken during a seaside chat gone awry? Too much coffee? ...And my personal favorite, he was kidnapped by a female sasquatch during the "fly fishing" release video for Dave's Picks 32 filmed on one of the gulf islands just off Vancouver. Friends don't let friends track bigfoots alone, especially during mating season!]

    Simple economics. Dave's Picks will continue for the foreseeable future.

    Thanks for the gallery - amazing stuff. Griffin and Kelly/Mouse et al were light years ahead of their time.

    As a side note, a double bill of the Dead and the Miles Davis Quintet would have absolutely left me rung out on the floor, swept up by the janitor post-show. Anyone lucky enough to see this one?

    Keep picking those good ones Dave

    I rarely post but want to send some support to Dave for continuing to pick great shows from all eras. Missed these, was living in Paris at the time but would’ve gone being from Fairfield so it’s great to have them. Love some ‘87 Dead 💀! And they sound awesome. Sometimes the SB ones are too sterile and I like the organicness of the crowd. That’s how I remember them! Keep up The GREAT Work Dave till next year! Cheers 🍻

    My brother and I have some these posters, I believe I gave that Santa Claus poster to my brother for his birthday. Very cool posters. The poster with Garcia & Lightning Hopkins was up in the front window of the Orpheum Theatre in 1976.

    DaP 36 and Merle Haggard

    My DaP 36 has arrived in Germany today!!!
    I saw Merle Haggard at the Oakland Paramount Theatre in 2007.
    It was funny when he said, that in younger years they had groupies around when touring, but now they bring their own nurses.

    DP 36 still lost here also

    I agree with others that I think Dave has done a great job picking and releasing shows. I've been a Dave's subscriber since the series started and am still looking forward to it every year. We've gotten so many great shows.

    This release however, is still lost at sea for me in California, I too have a shipping notice from Oct. 30 that doesn't show anything via either UPS or USPS. Thinking there have been some shipping snafus with this one.
    I'm looking forward to hearing it.

    Yesterday I listened to a good chunk of the second set from Long Beach 1981, Aug 28. I came across a 1980s era vinyl bootleg at my local record store and picked it up. The sound is surprisingly good and the show is inspired for the time. Reallly fun to get an "unofficial release" from times past. "Grateful Dead Live in Long Beach" from Tricky Dick Productions. Good times and good show.

You’re making a fine and productive use of your retirement time.

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!

A just exactly perfect Daves

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.

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! :)
