    "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.

    Mount Rushmore has a secret room that no one can enter. Located behind the facade of Abraham Lincoln, sculptor Gutzon Borglum designed the chamber to hold....

    Free concerts perhaps?

    I'd like to think of the Dead as the band that played in the secret room inside the mountain away from the park police, crowds and tourists.

    Just adding a little flavor to the conversation. It does have a secret room, this part is true.

    Edit: Then.... there's this. Hard to argue, it is written in stone.

    Let me rephrase, if I may . . .

    I certainly did not mean that before Dylan there was nothing happening in rock and roll. But to me, each of the important influences on what we would come to call "rock" music were limited and somewhat self-repeating streams. The great blues artists certainly did some great blues; the seminal folk/country/R&B/etc. artists did amazing things within their own genres. Elvis absolutely blew the door open for Little Richard, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee, Chuck Berry . . .

    But by the mid-Sixties, each artist was still somewhat re-writing what he/she had already written; musically and lyrically pop music had stagnated. The Beatles and Stones were poking at some cracks between genres, but then Dylan came and wiped out everything with the opening chord of "Like a Rolling Stone." After that, folkies could rock, blues musicians could rock, soul artists could rock, and rockers could do whatever they wanted. Now the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Who, and the good ol' Grateful Dead could make rock music about anything, and could draw upon whatever influence tickled their fancy. And after Dylan, the sky was the limit, lyrically. The bands most of us repeatedly listen to were made possible by Robert Zimmerman. Would we still all listen to our Elvis, Muddy Waters, Sarah Vaughan, and Chuck Berry records had Dylan never existed? Undoubtedly. But not like we LISTEN to the Beatles, Stones, GD, Hendrix, Joni . . .

    And of course, I am open to the idea that I could be totally wrong about all this. :)

    If you really mean rock and roll then I think the four heads should be Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry and Little Richard.
    For myself choosing innovators I’d pick Robert Johnson, Mother Maybelle Carter, Jimmy Rodgers and Woody Guthrie.

    got to agree with Daverock

    before Elvis there was nothing but the blues, then came Elvis and the cat was out of the bag. He was the one and only and totally brought rock to the masses. He did it with class and smarts, using his gospel roots to snare all the doubters and win over all the old folks who thought rock and roll was the devil in disguise. He had such class and could deliver a song like no other before him. He isn't called the King for nothing ya know.
    Funny how the conversation has veered to after the Dead bands. I saw them all, when Jer passed, I was left without a compass, he was my guiding light, my go to for all things psychedelic and the one and only. I did not want it to end and went to the first Furthur festival in 96 with Ratdog and loved it, it wasn't over and I had to have more. Then to the Furthur fest in 97 and 98 with the return of Phil to the line up, that one was special and then onward to 2000 with the return of Bruce and Billy, all were special in their own way but that 2000 line up was awesome with Mark K. and Steve K. duel leads was the sh%t. They got it down on that tour and one of my favorites of the post Jerry bands. Saw Ratdog many times back then also, loved every one of those shows as Bobby still had it and was not going to stop the bus. Saw Phil and friends with Warren back in 2001 also, right after his operation and they were good too, not furthurfest good, not ratdog good, but still good and loved the old tunes they brought back. Caught Furthur in 2010 at a 3000 seat auditorium, they were good, real good and John K was the best Jerry to date. Loved his take on Stella Blue, he nailed it. Honorable mention goes to Mickey's band, they were great and I was fortunate to catch them twice and both times they never lost site of what the Dead were all about, improv and great tunes. Love you Mickey.
    Sorry Billy but you were wrong and Trey was not the guy for FTW, he did not have what it took to fill the big guys shoes, IMHO. JK had been playing Jerry for years with DSO and he had the chops and knew the material by heart.
    Honorable mention again to DSO, best cover band yet.
    Yes, it should have been called Fare the Well Phil, but it was a money grab and that's the way it was to be. As I look back on these 25 years after Jerry has left us, I see the bus, with many different colours, still rolling down the road and will until they all leave us. Long live the Grateful Dead

    Before Elvis there was nothing

    Thus sprake John Lennon. A bit overstated, perhaps, but the way Elvis welded blues, country, gospel, pop...whatever was to hand... was visionary. The recordings made for Sun still sound immaculate, and there is a great dvd called "Elvis in 1956" which shows him gravitate from cult to world wide fame in 12 easy months. Brilliant T.V. performances.
    In the notes for the 5 disc set "Complete 50's Master's", Scotty Moore describes his guitar work as "ancient psychedelia".
    Truly out of this world.

    I think even Dylan would agree that rock n roll did not begin with a white guy! :) It was much deeper than that, thats partially why it was so controversial in society at the start.

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a6Kv0vF41Bc. Deadheadbrewer, you make an excellent point. Here's where it all began, Dylan backed by members of the Paul Buttetfield blues band. So who's on your Mt . Rushmore of Rock & Roll.

    Rock and roll BEGINS with Bob Dylan, no? :) (I humbly submit that it does . . . ) After Dylan rocked out, the Beatles and Stones were freed from being excellent Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry imitators respectively, and could then become the twin towers of soul-searing rock and roll. No?

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.

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! :)
