    "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.

    My Mt. Rushmore of Rock & Roll

    Here is my Mt. Rushmore of Rock & Roll, Grateful Dead, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Chuck Berry. I know, I left some heavyweights off the mtn. (Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan) but I only had 4 choices and I'm going with those 4.

    ...Holly Bowling....man, she is inspiring! Her 'Wilderness Sessions' were nothing short of spectacular; the settings, the majesty, the f'n JAMMING on piano in and out of GD and Phish, she is a true talent in her craft. Wildly recommend checking out her stuff if you haven't already; as an example:

    Anybody ever catch these guys?

    John K on guitar and vocals
    Jay Lane on drums
    Reed Mathis on bass and vocals
    Jeff Chimenti on organ

    I caught a show at the end of '18 in a small venue at Martyr's in Chicago and had a blast.

    I find things I like in most of the modern incarnations.. It's easy to be critical and there was a terrific void to fill. I am content in seeing the torch still burning and really do enjoy what Phil is doing/has done, D&C, Furthur and others.. JRad and DSO serve a need without any surviving members in their bands. Hollie Bowling serves a need. What Warren has done. It's a richer world with GD music and it's great to see new artists add to the pudding. It still seems fresh after all these years.

    Can't wait for live music to return!

    I concur heavily with all that has been touted and said of appreciation regarding Further. And hell, DSO is up there too, I caught many a show when they were in their original/JK form. Some of the best "Dead" shows I ever caught. I recall seeing them up in Hamptom Beach, NH many years ago and they played a killer show from summer '76....I was in heaven.

    Oro, your last line in there sums it up perfectly, and we should all feel proud and satisfied in so many ways - not withstanding holding up the tent poles for so long to keep allowing new folks to discover the hidden circus inside.

    Be Well People.

    Furthur More

    If pressed I’d have to say I liked them the best outta all the wonderful post JG units I was fortunate to experience; Furthur Fest bands, the Other Ones, Phil & Phriends, The Dead, Furthur, D&C etc..
    seeing Phil early on at the Denver Philmore was besides awesome, reassuring and reaffirming; yeah Jer Bear was gone and it was never gonna be the same, but the music would live on! And all those groovy old school tunes I either saw brief, later years versions, or never saw at all, were a fine consolation. But something about Furthur really moved me, literally to tears the first time I saw them at Broomfeild. It felt like a band, and no disrespect to anyone, but like The Who and others “legacy” bands have learned, there’s something about having a young guy on the skins that gives the whole band more life imho...Molo was fine, but Joe felt better.
    And Totally what DHBrewer said, only we were getting in VIP for free at bigger, but half empty venues. .Really mellow like the old days of Dead.
    Kinda wild that 25 years after the real deal, we’ve been so fortunate to have all the “other ones” we’ve had. A true testament to not only the music, but this culture that we’ve not only kept alive, but have fostered yet another generation on the preverbal bus!
    All aboard!
    ONWARD!

    LOVED that band! Plus, you could pay $50 to see them in theaters that hold 3000-5000 fans, rather than $150 to see them in a football stadium with 40,000 of your closest friends. I've enjoyed the three Dead & Co. shows I've seen, but not like I enjoyed the three Furthur shows I caught.

    Truly was special. When I heard it announced and it would be Bob and Phils first band together in many years I had to fly out for their first shows during the Oakland run. Loved that Joe Russo was pulled into the dead orbit he is one my favorite drummers. Coming from the East coast he was a major staple in many years of shows in NYC with the Duo and his other side projects. Billy's comments were not pleasant and ya gotta wonder what he was thinking at that time and if someone just caught him in a surly mood, not the personality I had come to expect from him but who knows. John absolutely should've been the guy over Trey, hands down. I would've preferred Kimock but with all the past drama I kinda figured that would never happen major bummer. Kimock was gifted pedals and equipment by Jerry including a vintage Mutron. Wouldve been nice to hear a guitarist who knew Jerry personally, had some his equipment, and embodied yhe spirit of the music more holistically. I know Trey gets it but his playing choices usually lose my interest at numerous points in a night. He's great but not my cup of tea. I've said before on here, it wasn't "Fare Thee Well" it was "Fare Thee Phil." :) As soon as Bobby started hinting at the band not stopping but Phil was...I got the impression it was ON. Dead and Company have been plenty of fun too albeit a little more mellow. They should throw a massive reunion of side projects, Dead and Co., and Phil & Friends for a 21st century acid test. Freak freely in the 21st my friends, buckle up kids, the music never stops!

    I concur. They were a great band. I saw many iterations of the remaining members, but none really grabbed me until Furthur. It is highly unlikely that I would have gotten back into the GD as much as I have without having seen them.

    John K. fit in very well with both Furthur and Phil’s group. Oro - your are correct. Jackie Greene with Phil was top notch stuff.

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! :)
