    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.

    DAVE'S PICKS 36

    I pre-ordered this right away. My first show was 3/27/87. So i was very excited. After listening to the first set , (DISC 3), I was extremely disappointed on the sound quality. It's all crowd....At best, this sounds like a below average audience bootleg. I am very surprised because 3/26 was David Lemieux’s first show. I really thought this release would be presented much better, due to that fact and plus it was SPRING 87. Jerry's BACK !!!!!
    I think I could have found better quality on Archive.org
    I remember when WNEW 102.7 FM, in New York City, aired one of the Meadowlands show's in April 1987. My friend recorded it and it was a killer tape. Wish Dave's 36 was as good as that !!!! Ending the 2020 Pick's on a sour note

    I'm not so sure this experiment is working. The crowd noise is controlled, in my view, like a laugh track on a sitcom.
    I, for one, don't like to be told when or how express my emotions, especially at a GD show. Some suit at Warner Brothers signed off on this, so keep up the feedback, gang! I'm only through disc 1, and I'm lovin' it, regardless.

    To Jim in MD, I fell off my chair once (Duke, 04/12/78), into a lovely young lady's lap...during Peggy O, and today we've been happily married for 37 years. What an introduction! By the way, I was not drunk, but triple dosed. She thought I was an A-hole!

    Ghastly idea. Another good reason to avoid rock music in Arena's by the sound of it.

    I can relate ...

    ... to what KETUT is saying. My concert-going experience was pretty similar: attending shows regularly during the late '70 and early '80s when the band was still playing relatively small places and still a little under the radar as far as the mainstream culture went, and then not at all after "Touch of Grey" hit and everything got so much bigger. (To be fair, it was also partly because my life changed and I couldn't just drop everything and drive 200 miles to see the Dead at the drop of a hat anymore.)

    Mass singalongs are a big part of the arena rock experience, and a lot of people apparently like them, and who am I to say there's anything wrong with that? But it's not why I go to concerts, and certainly not why I went to Dead shows. It's also not what I want in a live recording. But hey, it's OK to have this one release where the crowd is so audible, for the people that like that kind of thing. I just hope it's not a trend.

    Nice two shows . Happy to have them. Audience volume a bit much for me at times. In the minority, but hoping these hybrids aren’t the shape of things to come. If it’s what we got, so be it.

    Edit:
    Acclimating quickly enuf 2nd time around. This is a solid release. It Isn’t a Kinks Live at Kelvin Hall level album destroyed by an audience screaming track. (It’s a loop on that one IIRC played non-stop on one track the whole album—course that was ‘67.)

    Dave’s pick 36, Hartford civic center 3/26/87-3/27/87

    I have a comment and a question. My comment is, this show, is absolutely amazing! I bought this as a gift to my wife, which we haven’t bought a actually cd box set in a long time! I’m so happy I preorder it. Because we play it so much, and every time it makes me smile ear to ear.
    My question, does this set come with a digital download code? I sent a message to help, explaining that my new truck I purchased for work. Doesn’t even have a CD player in it. Which is just crazy to me, but the dealership told me, yeah, they will be fading out the CD player in all cars soon. Which make me think. I’ve gone through so many different formats of music. But I guess digital right now is the best, since it’s there forever. Any who, if anyone knows let me know! Thanks everyone! NFA!

    DAVE’S PICKS 36: HARTFORD CIVIC CENTER, HARTFORD, CT (3/26-27/87

    Great selection of songs though not a fan of the incessant audience. My last shows were in the summer of 1987. Tickets in hand, we were maced by an over zealous security guard just after some of you assholes crashed the gate. Unfortunately, hearing the audience above the band especially after each solo brings back that experience. I was blessed to be able to see shows 5-6 times a year between 76 and 87. But after summer 1987 it was clear the focus was no longer on the band and getting music out to the people. Thanks to the folks at Dead.net and Garcia.com for continuing to provide awesome content.
    I hope future DP releases are true soundboards with minimal audience.

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.

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! :)
