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.

    I'm into the first disk and I like it a lot. The audience makes it more like your there in a way. I agree with gratefulhan and I'm also Italian and my mother still cooks all sorts of Italian dishes including a drop off of meatballs and chicken soup today at my apartment. You have to love mothers. Fugettaboutit!

    Jimbo, the hot out of tune woman made me laugh. I go to concerts all the time and sing. Last show I saw was with my cousin; we caught Dead & Co at MSG 11/1/19. I recorded the closer on my phone (Brokedown Palace). When I played it back the next day I could barely hear the band. I turned to my cousin and said "please don't tell me I've been singing in your ear like this for 30 years." He said it's usually too loud for him to hear me, but I'm usually in tune. He's a really good guy.

    I'm listening to the Jones Gang intro. I missed the anniversary of Colgate 11/4/77 a couple days ago....I love this release. Not a missed note. Pretty sure that's the Wolf Jerry's handling. I don't recall a cooler first 2 minutes to Stella Blue; something spacey and ethereal about it. The Let It Grow is also on my top 1 or 2 list. The short Other One rips...all great stuff.

    I have this one and some goodies from the other 3 shows in the first week of November queued up for the day.

    These shows are a steaming pile....

    A steaming pile of goodness that is to say! My analogy is that of my grandmother's cooking- I am half Italian so I grew up with that type of cuisine. I think of these shows as if i had my grandmother's cooking and getting a fresh bowl of rigatoni and meatballs right out of the pot. Well the music in these shows are like the main course and that steam is audience. The meal wouldn't be complete with just the taste, but adding the aroma filling the air...Bellissima!

    Seriously, I had some slight reservations about the mix but they are gone. The audience is there but mainly doesn't overpower the music. Musically, they were really amped up, I thought. Lots of energy and tight playing. Very enjoyable. Its going to take me a bit to go through these shows. I am still listening to #35, and the 2/18/71 show as well. Overall, I am happy as we got another good pick from Dave L.

    Ha.. burned into my cerebral cortex forever are the words to Friend of the Devil, sung loud, off key and in the wrong timing by a super hot woman at a show while she was standing or more staggering on her chair next to mine.. falling into me at least a couple times during the song. Fortunately, 2/3 through the first set she was too wasted to stand in her chair anymore and my guess is she only knew a few words to FOTD, UJB and Touch of Grey.. neither of the latter were played that night.

    It's all good though, she had a good time and I am left with that extremely vivid memory.. one of a choice few where I was surrounded by hotties at shows. You have to take the good with the bad in life.. right?

    My favorite Grateful Dead covers

    Smokestack Lightning, King Bee, Same Thing, Big Boss Man, Death don't have no Mercy, Morning Dew, Sing Me Back Home, The Race is on, Viola Lee Blues, We Bid You Good night, Vision of Johanna. I really liked the way they did Don't don't Ease Me In, but
    only the versions before 1974, the last cool version they did was 2/17/79, then they reworked it. I'm sure I missed some.

    JIMINMD, I'm in the same boat. Mine arrived in New Jersey on 10/29 and supposedly left the Bridgeport UPS Mail Innovations facility on 10/30. However, USPS has not received it. It's not unusual for packages to arrive to that Bridgeport hub and sit for days but this is a first in which it received a departure scan AND transferal scan to my local post office, all this showing up on the Mail Innovations tracking. But I doubt USPS has gotten it yet because the Bridgeport hub is notorious for delays and loss of packages.

    The Mail Innovations tracking page also states: "Mail Innovations is not a day definite service." You don't say, eh? Still scheduled to be delivered on 10/30. Ha! I would certainly pay extra to avoid Mail Innovations altogether. Keep it first class USPS.

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.

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

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! :)
