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.

    Dave-you were at same show as we were!

    Davey Davey this is THE one! The best of the lot hands down with 78 Hartford and Cornell 77 (Was not there for Cornell or 77 but got on bus in 79 down road at SUNY for us "Dumb stateys" my kids made it back in skipped 2 generations)...I agree totally on the crowd- we were so ecstatic after nearly losing Jerry summer before- that is why energy of this show is so sparkly clean and bright...its redeeming...truly thanks for remembering this show -its been long time coming for me-no tapes of this one for me...yes! Good Lovin'

    Forgot to nention best Headlight on Northbound train maybe ever! Post coma grace of God was not Jerry's Black Peter-and Black Peter is great-every song is standout-sound maybe not deep as others but 87 soundboard Healy? what gave...still--this is raw best Dead you can get hands on--put it into good stereo and use the dials and this can override port to mp3 i converted witth 150k -not enough mem for lossless and what good would that do anyway--Yee haw--this is awesome--Jerry is still the undisputed heavy weight guitar champ of live performance ever imho and I respect hell out of Carlos Santana Robert Fripp (Okay never saw Hendrix) Clapton--yep he is the best highest quality soul you can find---just listen and learn rest of you aspiring guitar players- See hear how everything leads up to this day....

    Man-this is the best straight DOD Rader SW guy show- I recall from 87 booke hotel with my wife of 10 months and headed to Hartford view overlooking Capital-peak life great weekends..went to Dinosaur print park for lame but super cool side trip-recall Margarita's pre-show at Margaritaville or similar digs in center-and then Whammo-2 of greatest nights ever of Dead musical peak 87-90-Jerry's wailing vocals on He's Gone are my only memory of seeing Jerry do that abandoned into vocals-relatively shy man for a lifer on stages- Bobby Brent and Jerry all peak-drum solo segway sample last 2 to 3 mins spectacular-Jerry experimenting like he was still rediscovering guitar like new toy! Oh man to relive that weekend again-Great North Special kind of feeling like to take this ride again and again..thanks Dave for truly being man of good taste in spite of limited edition BS Jerry would loathe-I say open gates and release this to as many as can sell as nobody will not want this-i will never sell it on eBay )unless its in my estate heir hands) many I am happy to say I would download. to iTunes and greedily sell for no profit-but this one is a keeper! Before days my spouse would veto show on road and just before epic Broadway Jerry Birthday show of 87 i would say 26-27 years old life does not get much better man! USA was still USA-no cell phones, no internet-Mail order tix decent 1st promenade, orchestra 2nd night--FIrst Touch of Grey for me and the WE will get buy was EPIC truly not commercial newbie tour feel yet at all...and Jerry just blues riffing on 2nd night now drums-he is on fire...just speechless...f-ing Garcia is the Sun with a beard!

    Mine has been sitting in a UPS facility since 28th waiting to be transferred to USPS. I’m hoping that this is because USPS is concentrating its resources on getting all the postal votes to their destinations for counting but that’s probably a pipe dream.
    I recommend voting because at least then you have taken part and can celebrate or moan about the result with a clear conscience.

    Prima facie, I was astounded at the seeming-low quality of the sound on DaP36. But the crowd noise really helped me get into the mood, and after a great Row Jimmy, the Bird Song and Promised really floated my boat. I just started set two, and after hearing plenty of tasty Jerry on China Cat and thinking about where my mind would have been had I been at this show after Jerry's return from his coma, LEAPED from my chair to shout, "I wish I was a HEADLIGHT . . . on a northbound TRAI-AI-AI-AINnnn . . . ! " along with the crowd, tears in my eyes. Then I found myself pumping my fist at the end of LLR as the band keeps driving the song higher and higher.

    DaP 36 is pretty cool, to my ears.

    Just saw that a box set of early Joni appeared over the weekend. I'm going to hop right on that! Here's some early Joni killing it on Me & My Uncle, for those who haven't seen it:
    https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2ounix

    And I feel for the European Heads who can't get their discs in a timely fashion. Fed Ex just came to my MN door with a large box of classical CDs from Presto Classical in Britain; they were shipped Wednesday (and we don't even have package delivery on Sundays)!

    Vote for kindness. It's the only plan that affects all equally.

    Sp87 Crowd, Dave's B&P

    In his 36 essay, Dave writes:

    "...I vividly remember every second of this show, from the instant the lights went down and the band walked onstage. Every song, every solo. And one thing that I can still feel, maybe because I was part of it, is the crowd reaction. There were so many distinct, special moments that elicited huge responses from the crowd...."

    This is definitely a big part of Sp87: Huge crowd reactions celebrating Garcia's rebirth, so to speak. I'm not always the biggest fan of matrix recordings, but I think it works on these shows that are, btw, loads of fun and high energy. (And to the defense of the matrix - even though I usually opt for the pure SBD in the archive - sometimes a SBD can sound rather lifeless, something these recordings definitely are not.)

    As for the Dave's B&P model (wink wink), considering that XLIIs will run you about $50-60 for a 5 pack, these days, I'd say we're still getting a pretty great deal on the subscriptions. For me, it's a no brainer every time. Love it!

    PS: Today's 30 days of dead pick (second set of the show) would be a neat filler for Dave's 37. Unique setlist.

    Spring tour '87

    were the frst East Coast shows post-coma recovery, so the crowd energy and gratitude for still having what we came very close to losing and love for Jerry and the Grateful Dead was extremely high and it felt mutual and symbiotic from the band. Candyman, & Touch of Grey from Philly on this tour are good examples.

    The tour soundboards are, I believe, Healy matrix mixes heavy on the AUD microphones, so they don't sound much like crisp SBDs like the Bettys we are used to. That has always disappointing to me, but these shows were hot and I'll take 'em as good as they are ever gonna sound.

    Sorry for the interruption!!

    There are times in life you say, what the fuck!

    First I couldn't believe you'd release two collections with the same name,,,, Angel's Share. Granted my fault,,, I kept seeing Angel's Share and checking my stuff and thinking yeah I got it. Today I realized (through someone else asking me about American Beauty version), that there are indeed two.

    FINE! I can live with that.

    Went online, ordered, got email, clicked download and got this bullshit about some other software to download first. Why the hell should I need ANYTHING extra to do a simple download!!!?!?!?!?!?

    Tried a few times, now it doesn't even take me to a page where download is possible,,,,, more like a commercial page!!!!

    Customer service from this "50th anniv american beauty,,,, gnarlywood or whatever is just a handjob and useless.

    Anyone else have these issues? Hate to cry "Mary". I will continue my search for the download or help, but ANYONE else have any words on the subject?

    Sorry for the terse attitude, but something simple like a download???

    Should have used Amazon!

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! :)
