    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.

    Dick's 36 and Booklet

    I was wondering now that Dave's 36 mached Dick's full output at 36 whether they would issue a similar version of the booklet covering cross referenced of the output. I understand Dick's was over but this is the 10th year. It would be nice

    DaP 36 is stuck in 1971

    So my copy of DaP 36 is in limbo. For me like those in the US, these are shipped initially through UPS and the transfered to USPS for the final leg of the delivery. The UPS tracking lists mine as out for delivery on 10/30/2020. The USPS tracking states it is waiting on its arrival - shipping label created on 10/30/2020. Can't win for tryin'.

    However as often, I like to go with the sci fi time travel theory explanation: I think my copy of DaP 36 is stuck in a time vortex in 1971. In this very vortex, my DaP 36 dislodged my AB 50th copy which has arrived 2 days early of its targeted date. I am spinning the 2/18/71show now. I am following that up with Duane Allman's last 2 shows 10/15/71 (which was delivered today too) and 10/17/71. So yeah, I think I will let the good year of 1971 keep me busy.

    I am thinking that the secret to getting my DaP 36 may be somehow encoded in the "Beautiful Jam" segment of the 2/18/71 Dark Star.

    I get it man.. then are beginning to make it hard for us completist. I am beginning to question their Crack (emphasis on the word crack) Marketing Team.

    I missed out on a season of the singles collection.. and I only cared about it until I didn't have it anymore, than I was like fuckit.

    And so it is.

    Keep it simple, Rhino.. we are and have always been easily distracted. Did somebody say Squirrel?

    According to the tracking information, my copy has arrived in the Netherlands. How long it will take to be delivered depends mainly on what action the customs choose to undertake - hopefully none.

    overall, any official release is welcome. the 26th is good. The 27th is ok, but I haven't listened to that at full volume.

    87 has a meh attitude from me because the only show I saw that year was 7/19/87, my first show in three years (GD cancelled October 85 in Tacoma and Portland...still pissed about that), and 86 was the "the year Jerry nearly died".

    7/19/87: glad I went, but the GD sets were limp. Set with Dylan was great.

    Playin' jam was like...2, 3 minutes? then into He's Gone...

    but that's not Daves 36.

    Disc 1 wins (Desolation > Birdsong....LOVE IT)
    Disc 2 wins, although post-Space is kinda bland. All through Space is fiiiiine.
    Disc 3 at least has a Cumberland in set 2 out of S&D
    Disc 4 has UJB > Morning Dew

    that's how it stands today; you decide if Dave was wise.

    Parking meters...no, wait, TRACTORS.

    DaP 36

    I have worked my way through UJB in the second show (Dew and JBG await on my ride home) and here is my opinion-- I love this release. My first show was Alpine 1988, so this is close to my era and thinking back to my tapes, 1987 was very well represented-- these are solid 1987 shows. While I prefer the older stuff, this release works for me.

    I was playing it Friday and Saturday nights after the family was sleeping and I was in a good frame of mind. Sound-- the audience levels don't bother me and they level down over the course of each set. In my opinion, the audience adds some energy. I left the room briefly and when I returned, I said to myself, "It sounds like a Grateful Dead concert."

    The music-- these sound like fun concerts. If these had been my first shows like they were for Dave, I would have never looked back after getting on the bus. From the Midnight Hour to Quinn the Eskimo, night one smokes-- just a fantastic rock and roll concert. Night two, the only complaint is a short post-Drums/Space sequence, but it features a rare UJB in that slot and a Morning Dew. Everything was well played. I very much like this release.

    I also like Dave's liner notes. What a mom-- even scoring him a hotel room near the venue. I imagine those high school kids had some stories to tell when they got home!

    Joni was playing At Red Rocks in Morrison CO for first show at the venue (after Dead's only show 8/12/1979 as rained out to McNichols which was good for ticketless me and pal out for summer) recall talking to smoking girl in the VW Bus hitched ride in from Ft.Collins on was surprised she was more psyched to see Joni than the Dead-and we were reading SAME CARLOS CASTANED BOOK ON JOURNEY TO IXTLAN0- not meant to be fore me lol-it did not turn out as I had hoped w girl- but she was almost right on Joni (not quite) -Jone is in my jazzier more recently acquired taste for me- that is so 60s with her pronunciation Anglifying it for TV...man oh man pre-hippy Joni cool!

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! :)
