    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.

    Fabulous post. That sums up most of my thoughts about the new DaP as well. Its not my my favorite, but it fills a need. It hits the spot for me in the afternoons, when I'm working or doing stuff around the house. I dont fault Dave one bit for picking this as his #36.

    Haven't done a last 5 in forever :)

    5) Phish 1998-11-11 at Van Andel Arena, Grand Rapids MI. My first Phish show, and probably only my 4th or 5th show of any sort. Could close my eyes and almost remember being there. I can't believe that ticket stub is old enough to drink now. *sigh*

    4) Beatles White album. Listening to Phish made me think of it.

    3) Moody Blues - Every Good Boy Deserves Favor. Everybody knows what the title is a reference too, right ?

    2) 11-10-73 Winterland Box. No big spacey Dark Star or Other One jam, but lots of juicy intermediate jams. WRS, followed immediately by PLayin - UJB - Morning Dew - UJB - PLayin double decker sandwich, with a Truckin' - Sugar Magnolia - Wharf Rat right on its heels. Probably they were leaving a little in the tank for a the closing night of the run. That'll be in my next last 5.

    1) The Wes Montgomery Trio -- A Dynamic New Sound. Really nice and mellow vibes along with my morning coffee. Even the dog knew to leave me alone for this fleeting moment.

    0) Kevin Eubanks, Opening Night. Yup, that Kevin Eubanks. I have a nice vinyl copy of this. Just flipped it over to side 2, as a matter of fact. Mr Eubanks looks like an absolute playa from the cover. Also its one of the best jazz guitar albums I've ever heard.

    Given Up On Getting DaP 36 Anytime Soon

    The good news is, my shipping label was created on 10/30. The bad news, that's the last update on tracking. Thankfully, some kind soul laid the music on me and I got my first listen between last night and this morning.

    Coming off a complete listen to Winterland '73, which is really one of my favorites and something I have not done since it was released all those years ago, this was quite the shock to the system and a nice palate cleanse.

    The shows are extremely hot for the era, Garcia is inspired and at times on fire. Of the four sets, I seemed drawn to set one of 3/26 the most and I am normally a second set person. To be honest, this is a good accompaniment to the April '84 Spectrum show. At times on both releases Jerry's playing is amazing. Clean tones with lots of note stretching and sustain, he mostly makes his notes and chord changes on time and drives the music to some interesting and hard-driving places. There is a ferocity to his playing at times during all three shows, typical for a barn burning 80's show.

    I like all era's, but truth be known late 67 to 74 is my sweet spot. The jazzy, almost classical compositional GD coming off their creative period and before that primal dead. Add in the crisp recordings and thoughtful mixes common in the early years and it’s heaven. I like later era stuff too, and some of the energy and guitar work here is guitar god stuff. It's very Garcia centric, he is the loud one in the mix and he seems to dominate big sections of these four sets.

    I have one general comment about this release, keeping in mind I am not a big fan or crowd noise with my soundboards.. this one is best enjoyed LOUD. It just does not sound right at half volume. If you have the opportunity to really crank it up.. move the volume just to that 'safe' limit that does not threaten your hearing later in life... and it begins to take on a life of it's own. This was after all 1987. Jerry fresh off his addiction and coma and had a new zest for life.. but more than that, this is how the sound had evolved. Post hiatus, they began playing in small venues, theatres, etc. In the late 70's / early 80's they continued their theatre preference but began opening up to colleges and small one-off venues. By the early 80's more and more people were showing up and small venue fatigue set in so they migrated to both indoor and outdoor sheds like the Hartford Civic Center. Never sexy and not always the best acoustics but these venues both amplified the raw power of a crescendo or climax in the music and the reactionary edge of the crowd at any given moment. These indoor arenas in particular became sweat houses full of rowdy energy from the band and the crowd. In all the indoor shows I saw in the mid to late 80’s, I cannot think of one I did not leave with a feeling of elation and dripping in sweat. Think Hartford Civic Center, the Centrum, MSG, Carrier Dome, Augusta Civic Center etc. The floor of Madison Square Garden is supported by big springs so you can feel the building move in reaction to the stomping of the crowd and this energy finds its way into the music. This was the environment they played in and people reacted to these fiery, high-energy shows. Like I said, I am not a huge fan of an audience components in my soundboards, but one release in 36 seems an acceptable number and although I did not make these shows they seem to do a decent job representing what the spring tour in ’87 sounded like.

    One last comment, I understand this release is not for everyone. I will give it some repeat listens but there will come a time when this one begins to get comfortable in it’s home on the shelf. We should not be surprised shows like this get released. Even if it’s not your favorite there are many out there that eat this stuff up and love it. Shows like this need to get released. They are rich in historical content and the band has a responsibility to the extent they can, to preserve and restore these historic recordings for antiquity. We typically get one per year, if you subscribe there is no cost for this compared to the cost of buying three shows ala carte. My two cents.

    Ledded, agree. DaveRock, you can bet 2021 will have The Ark and at least one other quintessential primal dead injection that you simply cannot live without. Ark Ark. If noting else, we are creative and unpredictable.

    Ark. I say phil my dog has no Ark, NO Ark, how does he smell, Blooming Arkful..

    Thank God for Owsley (on so many levels) but in this instance for recording all the Dead shows right from the beginning. Even on into the 80s when we lost that marvelous analog tape and went to a digital cassette, the magic is still sometimes there.

    There's no other band with a legacy like this, where they have a top-notch outfit like Rhino putting out multiple releases from multiple eras - every single year. Yes, despite the occasional customer service fail Rhino is a first-tier music distributor. They give new life to old recordings from dozens of bands.

    Along with the Dead never playing the same song the same way twice, getting these releases every few months is just musical nirvana, at least for me. I am beyond Grateful for this music and all the people involved in putting it together. I have nothing to complain about. No one is perfect, when I don't get something just exactly right at my job every time I'm glad there's not a line of angry miscreants standing there to rake me over the coals.

    Last five:

    AC/DC - Power Up (best since Flick of the Switch; Brian Johnson back in top form)
    Rival Sons - Feral Roots
    The Meters - Kickback
    Grateful Dead - 6/11/76 Boston Music Hall
    Stanley Turrentine - Don't Mess With Mister T.

    Having so far not re-subscribed I am sincerely hoping that Dave releases more shows of the quality of numbers 35 and 36 next year. It will be just my luck that he opts for an Ark 1969 show or something. Hopefully he will concentrate on the 80s and 90s for a while.

    My Two Cents Worth

    DaP36 offers a unique way to listen to the Dead. We have hundreds of soundboards of varying quality, but this release really puts one "there," in a way that no other releases do. I appreciate that aspect.

    DaP36 fills a hole in the timeline of official releases. For me it's cool to hear what the band was up to at every part of their journey, and we had no official releases from early 1986 through summer 1987. As with DaP35, Dave has recently filled some holes in the puzzle we all love putting together. Whether a release is THE BEST show ever sometimes can take a back seat to fleshing out the skeleton.

    DaP36 is really fun! Once my ears adjusted, I enjoyed the audience's enthusiasm and the band's energy. I would have enjoyed being at these shows, and at the end of the day, that's all that matters to me.

    DaP36 is a fantastic 50th birthday gift from Dave to us and to himself. This year also marks 21 years of Dave working in the vault, so if he wants us to open our minds a bit to what type of releases are possible, in order to get his first show (and the one that got away) out, then bless him. Most of us would have released our first show looooong before 21 years and hundreds of shows came out, and many of those shows were not nearly as good as 3/26/87. Speaking of first shows, how about 6/24/91 as a four-show Tail-End-of-Summer 1991 Box Set, please, Dave? :)

    Believe it if you need it, if you don't, just pass it on . . .

    best Bird Song

    A lot of people like Cole Field House 1981. Me, I like a lot of them with 3-9-81 MSG holding a special place for me. I can only wish that they had better taped a lot of those early to mid-80's shows. The return of Bird Song in 1980 went off quite well, also. I agree that this DaP 36 version is a burner though. Pre-midi, too. They really piled on the Midi effect on this tune when that was all the rage. Imagine what Grateful Dead with Auto-Tune would have done...

I love The Rolling Stones and -- ain't it the truth that Keith is quite the survivor. Kryptonite. Silver Bullets. Nuclear Bombs. Nothing stops him. If you pounded a stake through his heart then he would just pull it out and have you down for dinner!

Yes old venues are a pleasure for a show. The Furthur shows here in New York City at the Beacon were a treat, and, likewise, Radio City Music Hall plus The Capitol Theater in Port Chester New York.

I would love to get a turn table and collect vinyl LPs. My place, however, is small so perhaps when I have more room. Yet I would not even know how to make a wise purchase on a turntable with stereo system because it has been so long since those days of having one in the family room as a kid, or lad, with the family. The salesman will try to sell me everything. I have got some research and catching up to do.

Holding vinyl albums in your hand and reading the liner notes while admiring the artwork is a pleasure! Everyone "in the know" says that the analog sound is superior to digital. I did get an iBasso DX80 dual audio chip music player used off of eBay which plays flac , wav, etc., and, added extra memory so it hold a tremendous amount of music and the sound is much, much, better than MP3 which is not a surprise.

I did not know about Setzer doing a Christmas show? Not to be callous, but after everything that has happened in Minnesota and that area -- I am surprised the venue is still standing and not a smoldering ruin.

Are we even allowed to celebrate Christmas this year or Hanukkah?

When is a Telecaster not a Telecaster? Is any guitar with a Tele body shape considered a Telecaster? I have a Charvel Tele-style with a natural ash body and two Seymour Duncan humbuckers, and let me tell you a brutal metal sound can be gotten out of that thing. Also a Schecter Pete Townshend model like the one Pete plays in the Eminence Front video. Was always a sucker for the Kenney Jones era for some reason. It too has dual humbuckers with a coil tap and you can dial in anything from twang to crunch.

I have always admired Gretsch guitars, in the hands of other players. I can enjoy handling them in music stores but have never owned one. The necks aren't particularly forgiving. They seem to fight back a little, perfect for the aggressive pick attack of rockabilly... I could see dating one but don't think I could fall in love. Their greatest contribution to rock and roll, imo, is now realized as the Malcolm Young G6131-MY Signature Jet.

Been listening to Roy Buchanan and other blues all morning. Perfect for a chilly Colorado winter day, overcast... blues and strong coffee and a Fender Tele in my hands is feeling just fine. I tore out the stock pickups on this Tele (it's from the 2000's, not vintage) and installed a Roy Buchanan-cloned set. Cuts through nicely, cries and screams like a good Tele should.

Bunch of my friends are getting into the vinyl resurgence. We're all in our 50s and grew up with 8-tracks and vinyl to some extent, of course, then moved away from it but now many of them being older and gainfully employed are getting into filling up their houses with vinyl.

There's something to be said for admiring cover art and holding a record in your hands, and I do love the hisses and pops when the needle drops. The vinyl aesthetic is unparalleled, in my opinion. But I'll argue that the sound is not better. I believe it's an argument rooted in nostalgia and a purist's philosophy. Vinyl, to my ears, even on very high end equipment has a wonderful acoustic warmth, but suffers from midrange boominess and a loss of clarity and definition in the high end. Vinyl sounds like someone placed a pillow over the speakers, to a degree.

Now I know that's not a popular position to take these days, an inconvenient truth, but my ears don't lie. The human ear cannot hear the tops of the waveforms that are cut off by the digital format. Neil Young and Eric Johnson can argue the point all day long, and good for them. It's just my own personal truth after many side by side comparisons through the same speakers and power amp, going from vinyl to remastered cd's, there's no comparison.

Most prominently with Led Zeppelin and Steely Dan, there are buried tracks low in the mix of acoustic guitar and percussion that you can barely hear - or sometimes not notice at all - on the records, while on the cd the full sonic spectrum is crisp and punchy with no loss of bass, just that boomy pillow is removed.

It's cool, I love hanging out at listening parties where everyone gets to place one side on the turntable and drop the needle and pass around the album cover. I pretty much think everything was better in the 60s and 70s - the music and the movies, to be sure - but at the risk of invoking the wrath of purists who insist their high-end system says otherwise, vinyl may be cooler but digital sounds better.

I never owned a turn table but our family had one. Having never listened to vinyl and cd in a side by side comparison, I can not give and informed opinion. I have, however, listened to a cd ripped to mp3 and then transferred to an mp3 Zen Creative player and then plugged the same headphones into a cd player and listened to the same track . . .. and it sounded much better than mp3. Richer. Fuller. Warmer. The same words people who are pro vinyl typically use.

Maybe I won't get the turntable after all?

I don't compare the sounds -playing the cd then the vinyl - between the two mediums, but to me, vinyl has a distinct sound that I really like. It seems to fill the speakers more somehow, and the live records sound a bit more like a live concert than a recording of a live concert. Its hard to put into words. Some cds do sound better than vinyl - and sometimes its the other way round.

Ledded - to me a Gretsch really comes into its own when you try a bit of finger picking. I am very basic on a guitar-but that one pictured as my icon sounds incredible playing the bass strings as rhythm and using the top three for melody. It seems to have echo built into it-but play it through a valve amp with a Memphis Sun echo pedal and your on the way to the moon. The Keeley Ibanez analogue delay pedal is also great for a bit of slapback.

The Jerry/Lobo clip you posted was the night before the AIDS Benefit gig at the Oakland Colliseum Stadium...friends who were backstage hanging with the Lobos & crew before the benefit in Oakland told me that Hugh Romney came walking by ...My partner Mouse (who was one of the 'Bo roadies) yelled out at him "Hey Hugh, how about a picture" Hugh walked over thinking he was taking a picture with them, instead Mouse handed him the camera and friends and crew bunched up for a shot...Hugh stood with the camera for a few seconds then nodded and grinned, snapped the shot and walked away chuckling...Mouse was the one who got a copy of the New George's video for us...there's also video of Jerry playing with them at New George's in '86, supposedly his first post coma appearence in public...

...I swear Jerry says that during one of the Garcia Band performances that was released where Bruce sits in (forget the date, it was a '91'er I believe); I wanna say either right before or just after they do Chuck Berry's 'C'est la vie' (which is the best song from Pulp Fiction IMHO). ....Or maybe it was Breadbox (another JGB favorite).

In between Waiting for a Miracle and think from 11/9/91 Hampton, a few songs after You Can Never Tell (C'est La Vie).

At the end of band introduction we get "...and ole Brucey sitting in"

There's a few late era JGB songs I get.. Bright Side of the Road and Shining Star come to mind. I don't think Jerry ever hit this song out of the park and I wish he got to it a few years earlier when his voice was less haggered.. but I have a soft spot for What a Wonderful World as well.

I forget what my last Garcia Band show was.. but I have a sneaking suspicion they weren't doing many of these then. I tried like hell to see them when they were around, but they didn't venture East nearly often enough. I sure am thankful for the Garcia Band shows I was able to attend. Informal, relaxed, less ticket hype and crowd stress.. and he sure did like to stretch out some of the jams. There were some hard rocking shows mixed in.

...with Brucey sitting in? Didn't realize he made such a late appearance. I shall also check this one out.

Jimmy, great breakdown of the quote. I always loved JGB shows for exactly the reasons you describe. Not so crazy in terms of the scene, but man he would play and jam. My only gripe might be shorter setlists and more often repeats, but at the end of the day it was all fantastic....just like the Good Ole GD.

Sixtus

Yes, SMR is excellent.
Just finished Days Between which was also pretty good.

I like the sound of the hula girl guitar.

This show is good, possibly release worthy. A few vocal flubs in ScarletFire, but overall a good show.

Happy Christmas everybody!

Sad to hear of the demise of Leslie West. I was fortunate enough to witness Mountain live in 1971 at the first Crystal Palace Garden Party in London. The line-up was Quiver, Mountain, The Faces and Pink Floyd. Mountain were impressively loud and powerful. That man sure could play guitar. An influence on many who followed him. Another one gone. Damn.

I did hear back last week regarding my copy that they are aware I have not received my CDs and there is help on the way...

In any case they seem to be short on product for confirmed orders for some reason and are working to resolve it. Guessing by the amount of time all this is taking, it might be they had to make a second, smaller production run??

I'm fine to wait a bit but understand those that are frustrated.

I'm glad y'all have at least gotten recent email responses, my last response was 11/27, I sent a followup seeking a status update on 12/15. Zilch. I don't think an update is asking too much, certainly not with 2 weeks having gone by since I last asked and 4 weeks since they last led me to believe it was being handled, and 8 weeks since I alerted them to their shipping error. Yeah, I'm bitching about cds when worse stuff is going on, but I paid for them, and this isn't my first 2+ month wait for fulfillment on Dave's Picks volumes.

...so I've listened to this gig like 3 or 4 times over the past week or so. It is amazing just how much Bruce adds to this show. In some instances, Jerry totally steps back and just lets Bruce rip on the leads all over the place. But that second set is pretty monumental as noted by others; I was particularly taken aback by the Corinna > Matilda sequence following the aforementioned Scarlet > Fire. Excellent Bruce embedded throughout and then inspiration carries into the start of drums with even more Brucey wailing away with Billy and Mickey for a bit.

It's shows like this that surprise without intention and consistently keep me turning over new stones in search of such gems.

Happy Holidays to All!

Sixtus

Thanks dude...although looking at the link, it appears this one is from March 19th 1995 in Philly, not the Bruce show. Nonetheless, a rarity is always appreciated!

FURTHERMORE, it also appears I was actually at this Philly Show; it's the same one when they busted out Unbroken Chain, and the place erupted. Scored tix in the lot from my housemate who at the time had some excellent green to trade and his efforts did not disappoint.

This seems like a silly complaint in light of world events right now.

Still haven’t received my copy of Dave’s Picks 36 more than 2 months after it was supposed to ship. I changed my address in mixed October with Customer Service for which they acknowledged the address change but not only have I not received it to my new address but it didn’t arrive at the old address. I live in Hawaii on Oahu so not a far distance away from my old house who my friend owns. Customer Service finally answered my inquiry in early December and said a “replacement copy” was shipped. Now my emails are being completely ignored since late December. You’d think after faithfully ordering Dave’s Picks Subscriptions for 9 years running there’d be some kind of response. I hope everyone else got there copy and are enjoying it. I’m not really sure what to do at this point. Demand a refund? If anyone has experienced this let me know what I can do. Cheers and Happy New Year!
