"When it came to 1973 Dead, I was always drawn to the big second-set jams, 'Dark Star' or 'The Other One,' and all of the places those songs could go that year. One week during my initial stint with the Dead, Dick was spending a lot of time listening to 9/8/73, and he could not stop raving about it. He was very intent on pointing out that despite the absence of the 'Big Two' from 1973, every song, every solo, every moment was out-of-this-world excellent. He played me the first set, giving a play-by-play of each song and what made it special. In those listening sessions, Dick taught me a lot about how to listen critically and objectively. Of course, the subjective self always creeps in, those moments when you whoop and holler at how good a performance is, but that objective listening is critical. After many days of listening, Dick moved to other eras, as was his wont, since he carried the responsibility of selecting the best Dead shows from all eras to represent the Dead’s recorded legacy. But he made it clear and inarguable that he felt 9/8/73 was one of the best-played shows from one of the Dead’s best years." - David Lemieux

Despite the gloriously blustering artwork above, the forecast for DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 38: NASSAU VETERANS MEMORIAL COLISEUM, UNIONDALE, NY, 9/8/73 is blazing hot! With a double endorsement from archivists Dick Latvala and David Lemieux, you know it's a MUST HAVE. This one's got inspired playing from start to finish, with soon-to-be-minted Wake Of The Flood classics, a first-ever "Weather Report Suite," Keith polishing his chops on "Let Me Sing Your Blues Away," Jerry tapping into era-defining sound with his Wolf guitar, and we'd be remiss if we didn't mention Bob's exquisite playing too.

Among our 2021 Dave's Picks subscribers? The subscribers-only bonus disc featuring nearly an hour and a half from 9/7/73 is coming your way too. (P.S. there's 35 minutes of 9/7/73 on Dave's Picks Vol. 38, to boot)

Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 38: NASSAU VETERANS MEMORIAL COLISEUM, UNIONDALE, NY, 9/8/73 was recorded by Kidd Candelaro and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

S&R * Closing Fillmore * 12/10/71 * 12/14/71

I don't like overdubs and have therefore never gotten into Skull & Roses or the original Europe '72. E72 is easy enough because there is a replacement version available of every song.. Are there any Skull & Roses tracks with no overdubs?
The Other One?

IMHO Pigpen's' Hammond chops were just fine in '71. I don't believe he took the the year off in 1969 while TC was in the band; I think he continued to polish his organ and play / compose music despite not playing it onstage. His improvement is obvious right at the outset of Truckin'. Check him out on 30 Trips, 3/18/71, Ladies & Gentlemen, etc. By Europe '72 he was all over the place, playing sparsely, densely, or not at all, depending on what the music called for. I think some of the best Dead stuff out there is that brief 1-2 punch of Pigpen's Hammond and Keith's piano.

So....not an overdub fan; but honestly it's the vocals that sound most out of place to me. E72 Sugar Magnolia and I Know You Rider....Snoopy "bleah!" But I'm going to give the new Skull & Roses it's due. My last word on the overdubs - I understand their necessity in those days, and most bands were doing it to an extent. I also understand how you guys who were around when these records first came out would be enamored with it regardless of overdubs (and that's great); it just sounds alien to me because I listened to thousands of hours of non-overdubbed Dead before ever encountering these old LPS.

Something went sideways on my order of the Extended S&R. I thought I bought a copy for both Uncle Gary and me when the pre-sale started but I don't see a confirmation email. But I do have a transaction on my credit card from around that time and I can't think of what else it would be. Anyway, I open the customer support ticket last night and then I went out to Barnes & Noble and bought the Extended S&R, because I can't wait any longer for the 7/2 bonus tracks. Just finished it and am left longing for the whole show. Grrrrrr. Will have to go with the bootleg version for the rest. And what an odd selection to choose. I guess they were trying to eliminate as many duplicates as they could. Thank you for making drums a separate track on Fillmore West. It sounds really good overall. Doc, good call on The Other One. I just turned it back on for a second listen.

Also Doc, I blasted 12/14/71 through the headphones, since you picked that show out of a crowd of released material from Nov / Dec '71. I had not listened to that one since around the time it came out, and we basically received four new shows from that period in a year's time with DaP 22 & 26. My first impressions on the relisten: audio solid, performance tight. Truckin' was peaking that Fall, and of course we had that 1-2 punch with Pigpen and Keith, so yeeaah. The whole show is truly awesome as you indicated. I'm a big fan of the one drummer performances of Me and My Uncle. This version shot the top of my favorites list, due largely in part to the melody Jerry is picking away at for the first 30 seconds. He's usually doing something similar, but this time he repeats it over and over in a mesmerizing fashion. Now I need to listen to 12/6 and 12/7 and see how things compare. So much homework....

Cousins, I checked out the 12/10/71 set list you recommended. The first thing that came to mind was that they played all of those songs on the Europe '72 Tour. I suppose that's the case for all of those Autumn '71 shows. It just struck me this time that they had been "rehearsing" for E72 quite some time before they made the trip.

Kriyas-excellent show-I played that one yesterday, coincidentally. I tend to overlook those download shows, and summer 1972 seems a bit between twixt and twain-but that ones a good 'un.

Curiously, on my recording there is a complete drop out of sound for about 5 minutes, during the end of He's Gone. Just total silence, before it kicks in again with Truckin'. I have never been sure if the original recording was like that-or whether it was a fault with my downloading. My original download has long gone - luckily preserved on cds!

You can't base your life on other people's expectations…..

50 years ago today…………

July 2, 1971
Fillmore West, San Francisco, California

Set 1: Bertha-Me And Bobby McGee-Next Time You See Me-China Cat Sunflower>I Know You Rider-Playing In The Band-Loser-The Rub-Me And My Uncle-Big Railroad Blues-Hard To Handle-Deal-Promised Land-Good Lovin'

Set 2: Sugar Magnolia-Sing Me Back Home-Mama Tried-Cryptical Envelopment>drums>The Other One-Big Boss Man-Casey Jones-Not Fade Away>Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad>Not Fade Away

Encore: Johnny B. Goode

Deadicated to Phil Carson, because gooey greasy goodness……….

In life, one must sometimes temper one’s expectations with reality. And the reality is, the Dead didn’t always “play up” to big expectations. This may be a good example of that phenomenon….

They didn’t blow the roof off, but they didn’t bury it either……………..

It has been reported that the Dead themselves were not happy with their performance on this night. Perhaps because they had to constantly retune? However, it’s NOT a bad show, in fact many parts are very good, including the Pigpen material (especially Good Lovin’ to close the first set, a position I like a lot), the China/Rider, and the really fine Other One. Truth be told, I actually am very fond of it, because it is rough, hard edged, and rocking. Bare bones, hard rocking, definitely recommended.

A single disc of this material was released in June. It didn’t include the thumping, greasy Hard To Handle or the short sharp shots of greasy rave-up The Rub and Next Time You See Me, but sometimes we just hafta take what is given……

Rock on!!!!

Doc
I am not in this world to live up to other people's expectations, nor do I feel that the world must live up to mine

Just listened ....

To Skull & Roses again, the new one (nice clarity) -- I know, wrong thread, story of my life -- and I say this: on Wharf Rat, I hear piano (uncredited) and I hear Jerry's vocals coming from the studio, in addition to Merle's sweet organ playing...

I say Jer's vocals were re-recorded, and he's playing piano. I know, shocking! Pretty dang nice effect, but no way he sounds that good warbling live.

Anyone?

And a fine holiday it's going to be

Less work (like that ever stopped us...). Nice comradery here lately.. agree, good to see you back gfar.. Oroborous appears caught up on his community service to stop in and stir up the pot.. HendrixFreak has mildly suggested a Fall '72 Box Set and given a polite, Canadian nudge that the box had better be fall '72, or else..

All seems ok with the world. Listened to 7/1/78 this afternoon and got a repeat of the 'first set' songs during Today in GD History on SiriusXM at 7. The planets seem aligned for some good ole Holiday spirit, even if it's not a holiday where you are.

Enjoy all..
There was a polite shout-out for 6/30/85 on the pick of the day thread. Nice, hot mid 80's show..

Hope all is well your way. Things here are good. I am trying to do a better job of staying engaged instead of dropping in to read posts (i.e. a lurker biserker - as in Clerks). I think last count was 3 youngins, any more yet?

Anthem of the Giants

Kind of surprised to see all the hockey talk around here, when the REAL sports story right now is the amazing SF GIANTS, who despite being projected for yet another losing season, have the best record in the National League! Woohoo!

In the Bay Area, love for the Giants AND the Dead can be almost hereditary, and the Giants are well aware of the cross over. They have been hosting a Grateful Dead Night for decades, and also a Jerry Garcia tribute night, with appearances by band members, special seating sections, various swag. (I’ve got a cool t-shirt with an orange and black SYF on it.) Band members often sing the national anthem for those games.

If anybody ever did a ranking of various Star Spangled Banners by the Dead, like some people have done with Dark Stars and whatnot, I think this version would rank pretty high. Listen to the crowd response at the end!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e67T_kjc64A

Go Giants!!!

Mike

I can't blame him. Being a Leafs fan is like enduring a Russian winter. He's bereft of hope.

Crow - playoffs always trump regular season. You should know that.

Sorry Mike...

I’m speechless!
My mantra now on that side is ANY ONE BUT BOSTON!
Hopefully someone from Canadaland...

As far as AVs, only five down so far, long way to go, so don’t jinx us ; )

Crow Told Me SSB

Yes, this is one of best versions I haver ever seen, but we are a little biased. I remember showing this to my wife a couple of years ago and she was impressed.

Thanks for posting the link. I miss those days.

GD National Anthem

Thanks Crow for reminding me of that absolutely patriotic moment! First heard it on the David Gans GD hour very near the date of its performance which was the Dead's first. In an attached interview on the GD Hour when asked why it took them so long to be asked to do it Bobby smarts off saying, " Because they knew it would take us a long time to learn it". Jerry takes the more thoughtful approach saying, "We are like bad architecture and old whores. After you've been around long enough you get some respect". Priceless! Vince really nails it and his harmonies get the applause especially on the high note. In another part of the interview Jerry is asked if he is a big Giants fan and again Bob jumps in with the dig, "Well he's not the smallest Giants fan." And again Jerry gives the more thoughtful reply, "Yeah, thanks (asshole). I guess we are like everybody; when they're doing well we start watching them. But I'm a San Francisco fan and they are our team."
How many National Anthems have they done?
P.S. It was not only the Dead's first time but it was opening day and the first female ballpark announcer in the history of baseball was also on her first day. Very historic indeed!

The Grateful Dead Movie

So the Grateful Dead Movie premiered today on June 1,1977. Anyone around here old enough to remember seeing it that summer. I went from Baltimore to DC to see it as the DC theater had an enhanced sound system especially for the movie. The opening animation was spectacular for its time (I actually still think it holds up quite well). The movie is a great tribute to the band and the audience (us deadheads). Captures the Dead concert experience quite well. If I didn't have every scene and line practically memorized I'd watch it again tonight in honor of the premiere. Oh, heck, why not one more time.

Oro

Thanks man. Just typical of this team. Like Jerry said about the Dead when it came to playing the “big” shows like Woodstock, they didn’t bring their A game. Must be the drinking water from Lake Ontario, has the same effect on the Buffalo Sabres, not to mention the “clutch kids”, the Bills.

I’m with you - anyone but Boston. Not to jinx, but the AVs are a pretty dynamic team, all down the lineup, so unless they do a Leaf, the Cup is theirs to lose. Vegas should come back swinging after the debacle the other night. But good luck to the AVs.

Did Miller bring back ponies?

1st for those too you to remember, in the 70's Miller beer brought out a 7oz bottle of Miller called ...you guessed it ponies. If my memory isn't totally gone there were 36 in a case. The idea was they wouldn't get warm at the beach
Where am I going with this? I received the Dave's glass today ( after they told me it was canceled). It's rather small. I like it but I'd like it better if it fit the beer I make

Snafu must have gotten the better paper padding....

....for the glass than I did. Good job!
I'm not buying the other two. I don't like my Mr. Hyde when he gets roused from his sleep. Good thing I didn't have the Workingman's hatchet Sunday. Could've gotten ugly. More for everyone else! Have at em.

Dave's Picks 38 9/8 Is Great

I got my drink on and finally had a shot to listen front to back without interruption. Zowie! I have never heard Bob Weir sound this good before. The audio is ok to me. I understand some people didn't care for it but I don't hear any issues other than the piano being too low. I should say steady issues. There are some spots where the audio drops but that is normal for these old recordings is what I have found.

As good as Bob Weir sounds, Jerry Garcia is playing some excellent stuff too. He always sounded good back then but there are some shows where he plays a little more frequently in a song. Me and My Uncle for example. He plays so many notes. Or Tennessee Jed. He plays an excellent guitar solo. Big River is as good as I have ever heard it. I would take a whole box set of these!

Glass

The Dave's picks glass is great for screwdrivers.

Butch

Did you know butch de feo died a while back? I guess his appeals have run out. I'm listening to veneta pitb and cant get enough.

Guilty Pleasures

Watching the Big Lebowski drinking a white russian.

Robes are underrated....

....see the post below.

Agreed

As long as Marchand is on the team - anyone but Boston.

Oh and by the way...

Happy 80th Birthday to da man, Charlie Watts!!!

Marchand

is like a hemorrhoid on skates

Rut, roh, Canes looking ready for the slaughter...

Yeah, I’ve been thinking it’s the water for a long time lol.

Guten Morgen, liebe Totenkopfen

und so weiter

Wo denn ist der die das den dem box?

WAS IST LOS, DAVE?

Die Musik haltet nie

I bin kein Roboter, du verfluchtes Ding

Stoltzfus,

good to hear you,
du hast absolut recht, wann kommt die Dave's box 2021?
Whatever you say, ich bin auf deiner Seite.
Biergärten are open again. Had my share so far!
Best wishes to all of you.

Box Set

My German's pretty good.

I think what they are saying in the back and forth below is the box set announcement will come today at 4:00 PM EST. The 2021 box set will consist of the June 1973 RFK both the ABB and the Grateful Dead, every note and the Watkins Glen 1973, the complete recordings.

I think I will try my hand a reply.... again in German.

Dos cervezas por favor?

JIMINMD

Jim,
'73 is a good, good year.
Hope, you're right. Will wait till 10 pm our time here.
If so, cervezas are not an obstacle, not at all, tres or more would be more than angemessen.
Cheers
G.

Box set 2021

What I want, 6 random knockout shows from 1969. What I think it will be, 6 shows from 1980.

Box Set

Yeah, well I want a shrubbery! A nice one damnit!

oh yeah, Lockn 2021 cancelled :-(

Is Lockn truly cancelled?

I see online that it will be Oct. 1-3 with a Steal Your Thursday on 9/30.

Here's your shrubbery, Dennis. (I didn't know you were called Dennis...) Hmmmm....nice, green shrubbery.....

11/11/71 is getting a listen currently. Some interesting stage banter early on, but nothing yet has blown my mind.

"WWDS" = what would Doc say?

Well, Mike

Sorry to say, but I am now backing the Habs.

That hit by Scheifele was total BS. Intentional and meant to hurt Evans. It makes Marchand look respectable.

Lockn

Not sure if it was mentioned but...JRAD is now playing 6 sets over 3 nights at the Lockn Farm August 11-13. Tickets go on sale Friday and are reasonable at199$ for such high quality musicians. Frosting on the cake is 2 nights of late night led by John Medeski and Bill Martin...hell yes. Hopefully, they sneak in Wood and make it all out MMW latenight freekfest. I will be attending especially now thats its so small, this will be a special one.

And the answer is...

Dave's not here...

We live in a rainbow of chaos........

Yo rockers!!!

Atlanta. Chaos at the start. Bad vibes............

However, somebody who was there told me that once the radicals were calmed, that the music was good.......

Listening almost 50 years later, while the show has its moments, it pales in comparison to most other shows from November of 1971.

Just one man's opinion.

Hafta run to the morgue and start working..............

Rock on!

Doc
What we imagine is order is merely the prevailing form of chaos

Say It Ain’t So, Angry Jack!

That was a pretty vicious hit by Scheifele, definitely dangerous, and from the book of a Marchand or Kadri, but rooting for ….the Habs!?
Say it ain’t so, Jack!!

My money is on the AVs - these guys are like a steamroller. Pretty damn hard to stop them.

6 down...

I don’t know, the Knights did a pretty good job of slowing em down last night.
Unfortunately perhaps a few “non playoff” penalty’s in the mix, fug dat, let em play..

I don’t mind the Habs, I just like seeing other teams make it, but they sure look good right now.
Don’t think anyone saw that coming.

That hit was brutal, I still hurt!
It’s another one you have to see in real time as slo mo makes it seem worse.
Not justifying it, but if you see how fast they all were going you can maybe understand it?
I mean he was trying to stop a goal, BUT, like Enzo or somebody said, he never tried for the puck, just steamrolled the poor bastard. To me that’s the smoking gun. He wasn’t thinking about the puck.
Hope Evans is ok, cause he literally got run over!

Damn Knights....

....oh well. I'm going to the game on Sunday. They need some vguy luck.

Going to the game

SWEET! Oughta be a gas, especially if Vegas comes out flying like last night.
Bet they’ll win!
At least last night was a good game, though I felt some of the calls were lame and it might of hurt the knights accordingly...damn refs, let em play eh!

Where’s Waldo?

Dave said there were three other releases besides DaP this year...it’s June...?

Dave?

Any chance the shipping fiascos have delayed box set announcement? They might be avoiding a massive clusterfuck of shipping if they delay.

three other releases

S&R redo...coming later in the month

was the AB & 2/18/71 one of 'em?

box set...I really think they are going to wait on the new box until the holiday season. I hope I am wrong...

Lack of balance

It always seems to me to upset the balance of things a bit, announcing two Dave's Picks - and the bonus disc trick- at around the same time, in order to attract subscriptions. There then seems to be months and months with no decent announcements at all.

Box set

I think the box set will be announced next tues, wed, or thurs, from 9a.m. to 10a.m. p.s.t. No inside info, just a guess.

Oroborous

Does that include the Garden Club?

Deadvikes...lol

garden club...wow.

DV

Too funny!
Let’s hope not!

Now I’m losing my mind (what’s left of it), but I coulda swore that Dave said on one of this years videos, perhaps the last one, that there were going to be 3 more releases besides DaP.
Maybe it was for the S&R chat, so I don’t think that one counts, and no it’s not the AB bonus show, this was after all that...
I also seem to recall they used to do more releases for the holidaze, which would make sense from a marketing position. Remember a few years I had already used up my allotment with Santa, them all of a sudden these guys would drop something that I just had to have, which of course pissed Santa off cause now we’re over budget!

If I was in charge, we’d get 1 big (ger) box, 1 smaller i.e. RFK, 5 or 6 Dave’s a year, plus....?
Hell, if I were in charge I’d be spitting out as much of the vault as they can lol.

EDIT: it seems like maybe, finally, they rectified the shipping issues as I don’t recall seeing here too many problems this time, of course that’s DaP, ahem, not glassware etc...

I am really loving these…

I am really loving these Nassau shows. Wish we had all of 9.7. Greedy, I know. 73 really takes me there in general. That bouncing, joyful, tight vibe....pure beauty in my opinion. Cannot wait for Skull Fuck 50! Cheers! Peace and love, friends.

Going to spread some luck

VGuy - That’s awesome you are going to the game Sunday - you’ll see a great one. However, you mention about “ They need some vguy luck”, and then I see your current avatar….
Just saying.

Recommendation:
No - Strong Recommendation: While we await a box set announcement, for those that enjoy their jazz sans horns, the new Dave Holland “Another Land” is amazing! Great guitar by Kevin Eubanks (who used to be in one of the tv talk show house bands), and Holland is incredible, as always.

But What About

But but but what about....Gainesville???

Anyone else notice how few, if any, delivery problems were reported here for DaP’s 38?

I suspect they’ve quietly addressed the issues that were widely discussed/shared for previous releases. Yes, wishful thinking is involved here.

Gives me confidence that a box set or two could be successfully announced/delivered this year.

My guess is that Rhino has been dealing with the same supplier/distribution issues that many companies are still facing.

Gotta believe Rhino is just as anxious to increase income as any other company during these strange times.

I think we’ll be hearing from Dave soon.
