"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..

Think maybe the good ship Canada got hit by lightning and is going down.

Hey Now Sixtus

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?

Scored Billy Strings tix for Vegas Sept 4th....

Last names & Seattle

Proudfoot - I was only goofing on my last name. It’s actually only 5 letters, of Irish derivation, but amazing how often it gets misspelled or mispronounced, so I went with Dave Watson, because I knew he’d like the autograph, and it’s an easy name to spell.

Burnsy - Glad to hear you are getting pumped for the Kraken! I’m trying to get Proudfoot hooked on Kraken, too! You are very right about the Seattle Metropolitans winning the Stanley Cup, but I didn’t know about the Spanish Flu putting an end to them, that’s really interesting,. Also kind of weird how we are 100 years later, battling the Kung Flu, and here Seattle hockey rises from the ashes… (cue: music)

Mr Ones: You sold me on The Third Mind, too! I had purchased stuff from their company before - Yep Rock - so I’ll likely order from them, or Bezos if I have other stuff to get. Played them on YouTube (loved the Fred Neil tune), and you weren’t kidding - really spacey stuff, but great jams that go places, not just meander. Thanks for the recommend!

That Mike/Humble Celebs

Mike, that's actually not me on Amazon recommending The Third Mind. I got my copy from the local record emporium. And for the record, I am a Capitals fan, so I have 47 years of sucking/choking/repeated disappointments Etc.(plus one Cup!!)
I was in the music selling business for 22 years, mostly retail, but also mail order and wholesale. I got to meet dozens of musicians, most of whom were truly nice and down to earth. The absolute most humble and easiest to talk to were Steve Miller, Al Green, Alice Cooper and Peter Gabriel.
The biggest dick(and if you read his book, you'll understand) was John Fogerty. I truly love his music, but he was the whole ass.

Fogerty

Mr Ones - That’s cool you got to meet all those musicians, and even better that they were good dudes. I’m not surprised about what you say about John Fogerty - I read his book, and thought this guy has a major ego issue, then I saw him on a solo tour, and he is laying into Jerry and the Dead like they were a bunch of out of it weirdos, which I thought at the time really blew. Who gets on stage and does that!? A-hole.

As for the Caps, I went to see them the play their first season, 1975(?) when they won like 12 games or something, so bad they made the Leafs look like giants. The upside? They are way better now, and always in the mix. Just a bit of a choke come playoffs, but a hard team to take down.

A quick sour note on fogerty

At The R'nR HOF Dinner for CCR's induction, Fogerty told the Foudation he wouldn't accept the award or perform if other band members were involved, which of course included HIS OWN BROTHER!!! They had to sit like idiots in the crowd as he went and accepted and then did a medley of CCR with other musicians, Springsteen included...Screw him, Screw the Foundation for caving in...and screw Springsteen and all the othe musicians who helped this slimeball behavior...And so Stu Cook and Doug Clifford had to sit there and eat it in front of the industry...

Oops ...edit job...Stu & Doug did go onstage for the award but were not allowed onstage for the Musical performance...Tom had passed away a couple of years earlier and the Brothers were on bad terms when he passed...

I might've mentioned this before...

But this Saturday the 21st being Record Store Day I see listed Paris 5/03/72 Olympia Theatre being offered as a six LP box...

Washington Capitals....

....beat Vegas in the Stanley Cup finals in 2018. I'm not too mad, because Ovechkin deserves a cup. Just wish they didn't put Tom Wilson's name on it. Guys a POS.

And speaking of RSD 2021

The killer three LP trilogy, "Chicago: The Blues, Today!" will be released also this coming Saturday...a mid 60's release on Vanguard that was da chit for us kiddos hankering for da blues!!!

https://recordstoreday.com/SpecialRelease/13659

too bad about JF

I love CCR.

but to treat people like that...laaaame.

Chicago Blues Today/ Nappy

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=e2qgTkeNPuw. Killer l.p. Nappy, knockout version of Rocket 88 with James Cotton. I met him over in Santa Cruz one time at The Catalyst, he was super cool , reall nice guy, one of my favorite harp players.

And now for something completely different . . .

Grateful Dead chatter! (instead of hockey talk) :)

The past four months I made my first "serious" foray through the two Spring '90 boxes. I had dabbled before, but had never done the complete shows in order. I gave myself tons of time, knowing that there was no way I could do the tour on its anniversary dates. I heard some playing that really excited me, but was surprised at how much of the best material had been released before the boxes came out. March 15th and 24th were already out there, as was the Scarlet-->Fire from 3/22, as well as the most interesting songs from the 25th and 26th. And the Branford material had been available in high-quality bootleg formats forever.

What I'll likely do is make some compilations (gasp!) of the best of the rest, as I cannot imagine that I'll listen to every moment of that tour again. The first show (3/14) is a burner, and will be cranked in totality again, but I'll probably make some "shows" culled from many shows' highlights.

And I'm officially done with "Victim". I'm hitting 'Skip' on that one for the rest of my listening years . . . :-O

Dead Day RFK 6/10/73

Listening to this one today for the anniversary. Pretty good soundboard. I've never listened to the whole thing, only the Dark Star and Bird Song. I've decided I can't wait any longer for them to release this. I usually try to wait for the big shows to be officially released so that I can hear them for the first time with the "Full Norman" treatment.

I'm officially (finally) annoyed with the website. I decided what the heck, I'll submit my story of when I got on the bus for that Deadcast promotion they have going. It says you can write up to 250 words, but it stops letting you type in the box after 250 letters. The irony is that I considered submitting my story a couple of times and said nah, don't feel like it. So I finally gave it the thumbs up and typed 250 of the most interesting letters I could think of, and then kablam - no more typing allowed in the box.

Vguy good export / import joke - almost as good as the ahem...two religious leaders who get pulled over by the police.

Jimbo - you're 6'4"? That's some height I wish I had. I just figured everyone here was 5'9" like me.

Sixtus - happy birthday dude. You love June '76! Just wait until tomorrow's 6/11 show, which I assume is your favorite in the box.

gotta hear 6/10/73 again soon

this summer

if they announce it as the next Daves (hahahahahahahahaha), I will wait. Otherwise...

years ago I listened to it lysergically on a cassette walkman walking around Seattle's Green Lake.

WOWOWOWOWOWOW. That was a special time.

Keithfan/ Sixtus....

....I am also 6'4". Not always the greatest though. Was running late for work the other day and didn't pay attention to my garage door opening. Needless to say, there was some blood.
And you remember that joke? That was a long time ago. Good memory!!
Happy Birthday Sixtus! Another trip around the sun completed. Tequila shots all around!!!

RFK 6-10-73

Yep, anniversary of one of my favorite shows of all time. Had to listen again to this today and hoping someday somehow this will be released (sigh...). WE need a miracle everyday.

Alright guys and gals....

....it's almost that time. See y'all on the flipside. 🤞

.

Happy, happy, joy, joy to Sixtus, a Bday and 45 year favs anniversaries to boot!

6’4”, that’s pretty tall! I used to be 6’2” but now I’m closer to 6’....only good thing about being tall was on the floor at GA Dead shows etc!

FAMOUS FOLKS: have met several, have worked in several of their houses (never meet them only their peeps), off the top of what’s left of my head, I’d have to say Rick Danko was always a ridiculously nice guy! Had the pleasure to work with them in the mid nineties and he was always super nice and friendly!
Generally, I’ve found that celebs just like being treated like regular folk, their just people like the rest of you, of course I’m a dog, WOOF!

Go Isles! Sorry to our Mass brethren, just goofing round trying to have fun, no offense meant, though I still hate the Pats and Bs, always dug the Celts and Red Sox though... ; )

I can’t believe the AVS blew that game Tuesday. Now the Knights certainly played hard, and capitalized on opportunities, and they deserved to win, but the AVS coulda, shoulda won that game. Oh well, as Chris Bermen used to say “that’s why they play the game”...think it’s over now...don’t see the AVs going into the fortress and winning, the knights seem more juiced and the force there is just too strong! They needed to take care of business at home...at least it’s been an awesome series so far and the refs haven’t muffed it too much. Well good luck Vguy, it should be another beauty eh!

Sorry to the non-hockey folks, it’ll be over fairly soon and it’s been a tradition here for years.

1st intermission check-in....

....the fortress is loud AF.
Sorry, not sorry. As oroborous said, this hockey talk will be over in a month.
In the meantime, maybe we can recruit some new hockey fans!
And no. I'm not there. Tix get more expensive as the series go on.

2nd Intermission check-in....

....no words.

It's a final!!!....

....the Vegas Golden Knights are moving on!! So is my blood pressure!! Twas a beauty.
Time to study the Habs. BRB

Golden Knights vs Carey Price

Let’s get the battle started!

VGuy - Your guys did great - a come from behind series against a really skilled team! Impressive.

Dooaahh!

A triple deflection?....the gods have spoken!
Congrats VGUY!
Habs Knights? Could be interesting.
If the knights can sustain the energy, they’ll be tuff to beat.

Viva Lost Wages Baby!

Wait a Minute

What exactly does a triple deflection exactly mean. Do we have three more spies (web builders) then we did yesterday? Is Hockey code for deflections from Russia, through Canada to eventually write shitty code and muck up our website? (edit: Oh, not a triple defection, triple deflection.. nevermind)

Actually I saw that play. It was exactly then that I realized I am doing the wrong drugs to even watch this sport. It's better suited for younger, coke or meth addicted fans. I was watching that play, by god.. and I completely missed the goal. It was only when they slowed down the replay that I was able to see what happened. And in all honesty.. It wasn't until the third replay, played.. eeexxxtrrraaaa sslllss.lllow that I saw what actually happened. Where I come from we call that blind luck aka dumb luck. I guess that's part of the sport. But hey, I hear they plan a lot of GD during games during intermissions. That's good enough for me.

Seriously.. great game, great triple deflection. Congrats VGuy.

6/11/69. California Hall

I hope that Owsle y has a copy of this tape, because I would love to hear it, and hopefully it will be released one day. Owsley was taping all the Dead & NRPS shows at the time, so I dont see why he wouldn't have taped this show. Bears Sonic Journals say they have Dead tapes, so I would like to think that this is one of them.

Triple Scoop Sundae

I'm with you jim,,,, I could care a rat's ass about any sport, but hockey WAY to fast. I just watched that play and yeah at normal speed looked like blind luck to me. Slowmo,,,,, still blind luck :-)

FYI - I don't care if people banter about the hockey games (to a point :-) ), nothing wrong with a flowing conversation among friends about common interest. Yeah Habs???

Back to Dylan.

Sorry for the repeat

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KlSXNmHW_8

Sorry for the repeat, but I really, really love this cut. I think I have it set to start at 37 minutes. But start at about 37 minutes for a tune called Nancy Whiskey. Love the tone of this one. I have Joni doing it, meh?!?!

This is the best version I've found over night and I never heard of this song.

Sorry for the repeat.

Musings

Congrats VGuy for what sounds like an otherworldly comeback win in the series for your team. Who knew ICE in Vegas could produce ANYTHING other than liquid???

Thanks also peeps for the Nameday shoutouts and mental projections this way!

Currently spinning 6/11/76 as we all should be, today.

Be Well People!
70-Sixtus

Vguy

Well done and congratulations. Down 0-2 in games and down in the third period of game three against the mighty Avs. Very impressive.

Before the playoffs started, I pledged my allegiance to Canadaland. However, as these events have unfolded, I cannot in good conscience go against your GKs.

As promised, attached is a picture of mom with Alex Tuch. She is (or was) roughly 5'6". He's a big dude.

Sir James. Hockey is a fast sport. Very fast. And the goalies are better than you think. It's not like soccer where the goals are 50 feet wide. It's tough to get the puck past them. That's why you are taught at a very early age to deflect the puck. Your chances of scoring are much better when the shot changes direction. Even more so when it changes three times.

These guys kept me out too late last night

Totally worth it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u4dW9A29SE

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em . . .

I hope my comment about hockey talk didn't ruffle anyone's feathers; I used a smiley face after my comment to indicate the light-heartedness of my intention! :)

Since it IS playoff time, and since I DO live in The State of Hockey, I'll try . . .

Boy, that new kid for the Wild is pretty good, eh?

No feathers ruffled here....

....triple deflections are TIGHT!
Tuch is a beast!

Congrats Vguy

I don't have a horse in this race but your team seems to be bringing you much joy, congrats.

KF you are right it was Dave's Picks 7. I guess I need a title system like you. What do call the others?

Sixtus happy nameday. Thanks for the June 1976 reminder. I haven't given that one a listen since it came out.

What will be the three releases........

I wonder what the 3 releases will be that Dave talked about? Obviously, one will be the box set, if the box set is tied to MUATM, it will probably be an 89, 90, or 91 box with a dvd, or hopefully an Oct 74 box with videos. The other two released, will probably be Bears Choice 50th and Wake of the Flood 50th. I just hope they release full shows for both these releases, a full 1970 & a full 1973 show for both releases.

Three Releases

I think we have to count the 50th of Skullfuck too.. so that plus Dave's Picks and the new box... Wonder what it's going to be???

Three releases...

I agree that Skullfuck 50th is one of the three releases and the box that we all assume is coming is another of the three. I doubt that Dave's Picks counts so the third could well be a stand alone single show release. That could be 3 CDs and a DVD/BR video. Whatever, bring 'em on! Ark ark.

while we talk about tee's

I agree, most vendors have cut back on the quality of the shirt...if someone advertises their probuct as "soft" you can bet it's a paper thin product...here's a vendor I've gotten a few shirts from over the past couple of years and they are all excellent heavy duty cotton...they have a rotating weekly offer page as well as a regular stock selection...I've gotten an Atco 45 label of "Crossroads" by Cream tee, an "East West" LP cover by Butterfield tee and a couple of Zappa and Jimi tees as well...good stuff from the UK

Box

Me thinks box set announcement will come in July and ship September/October. Dave’s subscription typically goes on early bird sale in October/November. It would be impolite to announce the box at the same time.

Sheeesh, for the 15th time!

Nobody listens to me...

He specifically says besides this (S&R 50th) and outside of DaP, there will be 3 more releases

Check the video at 11:41

Hopefully the Garden stuff wasn’t one?

6/11/76

Good suggestion. Been doing highlights of the box. Presently listening to 6/11/76 Eyes Of suggestion. Audio on these shows is top notch. The 6/10 Cassidy has some kick-ass drums in there somewhere, I forget which part.

Yeah Vguy, glad to hear the Knights are progressing. It gets harder to watch the longer they're in....

Man I hope the box set is in my wheelhouse.

Oroborous has spoken

bring on the releases, Dave.

Dave?

DAVE?

wtf Dave?

Dave?

PF, LOL

Actually Dave spoke, I just listened ; )

EDIT: “Aaaa, Dave’s not here man”

Behind behind always playing ketsup

Hope all are well. Always reading in chunks and really comment much. Question: How many use talk to text versus my old as typing on an IBM Selectric?

Oroborous

hope all is well, to answer quickly from 2 months back.

Yeah at Buckeye Lake I do actually think I remember you. I only remember a few tapers in front or on side in front of board, but 2 of them being me and then another friend several feet to the left.

Question: I few years ago I posted about to the name, and the person said there are 2 Oro's. Was that true at all or just one. It would be two if, you didnt post about making a ceramic oroborous and then giving that to Jerry when you met him at a restaurant near a show somewhere?

Was that you?
A psychedelic dream?
Speaking of which I recently dreamed I was sitting around talking to Gene Simmons about health insurance. It was a blurred but fiesty debate...

A week or two back someone posted about your dog eating its tail...obviously the name. Have not gone back to see actual post today. To me, it looks like the dog from "A Dog's Purpose." Cant remember the name though.

Bulder CO 6-08-80 Anyone?

The other day I DL'ed an AUD of Folsom Field '80...nowadays I don't often grab AUD's unless it was something I was at...I wasn't at this show but what grabbed me was the 1st Set opener, an Uncle John's Band > Playin' In The Band >
Uncle John's Band sandwich that goes for 20 minutes...tasty start...And sometimes I just enjoy hearing a great AUD on my headphones, especially Ventura shows where I can hear the breeze and smell the ocean...
