    "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.

    "I really don’t care much about hockey, but the idea that 17,000 Bruin fans are gonna go home pissed off makes me cross eyed giggly with delight! Oooh another goal, 4-0 Blues... way to defend home ice Boston..."

    Re: Three More Releases/Oroborous/Seaside Chat/Fugitive Dave

    Thanks man.. for reposting the Skull and Roses Seaside Chat and clarification on remaining releases. If I am hearing this correctly, he says besides the four Dave's Picks there are three more or at least three more.. but he doesn't feel an urgent need to discuss this, not being secretive, etc. because Rhino does such a great job announcing these releases, yada yada.

    So if there are an additional three, we have Skullfuck, the Record Store Day release and the mysterious, elusive, not discussed box set. That would make three, right? Hopefully more but I am not sure he told us much.

    Oh.. I had never seen that seaside chat before and it might be my favorite one so far. I need to watch it start to finish first.. but in this episode of Seaside Chat Fugitive.. Dave L, with his dark maroon tinted sunglasses knows his freedom is in jeopardy. He keeps looking over his shoulder, looking up, looking left, looking right.. every two and a half seconds he is looking behind him.. Is that an eagle or the cops? He remains jittery, like he knows they are closing in on him.. they know who he is, where he is, his deepest secrets.. they are tapping his phones, have frozen his assets.. the Marshalls (Mounties) are closing in and there is nothing he can do but run from justice and continue living on the lamb. It has been weeks without any real sleep and fear of being captured has taken hold of all his senses each and every second of a 24 hour day... Mr. Lemieux knows deep down inside the jig is up.

    Stay tuned for the next episode of Seaside Chat Fugitive where David L. discusses the Summer 1973 Box Set and gets a passport under his new identity from the dark web, just in the nick of time. (or is this all a setup, a ruse to draw out of hiding)? Stay tuned to find out, and be kind.. subscribe.

    Hola, good to see ya, hope your doing well!
    As Conekid said the “other one”, my bazaro Jerry alternate double, is the Sculptor with the cool older stories than thou.
    Unfortunately, we haven’t heard from my good twin in way too long! If your out there amigo, hope your doing well.
    Or SKULLTRIP? Where you boys at?

    As I think I explained, at Buckeye 88, I had just broken my ankle so was kinda over the top on “snacks” and kinda miserable. It wasn’t the best place for crutches lol. We were just to the sorta front right of the soundboard.
    That show has really grown on me over the years.

    DENNIS 😁

    WOTF Bonus; wondering if he’ll do a chop job?
    You’d think he’d go with I believe 9/15 or 9/17, since they have six songs off the yet to be released WOTF album.
    There both pretty good shows too! Personally I like the horns once in awhile as it’s yet another version of the band, but I feel like most people slag em. They would be the most appropriate, but as we’ve seen so far his/their idea of this and ours are often very different lol.

    FOLSOM 15th: had a decent tape of the second set that I loved as a kid. Haven’t heard that show in forever.

    Re: RSD GD

    Not wanting to take that chance on a Europe '72 show. Plus, the 2/28/69 vinyl is a special case, because they royally screwed that release up. It was "released" to record stores, but not shipped to them before orders were placed. It wasn't an RSD thing where product was delivered with instructions not to sell until RSD, so some stores were fulfilling months later, while others seemed to have gotten physical copies and shipped them out. I had 3 different orders for it, 2 of them canceled by the store, the last canceled by me after the 4th order came in from England. And I had placed the orders in June I believe and received in September, and the very next day dead.net put them onsale here. For more than I paid. And to make matters worse, 3/1/69 seems delayed by 2 years...

    The thing about RSD GD Vinyl

    You can sometimes obtain an unopened copy 9-15 months later for less than the original selling price.
    But not always, which is the gamble that must be assessed.

    But what really boggles the mind is that this one has yet to sell out, although it’s priced more than what I paid at a local shop when it originally came out.
    Did they print more copies than what it says on the release, or did people just not want it?

Early subscribers also get a copy of Brent’s studio album which was recorded by recording over the Fall 1980 reels.

Remember when early subscribers to the GD Movie DVD release got a piece of film from one of the film reels that went to theaters?

Early subscribers to the 2022 Brent studio outtakes Box will get a piece of the tape from the Fall 1980 reels that were forever ruined……

I don't want to miss this once in a lifetime offering.

They would be wise to follow-up with a mini holiday box of all the Little Stars ever played. The Bob Star Christmas Box with a Bob Star holiday ornament for the top of the tree. A good follow-up to the garden gnome theme. The ornament would be a high quality painted porcelain miniature replica of the 80's bobby from the short shorts up. A must have for the holidays.
