    Individually Numbered, Limited Edition of 13,000

    Steamboats and BBQ, ice cream cones and Mardi Gras - are you ready to laissez les bons temps rouler with the "gateway" to the Grateful Dead? Meet us, won't you, in St. Louis for seven complete and previously unreleased Dead concerts that capture the heart of the band's affinity for the River City.
     
    LISTEN TO THE RIVER: ST. LOUIS ’71 ’72 ’73 is a 20CD set featuring five shows from the Fox Theatre - December 9 and 10, 1971; October 17-19, 1972; and two from the Kiel Auditorium - October 29 and 30, 1973. 
     
    The seven shows in the collection span slightly less than two years, but they represent some of the best shows the Grateful Dead played during some of its peak tours. The music tells the story of a band evolving, changing from one sound to another seamlessly, precipitated – in large part – by significant personnel changes in the Dead’s lineup.
     
    The two 1971 shows feature the original Grateful Dead lineup plus newcomer Keith Godchaux on piano. This version of the band would hold together for the next six months as the Dead embarked upon its Europe ’72 tour. By the time the Dead returned to the Fox Theatre less than a year later, they were without Pigpen, who’d played his final show with the Dead at the Hollywood Bowl on June 17, 1972. A year after the exceptional Fox 1972 shows, the Dead came back to St. Louis, but played the much larger Kiel Auditorium, touring behind the release of WAKE OF THE FLOOD, which came out just two weeks before.
     
    All told, the band played 60 different songs during these shows highlighted by blazing romps through “Beat It On Down The Line” and “One More Saturday Night” and wistful takes on “Row Jimmy” and “Brokedown Palace” (whose lyrics give the collection its name). Meanwhile, the copious jamming ebbed and flowed like the mighty Mississippi River on multiple voyages through “The Other One” and “Dark Star.” Naturally, the band paid tribute to one of its favorite rock and rollers and one of St. Louis’ biggest stars by playing Chuck Berry songs at every show in the collection, including Pigpen galloping through “Run Rudolph Run.”  
     
    Each show has been restored and speed corrected using Plangent Processes with mastering by Jeffrey Norman. The collection comes in a slipcase with artwork by Liane Plant and features an 84-page hardbound book as well as other Dead surprises. To set the stage for the music, the liner notes provide several essays about the shows, including one by Sam Cutler, the band’s tour manager during that era, and another by Grateful Dead scholar Nicholas G. Meriwether, among others. 
     
    Due October 1st, LISTEN TO THE RIVER: ST. LOUIS ’71 ’72 ’73, is limited to 13,000 individually numbered copies and available exclusively from Dead.net.

    If I recall correctly, the comparison was 12/5 vs 12/10. I know, just a small detail, but still.................it's probably because you listen to too many Dark Stars...................

    To me, 12/9 has always been an anomaly. For years it's been postulated that there was a missing reel. My guess is they were running late. I know, shocking for a professional band....................

    Bad - no. Bumpy - yes

    It isnt all plain sailing for me between 1969 and 1972. Not by any means. How could it be-given the nature og what they did? For me, the first half of 1969 is stellar - a real peak in terms of material and performance. But things ran less smoothly from about June onwards when the "Working Mans" and country songs started getting introduced. To me, these early versions sound a bit awkward, and the energy of the first half of the year gets dissipated a bit. Plus, the "Lovelight's " get tediously extended. Typically, these are the only shows from 1969 represented in Dave's Picks.

    In 1970, its more of the same-interstellar jams, awkward short songs and interminable "Lovelight's". I should say though that I do like the acoustic sets from this period.

    1971 seems to be a complete reverse - they are now spot on with the country style-but what's happened to the jams? Look no further of course - in October, with Keith onboard they return, and the Dead became lords of all they survey. Every type of song they play they take ownership of. And the "Lovelight's" get shorter.

    That's a ridiculosly truncated summary of course-just a general impression I have this morning in repsonse to Keithfans post. I wouldn't descibe The Dead as rock n' roll, either. They sometimes played it , but only in the context of a greater whole.

    Yes I'm onboard with Vguy: Doc's reviews are great reading, especially if I catch them in the morning with that cup if French Roast. And it's not just the show reviews - you also get some pearls of wisdom to stimulate thy waking brain. Heh. I said "thy". Been reading a lot of Tolkien lately.

    Sure get stoned at night Big Boss Man. Just tuning into 12/9 the past couple of days after reading about the predicament Doc found himself in, with the 12/9 vs 12/10 comparison request (kk

    I hope it wasn't me). Comparing Dead shows on back-to-back nights is especially difficult. Assuming the audio quality is the same, it's almost down to the set list.....almost. I don't think I've heard a "bad" show from '67 to '77. The factors that influence my replay likelihood are:

    Recording Quality - this affects me more than I like to admit, and sometimes my tolerance grows over time. As a headphone listener, an undercurrent of buzzing, drones, excessive tape hiss, or other anomalies will definitely impact the frequency that I play a show.

    Mix - If I can't hear Jerry, I'm not going to be happy, whatever else is going on. Sometimes it happens - not much you can do except move the balance a little bit to the left. The opposite is true for me too. If Jerry is high in the mix I'm going to listen a lot more (examples of hHigh Jerry: DP 23 from '72, DaP from Nassau 9/7/73, Road Trips '74, DaP from the Orpheum '76, DaP from Swing Aud 2/26/77, and pretty much most multi-track releases, to name a few).

    Performance / Energy - did they play well?/ I think pretty much every night before 1978 was at least an A- on the grading scale right? But most nights I think they had some extra rocket sauce and played extremely well - an A night. And then there were some nights where they had "the stuff". You know "the stuff". FW 2/2/69, 5/2/70, 4/29/71, 5/3/72, 11/11/73, 2/24/74, eckcetra, eckcetra). Sometimes there's this vibe that even the tapes catch. 12/10/71 feels like lightning in a bottle to me.

    Setlist - it somehow factors in sometimes, I suppose. If the tape quality and performance are top notch though, the setlist almost doesn't matter. What's that? Yes you in the back. What if it's Dark Star night? Well perhaps, yes, that can be special - but a Dark Star does not an A+ concert make.

    Thanks for all of the great insight Doc. It's only rock 'n roll but I like it.

    Set 1: Bertha-Playing In The Band-Mr. Charlie-Sugaree-Beat It On Down The Line-Black Peter-Next Time You See Me-Jack Straw-Tennessee Jed-Mexicali Blues-Smokestack Lightning-Big Railroad Blues-Casey Jones-One More Saturday Night

    Set 2: Sugar Magnolia-Deal-El Paso-Brokedown Palace-Uncle John's Band-Not Fade Away>Turn On Your Love Light>Goin’ Down The Road Feeling Bad>Not Fade Away-Johnny B. Goode

    Deadicated to Ken Kirk and Joe Lydon, for all the shows we shared together……

    Maybe not a top-tier classic, but it has its own quirky gooey goodness. One of only two 1971 shows with both Black Peter and Brokedown Palace, and the only 1971 show with both Smokestack Lightning and Turn On Your Lovelight.

    Back in the very early years of my crazy tape trading daze this was one of the first “local Dead show recordings” I had, so it has a special place in my Grateful Dead heart of hearts. It never seemed like the greatest Dead show ever, yet I still treasured it then---AND now.

    Definitely worth a listen…………

    Rock on!!

    Deadicated to Albert, where ever he may be. Don’t go all existential on me…..

    There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered. After an absence of eighteen shows, Pigpen returns, albeit in a slightly subdued mode. But it’s good to have some grease back………..

    This was the first show with both Pigpen and Keith Godchaux. It includes the final performance of The Rub, which is actually a pretty decent, hard rocking version. The Other One reprise has some nice, energetic “interior jamming” before they return to the Other One theme and the second verse, after which they fairly abruptly stop. This is followed by extended tuning prior to the start of Not Fade Away.

    Hard to assess the first set due to “suboptimal sound quality” of the first set audience recording, but it seems well played and well received. The second set is very fine, highly recommended!

    Rock on!!

In the meantime, I think I'll pick up the 2 Download Series I'm missing.

Heard an NPR story that this will be a global problem because a lot of ships with shipping containers are being held up. Prices are also expected to skyrocket for the holidays.

I don't think a global trade war was such a great idea. Add a global pandemic to the mix and it's a perfect storm disaster.

Crazy because of the time lapse from the last box from '76 that was released just as the pandemic hit came out earlier in the year than they usually do.

I suspect Dave's Picks 40 will also be delayed. Hopefully the quality of the product doesn't suffer from rearranging logistics for future releases and the production of them.

Shipping is a generic term rather than specific to ships. Even though I live across the pond, I am not expecting my order to be sent by ship, indeed I don't think it will see the inside of a shipping container either. I am hoping it will be sent using one of those new-fangled flying machines. Even so, using such modern methods, recent orders from the US and Canada have taken between two and seven weeks to get to me. I hope I receive this highly anticipated box before Christmas.

You could be forgiven for thinking they still use real ships given the time it takes !

Bit of a shock for me this week with the latest order from Bear Family in Germany - the duty has gone through the roof. They wouldnt deliver unless I paid up -first time this has happened. This, combined with the postage, adds up t what I paid for the box nearly - and that wasn't cheap.

What with Covid and Brexit, the simple act of rocking has become strewn with obstacles.

My Neil Young @ Carnegie Hall which I ordered this week, will not arrive until 10/13 - 10/21 range. Granted I ordered it this week when WharfratWhitey mentioned it.

BOBLOPES - My Live at Carnegie Hall cd arrived this evening. Not played it yet, hopefully tomorrow.

Edit: I’ve now heard the album. I was, slightly, concerned before listening because ‘Mojo’ magazine had given it 4 stars because of the out of time clapping from the audience!
In reality, that only happened on ‘Sugar Mountain’ . For what is described as on official bootleg the recording is great and it’s a fantastic concert of solo acoustic Neil Young. The same magazine gave a 4 star rating to the soon to come 20cd box set as well so they must have had a copy of the digital files.

Possibly a production delay, such as defective CD’s that they decided should get fixed before releasing the Box and then having to send out replacements.
If it’s a shipping issue then the pallets of Box Sets probably haven’t made it to the Gnarlywood warehouse.

We pay for shipping with Box Sets so they previously haven’t come through Mail Innovations like DaP’s do.
So, hopefully once the Boxes do ship they come either UPS or FedEx.

Yeah for me the box sets always come through UPS, the Dave’s Picks through USPS. This is the most anticipated for a box release I’ve been since the Get Shown the Light., been really digging these ‘71 shows they are giving us. The extra wait is excruciating, but at least 12/10/71 is available for streaming, and it’s a monster.

USPS just announced they are suspending ALL mail deliveries to New Zealand, Australia, Samoa, and 18 other countries citing "lack of available transportation" and insinuating that it is Covid-19 related. I suspect the infamous Mr. Dejoy may be playing part of his self enriching scheme here. At least "suspending" sounds like it could come back at some point. Or not! Like the sorting machines? Guess I'll be sending my sister a paperless X-mas card this year.

So weird. Usually we would see the unboxing and contents of the box. Wonder what happened????

I got around to listening to the new officially released Fox Theatre, St Louis, MO 12/10/71 I bought thru Amazon.
I already had an unofficial version which I used to enjoy until today, from the "Grateful Dead '71 Dead" big yellow box of 21 discs sourced from FM radio broadcasts.

There is no comparison!
The new official release blows the unofficial recording out of the water! Simple as that.
However, I do like that extra track between Good Lovin' & Brokedown Palace, "Talking / Tuning" Haha!

A grateful thanks to all at Rhino who made it happen!

When I went in to the record store on High Street in Oxford OH, during October of 1973 to buy the new album, Wake of the Flood, little did I know that Row Jimmy, MS Half-Step, Stella Blue and Eyes of the World would become favorite songs of mine. Sure rekindles memories of seeing the band perform on 10/27/73 in Indy.

It's still good value, though, that yellow box. The three stand out shows- for me - are 10/19/71, 11/7/71 and 12/5/71. 11/7 being one of the best of any year. It would be great if that one got an official release on cd, vinyl and t shirt.

I've heard of Stormy Monday, Ruby Tuesday, Hump Day, Thirsty Thursday, Thank God It's Friday, this weekend, next weekend, this coming Monday, all the days and the days between. I've heard of "top of the morning." But the "top of next week"? Never hear that 'un. And I'm pretty durned Americun if I do sez so myself.

Not to be, as Hamlet said, negative, but "heading your way at the top of next week" has a hint of "the check is in mail" (speaking of Americanisms). It sounds like what it probably means is 'hopefully pretty soon but don't count on it."

Which is fine, really. I was glad to at least get some acknowledgment that they know there are thousands of us out there who have been checking our email every few hours hoping for a shipping notice, and at least they're aware that we're all wondering why nothing seems to be happening. A little more specific would've been cool, but they probably still don't know exactly when the sets will ship and they didn't want to leave us hanging, but didn't want to promise something they couldn't deliver, either.

So, whatever, now we have time to ponder the mysteries of Time. Tick tock.

I wasn't aware of that, so thanks for bringing it up. I agree 100%-his records sound as fresh and life affirming now as they did the day they were cut. I might dust off that dvd of his performance at the Town Hall Party later on.

Nice pick of the tele as your avatar, incidentally. A couple of weeks ago I had the capacitors changed on my Japanese pink paisley tele. It's gone from sounding like a tinny and harsh copy to being a full bodied rocker - more like the 60's model it is based on. I couldn't believe how much the sound has improved - like a new instrument. So, a highly recommended upgrade if you have any Japanese fenders in your house.

Streamed it on Apple Music and gotta say it's exceptional! I had it previously on the Euro FM box and another SBD copy and those never really stood out to me. But this official release has amazing sound and the show just rocks and flows perfectly. My fave '71 shows generally occur late in the year after Keith arrived (Albuquerque, Ann Arbor, Felt Forum, Boston, Austin, etc.) Maybe I was just in the proper mood or so badly wanting to dip into the new box, but it really hit the spot.

That Tele's a partscaster, very light body and great(All Parts) neck. However, I'm having same issue you had, the pickups are extremely harsh, especially the bridge pu which is barely usable. I should replace the caps like you did. In the meantime I'm switching to my H530 Heritage, 2 P90s...warm and crisp.
Btw, I don't recall ever seeing pictures of Jerry with a Tele; or a Jazzmaster.

Cousins - I seem to remember Jerry playing a telecaster in the Festival Express film of the 1970 train ride . He is playing it while guesting with another band - I forget who now-not one of the famous ones, and not one that is listed on the back of the dvd box I have here. He doesnt really stretch out on it, as I recall. I don't remember ever seeing him with photographed with a jazzmaster, though.

It's a pity he didn't play a tele The Dead occasionally, especially during the early 70s. Bob seems to have played one on rare occassions - I think he is photographed with one at the Melkweg show in 1981.

I'm not familiar with the Heritage guitar you mention- but ones with P90 pickups always attract me. There's an Epiphone copy of a Les Paul Junior widely available at the moment that is supposed to be as good, if not better, than the Gibson one. But at a fraction of the price. The one in TV yellow with 2 pickups looks to be the one !

I couldn't resist. I purchased and just wrapped it up and shipped it.. I am gifting it to you, DaveRock as I am sure you will use it for good instead of evil.

-edit- Based on the estimated weight of the package, it was only supposed to be the shirt anyway for now. I'm assuming I'll get separate tracking info. once the box ships out. So, I'm not fretting (yet).
