18,000 happy Dead Heads could not be wrong. Deer Creek, my how you deliver.

We're closing the books on DAVE'S PICKS 2021 with not one but two - nearly - complete shows from Noblesville, IN 7/18/90 & 7/19/90. Yes, we've packed it all on four CDs, save for that second night encore which we promise you'll get to hear in the very near future. Sometimes there really is just too much good stuff.

For now, we'll invite you to cozy up with two exceptional back-to-back shows, shows with precision and clarity, shows with more than a lion's share of exploratory jams, and most importantly, shows that were simply a damn good time for all. Highlights from night one include the bookends of a spectacular "Help>Slip!>Franklin's" and an epically intricate "Morning Dew" followed by a classic cover of "The Weight." Night two, is the sleeper hit, with flawless playing from start to finish, the set list inviting you to find new favorites in top-notch renditions of "Foolish Heart" or "Victim Or The Crime," and if that's not one of the finest versions of "Desolation Row" Bobby ever did do! We would be remiss if we didn't mention that these shows were among Brent's last and they are some of his finest of the era at that.

Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOL. 40: DEER CREEK MUSIC CENTER, NOBLESVILLE, IN 7/18 & 19/90 was recorded by Dan Healy and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

Gots dat peaceful easy feeling.

As was often the case with the second night, the sound is more dialed in outta the gate.
Though it does build nicely throughout to where later on you had to think/remember the lineage.
In other words, I thought these sounded good all things considered.

And speaking of hot outta the gate, Phil starts out a tad loud but quickly dials it in during a decent JACK STRAW opener. TLEO continues the refined easy feeling with some sweet harmonies.
It’s like the boys knew they’d cleaned up and did the working man’s thing at the stadium shows and now they could chill in the backyard. Same with DESOLATION, a nice, well played version, though I wouldn’t say Goat.
I dug the first vocal hallucination on the Phantom of the Opera line, but the second one may have been unnecessary?
PICASSO MOON moving along nicely then, whoa? Whhaaaa happen? Lol.
Tight ALTHEA/PL to bring it home, we’ll played but perhaps not quite the fire of the previous nights set closers?
First set overall perhaps more consistently well played with less time needed to dial things in, but after first run through I think my gut goes slightly with the first night? But that could change going forward?

Now I keep mentioning relaxed, mellow, laid back etc I mean these as good descriptors, not negatives, it’s how I felt at the June Cali shows. A band relaxed and confident and enjoying the situation. They may not always have the roller coaster energy, but good in a different way.
VICTIM starts kinda the same, more relaxed and not as violent or dissonant, which to me is what makes the song. I know many do not like this song, but it’s one of my favorite Bob songs lol. They do wrap it up nicely though and I can only imagine what it really sounded like live! It’s a shame JG jumps ship so quick as I could of seen them weirding that one out a little longer. Phil seemed to be digging it!
But JG is raring to get to FOOLISH HEART and he does a fine job with it. But next perhaps the crown jewel of the show, CHINA DOLL. A sweet, nice combo with UJB, but unfortunately no groovy space jam into Drumz.
But that’s awright as the D/S is quite nice, until that nasty MIDI signal distortion. Much of which is Bob as evident by when it’s just he and JG out there. I Turned down again until it passed, Into a status quo WATCHTOWER, and then another top highlight for me, the sweet BLACK PETE everything JEP by now!
Only wish sometimes he didn’t Segway quite so abruptly with some of these, to instead linger on those sweet transitional moments! But on to a status quo NFA to end another fine, we’ll played show! I’d say another 3.8 outta 5 Red Sweethearts. Emotionally I may have identified to the first night a smidge, but I’m kinda tired today so who knows, next time could be different!
I guess the clincher is that luckily they gave us BOTH shows so we don’t have to think too much about all that lol.
Thanks for giving us both and for two great shows from a so far lightly scratched tour!
Look forward to more plays of both of these.

This is a great one!

Happy Sunday Heads!

I'm really enjoying Dave's 40 so far. Listened to the whole thing once. I've always enjoyed 1990 Dead and these shows are new to me. I have to agree with Dave, the second night is the one for me. Band sounds really in sync with one another and the show is full of energy and a lot of little musical moments. Enjoyed the first show also. I anticipate listening to these a good bit in the coming months. Foolish heart is a highlight for me. I've always enjoyed that song. One of those later era tunes that could have been jammed out more. Epic China Doll here also.

Count me among those who like Drums/Space. Especially the later years. I remember being particularly blown away by drums/space when I saw the band in the 90s and playing a cassette of infrared roses as background for some good smoke sessions. Seems like most of Infrared Roses was from 1989-91, maybe even mostly 1990?? Great versions on these shows. I like the audience recording in this also. I could feel some summertime outdoor vibes as I was listening to these.

Thanks Doc for the 71 anniversaries. I've never heard the Harding shows or the Cleveland show from Fall 71. Seems like I need to give those a listen.

So much good music. Play it loud if you can

My first show was 4/6/89.
I walked into that stadium with Pink Floyd as my favorite band, and walked out of that stadium with Grateful Dead as my favorite band.

Yes, I am also a Drums/Space fan.

A few days ago someone asked why D/S wasn’t cut to make room for the Useless Blues encore.
The answer?
Because Drums/Space is better.

Most jokes state a bitter truth…..

50 years ago today…..

November 7, 1971
Harding Theater, San Francisco, California

Set 1: Truckin'-Brown-Eyed Women-Beat It On Down The Line-Hideaway-Sugaree-Jack Straw-Tennessee Jed-Cumberland Blues-El Paso-Big Railroad Blues-Comes A Time-Mexicali Blues-One More Saturday Night

Set 2: Ramble On Rose-Me And Bobby McGee-Loser-Sugar Magnolia-Dark Star>drums>The Other One>Me And My Uncle>The Other One>Deal-Brokedown Palace-Playing In The Band-Casey Jones-Not Fade Away>Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad>Not Fade Away

Encores: Johnny B. Goode-Uncle John's Band

Deadicated to bolo24, because I will not follow where the path may lead, but I will go where there is no path, and I will leave a trail……

Great and classic show and a long-time personal favorite. It has pretty much everything you could ask of the Dead in this era. Rockers, Cowboy songs, hot jams, the unusual coupling of Dark Star and The Other One, an unbelievably smoking NFA transition jam (maybe the best ever?), plus even the often-expected equipment difficulties, AND jokes from the audience! The circulating broadcast copies are excellent quality and highly recommended. The band sounds loose, and the crowd sounds juiced. OK yes there’s no Pigpen, but still highly highly recommended, a classic of the first rank!!

Rock on!!

Overall a fine show.
HELP starts out perhaps a tad tentative? Perhaps pre-occupied with sound etc.
Sound is pretty good for opener, perhaps the bass and/or bass drum is a bit tubby?
SLIP transition is not flawless, but it is the openers, and if I was seeing this live, I’m sure I’d had no complaints.
So far I’m actually liking the crowd mix. Adds more realism for my taste, not so unnaturally dry.
Like the guy yelling lol.
MINGLEWOOD Kick still a bit tubby. Strait forward well played but not powerful.
Bobs vocals sound good, JG’s still work in progress, like in PEGGY O, he sounds good performance wise, but sound wise a bit dry and too out front? He does awright with just one little miscue.
Maybe their a bit tired near the end of the tour? It’s almost like they have a cool west coast laid back vibe going?
Perhaps it’s just the slow first set build up!
EASY saw 3, first one in 79, then 3/22/90 & 6/8/90, with this one being last of the 9 returns, and last one ever.
Not a perfect version, but nice, and nice to hear him go with some positive energy that sometimes lacked in latter days. After all these years, still mind blowing that he’d be gone so soon after!
MASTERPIECE this is a nice, smooth version, and Bobs vocals already seem really dialed in, while JG’s aren’t quite there yet. Another relaxed but well played song. Everything: Music/Sound keeps progressing subtly with each song.
BEW JG muffs the first line, but moves on nicely and by now Healy has him dialed in also, with the overall vocal blend sounding nice!
CASSIDY/DEAL as was often the case, by the time the set hit these 2 to close things out, the band and sound would be finally building up nicely to the big crescendo. JG careful, concise, not manic or forced.
Overall a pleasant, well played set if perhaps lacking a little in fire?
THE SECOND SET analytics slipped away on me as things were sounding mighty fine. Kinda status quo for the times with the slow build up of the first set and coming out in the second all guns blazing and the sound pretty damn good all things considered. Cruising nicely at a super clean 90 to 95 dB peaks, sounding great!
I’ll leave the hyperbole to others, especially in regard to the China/Rider. Great energy. The set progresses nicely, with the drums/space causing me to giggle! I like the the psychedelic vocal effects on Bob during TOO, and though I can understand how some folks don’t like it, I didn’t think it was too overdone, though I have heard it done so. I’ll just say on to a great finish and leave it at that.
The sound eventually was so good I’d forgot it’s lineage. Like if I just listened, I didn’t consider the source, versus if I thought about the source, then I noticed it a little, if that makes sense?
Best of the tour? Don’t know the tour well enough to say, definitely a consideration? Best of the year, I respectfully disagree.
I’m sure after stadiums it was way cool to be at these. Really look forward to tomorrow!
Overall, not flawless, but pretty damn solid! 3.8 outta 5 Red Sweethearts

EDIT: oh, one thing to note, the nasty distortion in space. Guessing it’s MIDI related. Seems more the recording than CD production. It didn’t last too long but if your blasting this at loud volume you may want to spare your tweeters and turn it down until it passes.

Ah Stoltzie

4/24/72 RTR - the release that turned me into a casual Dead listener. Sugar Magnolia came on in the smoky basement of a home poker game shortly after it came out. I looked at the guy whose house we were at and said in a British accent "what's this mate?" And the rest was history. Still think it's the best version, but you know, you never forget your first Sugar Magnolia.

I'm with you on the 8/1/73, 6/10/73, and 11/19/72. I would add Chicago 7/25/74 to that list. Really want that last '74 Dark Star with the early Slipknot! after it.

Would still very much like the Boston Tea Party shows from the end of 1969 into New Year's. It's unreal how long a Dave's Pick 1969 drought it's been. Back to back Bonus Disc releases with 6 & 10, and then crickets for 8 years.

A few thoughts

7 25 74 yes KF agreed

Glad to have 2 23 74 coming our way

69 shows YES weeee neeeed moooore, Dave

Yesterday of all days

I drive home from Oregon in glorious GD goodness

Pick up son and his GF from airport on the way

Get to my house

Stove/oven and an electrical outlet not functioning

WTF

For those with short memories

Trump was the one throwing millions at the drug companies in the2020with the instructions to get a vaccine now! What were the Dems doing? Saying it will never work, it will take 5 years blah blah. Harris claimed she would mess it up. Wtf he wasn’t developing it By the way I’m not anything close to a Trump supporter, as a matter of fact I resigned from the Republican Party in June 16 of 2016 when they nominated him. How many here left the Dems when they nominated a self entitled criminal in ‘16 or a clearly deficient old man in 2020. No just interested in historical accuracy

Best to all

Hi all, I just wanted to wish all you grate people on this forum the best of christmases, restful holidays, and a wonderful, safe and healthy new year!

I've said this before, but it bears repeating: I really enjoy the conversations here, I learn a lot about other music to check out, and I feel like this is a place where there is interesting, informed conversation about the best band in the world, and my favorite band. Thanks, all!

Snafu got into the brown acid

FDT

Meanwhile...

The gorillas at the zoo are cool

Canned heat

Try 1971 'whiskey and wimmen' with john lee hooker on harp and vocals. Happy holidays guys.

Alan Wilson…

On harp. JLH didn’t play harp and you can hear him in amazement as to how the Blind Owl can keep up

Snafu

I meant harmonica.

Christmas is the day that holds all time together.........

Yo! Rockers!!!!

Christmas is the spirit of giving without a thought of getting. So if anybody out there needs some 1971 Christmas joy in their stocking, you know where to find me! The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value........

Christmas to a child is the first terrible proof that to travel hopefully is better than to arrive.........

Happy and safe holidays to all, and rock on!!

Doc
Christmas is a season for kindling the fire for hospitality in the hall, the genial flame of charity in the heart......

Hooker 'N' Heat

That's an amazing album. Not very seasonal - but that version of "Burning Hell" is corrosive. John Lee talks about Pigpen inbetween songs, too-dissing his cooking. I presume that's the same Pigpen.

its Christmas

and I'm sure no one here wants to hear the ravings of a trumpian, so let's all be thankful that the orange loser is not in power anymore and be done with it.
The best xmas present ever, trump in jail.

Daverock

You are correct, sir. Canned/Hooker combination is sweet as honey. Hooker adds that voice that you can't find anymore. Legendary. It is going to be a long, long road to 74' winterland, and Baltimore. If you signed up for the early pigeon subscription, it is even that much better.

Dick's Picks Vinyl Question

Ok, everyone gave me enough amazon gift cards I was able to buy a copy of DP36 in vinyl. (missed it by this much when it came out!!) Just for argument sake it was 350 (new/unopened)

My question is how many of the dicks have been put out in vinyl? I have 8, 26, 19 and now 36. Am I missing any?

Hope everyone had a super Christmas and Santa left you everything you ever wanted!

Dennis: Dick's Picks Vinyl Question

I believe DP 1 though 5 have been reissued on vinyl.

Dicks Picks on vinyl

Dennis - I think 24 came out too-3/23/74. I am not 100% sure - I didn't get it. There was one from 1974 that I dithered about...and while I was trying to make my mind up, it disappeared off Amazon. Whichever 1974 show it was - the last time I saw it was on Discogs...for hundreds of pounds

Two cool shows ten years apart.

12/26/69 and 12/26/79

12-26-70...we were

At the El Monte Legion Stadium (of Frank Zappa fame) for the start of a three day run...one of those night's had an "Easy Wind" that was so good and powerful I thought the back wall of the arena was going to blow out...

12-26-79 DP 5

With the "Uncle John's" 2nd set sandwich is another fine listen for today...

El Monte December 1970

Now therez a box opportunity

Real Gone Dicks

DiP 19 recently came out on on vinyl Real Gone, and I grabbed me one. I think I kind of panicked.

Last year Real Gone put DiP 36, which is one of my 3-4 most favorite of the whole series, but money was tight, and I hesitated and it sold out and then I regretted it. So when they announced they were doing 19 I ordered it immediately, even though to me it's only a very good and maybe not great show. But I'm still glad to have it. Not sure how many others they've done on vinyl but they've done quite a number DiPs and Road Trips on seedy. It's worth it to subscribe to their email newsletter if you're looking for that stuff.

Just btw, I received a vinyl copy of the Goat Head Soup reissue for Xmas, and I'm enjoying it more than expected. I really only wanted it to get the 'Brussels Affair' live set, which is some of very best live Stones on record IMO, but the studio album is better than I remember. Lots of songs I'd forgotten all about (Winter, Silver Train, Hide Your Love) are actually really good. Also never noticed what a major contributor Bill Wyman was on that record: very melodic, tasty bass lines throughout. I'll say it again: to me, the Stones haven't sounded like the Stones since he retired. And of course the Brussel stuff is amazing.

Speaking of Real Gone Dicks: One thing thing that I'm pretty sure was just exactly as bad as I remember is 2020. I refuse to rise to the bait and try to list all the ways that **** failed to address the public health crisis that was killing thousands of Americans per day for months at a time. (Who has the time?) I'll just say this: if you're going say in the middle of a crisis "I take no responsibility," then you don't get to come back later and say "I want to take credit."

Giving 9 8 73 another try

No complaints

But

"Official release" worthy? Dick was keen on 9 8 73?

Ooooodd

Luckily we got the St. Louis box

12/26,27,28/70 Legion Stadium

Nappy, cool show, I've never heard these before. P.F., yeah these would make a great box set.

Crow

Thanks for finding the words. In it for a penny, in it for a pound.

Goats Head Soup

Check the liner notes on Goats Head. There ain't a Stones album from the Bill
Wyman era where he contributes less. Keith & Mick Taylor played bass on many
of the tracks. Apparently Wyman either wasn't invited those particular days or was
out sailing on his yacht ... An underrated effort by the Rolling Stones - last good
lp from the MIck Taylor era. Brussels is the live gold standard for the that line-up!

It’s Christmas

Not interested in the raving of haters on either side Trump or Biden/ Clinton

well said Crow

I love how you x'ed out its name lol.

Anniversary shows 12/27/79, 80, 81, 82,83

Big fun at the Oakland Auditorium and the S.F. Civic.

The Stones vs Mighty Baby

It;s a great album, Goats Head Soup - maybe not as funky as Exile, but the actual songs may be better in some respects. And The Brussels Affair is my favourite live album of theirs.

It's a pity Stones box sets always cost so much ( Black Sabbath's are even worse) When you compare the cost of a Stones box to the cost of, say, the 6 cd Mighty Baby retrospective, the latter works out about three times cheaper. And if you were to ask me which I played the most, the answer would be....The Mighty Baby.

Great Dead shows at Oakland December 1979. 12/26 and 12/28 are anyway. The 26th features maybe my favourite jam of theirs with Brent at the wheel.

The Stones Vs Mighty Baby

No contest. In my house Mighty Baby wins hands down. That's like Max Bygraves Vs Tom Jones.

Every so often...

I listen to So Many Roads release from...a while ago

I really like it

I would love another one like it

There must be a bunch of great music in shows that can't be released as full shows for whatever reasons

I'd buy it

Got a joke for ya

I AM AT AN AIRPORT!

Punch line....

So. Many. People.

Sooooo many.....people

And

OUR FLIGHT GOT CANCELLED.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Punch an airline in the nose today, kids!

Anniversary show 12/28/79

42 years ago today , I was at the Oakland Auditorium for a killer show with the good ole Grateful Dead, what a blast!

Major jeally btk

I have good memories of that show on cassette.

Been a Long Time

Listened to 12/29/77 DP 10 all the way through for the first time in ages . That is some quality Wolf era '77. Terrapin Station really rocks on this one.

The Brussels Affair is great. Ladies and Gentlemen...The Rolling Stones is also an outstanding must have from the Exile Tour the previous year (best of 4 shows) released as a movie. There are a few different songs and a few better performances (check out Happy, Tumbling Dice, Bitch, Love in Vain, Sweet Virginia, and Dead Flowers on L&G). The Blu-ray sounds much better than the CD because it 's in 5.1 Surround Sound. I think Keith's vocals are bit better on L&G as well. The Brussels Affair on the other hand has a Midnight Rambler and Can't Always What You Want that may be the live GOATs; then there's Dancin' with Mr. D and Heartbreaker live, which I find more raw and exciting than the studio versions. I'm going back to back on these now....

Re: Major Jello

Agree.. what a run. I have fond memories of this show on CD.

Jug of Love

I went back to that Mighty Baby box set, and it really is superb. I can't think of any other British band that could jam as freely as this, without reverting to blues rock. If, having already got the signature albums, you passed this by, Simon, I highly recommend it. Great to hear so much of that Glastonbury set from 1971 that was featured on one side of that album all those years ago. Its not Daves Pick standard sound wise, but its infintley better than that side on the Glastonbury L.P.
I never saw them live - but I did see guitarist Martin Stone during his brief time with the Pink Fairies. It was 1976. I was 19. I don't remember a darned thing about it.

Dead of the day -3/17/68 from 30 Trips. Grrreat. Lovelight, when it still sounded fresh, kicks things off in fine style. I've only played the first two songs, so the best is yet to come.

Anniversary show 12/28/83 S.F. Civic

38 years ago today, I was at the S.F Civic for a knockout show with the Dead. I put this show on my top 10 list of Grateful Dead shows I've attended. December, what a great month for Grateful Dead shows, I think they could put out a box set of December Grateful Dead year end shows : 12/68, 12/69,12/70, 12/71, 12/72, 12/77, and on and on.

McDonald and Giles

sun bells rain down...

Looks like one of Peter Sinfield's pearls of wisdom - though I'm not sure he was on board that early on.
I do like the lyrics of some of the psych/prog rock bands from the late 60's early 70's. I was listening to the Tyrannosaurus Rex album "Prophets Seers and Sages The Angels of the Ages" yesterday - a sample of the words?-
"A cobra seer with the puntured ear
Slaughtered a Malayan Sun bear
Night stood erect with bronzen haunches
Zapped the seer gave the bear back to us."

Genius. They don't write 'em like that anymore.

Dave the Rock and lyrics

Reminded me a little the The Bewlay Brothers by Bowie.

Now there be some great lyrics they don't write anymore! :-)

Dennis - Bewley Brothers

That's a truly great song - one of Bowie's best. Both that, and the album that preceded it, "Man Who Sold The World" are full of strange and wonderful songs. I do like records that somehow manage to be both profound and absurd at the same time.

Phish had to cancel their NYE shows at MSG due to covid....

....but, lo and behold, they are going to play a 3 set show on NYE without an audience on their app and YouTube channel. Starts at 5:30 pm EST sharp.
Did I mention its free??
Pardon my French, but that's pretty fucking cool of the band. They remind me a lot of the Grateful Dead in that they just want to play. And appreciate their phans which is payed forward.
Oh, and it might snow in Vegas tomorrow lol.
