    One more Saturday night at Winterland! Yes, we're back to home base for DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 42, the complete show from Winterland, San Francisco, 2/23/74. The one that featured the earliest amalgamation of what would soon become the Wall of Sound, the one that is so "loud, clear, and defined," it's been ripe for release for quite some time and we're glad it's finally getting its due.

    First set or second, there are no wrong answers here. From the unique show opener of Chuck Berry's "Around And Around" and an incredible "Here Comes Sunshine" that would then disappear for 18 years, to a medley of WAKE OF THE FLOOD tracks - "Row Jimmy," "Weather Report Suite," and "Stella Blue" - cementing their status in the canon and an unstoppable hour through the classic 1973-1974 Dead that is “He’s Gone”>“Truckin’”>“Drums”>“The Other One”>“Eyes Of The World,” it's all exceptionally hot.

    Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 42: WINTERLAND, SAN FRANCISCO, 2/23/74 was recorded by Kidd Candelario and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Grab a copy while you can.

    (Whistling what appears to be “Ripple” while chiselling Colorado Av names on Cup):
    M-A-C-K-I-N-N-O-N (tap tap tap) M-A-K-A-R (continues whistling)….

    Oro - Tampa is an excellent team, and if they ripped the lighting bolts off the jerseys, sewed on Maple Leafs, and called Toronto home I’d be over the moon, but this AVs team has got the winner’s swagger. They are just built to win this thing. I know some terrible things happened in Buffalo sports (damn you, Brett Hull!), but this ain’t your Dad’s Buffalo Sabres (or Bills). These guys are the real deal, and I’d stock up on “party favours” if I were you, because the whole state is going to go wild!!! The last winner we had here was the Craptors a few years ago, and those celebrations are incredible (see Golden State recently).

    Back to work! (Resumes whistling “Ripple”) K-A-D-R-I (tap tap tap)…

    Whatever

    I just spent an hour watching Cup Check with Steve (from last night) and reading the comments.
    If that’s an actual too many men penalty then half the goals in the NHL are bad goals!
    Mac was no where near the play, and none of it affected the game, period!
    The only reason the game wasn’t already over was the refs non calls against Tampa, luck and Vasilevskiy!
    But if that’s not enough, the Bolts had 7 men on the ice, and Kadri was still able to burn 2 defenders and Vasy!
    And if folks really want to get real, the refs stopped calling A LOT and more so as the game progressed.
    If people are going to nit pick then go back and look at X number of actual penalties in OT and the 3rd with some involving hits that could of led to potential injuries. If the refs would of called even a few of those Tampa infractions, the game never would have gone to OT as the AVs PP would of scored for sure. The Bolts were gassed and on life support playing 5 Defensemen ffs!
    I know, a lot of coulda, woulda, shoulda, but come on, anyone who actually KNOWS hockey they NEVER call Too many men in such situations AND, understands that in the playoffs, especially close final games etc, the refs generally let them get it on unless it’s just blatant and/or the refs need to calm down the aggression a little to keep things from getting outta hand. Ya know, tamp down the violence for national tv etc. lol.
    So it was appropriate to not call a penalty on such BS. It was consistent with how they were (and often do) call these games.
    And Cooper, who I think is an awesome coach: he’s just trying to change the focus and perhaps motivate his team. It’s truly bizarre how he, Kadri, and one of the linesmen were all involved in an even worse call that did affect the outcome of an AHL series.
    Bottom line, it wasn’t a penalty and didn’t affect the play in progress. Certainly not the way that BS off sides during the Blues series in 2019? I think it was.
    It sucks that things happen in big games like this, but unfortunately they do. Sure it would be great if it was all squeaky clean, but life ain’t like that. So it sucks that the Bolts are in the unenviable position there, but one could argue if they hadn’t have cheated the cap they wouldn’t have made this far anyway, and in the long run, the AVs probably would win anyways due to youth, healthiness if players, and talent, it just sucks that now there’ll always be that dark cloud.
    But hey, you’ll get over it just like Sabres fans have had to get over NO GOAL! It sucks but Ce la vie!

    And MIKE: to quote the Wolf from Pulp Fiction “let’s not go %#erking each other off just yet”
    If the Bolts can get enough healthy players, I don’t think thier gonna go quietly into that good night!
    Or maybe being a long time Buffalo Losers fan (you pick the sport) I’m so paranoid and psychologically stressed out that I won’t be able to relax and believe it until I see em with the cup in the victory parade! ; )

    Sorry folks, the madness will be over soon, one way or another (see how I snuck some Dead in there ; )
    Now back to yer Take A Step Back dance!

    Yea. The Avs had too many men on the ice. But you know what, it did not impact the play, so I am O.K. with it. It's not like a few years ago when the refs were overturning critical plays for irrelevant infractions. Or when Marchand jumps off the ice with ten seconds left in the period, leaving his team shorthanded and allowing the Blues to score the Cup winning goal. Not a penalty, but you screwed your team.

    Oro - congratulations. The Avs are not going to lose three straight. I hope they win it for you tomorrow night. Always nice to hoist the Cup on your home ice.

    DaveRock - How loud was it?

    I was at one of the Ally Pally shows in September 1974. The hall was reasonably large and the full-blown Wall of Sound was used. The sound was really clear and the volume was "ideal". It certainly wasn't excessively loud - talking to your mates was possible without having to shout. Like home stereo systems, the better the quality of the system, the harder it is to judge exactly how loud it is. With the Wall of Sound definitely the emphasis was on clarity and quality rather than volume for the sake of it.

    Is incredible too. Maybe a bit light on long jams - the one coming out of Truckin' may be the centre piece, but every song is played really well, and Jerry's guitar sounds superb.

    It's probably been mentioned before, but I wonder how loud these 1974 shows were if you were actually there. They sound very quite, listening at home. Almost delicate. Especially compared to live shows I saw at that time-Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, etc who were so loud you couldn't hear for a week. I have just played the live 1973 show from Sabbath's Volume 4 super deluxe bollocks - a show I attended, as it goes - and even playing the cd quietly, you can sense how loud it was in the hall. The Dead sound almost acoustic by comparison.

Hung over, barely conscious, slumped in the lazy boy, bit of drool on the chin? Watching highlights.
Get a grip man, it’s only game one so far!!
When the going gets weird…
It was a tale of two cities: the AVs came down on the Preds like their namesake on a small Swiss village, but ESPN had to ruin it, at least for moi. Because of the never ending Rangers/Pens game (Boo!) they sent the AVs game to another channel. Well if your recording the game like I’m guessing a significant population ahem, you probably were unaware of this situation until it was too late, Dooaahh!
So only caught part of the first and the third periods. Hopefully the AVs are THAT good, and this wasn’t a fluke?
Tonight we’re turning Canadian again (actually I’m part Canadian already) and heading back to the TO where hopefully the Leafs will show us there for real this year and not the Leaves again!
GO LEAFS!!

I know it is one game, but I told you the Avs were good. And still the team to beat.

Look at it this way, at least you recoded the rangers/pens game and not a Hallmark movie. What a game. The rangers looked like they were going to blow them out after period 1. Chalk it up to inexperience.

Good luck to the Leafs tonight. I was very surprised by how flat Tampa was in game 1. Expecting a much better effort tonight.

Edmonton - WTF? Way to give away game 1.

Hockey:

It's hard to watch with the constant camera motion. I get motion sickness.

Also, never been a big hockey fan.

I have made my "I leave sports alone to avoid disappointment" comments previously, too.

And, don't you have to pay to watch the playoffs on the telly?

I do enjoy watching y'alls comments on the playoffs.

last 5
Boris - Feedbacker
13th Floor Elevators - Live (amazing cover art, horrific production...studio tracks with canned audience applause and cheers and stuff)
Gov't Mule - Dub Side of the Mule (didn't make it to the end)
Nashville Pussy - High as Hell
Tangerine Dream - Rubycon

True to form, my DaP is likely sitting in some Customs house, where it will remain for days waiting for clearance. It’s amazing how I can order CDs from Germany, Switzerland, and the UK, and it is generally ten calendar days door to door, but DaP will be minimum 14, 15+ days.

As for the playoffs, I have great faith that Colorado is going to be in the final. They are a team built for the body burn that is the playoffs; they crushed a decent Nashville team last night like they were a college practice squad. Tonight, let thy might Leafs take another step up the rung with another win. Everyone says Tampa played so poorly. Hey. props to them as a good team, but maybe, just maybe, the Leafs are that good.

Oro - Before taking out citizenship here, let me tell you we have a useless waste of space for a “leader”. And don’t get me going on the taxes to pay for this moron’s brainstorms…

Excellent choice of shows. Great Here Comes Sunshine and one of the best locomotive Big Rivers and effervescent Eyes Of The World that exist. Sound is wonderful. Having said all that, how about printing all enclosed reading material (speaking of Wasserman's column specifically) large enough to read. Please. Even with readers I had to get a magnifying glass and I can't be the only one. Thank you.

YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE!!!!!

I WAS GOING TO SCAN IT IN JUST SO I COULD BLOW UP ENOUGH!!!

The other thing is when text color and background color and font all clash into something you can't read.

Yellow letters on a black background, may sound good, but damn that can be a hard one!

I've never heard the first set but the second set is superb. IMHO, the best Comes A Time ever. I've skipped back and played it 4 or 5x in a row. I wish this was in the May 77 box instead of 5-5.

As already pointed out, the sound on this one is top shelf. Oro that was for you compliments of RJ.

As also mentioned, the boys had difficulty with the vocals for the first few songs. Suboptimal, yes, but it doesn’t really take away from the rest of the music. HCS is unbelievable. The vocals on that song are large the irrelevant anyway. To me that has always been unbelievably jammed out first set song. Love hearing it during this era.

I can’t read the liner notes either. However, a non-music highlight for me is the quote from the chick from Hayward on the inside cover.

When I was growing up we lived near a concrete spillway. On it was spray painted Uriah Heep. Next to it scrawled in smaller letters was the saying “ The Grateful Dead is for your head.” I never understood what it meant growing up. Now I do.

Go Leafs.

You're absolutely correct it's that Playin>Comes A Time>Playin sequence that makes it. And I agree this show more than ever beckons a full Norman. As far as the first set IMO the L.L. Rain is the BEST ever played and the set closing Dancin is BETTER than the gem played 05/08. It's also one the best SB's I ever heard. Yeah MAY the 4th BE WITH YOU!!!!

Greetings All.

A question for your collective, valued knowledge and recollection. Does anyone know or recall if "Dave" had produced a video to announce the release of the Europe '72 Box set back in, was it 2011? Or was the official release only posted on Dead.net in a written announcement? I have tried various searches, but I cannot seem to locate any information on a video announcement for the release.

Any help with this question would be appreciated.

Hope everyone has a nice day.

....that song holds a special place in my ❤️. It was the first GD song I listened to after Jerry passed. Had a tape in my truck stereo.
Got off work and headed to my friend's house. We just listened to the Dead all night and barely said a word. Smoked a lot. Nothing had to be said.
Still miss you big guy.
"And it's strange how no one comes around anymore".
We had just mail ordered for MSG. Would have been our first east coast shows. Money orders were returned.
Some heads actually got physical tix back. I'm actually grateful we didn't. Is that weird?
Edit. Slipknot! tease in the Playin' y'all!! I wonder if that was random and Jerry wrote down that riff for future use or if they were already working on it.
Interesting.
Double edit for spoilers. Apologies. But it's cool AF. Gonna rewind. I'll be right back.

There were no video announcements of Dead products back then. I DO recall getting updates as to how many discs it would take to finish the set. Either they were still getting tapes, or they hadn't quite worked out how to best present these complete shows on discs.
I cannot recall exactly when the video announcements came, though I am confidant that one of our brother "Heads" will come up with the answer to this riddle.
I'm still waiting for my Dave's 42, but still listening to other great stuff:

Phish-8/11/21 Hershey Park
Elton John-Capt. Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy
Al DiMeola-Casino
Paul Bley-Fragments
Bruce Springsteen-Letter To You

I appreciate your time in replying to my post. I have found videos announcements going back to Dave's Picks #1. I do remember the 'unboxing' of Spring 90 video, but nothing before that.

Those videos have been made available for some time now, on the GD videos channel on Youtube.

Thank you again for your time.

Hope you have a nice day and your DaP 42 arrives today.

After learning that my order was “returned to sender” due to a “bad address,” I reached out to Rhino. A person named Dr. Rhino immediately responded and offered to send a replacement. 48 hours later, the USPS recognized their mistake and delivered the package. I wrote Dr. Rhino and told him to cancel the replacement. I share this post to say that Rhino didn’t mess up, but they were willing to fix the problem. I know that saying positive things about Rhino isn’t popular, but here we are.

Looking very much forward to it.

One word of advice. if Nappy comes alone, you should be fine, however.. if he comes with his cat it's a set up and all bets are off. Were pretty sure that cat is responsible for some shady and unexplained occurances.

For Jerry's 31st birthday on 08/01/73 at Roosevelt Stadium - Jersey City, NJ. I clearly recall a woman sitting on a man's shoulders at the lip of the stage handing a bday cake to a roadie while the band was on stage. I could see Jer smiling from 100 feet away. And that's pretty much my ONLY memory of that two-nighter with The Band, as it occurred mere days after the two-dayer at Watkins Glen. I was all of 15, but getting wiser by the day. Man, were we crisp.

Back to JimInMD on the upcoming box, with a nod to Vguy and Nappy gettin' crazy with Los Lobos. Wish I was there.

Missed it by this much. Once it got rolling, 42 looked like it might get here ahead of schedule, then it sat for four days in GJ, was “supposed” to be here yesterday, PO has it now, so went, but hasn’t processed it. Anticipation, it’s making me wait!

FOURWINDS: nice to see you, fun box idea, I’ll bite:
VINCE: 73 or 91 whoops, sorry Vince!
PHIL: 73
TOM: 73, whooops, missed the 73 first time
BILLY: 89, or 78
KEITH: 89
JERRY: 73! Dark Star!
DONNA: 72
PIG: 91 Good Show
MICKEY: 73 Dark Star!
BOBBY: 74 or 81
BRENT: 73
BRUCE: 73

NAPPPY and VGUY: I smell trouble! Yes, I’m jealous!

JOSHOGORMAN: great news! Doc to the rescue again!

Glad most are enjoying the new tunes!

just sayin

and thank you, Mr Ones

this is a place for my psyche to express itself and to hear from other crazies

y'all be cool

I like the way you think.. except some of these shows either were not recorded or the tapes do not exist (thinking 9/8/67, etc.). Don't give Rhino any ideas suggesting we might pay for a rare yet empty box set, they might go for it.

Proudfoot.. oh crap, I forgot Vince. So sorry, adding it now.

Mr. Ones, thank you, and right back at you.

PT Barnum, could it have been Valium instead? I recall reading a show where someone was giving them out backstage and Jerry jumped at the opportunity, downed a few and as it turns out he might have been allergic to Valium. 2/7/79??
