    8 years in and the Grateful Dead are a little bit of everything to everyone. They are putting up textures and tones of rock, of jazz, of country, with set-morphing vibes and long stretches of improvisations that are completely keyed into the sum of their parts. Keith Godchaux is here with his cascading notes. Donna Jean too. Both finding their footing and keeping things steady in the wake of Pigpen's unfillable gap. The spring of 1973 feels transformative for the Dead - no more so than the May and early June shows, complementary yet remarkably different, soon-to-be cornerstones of everyone's tape collections, and now, 50 years later, set to be part of the band's official canon.
     
    HERE COMES SUNSHINE 1973 is a limited-edition, 17CD boxed set with five previously unreleased, highly sought-after Dead shows, including: Iowa State Fairgrounds, Des Moines, IA (5/13/73), Campus Stadium, UCSB, Santa Barbara, CA (5/20/73), Kezar Stadium, San Francisco, CA (5/26/73), and Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, Washington, D.C. (6/9/73) and (6/10/73).
     
    During the spring, the band road-tested most of the songs they would record that summer for WAKE OF THE FLOOD – their first studio album in three years – including early live versions of “Mississippi Half-Step Toodeloo,” “Row Jimmy,” “Stella Blue,” “Eyes Of The World,” and, the set’s namesake, “Here Comes Sunshine.” Also tucked into the collection are songs destined for the Dead’s 1974 studio album, FROM THE MARS HOTEL – “China Doll,” “Loose Lucy,” and “Wave That Flag,” a precursor to “U.S. Blues.”
     
    The new repertoire slipped neatly into the fluid setlists alongside songs honed on the 1972 European tour (“Jack Straw,” “Tennessee Jed,” “Brown-Eyed Women”), Chuck Berry perennials (“Promised Land,” “Around And Around”), classic country (“Big River,” “The Race Is On”), and incredible jam sequences: “He’s Gone”> “Truckin’”> “The Other One”> “Eyes Of The World.”

    Box arrived today.
    3 scratched discs I’ll be after replacements for but no glue residue.
    Scratches don’t show up in photos due to resolution and light probably so hopefully Rhino don’t cause aggravation if they really intend to go through thousands of photos trying to spot damage.
    I have worked how this problem was caused.Unlike every other box set I own where the discs fit in cardboard slots without covers the discs come in and out to the side rather than up and down from the top.Because of this they have correctly ascertained that they won’t be as secure so have made the slots slightly smaller.Enough to damage thousands of discs.Idiot design and asI posted at Hoffmans a clear fail in any Industrial Design 101 course.

    The shows from the box

    I'm slowly making my way through this show by show. Up to the last disc of 6/9/73 so far.

    It's hard for me to point to any one show as "the one" from the box. I think Dave L's point in the video about the smaller moments really nails it. Most of the big jams center around combinations of He's Gone, Truckin', The Other One and Eyes, with PITB being a consistent jamming vehicle falling into various set locations. The smaller moments in songs that aren't necessarily jam focused seem to have the extra oomph and to me are the real highlights.

    It'll take more time for me to digest and pick out specific moments, but imagine if you've listened through the whole set, it's all good. A nice companion to the PNW 73 (and 74) shows.

    That 6/9 Playing is industrial strength. Show is tighttighttight. The He's Gone > Trucking. Eyes > China Doll. Awesome Sugar Mag to close. Best Loose Lucy maybe ever!! Do it!!

    Every one of these shows is gold. Great playing. Favorite era. Sound quality is pretty much out of this world crystal.

    To be clear I'm an "Iowa" kid, as in 5/13 was my show in the this box and the rest just gravy ; )

    The 5/13 jam sequence is always gonna be a top shelf favorite.

    But yep - 6/9

    Oh, and 5/26 Kezar. and 5/20 Santa Barbara.

    Once again the “taper” show was overhyped.
    I’ve only listened once so far, but felt though it has several significant moments, it’s overhyped.
    Iowa has been the wildcard sleeper, though Kezar stood out too.
    But, as I say, only one time through so far…

    I'll give it another listen backwards RFK to Iowa

    Through disc 1 of the final show in the box with close headphone or hooked up to the big boy stereo. CDs and ripped.
    My first impressions are that each show gets progressively better in terms of performance. I might come up with some specific examples (Disc 2 of 6-10 PLAYING IN THE BAND) Makes sense if you think about the Dead's touring schedule at the time. I might personally go with Iowa over Santa Barbara on account of Jerry's voice, but each show definitely warrants a close headphone listen or better.

    P.S. Shout out to the well-placed HC Sunshine tease out of Truckin' on 6-9 (this may be the sleeper show for me as I hadn't ever heard this one)

    -edit- Kezar could well have been the standalone show, but 6-10 is a grate choice, nonetheless. I am looking forward to many more spins on these and I am glad the quality check went well for me despite the glue not having been quite dry

    VGuy - great HCS on 5/26/73, too. Slight skip at the beginning of this track - hopefully nothing permanent. Bob seems higher in the mix on this show than in the two earlier ones.
    Alan - good points all round. Not having a mobile phone I couldn't take photo's of a cd even if I felt inclined to.

    Bad Disc Resolution

    Update.
    Rhino have told some people it will be 8 weeks until the solution is communicated.That makes it the end of August.
    One of the senior Rhino people has been posting about this issue at Hoffmans.They are definitely aware of it and that the only satisfactory solution is replacement discs not refunds or discounts.Again it costs not much more than nothing to press CDs so if they have to do that it shouldn’t be an issue.Do not accept any solution that doesn’t involve replacement.
    One interesting thing that has come out has been discussion about issues of discs that don’t play even though they have no visible damage.This has been occurring haphazardly in Dead releases since about 2020 although never as prevalent as with this release.Rhino changed manufacturing plants in 2019 and have had zero problems with releases by other artists.The only difference they can put it down to is that Jeffrey still uses HDCD for transfer and that affects the coding although these discs aren’t HDCD.People with players where a light comes on when HDCD are still seeing that light.In some totally random unexplainable way that might be affecting playback with some discs on some players.I said might about all of this but Rhino is talking about removing HDCD from the chain in future.
    The biggest villain here is the fool that designed this totally disfunctional packaging.Hang in there everyone and don’t give up until you get your replacement discs whenever that might be.
    Finally asking for pictures is ridiculous.How does it help people who have visibly perfect discs that just won’t play?Compare with Universal that when there was slight warping on some of the discs of the 8 disc Hard Luck Stories box that only prevented ripping sent out complete replacement sets to everyone who asked for them.Having people analysing photos and then picking out particular discs to send out doesn’t seem that cost effective to me.
    Edit-Just checked and the packaging is designed by Masaki Koike who has apparently won a Grammy for this stuff.They might want to return it in shame after they have designed something that has damaged thousands of discs and no doubt will eat into Rhino’s profit margins on this release.

And it doesn’t look like $70 worth of postage IMHO. Jeez I’m becoming an old whinging pensioner.

Box looks fairly compact. Agree the postage seems high. This is going to be an awesome box. Think hard about getting caught outside looking in simply over some postage. Less than 1000 left. I'd smash the "Buy" button. Don't think you'll regret it in the long run.

I was thinking this morning, that if they want to put extraneous gifts in box sets, something useful would be appreciated. A couple of pairs of socks would come in handy.

A couple of pair of socks, ruthless!

I agree for the most part I want standardized box sizes to make storage more manageable. I also understand, though, that some of this stuff provides income for other artists. For one, I havent ordered one glass or shirt or playing cards. Looking at deadandcompany site, I think their tshirts are more my style. The last tour tie-dye has me thinking about pulling the trigger, even though my last (GD) show was 34 years ago. Have seen Bob and Ratdog and Phil and Friends shows.

Super stoked for this box set.
Recordings from 73 and 74 always used to be hit or miss with me.
Most sounded flat and the vocals were paper thin (especially the 74 WoS tapes).
But the Winterland 73 box was a revelation.
As was Dave's Picks 5.
Now quite a few 73 (and 74) shows have become some of my favorite repeat plays.
Looks like it'll be arriving close to my birthday, too.
A week off + new GD box set = bliss.

Fingers crossed for safe arrival, and no defective, damaged, or missing discs.

Based on the photo, the CD’s in cardboard sleeves suggests that the Box won’t be as tall as the May 77 or July 78 Boxes, maybe a little bigger than the wooden Warlocks 89 Box.

TheRelayer74: Hi everyone I am new to the site and I wish to buy the Here Comes Sunshine cd box set I have not set up an account yet and I am from the UK I wish to know if there are any problems shipping to the UK from the online store what service they use and what are the possible postal charges many thanks Kevin

Go to the thread on Steve Hoffman Forums about this set.You will come across a code that gives you a 25% discount and reduces international shipping charges by 75%.It was still working a few days ago.
Bear in mind you unlucky Poms get hit with outrageous customs duty charges.

Things like that are quite annoying. These things are expensive if you live in England - or anywhere else outside the U.S. come to that. Why they have to play these sort of games I'll never know. Offer a discount or don't, surely.

Having said that, I have always been impressed with customer service on here. The boxes and cds are always well packed, and while they seem to take a long time to arrive, it just seems like that because Americans get there's, and review them right away. You are then expecting yours in a day or so. And it obviously takes a bit longer to get to where I am than somewhere in California. I don't have a problem with that at all.

Occasionally a cd or L.P. is faulty - but very rarely. Only once in both instances for me. And on both occasions, I got replacement discs sent out. Again, living a long way out, it might seem to take a while before they turn up - but turn up they do.

There are hidden costs with duty, import charges etc, and these seem to vary depending on where you live in England, which is a bit odd. These box sets are appreciably more expensive than any others I buy. As are the Dave's Picks.

I've ordered this set. If you like 1973, and can afford it - way to go. As was said earlier, all box sets have shows, or parts of shows that are less than stellar. They all add to the whole, though. I'm waffling so I'll go! But that'y my experience in a nutshell.

I noticed my order says cd and vinyl shipping at same time, but web page says 7/28?!

Opinions

I upgraded to UPS Ground for $7.99.
I decided that this Box is too important to be passed off to USPS.
UPS has to recalculate the delivery date, so I don’t know yet when that will be. But it better be before the day that was estimated for USPS delivery.

Ordered the first day and my confirmation says release date 6-30-23.
Store page lists release date as 7-28-23. Which is it I wonder?
Guess I'll find out eventually. Good to see the box is shipping on time for once.

The June release date is for cd. July is for vinyl. This has become a common practice lately.

....is worth two in the hand.
Re; The Sound?
Same as it always was. Pristine. Although, there are a couple tracks so far that have that reverberation/echoey/tinny thing that I've heard on other '73 releases at the start of early set songs. I wonder 🤔 what that is?
(I'm through Iowa and Santa Barbara so far.)

The box isn't even officially released until Friday . . . same day as the newest GarciaLive!

There's some newly-remastered Dixie Chicken and Sailin' Shoes CDs this month, each one complete with outtakes and live material. Those (like this box of Sunshine) are also through Rhino, who really take care of us folks who love old and/or obscure rock-n-roll.

I always can be wrong, but, my calendar say 7/31 on Jerry stuff.?!..

The Little Feat stuff,,,, out takes are always a crap shoot, interesting one was a demo of Easy to Slip for, get this, The Doobie Brothers! Two remastered originals,,,, I can't hear a difference from memory of albums,,, they sound good. I wanted for the two live shows,,, be warned they're short shows.

Anybody have thoughts about the stones re-re-releasing 40 licks,,,, 4 lp set, price ok,,,,, thinks it's worth having?

I did order from Real Gone Records Rupert Holmes porno sound tracks! Hoping to be one of the first 200 so I get a signed copy!

..... If You Like Pina Coladas and listening to porn,,,, then you must be blind?

I'm looking forward to the new box set of the first few albums by the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band - due out tomorrow. Legendary L.A psych band from the 60's.

I'm also wavering about the Jimi Hendrix At Winterland October 1968 box, which came out over 10 years ago. Prior to it's release, I got a grey area box called "3 Nights at Winterland", on Reclamation Records, which, unlike the official box, features all 6 shows. I have always assumed the Experience Hendrix official box has better sound - and now it's getting harder to find I am thinking perhaps I should snap up a copy before it disappears altogether.
Maybe I should just be satisfied with what I've got - apart from three songs, the one I've got sounds like an official release.
