    "There’s the simple fact that the band members were old enough and experienced enough by now to be virtuosos on their instruments (what other group—rock or jazz or any other kind of music—could boast a trio of spectacularly singular talents such as Garcia, Lesh, and Weir?) but were still young enough to want to play and play and play some more, the happy, itchy inclination of youth. As a few of the shows in the Here Comes Sunshine boxed set attest, it wasn’t unusual for a 1973 concert to exceed four hours. And within the shows themselves, there are nearly nightly examples of hour-long orgies of tune-linked songcraft and juicy jamming." - Ray Robertson, HERE COMES SUNSHINE 1973 Liners
     
    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.”
     
    Due June 30th, the individually-numbered, limited-edition 17CD set features vibrant graphics and custom-designed folios by GRAMMY® Award-winning Art Director Masaki Koike, a custom-dyed Tenugui and an exclusive poster featuring an illustration by Mary Ann Mayer, and liner notes by Canadian author Ray Robertson, The Owsley Stanley Foundation, and David Lemieux. And, of course, it features newly restored and speed-corrected audio by Plangent Processes, mastered by Jeffrey Norman.

    I guess many of us are mere mortals who don't have unlimited shelf space for unusual objects which we don't really need or know what to do with. Bring back the delightful simplicity of the Winterland boxes or May 77. I still haven't decided what to do with last years In And Out "super" long box which fits nowhere. I guess I should venture under the stairs again and pack it with my E'72 suitcase, my 30 trips box, the PNW box and.. I know i am lucky but.....

    I don't think the message has quite got through that a lot of people would prefer smaller boxes with less novelties included. Still, if they gave awards out for the silliest items included in box sets, this would definitely be in with a chance.

    Maybe the postage is higher to pay for the custom-dyed Tenugui. Whatever that is. A gold statue, going off the price.

    Overseas Postage : 8Lp Vinyl vs 17 CD's

    Sorry if postage costs have been covered earlier in the exchage but..

    I had decided it was time to press buy for the 17CD's set, but then saw postage was $70, so I then looked at the 8LP box set and postage is a very reasonable, dare I say cheap, at $24.99. Is the 17CD set coming in a stupendously, odd shaped box, that is big and heavy, that helps to explain the disparity in overseas postage? Needless to say I have held off pressing buy on the 17 cd set.

    Box Set Reps

    Just an observation sparked by the recent conversations. When I looked at the set lists for this 1973 box set, I thought it was unusually repetitive for 1973, and it has me thinking the length of time between shows may have something to do with it. If you compare the RFK shows by themselves, there's a big variety. But the first 3 shows are all a week apart and seem to have the most number of repeats. In addition to playing the newer songs repeatedly, which I would expect, they don't mix it up a whole lot. Maybe these songs represent where their collectuve comfort zone was and they could play them well without a lot if rehearsal? I see a similar trend on the June 76 box set, which marked the start of playing after time off. The trend didn't last the whole year of course, but those opening shows for sure.

    Is it unusual for 73 that they they stayed away from Dark Star for 4 shows, before breaking it out on the 6/10 show? Or was it beginning to wind down by that time? They certainly didn't play it much in 74. I wonder if Dark Star was difficult to play from a rehearsal standpoint. On the one hand it is largely improv, so you can't rehearse that. On the other hand, was improv easier for them when they were playing every day? I would guess the latter. When I listen to the brilliance of those old Dark Stars, I am bewildered that they would ever retire it as they did. I was reading a post recently where it was suggested that the 74 Dark Stars were not as good as preceding years. I never had that impression. The ones I know best are all really good DaP 13, DP 7, and the Grateful Dead Movie soundtrack.

    For me, I'll take any Dead show that's mixed well and sounds great from an audio tape standpoint. For example DaP 16 and 21 from 3/28/73 and 4/2/73 have pretty much no audio issues, Cumberland Blues solo aside. If it's sounding THAT good, I'll be happy with a 75% repeat rate. On the other hand the three 1973 shows from the PNW box set are all over the place with the audio. They're a bit of a tougher listen. I am hoping these 5 new shows sound more like the two Dave's Picks I mentioned (and the two shows from Dick's Picks 28 in February 73).

    The new box can't land until I'm back from paddling 35 miles down the Little Yampa Canyon in my one-man packraft, with frosty Peroni beer and the usual produce steaming out 'o my vaporizer. (Yes, I take a USB battery to recharge the old vapo, a jar of fresh flower and a few psylo caps...) The good news is that "the trip" starts tomorrow with a five-hour drive, runs Tues-Thurs, with a two-man party on the river Wednesday night in celebration of the Summer Solstice, which pagans prefer to the much-ballyhooed religious holidaze.

    Definitely looking forward to the new box. May eat a cap and spend the day cycling, guitaring, etc., then settle in as the hallucinations die down and blast the s*** out of the first show, saving the critical 6/9 and 6/10 for last. I don't care if it takes all summer; I love stretching out my box listening and having a few cannonballs in the barrel ready to fire. Leavened by the next Jerry vault release. Add the new book on the ABB's Bros & Sisters LP and the ABB's set from RFK '73 and we've got a killer year coming. (Not to mention an excess of as-yet-unlistened to discs by Bob Wills, David Lindley, Miles, Coltrane, Sinatra, and a zillion other discs just waiting for attention.) Blessed now and forever.

    Summer's here and the time is right, for dancing in the streets!

    Late to the Cowboy Song Party

    Cowboy/Country/Bluegrass/Folk/Appalachian Murder Ballad

    All an integral part of how I view and listen to the Dead nowadays. Wasn't always so of course in some respects and for some songs. But early on - Skull and Roses w/ Mama Tried & Me and Bobby McGee were immediately brilliant, loved'em from the get go. El Paso is really pretty dressed up as country goes, but over the years, time and again, Jerry's fills and harmonies show complete care and respect for the story. Part of what informed all that for me was an early introduction, pre-dead, into Will The Circle Be Unbroken collaboration (legend) between the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and various giants of Country and Bluegrass. And even earlier to that was DXing the AM stations at night, that 1000 mile atmospheric reflection, and listening to The Opry and 50000 watts out of Dallas - did a lot of radio driving with that at times.

    Guessing Hendrix Freak referenced the EL Paso smoothly dropped in to the middle of the '73 Roosevelt Dark Star and how revelatory/crazy that was. I mean - who does that??!! There were a couple+ tapes I listened to early with that sort of madness: 1) 12/5/71 Felt Forum - DS jam > Me and My Uncle > DS jam; 2) 8/6/71 Hollywood Palladium - Trucking > Other One > Me and My Uncle > Other One; and 3) 9/28/72 Stanley Theater - He's Gone > Other One > Me and Bobby McGee > Other One.

    I revisited that 9/28/72 just now (and funny thing a heartfelt El Paso proceeds He's Gone). That He's Gone > Other One > Bobby McGee > Other One, Wharf Rat is maybe, still my favorite jam of that era. It is so good.

    Sixtus - thank you for sharing the piece about Bob and his cowboy songs. New to me.

    Good friend was at those McNichols 12/90 shows and loved em. I got tapes in my vault. Split Dark Star over 3 nights, out of space night 3, , Night 2 with an Other One > Morning Dew (which was an ideal combo for him), with Hornsby playing only Nights 1 and 2, I think.

    And how could I forget - Handsome Cabin Boy intrumental out of Space Landover 3/ 93.

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.

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.

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?

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!

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.

Thanks for the heads up Dave on the new Artex box.
I just put on my Childs Guide tee and pressed buy!

Received my notification last night. UPS Surepost! Why?
Conekid, I know you are an expert in this area, so is there anyway to change this to a straight UPS delivery and aviod the USPS part. I logged on to my UPS account but do not see an option to change it.
Appreciate any help you could provide.

DEADVIKES go into your UPS account and when you track your package ( Dead 73 box ) there will be an option to upgrade delivery change it to UPS GROUND I did and it skips the USPS transfer and I got it one day faster it will cost $6.99
