Golden era Grateful Dead in the most golden city in the Golden State? Yes, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 46 features the complete unreleased show from the Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, 9/9/72. Loosen that tie, this ain't a red carpet rodeo - it's the after party that legends are made of. Consistently excellent from start to finish, this West Coast groove showcases tracks that would soon debut on EUROPE '72, solo material from both Jerry and Bob, a riveting iteration of "China>Rider," a couple of Chuck Berry doozies, a bonkers 35-plus "Other One" that hits all the psychedelic highs, and wraps up with a "Casey Jones"/"Sugar Magnolia"/"One More Saturday Night" finale that'll have you wondering why you wore a tie in the first place. Hooray for Hollywood, indeed.

Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, this release was recorded by Owsley Stanley and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Oh, and it ships next week so you'll wanna grab a copy while you can.

Thanks for all the work you do. Tracked down DreamsWeDreamed, will definitely be checking it out. Many years ago I was a member of deadvids dot com. Looked it up it is still running but has moved the site to vimeo, you can still get there by the address given. I received my copy of some lengthy book in pdf. Think I still have, cant remeber the book but was about the early lsd years, cant believe I forgot about them and the book. Fortunately, I fired up a 19 year old computer last week and it still works. Think the book is on that. Will start looking.

Weird, in the last month my town had a young couple open the first video store since blockbuster closed down. They have 4000 blu rays, dvd, and video tapes. They expect another 3000 soon. It is in an old downtown house, I am guessing the couple that started it live upstairs with the store down stairs. Plan to drop by soon. So I have a couple of things on my to do list.

#46 arrived the date of official issue, so since I live near IceCream, it makes no sense his was held up. Oh well, post office here still runs somewhat efficiently. Of course, now mostly junk mail and ads. I dont think I have any official mail come to me at the house, except like when debit and credit cards expire.

or Be Kind, Me Remind - Phish

Vguy thanks for the Phish update, will have to watch that. Still have Colorado 1988 best of tape. Havent listened to in years. You saw them at Hollywood Bowl, I think. Got lots of reading to catch up on.

Wanted to update here instead of '73 Box, my mom did pass away peacefully a few weeks back. It was truly a blessing to watch her in her peace. Dad in hospital now - but most certain he will be ok. He had hernia surgery Monday, and then Tuesday developed a hematoma.

I still have to track down 2 "Death...Mercy" from 1969 and 1970 (?) that were referenced last month, one was 4/6/69 (by Obi-Wan, I think), and the other I think was from Doc 04-26-70.

Have had one good listen to Dave's #46. Hope to get a better listen this weekend.

Hope all are well!

Hate to beat a dead fish....

....but youtoob phish the documentary. Or not. Uploaded two days ago. Focuses on '83-'87 when they were just forming gills. '88 is when they ventured from the comforts of the NE in a box truck to Colorado. By 1992 they were gaining serious traction. They put in the work.
Revisiting the 9.9.72 TOO. The 7:30 mark is where it gets fun.

My listening last night was not 100% focused because of hockey, but what I did focus on sounded incredible.

Stole Mine, Too

I have to second deadheadbrewer's comments. I finally got my copy and listened to the second set last night. That TOO is a mind blower! Awesome sound! WOW!

Stole my face!

Holy cow! THIS one goes right up the Dave's Picks charts for me! While the first set is sleepy to my ears, the second disc really got my juices flowing yesterday, and now I just finished the HUGE jam with a non-distracted, full-on-listening session. Wow. At some point during Truckin' I'm pretty sure I turned into the skeleton who is being blown back in their chair by the music blasting from the speakers. This suite of music is like the entirety of my 3500-CD classical, jazz, bluegrass, and rock collection all melted into one CD.

I'll have to save the bonus disc because I don't think I can digest music for another day after that disc 3. I love that when Keith joined the band and started holding down the basic pulse, it allowed Jerry to fly out into space, rather than trying to be the rock in the middle that the others could focus on. Thank you, Donna, for boldly introducing yourself to Jerry that fateful evening.

Thanks, Dave, thanks, Rhino, and THANK YOU, GRATEFUL DEAD!!

Be kind, rewind.

Anniversary show 5/9/87. Laguna Seca Raceway

36 years ago today I was up at Laguna Seca Raceway, for another great day with the Good ole Grateful Dead. The Dead kicked off the show with Sugar Magnolia. Bill Kreutzmann dedicated He's Gone, to the memory of Paul Butterfield. Fun show, cool venue. They filmed the Touch of Grey video that night.

Congrats on the big win. The GKs didn't even lose their stride, so to speak, by losing their goalie.

Just curious is anyone listened to D&C at Cornell last night. I caught the first few notes of Mingleweir on my drive home. Seems to me like they played a "greatest hits" show of sorts. Would be interested in any comments.

SLC....Salt Lake City....

....and they did play Dark Star there in '73. I had to double check myself to be sure I didn't dream it.
Here Comes Sunshine box in hand.
Ohhh boy.

BFD

It is a big fucking deal....

....speaking of BFD's, I just stumbled on a band called Tropical Fuck Storm.
TFS.
Australia 🇦🇺 making plays!
Last Five material.

SLC - a paradise for lizards

Vguy -You dreamed it - no '73 SLC Dark Star. And, if its the Dark Star on DiP28 you're thinking of, that is from Lincoln, NE. Like Drpryan said, the Dark Star - the full show - from 4/12/69 at the Student Union Ballroom, U of U is a real good un.

Dead performed the song Salt Lake City once, 2/21/95. Strider was there. Show released in the 30 Trips box. Beautiful Foolish Heart and first Visions of Johanna since the pair in '86.

Check it out. Great show.

Synchronicity:

"The Race Is On" played while I crawled through traffic in Portland OR. The thing is, I was right by Portland Meadows, a horse racing track.

That was cool.

News story today

about Great Salt Lake drying up

I've heard before about that but...timely given recent SLC mentions

I Live In Utah

The Great Salt Lake drying up has been an issue for some years now.

Your welcome

I'm still protesting over Garcia (50th Anniversary Edition) being released only on vinyl as I have no vinyl setup.

Lakes drying up....

....Hola from the southwest! 👋
In other news, my Phish Farmhouse LP is shipped and the latest archival release was announced today. 6.16.00 Osaka, Japan 🇯🇵. Comes out Friday.

Yes, "heard before about that"

You're welcome

Thanks Nitecat

Looking forward to Healy interviews 2 and 3.

I wonder....

....if Dave Lemieux and Kevin Shapiro hang out and share notes.
The archivists of my top 2 bands. Pumping out righteous tunes.
Currently watching Evil Dead Rise.
Give me your best shot. I can take it. Dogs and son are out.

Evil Dead Rise....

....I love me some horror. And this one fed my fix.
Bravo!!

IceCreamKid

Your welcome. Glad you enjoyed the Healy interview. That was shot in a balcony storage area. The Hunter interview, Constanten interview and Cipollina interviews have been very popular also.

You might also enjoy the Dead Head TV Ice Cream Kids.

Looking forward to a another binge soon!
Keep ‘em coming brother…

Whelp, it finally happened....

....after owning a smartphone since 2011, I'm finally a member of the cracked screen club. Fell literally two feet off my end table, and yes. It has a case. Booooo!

Then yay!!!....

....Mickey released an ATMOS mix of Workingmans.

hey VGUY....

re: your HBD wishes.... I've been a-Head since my first show in '82 (can't get enough) ... but re: Phish, I've seen them at Jazzfest, and was just listening to my only Phish CD, a live one. Love alot of it ... if you're in the know, what other Phish releases would you recommend ... no pressure, just looking for some advice ...I think I have a DVD of a show they did back east as well. thx man!.....tcc

Phish?

Hampton Comes Alive

That and A Live One are the extent of my Phish collection

HCA...nice stuff, I must say

Those dudes from Vermont?....

....New Years '95 and Vegas '96. Clifford Ball. And, of course Hampton.
Anything between 1994 and 1999 gets my blood pumping.
If you want a good laugh, watch Phish shreds IT on you toob.

Hey "That Mike," if you see this, And Phish

You mentioned a couple of weeks back that you had watched Phish's Live in Brooklyn DVD. Wanted to post that is a huge part of my yearly rotation. Listen to it 2-3/year. Just an awesome performance, just one of many I had a chance to see but was too busy at work to go. The last time I was in the Hampton Coliseum was for the recording of Hampton Comes Alive. Think, from memory, it was Cincy, Murfreesboro, and Hampton. A fun little jaunt. All three were wild. Saw Phish first time in November of 1995. A Live One also a great recording. Hard to believe but 2023 marks their 40th anniversary as a band. Happy anniversary Phish!!! Love you guys, get a couple of shows in next few weeks, and then maybe Nashville. Fall dates announced.

What did Mike Tyson say to Bob Wier?....

I've been enjoying these, Scott. Thanks so much for going through the trouble to clean these up and get them out there.

Evokes some great memories.. in the days before internet (at least as we know it now), social media and cell phones.. when Duprees Diamond News was how a lot of us figured out what was going on during the shows we could not attend, this looks like it was put together about this time. I have never seen any of it before.

Thanks again.

Jiminmd - dead head tv

Glad to hear you are enjoying it. When I was producing and directing the show, I tried to make a show I would like to watch, an intelligent comment on the scene, show highlights, tour highlights, what a venue that I could not attend was like. I'd be interested in interviews with people involved in the Dead sphere, and with deadheads themselves, because they seemed to be interesting people. That's why we did "Deadhead Profiles". I felt like the straight media at the time was missing how cool the scene and the deadheads were, and as a professional journalist I could tell the story better, at least from a informed deadhead's perspective. What was amazing is it took off like a rocket, and we soon had all sorts of deadhead friends contributing to the show.
