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.

Another pathetic effort. Matthews, Marner and Tavares should be ashamed of themselves. All of the big money boys failed to show up.

Kezar, Bush

Yes DR, looks like a 3 set show. 11 song 1st, 11 song 2nd, 9 song 3rd, and 2 encores. Now those were the days (that I never saw). Hometown crowd, daytime show, Jerry acknowledges crowd with a real happy to be here or the like on third song or so. Notes say first show after Pigpen's death but not sure. Should be a killer for the HCS box!
Sam Bush has been at every (I think?) Telluride Bluegrass, now on it's 50th year! Now that's durability. His sets are usually billed as the house band. A very talented and versatile musician. So many greats have graced that little stage. Would have been killer to see the Dead there in '87. I passed foolishly.
Cheers

It's a three-set wonder, as are all the shows in May plus 6/10/73.

These shows were so long it would have been tricky to get them released as Dave's Picks. May 73 had box set written all over it. HF, did they contact you for the liner notes on 6/9 or 6/10? (kidding, but they should have contacted you)

Haven't made the Telluride Bluegrass Fest yet.. but it's on the list. Been to many DelFest's. Lot a poor man got them Cumberland Blues....

Kezar 73 tape. Two first sets?

Istshow- I had a really good sound quality of that on tape too. Then a recording I downloaded onto a cd from a website -possibly called Deadshow of the month. There were a few podcasts I used to be able to record onto cds about 15 years ago. I could never separate the tracks though - so a 7 track cd would only play as one track, with no way of accessing individual tracks. If you had a break half way through - you had to go back to the beginning.

But the Kezar recording stands out in my memory as being really good quality, and a really good show. I can remember thinking at the time though,that the first set seemed really, really long. Almost as though they played two first sets,then came on and played the the third - and this third was more like a typical second set. One I used to like playing in the car on long drives "up north". Memory is a funny thing, though.

Good call on Sam Bush!

I wasn't overly familiar with him until a festival called, Del Fest, came to my hometown of Cumberland, MD!

Sam Bush has been there I think every year of the festivals 15 years.

His enthusiasm and skill radiate from the stage!

Also, how cool is the fact that my hometown is called, Cumberland!!

Variety Sunday

Finishing my excellent Kezar '73 tape - 2nd set left.
23rd annual Telluride Bluegrass festival - 6-22-96, Sam Bush & friends sets.
Doc & Richard Watson - Third Generation Blues
If I can get all that in.
Aren't they playing some hockey today/tonight? Seems like a lot of time between games. Playoffs take forever and viewing competition with NBA and now even baseball.

Vocals are in stereo

At least they are on the DaP 46 I received in the mail yesterday.
Arrived 9 days after I received the email with the tracking number. That’s normal for my orders.

Yesterday listened to the bonus disc first as a warm up, then set 1.
Now on set 2 and the China Cat->Rider was very nice.
Sound quality is great.
Will listen to all the CD’s to make sure that they are not defective, then copy to HD, rearrange the tracks to correct order, convert to ALAC, and load onto a music player.
Will also combine and put in order all tracks from 9/3 that we have from the bonus disc and DP36.

And yes, just ejected CD2 and put in CD3 so that I can listen to the show in order.
Still less work than flipping vinyl.

The cover artwork makes me think of Hotel California.

Thanks Dave/Rhino/OSF/Norman/etc.
Keep the releases coming!
And where’s 3-2-69 vinyl?

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.

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.

3 31 73

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.
