    Who's ready to boogie with a little Brent-era Grateful Dead from the Gateway to the West? DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 47 features the complete unreleased show from Kiel Auditorium, St. Louis, MO, 12/9/79 and you're going to need stamina because this one is high energy from start to finish.


    By the time December 1979 rolled around, Brent Mydland had fully cemented his place in the Grateful Dead canon with his twinkling keys, harmonic tenor, and songwriting skills. No more is that evident than at this show boasting 25 songs including soon-to-be classics from GO TO HEAVEN like "Alabama Getaway," "Don't Ease Me In," "Lost Sailor," and the Brent-penned "Easy To Love You." It's also packed with whirling takes on fan-favorites like "Brown-Eyed Women," "Shakedown Street," and "Terrapin Station." And you've never heard a 2nd set quite like this with eight songs before "Drums" including an improvised "Jam" launching from the end of "Saint Of Circumstance." It doesn't stop there though, with a blazing finale of "Bertha>Good Lovin'" and perhaps one of the best versions of "Don't Ease Me In" the band ever did play. We've rounded out Disc Three with an extra nugget from '79.


    Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, this release was recorded by Dan Healy and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Grab a copy while you can.

    JGB and The Dead

    Doing...I got the impression that somewhere along the line, for Jerry, The Dead became a job and the JGB a hobby. That is purely on the basis of listening to recordings, and probably has no basis in fact. Towards the end of my working life, I enjoyed my hobby more than my job- but I was better at my job.
    I had never heard of Bruce until I saw him with The Dead, so it felt mighty strange at Wembley 10/30/90, when he started playing that solo piece. Who he?

    Gary - yes, it seems to me that it can be a mistake to over identify with our bodies.

    Seemed to be as bored as the rest of us during the 49ers - Giants game this evening. So he started talking about some of the older stadiums where the 49ers played.

    That prompted me to listen to 3/23/75 at Kezar Stadium. The SNACK benefit show.

    A short set, but Good Lord. I can’t imagine what the Doobie Brothers were thinking to themselves when they had to follow that performance.

    Purely for personal feels… Two shows I’d love to have as Dave’s Picks.

    Merriweather Post 06/30/85
    Richfield Coliseum 09/08/90

    I suspect these are well embedded in many tape collections. They were two early entries during my burgeoning tape trading forays. Both are available in exceptional quality at the usual repository. These facts lead me to believe that even if folks were like minded in their appreciation of the two performances, no official release will happen any time soon. Too available and too good a quality of sound to warrant special treatment. Mores the shame.

    Merriweather’s Shakedown could be on repeat all night long and I’d be happy. The Richfield, in my mind, is just about THE perfect home stretch Dead show. I have enjoyed Bruce’s tenure, but I find myself less enthusiastic as time passes for some reason. Like many a Dead phenomenon, when he hit, he really nailed it. But when he was hovering I find his playing just adds a distracting layer in the “jangly” part of the mix. He’s just a little too percussive and concussive too often, and it almost feels like there needs to be a “Hornsby Dolby Reduction” setting that needs to be switched on. He, dare I say, grates! To the point of distraction. In fact I’d be comfortable enough to say that it’s my opinion that there isn’t a Dead show that would miss him. Yes, there are some great moments, but they don’t warrant the detracting and distracting “crunching tin foil” mush that he brings to the table nearly 100% of the time. And, how many times do we need a bloody squeezebox solo tearing a new one through yet another generic standard. The novelty wears thin quickly. Again, just one chaps opinion and no malice intended. Hey, I’d give body parts for an 11/01/90 release because that was my one and only show (and an absolute maelstrom of primal electronic bedlam)! Seriously, any bad (and there’s enough of it believe you me) is more than balanced by the sort of Dead show you really didn’t get “to that extent” once the basic first set - second set start - drumz - and night y’all format became the template. That show is not that show without Bruce.

    However! Richfield is not Richfield with Bruce… And Richfield is sublime! Fluid, beautifully improvised, absolutely THE show to demonstrate that 90’s Dead was yet one more brilliant facet of this bands prowess and heart. No Bruce. Just Vince, riding shotgun, occasionally spelling when the journey demanded it but otherwise content to listen and compliment and learn. The mix is stunning. I don’t think you could get closer to a “Whithout a Net” like sound field if you tried. The jams are long and liquid. The whole second set is seamless. The Space is scary and haunting and the old warhorse of Stones/Fade is so solid it demands to be listened to, hard. Likewise the Deal set one closer… Perfect! The MIDI work is sublime and complimentary with Eyes and Estimated clocking in almost a half hour of faultless and considered playing before we ease into yet another perfectly realised little ditty. Terrapin… OK I’ll just get it off my chest and say it… yes, I would shag this show if it were possible (and consensual… obviously. Come on, I’m not an animal!) So, as you can probably tell, I really, really like this show. A LOT!

    Second topic. I have been super impressed with the way the Jerry site has been handling its retail experience. Pricing has been incredibly reasonable. Shipping seems to involve a competent courier and they manage things like duty and tax at point of sale which is hugely appreciated by Johnny Foreigners like myself. It’s nice to be able to pick up releases that for the most part aren’t time or volume limited. Being able to pick up the occasional piece of associated art, a t shirt here or there… And to double take at the price not in fear but with incredulity at how reasonable it is… Top marks and I thought I’d just add to the comments bigging up the Jerry releases. You won’t be disappointed.

    I’ll leave you with a remark my wife made yesterday… “I really like listening to the Jerry releases. It just sounds like he’s having a lot more fun than he does with the main band.”

    Now she listens to the Dead because that’s what I play… a lot. And I’m a bastard music tyrant. She’s OK with the Dead, but she likes the Garcia band releases on their own merit, and I think she’s nailed it to be honest. There’s something about Jerry unencumbered by the all consuming Grateful Dead beast that he definitely displays when playing in his side hustle. Feel free to disagree and educate me otherwise.

    PS. I haven’t spell checked or proofed this. It’s too long to do on an iPad and it’s late, and I’m one month away from two years sober and feeling a little chatty. Apologies. If one person enjoys 1% of this splurge… hey. Job done.

    Take care all.

    Peace

    Stephen.

    Hi Danehead and welcome! My Denmark anecdote - in the mid 90s my wife was trekking through Europe with her then hubby, and travelling by train in a lovely area just north of Copenhagen, when she runs into her brother-in-law on the train, who was touring over there as a wanna be musician. She had no idea he was there, because he was living in South Carolina (still does), and she was living in Toronto. Small world.

    Gary - Your mention of Oteil makes me think of an album I played the other day that features him - Vida Blue (who was a great pitcher in the day, but I digress). An interesting little band with Page McConnell from Phish, a pretty jazzy sound. Worth a listen if you find it.

    Played Bombino “Live in Amsterdam” this morning- one heck of a guitarist, thanks again DHBrewer for the heads up on this guy.

    As for unruly people at concerts, you see it constantly at movie theatres, but I find venue makes a difference - if it is one of the 100+ year old opera style houses that every town has, with ornate Victorian design, I find the bands they book tend to draw a better group of fans, less disruptive. The arena shows are a free for all. Noise, talking, phones. I don’t go to many shows anymore, more because the ticket business would be more honest if it was run by the Mob, just crazy now, but truth is, most of the performers I like have either hung it up, or shook this mortal coil. I actually feel bad that young people didn’t have the joy of lining up for tickets, meeting other like minded fans in the line (not scalpers), and the joy of walking away with actual tangible tickets you could flash like a badge to your buddies.

    Hallo Copenhagen

    Welcome! As others have said "You Can Jump Right In."

    Speaking of Roger Glover, I post on here about a great show I saw at the Saenger Theater in New Orleans, in May (?) 2003. It was a Govt Mule show in tribute to Allen Woody, bass player for the Allman Brothers Band and then Govt Mule. Allen Woody had passed away three years earlier and it was a devastating loss. So Warren Haynes had this tribute called "The Deepest End." He invited bass players from many genres to join the tribute for Allen Woody. I always recommend people get the dvd/2cd set as it is an incredible journey in music. Here is a list of the bass players that played that night:

    Jack Bruce
    Oteil Burbridge
    Bootsy Collins
    John Entwistle
    Flea
    Roger Glover
    Mike Gordon
    Larry Graham
    Stefan Lessard
    Dave Schools
    Mike Watt
    Willie Weeks
    Chris Wood
    Jack Casady
    Les Claypool
    Billy Cox
    Alphonso Johnson
    Phil Lesh
    Tony Levin
    Me'shell Ndegeocello
    Jason Newsted
    George Porter, Jr.
    Rocco Prestia
    Dave Schools
    Chris Squire

    Maybe that will entice some bass players (Alvarhonso?, maybe OB Wan)) to give it a listen. It was a great show but it was Jazz Fest, so it was long, clocking in at over 8 hours. No way I could do that today.

    Edit: Walked away and then confused Roger Clover for Glenn Hughes. Hate that the ole control panel circuits are fraying.

    Dave Rock: I agree 100%. Even though the body breaks down, I too am happier today than any other time in my life. Well, except in shorts bursts of Grateful Dead shows and all its accoutrements.

In 11/20/71. When I first saw this rumor a couple hours ago here, I looked up the setlist hoping it had a Dark Star. Nope, almost the same setlist from Albuquerque. Which, I loved DaP 26 11/17/71 and 12/14/71. I'd be surprised if this is better, and if it's not, then I'd have rather had something from earlier in 1971, before Keith. April or something from summer, as those August shows on DiP 35 are smoking. But also admit to wishing that crap about 48 rhyming led to a release from 1968. This is also another missed opportunity for 8/4/76 to come out of the Vault. If there's a grayed-out silver lining, I hope Bill Walton again submits the liner notes. He'd be happier, as his team went undefeated that year, as opposed to the crushing defeats to come in the season following the 1973 show, which I think he brought up in those liners. Love Walton and his thirst for life. Wish I had that attitude about this release, just nonplussed about it.

46 was by far the Pick of the Year, and among the best in the series, IMO. That was a tentpole show I didn't know I needed to know. I like it better than the Baltimore (9/17?) DiP and Waterbury (9/24?) from 30 Trips. Wonderful companion to 9/21/72 DiP 36 (which didn't really need a companion with that excellent filler from Folsom Field). Off to pick up my replacements for HCS, minus d1 of 5/13, which they ran out of replacements for... But well under the 8 weeks they told me it could take, so that's good.

Boy howdy and hot damn but didn't Billy Strings do a show in Sacto last night. Three and a half hours of music, with no break.

(At what would've been the set break, he just walked to the front of the stage, said he felt like picking, and asked the fans for requests. He wound up doing ten songs, completely off the cuff, mostly bone-basic roots stuff like John Henry and Beaumont Rag. All great!)

Man, that cat can play some guitar. And his band really jams: they took numbers like Turmoil and Tinfoil and turned them into 20 minute improvisations that went from traditional blue grass breakdowns to the surface of Jupiter. And beyond. Some of it sounded, I shit you not, like EDM.

He also seems like a very humble guy, somebody who just loves the music so much he would literally play all night if they'd let him. Kind of reminds me of another blue grass-inspired guitarist we used to know.

One of the best shows I've see in years. (Disclaimer: I was high AF, but I'm pretty sure it would've actually still been really good regardless.) Sky's the limit for this guy. Check him out if you haven't already. Like all musicians worth talking about, he's way better live.

But not a raging doozy

Oh well. Maybe because I am in one of those "anything but GD" phases, I am hohum about this new one. I don't wanna whine....

41 years of consuming mass quantities of GD....have I hit my limit? Or are there still diamonds in the mine?

but I love 71.

I have spent a fair amount of time recently watching videos of people listening to the Grateful Dead for the first time. Pretty cool stuff as most of them are younger. It brings me back to the time when I first heard the band. I give a lot of credit to Jamel. Good job, young man.

This band was a gift to mankind.

Thumbs up for mentioning Donovan. One of the real greats - sadly overlooked. Amazing that he recorded Sunshine Superman as early as 1965.
Blue Oyster Cult too - I played "Spectres" the other night. I'd forgotten how good it is. I like all there albums up to "Fire of Unknown Origin",but if you were only going to get one, "On Your Feet..." would be that one.

Last week, I think it was, I listed my "Top - 3-non-Dark-Star-Daves".. Albuquerque was one of them - it is THAT good.. Hopefully 48 will be as hot.. It can fit on 2 cds, I think - so maybe we will get the Felt Forum Dark Star.. ? Bw to all, from not so sunny Copenhagen.

From what I recall of hearing it when I did all the 71s in order in 2021, this show is above average for 71, but not RJ.
Another missed opportunity for top shelvers like:
11/7/71 DS
12/5/71 DS
12/15/71 DS
12/31/71
10/26/71
10/24/71
Or even perhaps 12/2 or 12/4…

EDIT: 10/26 should have been 10/29

Oro- any of those first three 1971 shows from November and December that you,list with DS, would have made a great release. There might be a risk with 11/20 that it satisfies few people -obviously not the ones that want 80'-90's shows - and maybe not even ones who want more Keith era shows. Some seem happy enough though, so who knows?

They must be saving 1968, primal 1969 -ie from the first 5 months, and 1970 for the beginning of next year.

Hey rockers!!!

Only time for a short response..............

11/20/71 is a decent, solid, good show. No classic, but not junk either. Personally I would be happy with its release, but I have a big biased toward 1971. One thing working in its favor is the fact that really high quality copies are not commonly circulating, fair-to-middling FMs are pretty much what's out there.

As many others have said, there are many other better 71s, but TPTB don't always release what we think is "best". I'm still waiting for a release of full soundboard 12/5/71---one of the great Holy Grails of a very fine year. 12/1 would also be an interesting release, especially if they could find the "missing soundboard" of the first set.

Have really been in serious lurker mode recently due to health issues with myself and my wife, but I still check in occasionally.............

Rock on!!

It's the best, the food is outta control. Sushi, chowder, salmon, all incredible. For out of towners, I take them to Matt's at the Market. When I'm down there by myself, there is a hole-in-the-wall named Oriental Mart. They won a James Beard for authenticity or something, been there like 30 years. Top it all off with a beer at Old Stove Brewing you got a day! Only bummer is the city started allowing cruise ships to dock at the pier (2014ish) where Pike is, and man do they crowd the place up. It's always been crowded, but now it's insane, at least until cruise ship season ends, which I think was Oct 1. Moved here from MD 26 years ago and loved it from day one, I also enjoy rain though, so.....

OROBOROUS................

10/26/71 was released long ago, it was in the digital download series. Second set a bit "short" but has some great playing. The October Detroit show with the Dark Star would be a good release----Latvala himself rated that Star very very highly. New Years 71 is the typical loose, fun New Years show, with some very fine moments.

Interesting that several Fall/Winter 71 shows have been released, but except for the FE mini-box nothing from April has popped up. Perhaps a box set one of these years? I would recommend second Music Hall, Pittsburgh, Bucknell (ethereal and we know it's in the vault), Cortland, Providence (delightfully crunchy), and Bangor (one of my little guilty pleasures and such fun). A Manhattan Center mini-box would also be nice.

You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus............

Rock on,

It was actually the announcement in late 2016 (that Dave's Volume 22 would be 12/7/71 Felt Forum) that finally got me to become a Dave's Picks subscriber.

But I'm still waiting for 12/5/71. I can cite several shows that basically changed my life... 8/27/72, 2/9/73 and 5/26/73. But if we go back to '71, this second night of four at the Felt Forum is my pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow. Please please please Dr. Lemieux, let this one see the light of day. The FM has sustained me all these years, but...

If fall 71 is the pick, bring it on! It's kinda funny this date has been "leaked" as DP #48, as i've been spending some time with the fall 71 releases the last week or so. The 11/15/71 Road Trips release is a favorite, Absouloutly amazing stuff! A very Jerry show indeed!

I gave the 2015 bonus disc from 3/27& 3/21/72 a spin today on my walk. This is some absoultely primo stuff. If you haven't broken this one out in a while, do so! ASAP

If it really is going to be 11/20/71, I recall it was broadcast live on FM radio. I was a senior in high school living in the LA area at the time and just getting into the Dead (Dark Star on Live Dead did it - with some help from the orange). My friends and I were at a house for a typical party (beer, weed and in search of the allusive females). The concert was on the radio and we were not really listening to it but we all kind of enjoyed it.

Turns out a friend of mine had his reel to reel going and caught the Truckin-TOO-Ramble on Rose part. We listened to this a lot and thought it was fantastic. I guess most (if not all) the concerts on that tour were broadcast live so I expect some other releases down the road (Dave's 79?).

This should be a fun companion piece to Dave's 46...both in LA a little less than a year apart. Same lineup. Someone else here mentioned they thought 46 was the highlight of the year and I would not challenge that.

Thanks Dave and all the Powers that be for the incredible releases. What other musical institution does this kind of thing? History at our fingertips.

HB672 - you're not wrong there. An avalanche of Dead FM recordings - quite a few from 1971, have been released in Europe over the last 5 years or so. There was a bit of chit chat on here a few years ago about one of these - a box set of
7 Dead shows from 1971 referred to as the Yellow Box. To me, they are in the same bag as bootlegs - they are alright if you have everything officially released and want more on cd or vinyl, but they aren't up to the standard, sound wise, of Dave's Picks or anything released on here. I would replace any of one the shows in the Yellow Box if it was to be released as a Dave's Picks.

It's not just the Dead that have shows released in this grey area, of course. A heck of a lot of live Pink Floyd from 1970-1972 has also been released recently. Again FM recorded shows mainly. The same seems to apply - not the greatest sound quality, but interesting enough. Occasionally there are reviews on Amazon, where someone complains about the sound quality - which does suggest they think they are buying something the bands in question have approved. Which is clearly not the case.

Yes, that's a cracker. It would be great if something like that could come out as a Dave's Picks. Never mind 3 cds of really well played shorter songs, with a bonus disc and merchandise. Just a single disc of pure gold.

Morning, rockers!!!

The yellow box of 1971 FM broadcasts is a bootleg and should be avoided. Especially because very high quality copies of those shows freely circulate, and there's people willing to share. Hint hint..............

Two other 1971 Dead shows were widely bootlegged---the 12/5 Felt Forum show and the 7/2 Fillmore West show. Yes, I had those way back in the day..............

As far as the recent live Floyd releases, those are well circulated and pretty much all audience recorded shows, except for one very early 1972 partial show, which is a sub-par soundboard. Decent enough sound, and some of the earliest live Dark Side material out there. As a huge Floyd fan, these are interesting historical documents, but almost all have been around for quite some time. Not sure why the Floyd released all these, but I think it has to do with some quirky European copyright issues.

Off to the morgue, hafta take care of a double homicide.............

Music, the greatest good that mortals know and all of heaven we have hear below........

Rock on!

Danehead - from what I see, 2 of the sbd reels from this show have been circulating for awhile but not the one on JOTW. Notes regarding the earlier circulating reels state that Latvala couldn't find others from this show in the vault so maybe the JOTW is returned reel(s), possibly one of several for the show (fingers crossed). You can stream those early circulating bits on either relisten or the archive, plus there's an audience tape of whole show that to my ears sounds okay for the era (okay, at times a bit too "audiency.") Of note, show had last Cosmic Charlie until 1976. A lot of Pig harp playing on Trucking! And yeah PF, that's very much a harsh cut at the end. Sigh.

Decided to spin 11/17/71 ABQ in anticipation of the new DaP coming our way.

Enjoy the Fall weekend folks. It's sweet weather here in the Desert Southwest.

The release that really turned me on to '71! Shines something raw and brilliant. Also my favorite artwork for the DaP releases. Especially that hologram version.

Lightnin' Hopkins, Live at the Rising Sun
Bob Dylan, Fallen Angels
Bob Dylan, Rough and Rowdy Ways
Bob Dylan, Love and Theft
Bob Dylan, Nashville Skyline

(getting ready to see our Bard next Saturday)

....they have plateaus and clouds and green chilis for dayssss.
And a top five state flag to boot.
The Santa Fe shows will eventually be officially released. Mark my words.
Dave! Do it! It would be welcomed with open arms! Trust me.
Vguy72 drops the gavel. End of session.

"Oracle Rising: the Re-issue of the "San Francisco Oracle"
"San Francisco Oracle" Publisher Allen Cohen was a psychedelic pioneer during the wild days of the 1960's Haight/Ashbury. In this DTV interview we are re-releasing this week, he describes the rainbow-colored newspaper of art, poems and insightful articles as "the Rosetta Stone of the forgotten civilization called the Hippies."

Find it at dreamswedreamed dot com.

A personal note: this is the last video we released from episode 17 of Dead Head TV. When Brent Mydland passed suddenly in July 1990, the DTV crew put aside several upcoming video projects to produce during several months a half-hour tribute to Brent, which would become episode 18, the last episode of Dead Head TV. Stay tuned, we will release the Brent Tribute very soon.

We're currently in Lake Tahoe, California, and we're going to see Billy Strings tomorrow at the brand new Tahoe Blue Event Center, located barely past Stateline. I saw him last year at Frost, right before Hardly Strictly weekend. Great show, electric bluegrass with a touch of psychedelia. We have the ultimate nosebleed seats, all we could get, but Billy has a fine light show and projections so I think we'll be alright. I'm looking forward to checking out this brand new venue!

Just finished my first listen to this release. Love the tiger artwork. Really strong release, Jerry sounds great. The bonus stuff from The Stone is an extra treat, a little looser with great jamming. Jerry's guitar tone is exquisite. KInd of surprising to see Jerry with two keybordists, Melvin on B3 and Jimmy Warren on Keys. Adds another dimension, I think. Time for me to listen to this again.

Got Third Man's Vault 57 in yesterday. (all the Syd Barrett solo albums)

Very nice job on the packaging.

(also the shipping box was GREAT. Be very hard to damage in a box like that)

Come on. Why have there been no Greek releases? 10/20/68 not included.

9 11 81 BTK and Marye RAVE about this show
9 12 81 LOADED
9 13 81 yup
5 21 82 tasty
5 22 82 is playing as I write this
5 23 82 yowzah

And many more

Either not in vault (boo)
Saving for a box set (saving up for that in my wookie bank)
Or the honey badgers dont care.

I will go with the second option to win and the first to place.

The third option is unthinkable.
