I join in the request

from gdhead77 for JGB Albany 2/13/80. Great show. Made the trekfrom Binghamton to Albany. Don't remember much as I was studying "Chemistry" as well, but I do remember a great Mission in the Rain. I also seem to recall something odd about the opening act, but I can't remember exactly. Anyone out there know what I am talking about? Seems like we were at a lot of the same shows, especially at Nassau and Radio City. We probably ran into each all the time. "Let there be songs to fill the air."

Impossible???

Been searching for 20+ years for SBDs of the following: Dead: 1/10/79 Nassau Coliseum (according to lemieux is not even in vault and I assume given to brent for practice) - my 1st show dark star, st. stephen... well now you know why I have been hard core for 30 yrs now! 10/12/84 Augusta - I have the circulating version with static throughout 1st set and aud for ujb and on in 2nd set. Anyone have full show SBD... one of the most killer dews ever. JGB: 2/13/80 Palace Theatre, Albany - night before organic chem test and lets just say I was certainly studying chem... An amazing performance and one that I have never seen circulate. I have an extensive list of SBDs so happy to trade. Thanks

I agree Mr. Pid

The wall of sound era is amazing!!! Especially when Phil plugs that quadrophonic bass in and drops some of those sweet "Phil bombs". Jerry's soloing is also sublime and really mellow. He really drives the band to a different level, and they take that ride all the way through the decade (especially '77). And aren't Keith and Bobby the first rhythm devils??? :)

Might want to give 6/16/74 a spin. 3 set show, outdoor venue, Wall Of Sound, and some rather interesting excursions. If you're not up for all 3:58:21 of it, focus on the Eyes>Big River, Playin and then Truckin>Nobody's>Wharf>GDTRFB. Don't let the early tech glitches fool you, it all gets sorted out. You can find it here: http://www.archive.org/details/gd74-06-16.sbd.fink.17701.sbeok.shnf Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

The Grateful Dead Movie

The Grateful Dead Movie Soundtrack is also phenominal. 6 cd's. The best of the best. 1974 and the sound is awesome. Winterland at it's glorious splendor, a magic place you know. Don't go without this in your collection. It's is a bargain also, and mastered in glorious HDCD, which does make a difference. Crank it up and you will feel like you are there, and being there is better than anywhere,it's Winterland!

I have tapes

So…if you’re still interested, I have a box of 64 tapes ready to ship after culling the herd. All Dead, mostly 80’s. I’ll even pay postage, just want to see them go to a good home. Let me know, but I am not very tech savvy, (it was hard for me to even get to where I could post this), so please be patient.

Long time taper here thru the 70s and 80s. I have several tape decks that could use a good home. Nakamichi 1000 and a Tandberg TCD330 that need work. Also a Teac 2300SD Reel to Reel that works fine but could prob use a little tune up. before putting on ebay or FB, wanted to put it our to our community. Anyone out there that knows how to repair or tune up? I am in New Jersey.

Looking for Tapes

Hello there,

I am new to the dead.net forum and am struggling with the private message function - I keep getting an Access Denied error.

I would be interested in any tapes that someone may be looking to re-home and would be more than happy to pay any costs to ship them to me.

I’m a “new” dead head (born in 1990 so I have no choice but to be I suppose). I grew up on American Beauty and Workingmans, picked up guitar in the 90s with heavy GD influence on songs, and got to see Dead & Co at Alpine in 2016.

I have a bunch of old school music equipment both for listening and recording, and want to add some tapes to my collection. Getting harder now it feels like as everything GD is mainstream again (post Sphere even more so?) I snagged a box of reel to reel live recordings for $40 back in 2020; not sure you could find a single reel for that on the internet now.

Im just looking to have these for my collection and experience the music as it’s been experienced over the years without overpaying someone who is just out to make money off something.

Anyhow, appreciate your time, and if anyone happens to have any tapes around still, I’d be honored to add them to my collection.

Thank you,

Gayl from Wisconsin

W.C.

Welcome, and if you're still having issues accessing messages, speak up. I sent you one just to see if it got through. Thank you and good luck in your quest!

GD Cassettes to a good Home

My good buddy and Grateful Dead fan (Jerry) passed away in February. He turned me on to all things GD. I am helping his wife dispense with the cassettes Jerry collected over the last 40-50 years, estimated at appx. 500. This collection is in Charlotte, NC and available to any Deadhead who would enjoy and take as good care of them as Jerry did. If you are seriously interested, let me know. (400 in wall rack + 100 on a shelf). Most are GD, -some Hot Tuna, Airplane mixed in. Hopefully folks can reply and I will see it. Thanks Rick. I have pics of the collection to share if that helps.

Hey there !

Hey there friend. I’m so sorry to hear about the passing of your dear friend and sending all of the love and light possible to you , his wife and loved ones. My name is Kolby and I’m a young head always looking for more tapes to love and baby. I found the dead at a young age and they’ve always been my wise confidants in my ears through my good and challenging times like so many of us. I’d love to hop on a call / a FaceTime call to get a better idea of what Jerry was like and how much these tapes meant to him. Thanks so much for the post as I’m sure it could’ve been a difficult thing to do. Thanks for your words

To BuckyJacket

Hoping to have a warm home to offer to these tapes. It would be my honor to chat! ( responding again because I’m figuring out how this works and hope you can see this ) Thanks again ,
Gratefully, Kolby

Home for Tapes

I am so sorry to hear about that Buckyjacket.
I am in Canada, so I am not sure how helpful I could be, but I would be thrilled to offer a good home to some of the tapes as well! I see Kolby also replied and may well be closer to NC, though.

A welcoming young home for some tapes

Being born in 2001 I never got the chance to be a taper, but after on a whim seeing dead and co in SF at Oracle a few years back while driving cross country to Oregon for college I fell in love with them. I look everywhere for tapes and besides online can’t find any. I would love the honor to hear some of these shows and feel the memories through the music if possible.

BuckyJacket

Bucky! I answered your similar comment on my post on Reddit - live in NC and can happily meet up! Hope you are doing well
