Can anyone do a rare Dead VHS of So Far transfer to DVD?

Hello, I have a VHS tape of the Grateful Deads So Far. It came out in 1987 but has some of New Years 1985 on it also. It blends live Dead playing and creating in a controlled environment with live 1985 New Years mixed in. Pretty cool but i'd like to transer it to a DVD. Tape song list is: Uncle Johns,Playin, Terrepin, drums/space, Throwing Stones and Not Fade Away. I'll send you the vhs tape and you can make a copy for yourself and me and send it back. Whatcha say.

I'm not sure it's the same show

but I would recommend heading for the Vineyard, where there is a Pigpen Bring Me My Shotgun vine.

Grateful Dead Live at Fillmore West on 1969-06-05

The other night we heard on http://concerts.wolfgangsvault.com the second set of the 1969-06-05 show. We loved the playing but we just rolled over with laughter listening to Lovelight. Can anyone help me find a site where I can download this show? I looked in the Internet Archive but this show is only in streaming format. We like to have it on CD. As for trading: I have little to offer as most of the shows are downloadable from the Internet. Ship of Fools

Free Tapes, Wow

Greetings bwelker, Sure would love to hear your shows. I'm sure you want them to go to a good home. Since hearing about the spring tour I'm newly excited about trading. I just got tix to The Forum and Shoreline shows and am planning on taping them. These shows will be my second chance to see the Band. I was lucky to see them in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in '92'. Never thought I'd get the chance again. I'm now researching the equipment I need to record the shows and also use it to convert my 40+ tape collection. So I'm super excited about all this and would love to share my tapes too. If you want CD's of my stuff I'll do the lossless conversions. I haven't forgotten the grate attitude deadheads have and am happy to be getting back to the community finally. grateful, Longrifle

Bye and Bye

I believe that was the rendition of the wheel from Garcia's first studio album. It is a wonderful document to Jerry's brilliance. Check it out (some other great versions of songs you love and some you might not love yet, but will!) The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

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.

Vintage Tape Decks need a good home

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
