    Best acoustic set ever, hands down plus a face melting electric set.I don't know if there is a copy of this in the vault however. I heard that a better version than what commonly circulates was played on Sirus. Does anyone know if this is true?

    For all those lucky ones that were there, if you looked up to the skies during drums, you may have seen a whirling bird hovering deep into space up there. Guess who was looking down at their own show! They were and still are always an extension of their audience. pk

    Cal Expo. The Rain show, raining in Sacramento in the summer - never happen's unless there is magic in the air and song's to accompany the crazy finger's. Also Mountain Aire, the show that went into space literally during drum's . How much more magic and syncronicity could you hope for? I guess what I mean is it is a dead staple. Pure magic from the skies, just exactly perfect!

    1/22/78
    1/22/78 is a great show and worthy of release. I believe that the first half of the second set only exists in AUD format, so that may prevent it from being officially released. I agree with Cosmicbadger's point that for shows that were officially released Rhino should releasing for download the portion that was left on the cutting room floor so that we can get the entire show. I don't share Stuman's problem with Rhino preventing the streaming of shows officially released. They have to make money. We all clamor for more official releases. We can't have it both ways, beg for shows AND when the show is released expect that we can still stream it. Just my opinions.

    Missing bits
    one idea that I have been promoting from time to time (and in an unanswered message to David Lemieux last year) is for the 'missing bits' from released shows to be released as lossless downloads from this site, - these bits have no real commercial value alone. They are unlikely ever to be a part of another official release if they were left off one already - In the case of the some of the DPs it is only a few tracks - releasing them could actually encourage people to buy the official release that includes the rest of the show -and it would be a really cool thing to do and make a lot of people using this site very happy (and make up for the long gone but not entirely forgotten tapers section debacle) how about it?

    Re Archive.org policy
    As stuman noted, there are many show SBDs no longer streamable from Archive due to "commercial release." Okay, fair enough, when in fact the entire show HAS been "commercially released." What troubles me, though, is when entire shows get disabled when in reality only certain tracks from that show have been "commercially released." A good case in point is the Fillmore East run in April 71. Four CDs of this five show run were released entitled Ladies and Gentlemen, The Grateful Dead. This is a release that I am happy to have, didn't think twice about paying for, and consider it well worth owning a copy of. However, most of the material from these shows is NOT on those CDs. Still, none of the SBDs from these shows are streamable. Since Archive only offers SBDs via MP3 stream, and streams tracks instead of shows, can't the suppression (repression?) of "commercially released" material be limited to only those tracks which actually ARE "commercially released?" I would gladly suffer a little "setlist interruptus" if it meant that we could actually listen to the rest of the performances. As I understand it, Archive's accessibility policy is driven by artist (or more correctly, IP owner's) dictate. So how about it, boys? Free the "unreleased" material! Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    1-22-78 can be streamed
    this show is available for streaming from the archive site. not to offend anyone , but if we keep posting what releases we want to se, then Rhino will eventually completley take it away , that means no streams at all .... i don`t think anyone would like that .. just like the 73 winterland run .. can`t stream that one at all....

    Dicks picks is done
    After the start of Road Trips Rhino officially announced that Dick's picks as a series is over... so don't be waiting for that #37 to come out any time soon. But if they can revive from the Vault series 18 years later we may not see the end of Dick's picks after all. My vote for a release single show would be 1-22-78. AWESOME. And Dick has commented on how much he loved that show. Don';t want to wait 18 years though. I might be dead. "Music is the best" - FZ

There have been so many great guests appear with the boys /girl :>) I could write a book...so from the Beach Boys to Edie Brickell there should be a CD set with guests. Hows that sound? Eric

consider Bruce and Branford. Is it the Hampton show that has that amazing Bird Song? In general, I agree with you though, if only because (Cipollina being a prime example) they were pretty much reduced to playing standards that were in their common vocabulary. Mileage varies considerably though.

Not sure if any of those made DP's. The Palladium Shows in NYC, Cornell, and Buffalo would be a great addition on CD and if only there were video from those shows, that would be amazing! Many thanks Paul ,

Nice Post Marye! There's no doubt the spring '77 stuff is worthy, however, there's so many soundboard quality shows in circulation it would seem to be a duplication of effort to officially release them. Perhaps we have Betty to thank for this? Hey DrkStr Paul: Check out DP #29 & Download Series #1 for your Palladium show. How 'bout the New Year's run '87-'88? Great shows, and I would gladly plop down $30 for it.

I was up close for this show, so I'd love to hear it again. There don't seem to be any copies available. I hope it's in the vault. If not, maybe the Creamery gang has it. Anybody? DW

No one show would accomplish this, but I'd love to have a CD with good live versions of all the original songs, and some of the covers, that were performed after "Built to Last." Good versions of Liberty, Eternity, Days Between, So Many Roads, Way to Go Home, Lazy River Road, Corrina, Easy Answers, If the Shoe Fits, Samba in the Rain, as well as covers like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, It's All Too Much, etc. Steve Premo -- Santa Cruz, California "If there's ever an answer, it's more love" - Tim O'Brien

Marye says: "Our friends the Rhinos have various and sundry new releases in the development process." Pardon my skepticism, but when are we going to see this stuff? My personal opinion is that the lack of new releases is causing the customers (i.e., us) to lose interest. I'd like to see 3 or 4 new CD releases, plus a DVD, every year.

I know I am probably in a small minority but I loved the way the Dead did the old Irish folk song Maid of Fifeo. I heard them do it at a show, had an old soundboard tape which I can no longer find. Is it on any show CDs now ? Tanks to anyone who knows. Burt Bayonne628@aol.com

You are gonna' have to provide a little more info. I searched "maid" "maide" and "fifeo" in Deadbase and there were no matches for song titles containing any of those words. Other possible titles or spellings? Richard

That which you seek may be the Bonnie Lass of Fyvie-o, a folk song also known as Fennario. Peggy-O is a variant of this and although Deadbase does not mention it, the Setlists site returns two hits on 'Fennario' 05/25/95- Memorial Stadium - Seattle, WA 06/04/95- Shoreline Amphitheatre - Mountain View, CA Whether the Dead sang a different version in those shows or any others I do not know Here is one version There once was a troop o' Irish dragoons Cam marching doon through Fyvie-o And the captains fall in love wi' a very bonnie lass And her name it was cad pretty Peggy-o There's many a bonnie lass in the Howe o Auchterless There's many a bonnie lass in the Garioch There's many a bonnie Jean in the streets of Aiberdeen But the floor o' them aw lyes in Fyvie-o O come doon the stairs, Pretty Peggy, my dear Come doon the stairs, Pretty Peggy-o Come doon the stairs, comb back your yellow hair Bid a long farewell to your mammy-o It's braw, aye it's braw, a captain's lady for to be And it's braw to be a captain's lady-o It's braw to ride around and to follow the camp And to ride when your captain he is ready-o O I'll give you ribbons, love, and I'll give you rings I'll give you a necklace of amber-o I'll give you a silken petticoat with flounces to the knee If you'll convey me doon to your chamber-o What would your mother think if she heard the guineas clink And saw the haut-boys marching all before you o O little would she think gin she heard the guineas clink If I followed a soldier laddie-o I never did intend a soldier's lady for to be A soldier shall never enjoy me-o I never did intend to gae tae a foreign land And I never will marry a soldier-o I'll drink nae more o your claret wine I'll drink nae more o your glasses-o Tomorrow is the day when we maun ride away So farewell tae your Fyvie lasses-o The colonel he cried, mount, boys, mount, boys, mount The captain, he cried, tarry-o O tarry yet a while, just another day or twa Til I see if the bonnie lass will marry-o Twas in the early morning, when we marched awa And O but the captain he was sorry-o The drums they did beat o'er the bonnie braes o' Gight And the band played the bonnie lass of Fyvie-o Long ere we came to the Howe of Auchterless We had our captain to carry-o And long ere we won into the streets of Aberdeen We had our captain to bury-o Green grow the birks on bonnie Ythanside And low lie the lowlands of Fyvie-o The captain's name was Ned and he died for a maid He died for the bonnie lass of Fyvie-o

OK, I'm confused now.Peggy-O is an extremely common song for the Dead. Some setlists show it as Fennario but it still sounds like Peggy-O to me. Sorry I can't help. Richard

Ya man - Red Rocks 8/30/78............. I would luv to here this in SB quality. Only out there in good>very good AUD quality (as far as I know). The version of If I Had The World To Give is stunning. My tape cuts off in Around & Around, just about the time your hurling past Pluto. While I'm here I'll throw in Chicago 8/19/80. Same deal - only out there in Aud source but wow ! One of the best Comes A time. Thanks & Cheers...........Burnout

OK, while I'm at it: 12-1-71 Best Cryptical > Other One ever???? also, pretty much anything from that lost fall tour of 72 that might turn up would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks!!!!!

A road trips #2 would be perfect. A whole show from the already highlighted fall 79 tour would be cool. Something that isn't on Road trips #1. Also 4/29/72 that we heard the track from on mondays tapers section would be cool. I'd like all of europe 72 someday. Why not get started. One more I would love something from the 86-89 time I don't think I have any live material from this time and I can't find any official releases either.

I wish they would release a cd of a Deer Creek show from late eighties or early nineties. or a box set from all of them or a road trips with the best of each show. Deer Creek was always a head favorite place to see the boys. I had a lot of great and crazy times there. The riots in 95 sucked but I think a good release would over shadow that incident. I still have the ticket in perfect condition from the show that was cancelled due to the riots. I would also love to see a release from Cincinnati 1989. That was a very good show but I've had a hard time finding a great copy. Please don't forget the Heads from the midwest. The Alpine dvd was good but I would like to see more.

Considering that the Great American Music Hall has been released as One From the Vault, 1/4 of 1975 has been officially released, a higher percentage than any other year. So, I doubt we'll see another '75 release.

Ladies & Gentleman, the Grateful Dead was not enough. We should get the entire week the dead played, from April 25 to April 29th, 1971. With special guests each night like the Beach Boys, Allman Bros, TC, that entire week shoud come out as a mini box set. Pretty please =) Then, the last night of the 1973 tour at the Boston Garden. Three sets of pure heaven. -EW
