    Announcing July 1978: The Complete Recordings

    We’re pleased to announce JULY 1978: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS, five incredible unreleased shows and the first official release from the long-lost tapes, recently returned to the Grateful Dead’s vault. Follow the Dead on a sonic journey through a superb selection of settings, an often epic adventure that finds them winning over Willie and Waylon fans in Kansas City, conjuring charisma in Omaha, and elevating the Red Rocks beyond their already spiritual planes. With five distinct performances painting the masterpiece of 1978, Betty Cantor-Jackson's always-pristine soundboard recordings, and the "hall-of-fame pedigree" of the Dead's first-ever shows at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre, this is one release that far exceeds excellence in music, sound quality, and rarity.

    Limited to 15,000 individually numbered copies, JULY 1978: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS includes Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City, MO (7/1/78), St. Paul Civic Center, St. Paul, MN (7/3/78), Omaha Civic Auditorium, Omaha, NE (7/5/78), and Red Rocks Amphitheater, Morrison CO (7/7/78 and 7/8/78) - all of the performances in this collection are drawn from the band’s master soundboard recordings, each newly mastered by Jeffrey Norman. The set also features original artwork by esteemed cartoonist Paul Pope (D.C. and Marvel comics) and in-depth liner notes written by Nick Meriwether (Grateful Dead Archives at the University of California, Santa Cruz), as well as a producer’s note from producer David Lemieux.

    Due May 13th, we anticipate that this extraordinary box will sell out. Your best bet is to pre-order it now, then sit back, relax, and enjoy all the exclusive content we'll be rolling out over the next few weeks right here.

    Looking for something a little more byte-sized? The collection will also be available for HD digital download in FLAC and ALAC, exclusively at dead.net, on release day.

    This is one of the most realistic and simultaneously comical posts that I've ever seen on this site. The sheer effort to write is proof enough. If I was a little closer to the edge, I'd check each of the shows referenced.

    The Doors/Rainier/Picking a Show
    I don't know why the Doors didn't even come to mind when thinking of a candidate for best American band. I was absolutely obsessed with The Doors and Jim Morrison my senior year of high school('93-'94). I think there was a lot of talent in that band. But they only have maybe 2 albums that I would consider good all the way through. Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman are very good albums, in my opinion. I still wouldn't choose them over the Dead though. Besides group talent and number of hits, I have to consider things like longevity of career and range of styles used successfully. All of that Mt. Rainier talk.. I've been working on Mt. Hood(Wyeast, for those of you who like the alternate names) the last two winters. There's not a lot of talk about Hood blowing anytime soon, but it still could. Interesting to know that one of you is visiting Hood River soon. I lived there last winter season while working on the mtn. It's a neat, albeit kind of weird in a way you can't put your finger on, town. Pretty close to Portland. That anecdote about trouble picking a show is pretty hilarious. The struggle is real!!! Luckily for me, being a younger head, there are still a lot of shows I've never heard, so I can usually pick one I've yet to listen to or one that I've only played once. For example, I am playing DaP 2: 7-31-74 for the very first time right as I'm typing this.

    Muleskinner, If you wanted a headlight of the 80's variety, here's a fair belter.... https://archive.org/details/gd88-03-26.sbd.braverman.7164.sbefail.shnf ChinaCat->Rider's actually on the same track. keithfan, Yeah, the Doors would certainly have claim to the ballot for best American band. My affair with them was 8th/9th grade, and I didn't really rediscover them till about five years ago (coincidentally, when a bunch of vault releases were happening). I really love them again these days. (I'm now wondering if my 8th/9th grade years might've been your college ones.) Of course, there's no question it still has to be the Dead. So many levels of singular artistry, and homegrown iconography: the personalities in/of the band themselves, the songs, their lyrics, the live music they composed so beautifully in real time, the consciousness boost from that music, the versatility of styles their songs canvas, and reflect..... And, of course, the wandering country they founded. (With its revolving capital city.)

    I wish I was a flame / headlight
    Red Rocks..I've been once, the Avetts and Old Crow. Really cool..though I originally knew about it from a friend that was a DMB nut. Jeez, I think I had mentally blocked that part. Then I remember seeing Dylan playing Morrison, CO on Boblinks.com (Bill Pagel!) in July 2007..wondering why he just didn't play Denver? Learned a bit more at that time, and he played Friend of the Devil for the first time in 5 years on the 19th...that let me know what Bob thought when he thought of Red Rocks. Still the last time he's played it...not my favorite boot, but still dig that track. And he'll be back at Red Rocks this summer, with Mavis Staples, as Stegner mentioned. We saw the Avetts there in 2013, but they played there the next year with Bob Weir. Must be nice... Anyways, non-sequitur; I am on an I Know You Rider mini-binge..can anyone provide some favorite 'wish I was a headlight' versions?

    I like them. The 1990's resurgence in popularity hit while I was in college, so I heard a lot of great bands cover the doors. Nothing like bong hits and ephedrine and going to the bar with buds and enjoying The End. I think their sound and style is truly original and unique. Man, if Morrison had sobered up, I think they would developed even more. Morrison himself was burned out by L.A. Woman, but as a unit The Doors were just hitting their stride. Their best was yet to come. There were 3 CDs that everyone had in college: Steve Miller Band Greatest Hits, AC/DC Back In Black, and Michael Jackson Thril...no just kidding, The Doors Greatest Hits double CD (I know, I know, where was Peace Frog on that one? We all had one guy in the house go out and buy Morrison Hotel).

Another fine collection of Grateful Dead will be hitting my mailbox or doorstep in mere days. As if Dave's 18 weren't enough, now 5 more Bettys to soak up. What I've heard in the Listening Parties has me anxious to dig in. I'm not huge on May '78, which is mainly what's been released apart from the two Dave's 7 & 15. 7 is my least favorite Pick so far, 15 one of my top 4-6 (depending on my mood). The segues on 15 are not very good, but the songs themselves are extremely well played. The Listening Parties have much smoother segues, particularly that Estimated> Other One> Wharf Rat> Around & Around, but still the same powdery intensity that is the hallmark of '78 Dead. The biggest selling point to me is the 3 Wharf Rats! Was slightly disappointed that May '77 only had one, they killed Wharf Rat throughout '77, particularly because of the addition of Mickey for the huge build into the Fly Away, but Dave's 15 Wharf is probably my favorite version, so I look forward to these, plus Jack Straw, some Scarlet> Fire action. Anyone else excited?

All that talk of Walkerswood made me hungry. Picked up a jar at Kroger for $5, shrimp was on sale for $6/lb. Gonna have grilled jerk shrimp tacos. Just put in 5-9-77, having a beer while the shrimp soaks up some flavor. Will save half of the shrimp for tomorrow, they should be well marinated by then.Cheers, all.

Big shout out to Vince (Vguy72) - was great hanging out with him on Cinco de Mayo down in old part of Vegas. So cool to talk shop with a fellow head. Vince is a great guy - thanks for your hospitality! Vince - I'd post over at DaP18, but have not had a chance to listen to the release yet and would prefer to listen with fresh ears!!! Definitely looking forward to the new boxset! Will try me some of that Walkerswood. They sell the seasoning, marinade and sauce. Which do people use? I made 50 lbs of Jerk chicken wings for a ski club party once. Split the wings into roughly 10 lb bags - did one with 2 Habenero peppers, two with 5 Habenero peppers and two with 10 Habenero peppers. I preferred the 10 pepper wings. It was a lot of work to make - wore cloves but still had lost sensation in fingertips, but did not touch eyes or other parts that would really hurt :o

10oz jar of jerk seasoning hot and spicy will act as the perfect introduction. You can do mild, but the lack of scotch bonnet peppers will be missed. If you dig it, from there explore!We found a Bravo store close y with the full product list. Icecreamkid you are in for a lil bit of heaven with the shrimp. The only thing I've put it on so far that didn't truly rock was a burger. Not bad, but after chicken and shrimp, just not as orgasmic.

That's really great news. I hope I get mine soon and box like by the weekend!I didn't do the Daves script this year, thinking I'd do ala carte instead. But this box really set the hook, I ordered same day as the announcement. 5 shows will provide me a fix for most of the summer. I move slow with these releases, needing 6 or more spins to get the understanding of a show. Funds are low so I'm picking my cherries this year. Hope we all have um soon.

These Red Rocks shows are all-timers and we get all new Betty Boards! I absolutely CAN'T wait!! Beautiful artwork, essays and pics. Plus, the "Full Norman"? Yes, yes and YES! So excited that some of us will soon be holding this wonderful set in our hands and sitting down and pressing play. What a journey this will be. Absolutely nothing to dislike about this. :) Thanks to DL2/Pinkus and everyone at Rhino for pushing these projects into reality for us. This will be sold out soon and what a treasure it will be for years and years to come! Enjoy the >Jam

Not great timing.. but like Dantian before me my CD's get delivered by horse and it seems to take a fortnight from their shipping barn in Va. I'm heading to Philly to stalk some mailboxes of some heads I know. I need this box set now! (kidding.. reminds me of that scene in Willy Wonka, Daddy, I want an Upmah Lumpah now. Man.. those Umpah's really freak me out. Like... "cool it on the brown acid you guys, you're beginning to scare the grown ups").

Just got my shipping notice, still waiting for the delivery date to be updated. I feel like a child on Christmas Eve, really excited for this set. I skipped the Daves picks this year and am going to pick up 1 that is tbd. I have a question about HDCD and what people are using on here to listen to that higher res 20-bit format. I'm aware that the HDCD will play on a regular cd player via regular 16-bit playback, but I was wondering if anyone on here has a HDCD player, and where they got it? Or if people on here are using windows media player to play and hear the HDCD format (does WMP play out in 20-bit formats, thought they may since Microsoft owns the HDCD copyright now)? Any info and help on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks you.

There was lot of noise regarding this about a year or so ago. wjonjd and fourwinds did a lot of research on it (I think).. lots of back and forth on specs, what to play it on, what the impact is, etc. I think wjon burned from two different players to file and did some analysis on the resulting lossless digital files too, but could be wrong about this. In summary.. playing on a standard player does not seem to make a very noticeable difference in the sound quality. Keithfan had the best advice on buying a player, instead of rolling out big bucks for a new one, look on EBay. I got mine for something like $40 + shipping. I rarely use it..

No shipping notice. Passing the time with DP14 while I smoke some baby back ribs. One of those "no Donna" releases. That Eyes of the World from November 30, 1973 (disc 2) is bonkers. That is all. Edit: I've never heard a Brown-Eyed Women like that. DP14 has some amazing moments.

Rec'd my shipping notice and its with "FedEx SmartPost," a new one on me. The tracking # actually works and it indicates that FedEx got the "information" at 8:12am on Fri, May 6. Shipping notice from dead.net today, May 11. I'm outta here to the backcountry Mon, May 16, so I'm hoping to get my sweaty little paws on this baby by Sat. Or get the neighbors to keep an eye out. Come July it'll be 38 yrs since we fried our brains on the Rocks two days running for those July 7/8 shows. I still retain and experience little visual flashes of that stand on occasion. AND hitting the Rocks this year for Dylan, Tedeschi-Trucks (Los Lobos opening -- my two favorite live bands in one show) and Bonnie Raitt. My 42nd year at the Rocks. Oh, wait, shouldn't have defined myself as "old foot-in-the-grave hendrixfreak"... too late!!

....man, life sucks. I personally, have never had a release arrive a week later than when the first announcements started ringing. Never had a box cutter, missing disc, etc. Fresno has a small issue in Row Jimmy that even toothpaste can't fix. Can't explain why some heads get the slow boat to China. Some ship UPS ground, some USPS media mail, others FedEx air. Fucking weird business model. But, in the end, strap them on a sloth riding saddle on a slug. Just keep feeding me Seymore....

Lets see mine did something at crozet, va on the 6th. Six days later it made West Virginia, says in 6 more days will be here. Almost 2 weeks to go all of 1200 miles. That's worst than book rate at the post office.

But thanks for the vibe, JimInMD... It's kinda sparse pinon-juniper trees scattered across the savannah, but dense enough in places to give cover to the beasts. (Yes, including me and the four-leggers...) Today the tracker said that while "information" had been "delivered" to FedEx on May 6, an actual pkg left W. Virginia this morning. Yep, that'll arrive while I'm gone. Perhaps FedEx has the tracking thing down pat and that's its involvement? That might be an improvement over the "USPS" tracking, which has never worked for me. Had a flash last night to hold the RR shows til July 7/8 and do a back-to-back listen, but acknowledged to self that that's not realistic. Too eager to hear the tapes and compare new RR with old, boot RR. I'm thinking the quality difference will be tres noticeable.

Got my shipping conf and it should be here on Monday. I haven't been this excited for a release in a while. The clarity on these recordings is incredible, the subtle effects on Jerry's rig really ring and I'm basing this off of a lossy streaming format, stoked here!! I also bit the bullet on several Europe 72 shows, some of the more popular ones, 4/8, 4/24, 4/26, 5/4, 5/11, and 5/26. Looks like most of them are back in stock, although it also looks like 4 or so have been permanently removed, like 5/3, 5/10, and 5/25.

I try to give a listen-through to most all of the shows as soon as I get them in case there are sonic or physical issues with the discs that might necessitate a return...

Shipping notice received and seconding that emotion by Space. I really dig Summer 89. I revisit the Truckin' To Buffalo and Crimson releases often when I'm in the mood for later Dead! Peace.
