    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.

    ....no Cumberland. Joking of course. Cumberland was in hibernation mode at this time. I looked through my old tapes (yup, still got 'em). I have the 7.8.78 show, but no others. I'll be popping my first week of July 1978 cherry with this set, and the price is just exactly perfect. Happy camper indeed. Ohh, the surprises that await. Been listening to a lot of '76 and '78 recently. Looks like that trend will continue. Life is good. Ignore the haters. We are blessed that these Betty's are Normanized and released to the flock....

    1978 was a pretty good year won't say their last great year but a great year...I used to have the july 4th show on cassette but just tossed all my cassettes when CDs and CDRs got big...as there's 35 dicks picks, not sure how many road trip, dave's picks is up to 17 or 18 as we speak...then there's all the rhino releases and of course the numerous box sets so a lot of live grateful dead to listen to...this one is exciting because it's one we weren't expecting and I love the set list of the songs performed...for me this is a no brainer to get and am truly excited about receiving this in may sometime...you know there's going to be a Christmas time release which is September? Am I right in thinking that? I do know they did have spring releases but not sure if they followed that up with another box set in the fall...I don't think they'll ever have another 30 trips box set again...i'd truly go broke if that was an every year type deal but being addicted to this music i'd probably be in...but you know someday this will run out but it's not to say i'm bored because i'm not I listen to all the stuff I bought from them i'd easily say I listen to the Grateful Dead the most.

    Spacebrother Red Rocks July 78
    Is the cream of the crop from the bunch, however I do love the 80's and Red Rocks. 2nd set of 6.14.84 killer ! For mid eighties Bring on a Ventura from July 1984 and add the Greek for good measures. Now that Red Rocks78 is on the way the 2nd set from 7.13.84 needs to be revisited. That one oozes legends. BCT84 run is also of some of the highest quality Stand alone from 84 is for sure to 6.27.84 Merriweather :) But if they could muster up the tape of 4.29.84 I would be in line for that as well. 6.30.84 also has a lot of Aces served up. I would love to see a 1984 set

    I am often critical of dead.net/rhino, but for this release I have to give credit where credit is due - great selection, good price (easier to get the wife's approval), limited- but there is a large amount available, and an individual stand alone show from the run is also being released for those who just want from what I hear the most popular show. I can only hope that this is a new standard, and for this price I would be willing to purchase another box later in the year. The Nashville show also helped sell this for me. Its interesting to think of the uniqueness of shows that follow a prime year- there is an interesting unknown quality that I think is a good change up. I'm thinking of '71, '73, '75-76, and '78. Looking forward to this release- thanks again dead.net/rhino.

    SpaceBro I feel your pain. You've been polite with wanting more diversity and your stories about 80's shows are awesome. I hope this boxset gives you something special for DP's 19 and 20.Fox, you tend to show up to cause trouble with stupidity. My suggestion is to crawl back into your hole. I feel sorry for the 80's to 95 group. I really do and thank you for letting me keep the the spring of 90 box and still be able to get the 30 trips box. Those shows by themselves were not worth what you paid for because 30 trips is really priceless. Sorry but sacrifices had to be made. So yes I Ebay and I also contribute to the second hand market. If you don't like it don't buy it. This is a cock tease for whats to come for some of us and I'm ready for a slow fucking from these tapes so let us get off instead of talking about years for a minute.

    Yeah, isn't that crazy? I had copied the songs from the set list above and put them in a notepad document with the intention of sorting in an Excel sheet, but I had to strip away all of the extraneous data first (the names of the shows, the CD #s, etc, as I see you also had to do). After I pared it down to just the song names, I was able to import the txt file into one column of an Excel sheet and sort it. Then I copied it and went to post it and saw yours and thought we have too much time on our hands. I can't wait for May. 2 shows from June '76, 5 shows from July '78. What else could I ask for? Ok Full Norman and a cup of coffee. I'm listening to a decent board of 12-15-72. Just about anything from 1972 with Dark Star has my vote for release, but this one has an incredible Jam between Truckin' and Dark Star, and then it goes into Morning Dew. My only complaint with Lemeuix, Rhino, and Dead.net, is that they're not releasing material fast enough. I want it all. Well, the 70s stuff at least. I have a sinfully narrow music collection, and a penchant for repetition.

    If they're already releasing 7/8 as a stand alone is it possible that eventually these will all be sold as individual shows? Maybe I'm missing it but I don't see anything about these never being available in CD format again. I don't really care about them being sold again as I'll likely die with this box and the rest of my Dead collection. I have no intentions of re-sale. It would just really suck to someday get the next DaP of my subscription to find it's a show I already have in this box. It's not really that far fetched to hear them saying how great the Omaha show was in this box and so many people missed out and have been asking for it that they released it as DaP 25.

I can get as antsy as the next guy waiting for this gem to hit my doorstep, but I think a lot of folks are forgetting one thing: When this was announced and orders taken, it was stated the they would ship May 13th. People! That is just this past Friday. So had Dead.net stuck with that, the earliest any one could have expected it was TODAY! So chill out and think about that for a moment. My delivery has been saying this Wed. all along, but it just got updated to Tuesday. I never count week ends in my calculations, so that means I got it in 2 shipping days. What more could I have reasonably expected? Now where the hell is my Dap19? Friggin' Fed Ex. LOL! Rock on

Received this past Saturday. Sounds great. 7/5 Omaha, Sugaree starts out a little rough, fades in then gets dialed in, also a little "weirdness" in BIODTL for a couple of seconds. Minor quibbles. Can't wait to listen to the rest.

I have no inside information on this, which leads me to believe it was Zuckfun and his band of felonious monks aka Operation Kung Pao that got us the Returned Betty Boards. I'm not sure if we will ever find out the complete, true story or if we want to. Like in the movie, A Few Good Men.. sometimes the truth is better left unknown.

Got box today .... Just listened to a few songs and it sounds fabulous! Norman and Betty did a great job. I haven't listened to much but this sounds like one of the better recording releases from a quality perspective. Not as crazy about the box design artistically. Nothing wrong with it just don't like as much as other releases Also got a E72 disk in same mail run so what a day. Plus still working my way thru DaP 18 and 30 trips. It's madness all the dead music I have. With 3 little kids there just isn't enough time!

This release has changed my perception of 1978. I used to think 1977 was THE peak and that 1978 was the unruly, less talented older brother. I now see (as Dave kinda said) 1977 as being consistently high, with 1978 having major peaks and troughs, BUT those peaks being just as high as the best 1977. And even kicking it up a notch, with a different energy. 1978 is just so ballsy and energetic, and I would bet some songs peaked in '78 rather than '77. So.... which songs were better in '78 than '77? I now see '77 vs '78 as comparable to "Sandy" at the beginning vs end of Grease. 1977: prim and proper, coloring inside lines, aiming for perfection. 1978: with perfection having been achieved, now showing a little leg, taking risks often with thrilling results. It depends if your in the mood for "preppy Sandy" or "leather Sandy". This month I'm all about "leather Sandy". Thanks Dave.

I got up at 4am this morning so I could RIP all 12 discs and begin the relabeling process that I'm sure many of you go through with each new release. As part of my process, I prefer to find the best Cover Art available so that the beautiful artwork is in full display on the player... Can someone provide me with a link to jpg of the full CD cover as opposed to the small picture of the CD case partially opened (displayed at the top)? Thank you, iGrateful

Still waiting for my box. I will say it again. Dead.net is THE worst shipping company of all time. Nothing else even comes close. Those of us that pre-ordered this forked out 150 bucks UP FRONT months ago and most of us are still waiting. It's beyond ridiculous for the box to not be in our hands on or before the release date. It made me super angry to see the stand alone 7/8 show at Barnes and Noble this weekend and I don't even have it yet! So terrible and just not a good way to treat folks. No bonus disc, no free shipping for pre-orders and now it's almost a week past the release date. I'm getting fed up. I understand patience and all that but this is about how to conduct business and has nothing to do with the music. They have GOT to fix this!

There does seem to be a little sonic oddness at at the 1-minute mark. Goes in and out for about 10 seconds, but I can't tell if it was P.A. noise in the recording or something else. My initial impression of this set is very favorable so far. I don't generally spend a lot of time in this era, but I think I'll be listening to this one quite a bit. I also got the lowest number yet on one of these. Said number is d@mn close to double-digits. For all intents and purposes this matters not, of course, but was still pretty cool to see when I opened the box!

FedEx handed it to USPS at 5Am today in SF. I suppose it will be delivered to me tomorrow. I do remember when GDM products regularly arrived at my door on the "release date", or even a day early. This is not a big issue for me. But if GDM ever sends me a questionnaire about service satisfaction, this is another element of their service that won't get a "very satisfied" answer from me. GDM: "They may not be the best at what they do, but they are the only ones who do it".

Once my July '78 Box lands, I'll be making hi-res scans of cover art of box and all five shows. I've been doing this for several previous releases and some of you have already asked for cover art for this box. When I've got the scans ready, I'll repost to let you know – tomorrow maybe?

Well if there's any unevenness in this show, I didn't hear it (though I'm working while i listen, so not full attention). Just finishing set 2 now - the sound is so up-front and in your face! Jerry's guitar tone is bang-on. Everyone sounds so engaged. I was listening to Stella Blue and totally lost track of time and what song it was - just blissing out on the aural nirvana - in the moment - I love when that happens. The whole 2nd set is a joy.... Scarlet>Fire, Dancing are in the same Zip Code as Cornell. Stella Blue is riveting. Werewolves may be the best I've ever heard - not as crazy-manic as 7/8, a little more thoughtful - I'm REALLY digging this release. Cheshire cat grin as I put on 7/5/78 which, if I'm reading all the tea leaves correctly, is the best of the first 3 shows in this box... 7/5/78 BIODTL weirdness at 1:00 sounds like feedback/stage gremlins mucking with the monitors.

Got my box set yesterday and have been listening nonstop. I ordered about 2 weeks ago and got # 030xx, cant remember exactly. What #'s did you guys get? Curious. Also received a few Europe 72 shows last week and man I'm loving those, one drummer, one show without Donna, and Pigpen loud and proud. Such an amazing tour that I'm just now getting familiar with. I love this band!!

mcgruber, Hysterical. Evidently the box # has nothing to do with the date/time the set was ordered. I ordered within a couple of hours of it being available and received my set Saturday. I got box 14,997! But it's the music that counts - right. And from what I've heard so far that's been very, very good. Both in terms of set and sound quality.

#2547 has landed in western CT. and it is a thing of beauty! I do like the looks of the May '77 box also, but to me, this one has more of the "Dead" look. It will sit proudly on my shelf next to the May '77 box for all to admire. Now, on to the music! Rock on

My copy of July '78 left Crozet VA with Massachusetts on its mind, had motor trouble in West Virginia, met some friends who helped it to Northborough MA, and now it's working on a t-bone steak over Boston, hopefully touching down at my house today. When it does, I'll be sure to give it a chance to call Tidewater 4-1009.

Agree, this is much more the "Dead Look" than May 1977. I thought that was a weird choice of art (the May '77 that is). But anyway, mine is close, possibly there already: 5/17/2016 - Tuesday 7:20 am Out for delivery KeithFanVille, NJ Out for delivery with the U.S. Postal Service

Box #02331 landed just outside of Philly yesterday, but like Sixtus, I've got 2 little guys under 2, so I'm going to drop in disc 1 of 7/1 tonight. Can't wait! I am really liking the artwork of this box and the DaP artwork this year as well (wasn't crazy about last year's). I have to give a big ol' thank you to all of you on here each day. I have followed along on the various threads for quite a while, but I haven't posted until now. I just couldn't sit out anymore. There is too much great info, knowledge, and good energy that floats through here. You guys rock! In the immortal words of Pierre Robert- "God Bless the Grateful Dead!" Happy Listening!

In W.MD. 07066 was delivered, the rider is resting up and the horses being fed for the return trip. Its a beautiful box. Lets see what it sounds like. Thanks all.. and seriously, I have been waiting patiently 38 years for this.. so waiting a couple days past an estimated ship date is no biggie for me. It looks great, no visible box cutter marks or scratches. Made my day. And welcome aboard, Old Chief Smokem. Its no surprise to see another tribal leader here. I have come to the conclusion that most of the leaders of the free world are deadheads and frequent this site, and a couple despicable despots. Occasionally they let slip their tell, and you can figure out who they really are (lookin' at you Putin).

Mine shipped Thursday, sat in Ohio Friday through Sunday, arrived in my state Sunday night, in my home town Monday night, mail carrier already came by for the day today (Tuesday) without package, so mine is sitting in my local post office and likely won't arrive until Wednesday. It's been sitting at my local post office for 2, going on 3 days. Sadly, it's only a 10 minute walk from my home to my local post office and I can't just go there and pick it up. MusicToday had a better shipping system in place.

This might just be the best 2 track sound I've heard from the Dead. 7.8.78 is very crisp and clear with punchy drums and clarity. I'm sure there are many factors involved from Betty on through mastering, but this is excellent sound. The performance is very upbeat too. Great to hear! Disc 1 from this date is all I could squeeze in, but summer 2016 will be filled with July 78 I'm sure!
