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.

RTR Vs. E72 Steamer

Pretty much the same, except there are 2 bonus tracks from 5/24 on RTR (Lovelight & Stranger). And yet the steamer is stretched out to 4 discs. Some of the tracks start and end in different spots - Wharf Rat for example. One Man pointed out that discs 3 & 4 of the steamer are identical mixes, while discs 1 & 2 are slightly different. I can confirm that Sugar Magnolia is an identical mix, having compared the two on headphones (afterall, it's THE version of THE song that got me on the bus). Agree with Wharf Rat evaluation on RTR. This was my first ever Grateful Dead CD. It's no accident this show was chosen above the rest for commercial release. The Lovelight from 5/24 is Pigpen's last, and in my opinion best, as far as the non-jam arrangements in the song. They jammed so much and so differently on it over the years, you can't really compare them. It's also the only of the 3 E72 versions to include the doot-doot-doo section, which is the best part of the song (not sure how that gets left out). The jam is great here, they sound like the Allman Brothers - very Jessica-like. Hundred Year Hall is missing a ton of good tracks. I would advise picking up the Steamer version, which also features a better mix to my ears, at least when I put Bertha side by side on headphones. Bobby and Keith sounded louder, but not at anyone else's expense. Overall 4/24 & 4/26 are two of the best sounding shows in the box, probably as One Man confirmed with JN, they were not as rushed as the rest of the set, having already undergone a lengthy mastering process for their previous commercial release.

Excellent

Thanks everyone for the Rider recommendations, I am checking them out now. I actually already had 4/16/72 Good Lovin' on, so that was the first one I'm checking out.

RtR/HYH vs. E72 Content

Rockin the Rheine has bonus content from the 5/24/72 Lyceum show, while Hundred Year Hall is missing several songs and the order is rearranged. Can't speak to any difference in sound as I don't have those shows from E72. Been picking up a couple shows at a time from E72, but since I already have Rockin the Rheine and Hundred Year Hall, the E72 versions of those shows are at the bottom of the list for future acquisition.

That melody in Part 2 is exactly the moment that might make it my favorite Dark Star (top three for sure). You just made me pop it in.Sinister is a perfect description of that Me and My Uncle, menaced by the dark galaxy wherein it resides. Love that final chord, all hands unleashing and Pigpen's organ shimmering on top of it all and disappearing into Phil's punctuation and Keith's swirling notes as the ship launches back into space. One of the rare Wharf Rats with vocals as sweet as Skull & Roses, and Jerry may go one better with that last, heartfelt "true to me".... Can't advise if Rockin the Rhein is much different-sounding then the steamer, I haven't done a side by side. But it always seems especially rich in the context of that chocolate-wood packaging. spam, How lucky to have seen that Cobo Doors show. I've only heard bits, but I think it's one of the better-regarded of those Bright Midnight releases. lowspark, thanks for the Meadows tip, this weekend is out, but maybe, just maybe, next Sunday.... Snowboard has been under my bed for about four years. Shameful.

Do I need to point out that you brought the Kardashians here... a place which has nothing to do with them... thereby perpetuating what you wish to see stifled? Was thinking about what Dead show to play this morning, now all I can think about is dat a$#. (~);}

Kardashians - just for a laugh

Was at a neighborhood bunko party last night, yes a deadhead who goes to couples bunko parties, but I did eat a bunch of eatables before going! Oh, sometimes a half hit! Need something to get thru parties with conservative Christian republicans! (was that redundant?) Anyway the K-Girls came up, mostly negative comments with racial undertones. All I could think about was what my old man would say, not politically correct at all with his barely 6th grade education. "I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers" or another of this choice comments, "...a ass only a black man could love". Me, I got nothing against the K-girls because they don't affect my life at all. Now Ted Cruz,,, he scares me!

one more saturday morning

RtR DS is awesomestill totally happy over the new box release The Yes Album: an album for the ages I do not at all advocate killing any person, but can we kill the CONCEPT of the Kardashians? Please? I give not one fnk about them, yet I know about them, and they keep popping up in my world: internet, grocery store check out, cnn.com, time.com, etc. They do nothing to better the world. Yet they are everywhere. luckily i can click them away, or turn the page, or focus on putting groceries on the conveyor belt. Hmmph. anyway, have a beautiful weekend, fellow Deadheads.

Bettys tapes for this release...

"5 complete shows, 3 mastered from the never-before-circulated Betty Boards" Does this mean that only 3 of these shows were from Bettys' board tapes? Or that 3 have them haven't circulated but are all from Bettys' tapes?

@VGUY

Nicely done Vince! PS: Bella got to say hi to Jerry at the local restaurant tonight - one picture is the RS one with 4.5 digits wave and the other is the one in front of the Pyramid. She loves her Uncle Jerry. Added Box of Rain from Wichita DaP along with UJB. Soon she'll be ready for a China>Sunflower.

Nope

It's all Betty ya bitter old crank. Your posts are about as pleasant as a morning hangover :-)

pre-hiatus dead

sucks!

no it's post-hiatus

that sucks! no it's??? so which dead era sucks again? I can't keep this shit straight.

Code name Stingray

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not sure if Bolo's latest post is a clue, or just a demonstration of his recently learned Arabian counter-espionage techniques. Maybe he's conducting some sort of covert experiment, perhaps this is even the start of Operation Fried Mozzarella. Anyways, I'm not sure what to make of his clue, or of DL's comment that 19 is something they've never done before. Any pick is a great pick for me, but in looking at the larger picture, it seems we're due for either a very early pick (68-71) or a late one (87-91).

Cheese and Crackers

ahh.. much better. I was reading some of the posts over the last few days and decided I needed some cheese and crackers to go with some of this wine(ing). :D I had to crack up because I just got my "Make America Grateful Again" T-Shirt in the mail Friday, today was its first wear. Serendipitous me thinks... Happy Sunday all.. and we can start by being thankful that I was not in VGuys car on the ride back from the pool. I would have surely ruined their harmonies... The last time I was in Vegas I stayed at Mandalay Bay. It had the most kick ass pool(s) I have ever seen in my life. Another thing to be grateful for.

Mandalay

I'll second that Mandalay pool praise--super nice, complete with wave pool and sandy beach. Way at the far south end of the strip, but pools make it worth it.In I think 2006 my wife and I went to a great, sadly now defunct (de-funked)festival there called "Vegoose," which they did for a few years over Halloween weekend. Phil and Trey played twice, Rhythm Devils (w/ Mike Gordon of Phish), Tom Petty, Widespread Panic, plus a ton of other great acts from other genres--Damian Marley, Fiona Apple, the Mars Volta, the Roots. It was 2 or 3 days of daytime shows at several stages by unlv, then night time shows at various places around the strip later at night. We got back to hotel from Phil and Trey night show at like 5 am. Wish that one still happened--with all the other festivals sprouting up all over and specifically through the summer, would've thought that the location and time of year could have made it a huge thing. Check out the lineups they had: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegoose

Interesting

Looks like both 5/11 and 5/26/72 are available again in the store. I wonder if the (expected) increase in visits to the site this coming week have anything to do with that. Pop in to pick up DaP 19 and while you're at it grab a couple of the most famous shows of that era. Not a bad idea by the folks in charge (or it's late and I'm overthinking it)...anyway, they are available for those on this board who may be looking for them.... Regarding the upcoming release, my gut tells me it's 1970. I've been wrong before (ok every time) but either way should be a fun week ahead-

?

It isn't difficult...-pre-hiatus is older than 1974, -post-hiatus younger than 1974 I love it all, as most of us do, but we also all have favorites. Nothing wrong with cheering for the next pick. I'd rather chat about live GD than I would chat about random non-G.D. b.s. that clutters this board on occasion. By the way, do we typically get two box sets released each year, or is one box set released? I think one box set is released each year...huh?

Re: 80's fan - 5/11/72 and 5/26/72

If any of you don't have these shows by now and are on the fence.. they are really must have's. Both of them. One epic, the other absolutely prime classic. They really are two of the best shows ever played (in my humble opinion). ..and yes, my soft spot is 67 to 74 also... This is good news (I think). I do have to wonder how fast these things are selling.. its been four years now..

Cluttered?

Then set yourself free.....by all means.See ya! :) ...and remember folks.....don't sweat the petty stuff,but do pet the sweaty stuff. :)

In other words....

If ya gotta fart in a crowded room,take it outside man. ;)

Thanks for the positive feedback, folks

Much appreciated. "The eagle has landed," um, "the package has been delivered," yeah, I mean I gave him the CD ;) Now it's up to him to "hear" it. Will he catch the devine "disease?" I don't know, but it would be so cool if he did, and anyway I gave it my best shot. Yes, I am attempting to "indoctrinate" my friend into the brotherhood, out of love you understand, and yes Ripple alone should have sealed the deal, but who knows. China>Rider and many others are planned for a vol 2, if we get that far. We shall see...

Vegoose....

....yeah. Went to the second go around. Perfect weather, perfect music. Sad that yearly festival faded away. And yes, the Mandalay pool is, pardon my French, the shit....

Funny

Ha! Pet the sweaty stuff. That's funny. I have listened to Veneta Playing in the Band 3x in the last 24 hrs. Trying to figure out what makes it better than the 20 or so E72 versions. Is it just the duration? We will see. Keith is definitely very prominent in Veneta, more so than I recall on the Europe shows, but I haven't listened to E72 in ages, so that may just be my memory.

blah, blah blah some more

Pools and Fools

Here in sweet sweaty Florida, pools are damn near must haves. Pool Bars being a close second. And those two lead to foolish escapades of Summer Legend.In the early 1970s there was an apt complex that featured a pool than snaked all through the development and it featured underwater stereo! Of course the music feature didn't last long, but the parties that went on were indeed crazy. Ladies swimwear wasn't as wild back then but young tanned hot bods have been a must since Babylon, and this place was the jewel of the Nile. Such fine memories! Summer Pool Parties were a weekly occurance as I got into the 80s complete with bar b cues and kegs of superb adult refreshment. When I finally put together a mobile DJ business that was our bread and butter, the 4 hour Pool Party. Times were perfect then or so it seems now looking back. I'm still deep in this 78 box and loving it more and more. This morning I'm grooving to 7-3 St. Paul with some fine Java and debating if I really need to wander out in the 10 am heat that's already 89 degrees! If I do, I guess it would be to go to..........you guessed it! The Pool. Hahahahaha.

Negativland!

I've been going thru my collection A-Z checking all labels, filenames, id-tags. Labeling all live shows I have that don't have song titles and ID-ing what songs they are. Came across my folder for Negativland and found it was lacking. A world wide search of libraries found none of their albums. (big surprise there!) Amazon has most, but even used prices are high. Any Negativland fans out there with a large collection (or small) that want to do some horse trading? If you never heard Negativland, odd stuff, a little like The Residents (more or less?) But I'd like to get more in stock. Hit me with PM's if you can help. thanks Dennis

Random Thoughts on Dave's Pick Vol. 7 - Rhythm Devils vs. Drums

I just completed a nice long morning stroll around town, (wearing my "Make America Grateful Again" T-shirt, Jim ;) and I listened to DaP7, start to finish. I chose this one because it got shelved pretty quickly after a couple of listens when it was released, and I have to say that it is still one of the weaker picks, IMO. Set I is solid, especially the Ramble On Rose, Must Have Been the Roses, and Music Never Stopped, but Set II sounds flat to me. For me, the most interesting part is the Rhythm Devils, which get far out there with weird vocal/animal noises... sounds like a cosmic trip through the rain forest. Which leads me to a question: What distinguishes a Rhythm Devils from a Drums? Is it a time period thing? Obviously, you can't have rhythm devils without Mickey, but it seems to have been a late 70s-early 80s thing. Is there anything that sets the two apart? Also, the three song second disc is disappointing, much like the two short discs in the 78 Box from the Red Rocks shows. Give us some filler, Dave! I know there is plenty to go around! Oh, and the slide guitar on Werewolves is horrendous... makes it damn hard to enjoy. Again, just my opinion. Peace

5-11-72 & 5-26-72

Agree with earlier posts. If you don't have either of these two grab them. They are excellent. Despite a lot of the best of 5-26 being on Europe '72, this gives you the entire suite - complete and uninterrupted.

drums is drums.

if you listen closely on 4/14/78, while they are doing the "dancin' in the streets" chant heading into drums, you can hear Jerry say "like the rhythm devils". so maybe it's a time period thing. Spring 78 RD, everything else is Drums. to me, though, drums is drums. it'd be fun for a day to have as pets a black cat and a white cat, one named "Drums" and one named "Space".

having reorganized my CD collection, I am branching out to...

late 80s/early 90s for the first time in a long time. Nightfall of Diamonds sounds reeeeeally good today. first few tracks of 6/16/90 VFTV sounded good earlier this morning. the sound from this time period reminds me of skating on ice. the sound just glides.

ugh. "I will take you home "

one of the reasons i am not that crazy about this time period. Brent's great, but this song is way too personal. I love my daughter and spoil her beyond all comprehension, but i don't tell y'all about it.

Take You Home

Actually, for me- nothing says Saturday night party like I Will Take You Home. That song just pumps me up- every single time. Anyways, totally kidding. Honestly, I appreciate the sentiments of the song, and it's heartfelt nature. But I'm not sure if there was ever a time when I was like, yeah please put that on- I could go for a killer Take You Home right now.

Take You Home

Its not my favorite repeat listen either.. Sure beats the Let Me Sing Your Blues Away I was listening to from Philly 9/21/73.

Just a Little Light

Ok. So as far as Brent's tunes go, curious how you guys feel about this one?I'd say it's my fav of his, especially in the Spring 90 TOO box................

Take You Home

You're totally missing the point of the song which explains alot about the kind of deadhead you are. "Believe it if you need it or leave it if you dare".

Point

No one is missing the point of I Will Take You Home. It's not possible. That is part of the problem.

Palate Cleanse

Love the recent comments about "palate cleansing." Always interesting to see what other people are listening to. Mine: Hawkwind, Stones, Paul Weller, Chris Robinson and the New Earth Mud, Joni Mitchell, John Lennon, Amon Duul, 10K Maniacs, Arild Anderson, Bruce Cockburn, Coltrane, Lee Morgan and Suzanne Vega. And now, back to Dead boards: 10/17/72, Fox Theatre.

My point is...

if that's all you can make of the song that is the problem.

Just A Little Light

Probably my favorite of the Brent composistions.Blow Away comes in second for me. Rock on

Little Light? Blow Away? good songs.

Re IWTYH I can see the psychedelic giddiness: "something big and cold (has got a hold) of you". that's pretty funny if you think about a lysergic state of mind. a big oozy melty creature or something the literal lyrics are just too much for me, and the instrumentation. Remember, I have never sold a single record, so the joke's ultimately on me. enough of that topic. What about Gainesville? It sounds AWESOME right now....Truckin' into Drums...

Just a Little Light

Wish they had played it more. Song had the legs to go far but never got the time to develop. update - just checked seems they only did it about 18 times! Longest one I have is 8.5 minutes.

"something big and cold (has got a hold) of you"

That's about the mean cold world out there today. I'm Out

re: Just a Little Light

Best Brent tune,in my opinion. The rest of his songs seemed better suited for a Light Rock band than a psych band.

IWTYH

The version from 3/25/89 is a standout. Brent's vocal approach feels like a southern gospel/soul influence. When I first started listening to the Dead in the early-mid '80's, Brent's songs didn't immediately catch on with me. By '89-'90, his songs really grew on me. I would be a very ecstatic happy camper if the next Dave's Pick has some nice Brent features.

Gentlemen...

start your engines. :)

Favorite Brent tune?....

....Gentlemen Start Your Engines. Seriously. An awesome song. Was lucky enough to catch one live....

jrf68....

....grate minds think alike....

11/29/80 second set

heard it once or twice on tape. Thought good ok yeah. then I heard it today on disc. Massive amounts of energy. if you wonder why people ask, "What about Gainesville?", give this show a listen. You will understand.

10/11/80 acoustic

sounds really good. I got the disc from my friend's pile of extras. had the second electric set on tape, but...

Brent

I don't mind a Brent song or two in there; admittedly to my ears his voice got better with time - more raspy and able to scat/improv as time went on. He sounds best to me (vocally) in the spring '90 box sets. I had never really given his tunes much thought until they were popping up all over those set lists and I started taking a liking to, for example, Easy to Love You. While potentially cheezy in the title, the song has some good lyrics and a decent bounce. I also like Just a Little Light; Jerry on wah pedal anytime is good by me. Blow Away can be fun also, especially the longer versions. Also his voice lends nicely to backup vocals, again, the rasp. Thanks to the couple of peeps who shouted out over my vacation last weekend; weather was iffy (read: bad) but happily the family time worked out quite well and as far as I'm concerned, rain on Nantucket is still pretty much as good as any weather anywhere else. Oh yeah, and Cisco Brewery is one of the greatest places on Earth. Have an enjoyable safe day and week All. Looking forward to Fenway shows this weekend for sure. Sixtus

Little Light

Just a little light and Blow Away are two of my favorite Brent Tunes... I like take you home too.. its not something I spin a bunch.. but things like that change over time.

gentlemen start

vguy, Which one did you catch? I was at Pittsburgh, and loved that tune. Certainly not a feel-good lyric ("if you don't like trouble, better leave my ass be"), but a dark, swampy groove that Jerry delivered a searing lead on for the strange, open-the-floodgates instrumental break. Brent got his expletives in that night, taking his patented Little Red Rooster verse, too ; ) Id've preferred Gentlemen Start to either We Can Run or I Will Take You Home on the studio album. The latter has really grown on me over the years, at the time I hoped for anything but out of Space. On the Terrapin Limited show (3/15/90), Jerry puts in some nice midi horn flourishes. Sitting up in the rows directly behind Brent for that show, it was hard not to enjoy that one. Wish I'd have caught a Believe It Or Not!

An especially good Monday

Peace.

Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted

Yo! Rockers!!! My spies tell me that the next Dave's WILL be two consecutive shows----May 28 and 29, 1969. With filler from the 5/7/69 show. Yup, they've never done THAT before........... Personally, I think it's just an ugly rumor........... Rock it in the pocket! DOC

Doc quote, often mis-quoted..

That explains a lot.. you hear dead people. That would be a stellar combo, it feels like we are due something vintage.

Brent's Brass Ones

Sing IWTYH in front of 100,000 heads cause I don't give a sh*t what you think about how much I love my daughter. Good for him. I know how he feels!!! I like We Can Run and Tons of Steel. My favorite Brent lead is a cover; Dear Mr. Fantasy. His raspy lead on that song gives me chills every time. I've been known to queue up all of 'em and let them roll one after the other. Some May 69? Whoo Boy. Do it Dave. Doc said so!

I'm callin' ya out, Doc!

"Spies"?? You'll have to do better than that or change your name to DocBolo! I'm sayin' it's 6-10-73 on four discs, an extra bonus to subscribers -- unless it makes DaP20 a two-disc set -- and priced accordingly for ala carte sales. Let's see yer cards, mate..... Oh, and, uh, hope you're doin' well! (Readers: I'm teasing the Doc, he's been berry berry good to me.)
