    2/11/69- 9/21/72

    I didn't get the 2015 version of this album, so this is doubly attractive to me. Value for money is very subjective. I would rather buy a single cd from 1968, for example, than a 4 cd set from 1988- even if they were the same price.

    Another case in point - I have been listening to Dicks Picks 36 on vinyl today - 9/21/72. I have no idea what I paid for it, but I am sure if I told one of my friends round here, they would think I was nuts (not that they don't already). But to me - whatever I paid - it was worth it.

    Steppin' Out With The GD - England '72

    Wanted a Cold Rain & Snow to start the day and found this on first blind random pull from the cassette collection. No clue what show as I didn't take notes from the CDs it is from and not bothering to look it up today. Fills up three 90 minute tapes.
    Cheers
    Having some fresh zucchini bread with my coffee. As the old line goes, lock your car doors, it's zucchini season. Someone might lay one on you when you're not looking.

    Amsterdam '72. 2/11/69. And Dave's 38

    I love that 5/10/72 show @Uncle_Tripel. I know Rotterdam tends to soak up the attention but whenever my hands hovers over the two it typically picks the former for my listening pleasure. Maybe it's the quality of the recording itself.

    2/11/69 - I'll get running-off-at-the-mouth-disease and start spouting superlatives if given the chance. But for anyone who reads the liner notes (assuming Gary Lambert's work from the CD is brought across to the LPs), might I respectfully suggest you take a gander at Bill Graham's autobiography. The passages on how he got into the Fillmore East, and the memories from the guys who built it out for him, are worth the price of the book itself - which is not to say the rest of the tome isn't worth your time.

    Dave's 38. It's 9/7 today and I find I tend to listen to that material more than to that of the main release. But what a surfeit of riches. God Bless the Grateful Dead.

    Happy Saturday, folks.

    Seems way overpriced for just 3 LP’s.
    The description says it’s “Audiophile”, but no description is provided as to what makes it more Audiophile than the vinyl version released in 2015.

    Let us know how it sounds once someone listens to it.

    Dennis - thanks for mentioning this release. I've just ordered a copy from Experience Vinyl too, as it doesn't seem to have been released in Britain. Should help keep the evil spirits at bay as the nights draw in.

Just received my Dave's Picks Vol. 21!What a great show/recording!1973-That was the year of my very first Dead show in Buffalo,New York!For fellow New York State'ers,some may remember that was the year of Governor Nelson Rockefeller's new get tough anti drug laws going into effect...of which "Don't get caught holding the bag!''was the slogan on all the commercials!Anyway,me and a buddy hitchhiked from Niagara Falls to Buffalo's War Memorial Auditorium to see the Dead when, walking through the parking lot we were searched and busted with weed!The cops took our weed and then let us go with a warning-that almost blew the evening for us but fortunately the Dead and the wall of sound made us forget about the cops by the second song!(at least I think it was a wall of sound show-I know I saw it!)It was billed as two two hour sets-which it was probably more!Vol 21 is pretty much the same set list as that October show as I remember it.(without checking).Great memories of a life changing time in my life-I was 16 years old then and I turn 60 in April!I probably have heard some Dead or JGB almost every day since then!
