    WHAT DEAD HEADS HAVE BEEN SAYING ABOUT...

    NEW HAVEN 5/5/77
    "Here is a prime example of the saying ‘the whole is greater than the sum of the parts’ … It’s called synergy and the Dead wrote the book on it.”

    BOSTON 5/7/77
    “The music they laid down brought me places I had not been before.”

    CORNELL 5/8/77
    “...the single best rock performance anywhere, anytime, by anyone.”

    “There was just some kind of magical connection this night between the band members and the band and the audience - some texture, or some type of cosmic or celestial force is in the room.”

    "This show is, was, and always will be Mecca.”

    BUFFALO 5/9/77
    "...an awesome display of the Dead’s captivating power"

    If you've been following this site for quite some time, then you will know we are often flush with hyperbole when it comes to our releases. We can't help it, really - for we, like you, are Grateful Dead fans above all else. Just like you, we've spent countless hours debating the merits of show over show, year over year. We've kept a watchful eye on your wish-lists and carefully considered how to make - excuse the cliché - your dreams come true. And once we've made our commitments, we are steadfast in our determination to conjure up those dreams fully-formed and nearly perfect. Sometimes these heights cannot be reached without physical and cosmic elements aligning, and that, dear friends, is why it has taken so long for us to bring you THE ONE and the epic shows that surrounded it. No need for even the slightest embellishment here, 5/8/77 Barton Hall, Cornell University: Ithaca, NY, has for decades, been THE resounding favorite; you've said it yourselves - the "holy grail" of Grateful Dead shows. Thanks to the passion and perseverance of Dead Heads like you, we are beyond pleased to finally be able to present this show and its brethren, the fabled four of Spring '77, in sonically pristine condition.

    Limited to 15,000 individually numbered copies, MAY 1977: GET SHOWN THE LIGHT is a collection of what is unanimously believed to be the most sought-after previously unreleased complete shows the Grateful Dead ever played. Collected, traded, and debated for decades, "the beloved Golden Trinity" of Boston, Ithaca, and Buffalo, along with their New Haven prelude, have inspired fans to "get on the bus," converted critics, and even garnered national attention (Cornell was added to the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry). But until now, you've never really heard them quite like this!

    The Dead is in the details... how serendipitous is it that the notorious Betty Boards were returned to the archive just in time for the 40th anniversaries of these shows? Lovingly sourced from these well-reputed recordings, we invite you to experience four utopian shows just like they happened, to "be inside the music" as engineer Betty Cantor-Jackson intended. Whether you listen to each night on its own or imbibe the whole lot at once, we suspect you'll hear why every note mattered. Much like we were, you will be hard-pressed to determine which of these fine documents - will it be the understated but nuanced New Haven, Boston's festive fantasy vibes, the monumental catharsis of Ithaca, or Buffalo’s dreamy exuberance - is truly "the best." Does it really matter? We think not.

    Due May 5th, we anticipate that this revelatory boxed set 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.

    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.

    Are currently on tour and why i was thinking about them.I've lobbied them enough over the years they now recognize me at the shows and i don't want to be a band stalker, so i now wait to let them talk to me if they want. very cool people and being smokers they have to use the same smoking area as the fans, so they are used to requests for signatures and having to chat with the fans. Starless box is also cool, Road to Red i like slightly better when they were working out the jam that became Asbury Park on the USA album. Obligatory GD content, this is the best summer SBD i've found searching through summer 1970.

Finally. Seems working now, only because dead.net got Rhino to open up their website. GD-fix your gremlins, already! How many times will you allow this to happen? Classic runs/tours will get big demand and need proper website volume settings. Most of the time this place probably isn't that high traffic, but there's probably never been ANYTHING in human history more word of mouth contagious than big Grateful Dead news, and the website would be run with that obvious truth accordingly. I'm stoked for this and don't wanna keep whining about pricing but...it matters. For something this costly, well over $100, the fact that a few bucks in shipping can't be thrown in is really ridiculous. And the only one of these that was really well priced was the Europe box, which at 450 for 72, 73? discs was a bargain. http://drygoods.phish.com/product/PHCD201/phish-st-louis-93-6cd-box-set… By comparison, this '93 set from Phish is VERY economical. I understand paying more for extras and stuff in a box, but when you're WAY over $10 a disc, you're simply overpriced.

I've been reading all the complaints and about how difficult it is to buy this so naturally I had to try it myself and I got all the way through the process on the first try! Problem is I can't afford the fucking thing so I had to, not without a certain amount of pain, just close the window without completing the transaction. Real easy process though... Well done GDM for making this project a reality after all these years!

Had work most of the day that kept me away from the computer, except for a brief window in the late afternoon, not a bad thing at all unless the Grateful Dead announces the release of a new box set! It was nightmare from 4:00-5:30 EST with many of the troubles people were experiencing earlier. I had a workshop at 5:30 PM that didn't free me up until about 8:45 PM and had no problem going through at that time although Rhino's webpage loaded up this go around. Was able to score this Box Set as well as the 5LP vinyl edition. Rock on!

After almost five hours of pure unfettered f@ckery, I tried linking directly from the announcement email and was sent immediately to the Rhino Store. Wham! Bam! Thank you, Ma'am! It took less than two minutes for the order to go through. Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile and wait for Cinco de Mayo! Whatever unforeseen shit may hit the proverbial fan in 2017, this little box of magic will keep me grinning through it all. Good luck, gang. Hope you nab yours too.

Yeah, I too was tying to order this box set for 4 hours...I tried on my phone and on my tablet. I even called customer service. My shopping cart on my phone had 4 copies of the box set and 2 of Cornell. I guess some of my attempts to add to cart did get through even though I was bounced out. My tablet only had one copy that made it the cart. My calls to customer service included 2 that lasted 17 minutes only to be disconnected. Every call after that was disconnected within 30 seconds. Needless to say I was going bonkers through all of this. Finally I checked my tablet and amazingly my order was bounced to a rhino site, and glorious relief came over me. I had a rough day at work and upon watching DL's seaside chat I was thrilled. That was the first way I was notified. Then Dave finished the chat by mentionibg the limited release of 15,000. That was when the hell started ad I immediately tried to order. Even though I have had these shows on tape, then on download (mp3, and then flac) there was no way I was going to miss getting this box set. If I would have missed it because of this ordering/website debacle I think I would have found my way to the wharehouse where these are being shipped and I would have procured one box set by any means necessary. Glad it didn't have to go down that way.

It finally worked for me. I'm sorry so many have had much longer wait times than I had, I was trying for about 90 minutes. But, the order went through, and I just completed a listening of the Scarlet Fire from Cornell, possibly the 25 minutes of Dead most permanently etched into my synapses, so a great test of the sound quality. My first reaction is that it has less reverb than my old copy, but it has a clearer sound, too. Phil has more bite, and the MuTron on Fire on the Mountain has more bite as well, perhaps due to my old copy being so loud and peaking well into the red. Very satisfied. Except, now I have 2.5 months to wait for the rest to come. The best thing about this box, to me, is perhaps the fact that if you're somebody that thinks Cornell is overrated and that Boston or Buffalo was THE SHOW, you get them all! Now that debate can come on better terms with high quality sound for each show. I'm debating getting Cornell vinyl, and know I'll be getting a stand alone cd copy, because the packaging is that nice. I think the Dead just may have the #1 album the week of May 5th, as Cornell is going to sell tens of thousands of copies.

If TBTB were scooped again and forced to release the announcement early, I heard that Rolling Stone had a article about the box out about an hour before the official announcement. As far as ordering, i was lucky to get a email confirmation...tried firefox first but got the error page before switching to chrome, it was slow but worked. Best of luck to everyone, Just hoping my email confirmation was legit!!

Thank you, dead.net and Warner! I got my order and the MP3 and I've been following along with the Comments. Whoah! The first couple of hours with Warner looked like a Wile E. Coyote moment: portal is painted on a rock. Roadrunner rolls right through but Wile E. tries to keep up and crashes, then gets hit by a train. Ouch.... Burger: Your honor, we've heard the testimony of this witness that the first part of this tape has been edited or tampered with. Mason: All this working on the tape, this cutting and splicing, must have been important. Witness: I should think you'd be grateful! Burger: Well, we're not grateful, mister! I should like this tape entered in evidence and marked for the people exhibit D. Let's listen to it again, shall we? Lieutenant, turn it up with the volume high!

JRF: Thanks for the Heads up, I'm watching the CC statement closely; so far it just reflects the pending box charge.

I don't mean to repeatedly yell "FIRE!" in this here crowded theater,but something ain't right. Check yer $ people. I apparently bought a camera from Hong Kong today on a PayPal account I haven't even used or updated in over a year. Good luck out there....
