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.

Good news for early Floyd fans

The six volumes that made up last year's Early Years box set will be released March 24th. Good price too, looks like it will add up to less than what the original box cost. Nice distraction while waiting for GSTL.

Exclusive Content?

In bold print: "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." I'd be happy with some photos of this box, similar to the May 1977 box release of 2013, with the discs and books spread out, and perhaps a listening party, or another video from Dave with in the month of March. However, there is the roll out of Dave's Picks 22 due May 1, and that project eats into this Get Shown the Light project, somehow. I'd like to see yet another T-shirt commemorating 5/8/77. Also a high-quality reproduction of the original poster of this show.

RE: RSD

Said to be on the list sent out to stores: Grateful Dead: P.N.E. Garden Auditorium, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7/29/66 (2LP) Limited to 4000 P.N.E. Garden Auditorium, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 7/29/66 marks Grateful Dead's debut performance outside of the United States. Their complete July 29, 1966 performance is being released in a limited edition, 2-LP, 180 gram vinyl-set, with four bonus tracks from the ensuing 7/30 performance at the same venue. Original cover art by Canadian poster artist, Bob Masse. The iconic 60's poster artist has designed original works for artists such as Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, David Bowie, Fleetwood Mac, Steve Miller Band, No Doubt, Fiona Apple & Smashing Pumpkins to name a few. The show was mastered from the original audio recordings by GRAMMY winning sound engineer Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering in Petaluma, CA. This audio was first made available in January, 2016 as the bonus disc in the 2-CD The Grateful Dead (50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) as it features most of the tracks that would make their way on to the first official Grateful Dead album. It was previously unreleased before this year and is only available as a stand-alone show in this limited edition vinyl set.

Garcia Live 8 11/23/91

Tracking says mine will arrive tomorrow. I haven't been this excited for a new release since Boxilla! It's particularly exciting to see shows released where I was in attendance and this one is about as cool as it gets. Shows, or parts of shows officially released which I attended... 7/18/89 Alpine Valley - Meet Up at the Movies (hope to see a CD/DVD release of this someday) 4/1-3/90 Omni - Spring '90 boxes 7/22/90 Tinley Park - Hey Pocky Way on "All The Years Combine" bonus DVD (all three shows are good and release-worthy) 6/19-20/91 Pine Knob - Download Series Vol. 11 6/22/91 Soldier Field - Shakedown Street on "All The Years Combine" bonus DVD (full show is release-worthy) 11/23/91 Bradley Center - Garcia Live Vol. 8 3/22/92 Copps Coliseum - 30 Trips box 7/31/94 Palace - Way To Go Home on "So Many Roads" 7/8/95 Soldier Field - Visions of Johanna on "Garcia plays Dylan" 7/9/95 Soldier Field - So Many Roads on "So Many Roads" and Box of Rain on "Searching For The Sound" Bonus CD and 7" vinyl from 30 Trips box Not bad considering I only saw the Grateful Dead 46 times and JGB twice between '84 and '95.

flying..

greetings from 30,000 feet in the air (on a flight headed to LA this week). Brought along a ton of shows in my phone, but unlike driving, where i want something sorta mellow and jazzy as i get in a groove, i find when i fly i prefer shorter bursts of high energy shows. Driving: 71-74 Flying: 77-91 Currently listening to Dave's 8 as we fly somewhere over arizona (i think). hope everyone is well!

Get Shown The Light

I would guess I've listened to Scarlet Begonias at least 500 times. Today was the first day I heard the lyrics "get shown the light" in it. And then the light bulb went on over my head. I really like DaP 7, aka Back to Normal with the Grateful Dead. It was my first Dave's Picks, purchased off Ebay in 2014. Cassidy, The Music Never Stopped, Scarlet Begonias => Fire On The Mountain, and Terrapin Station are rock solid gems for me (except for the brief ruckus during Scarlet / Fire when the fan jumped up onstage to yank the guitar out of Weir's hands as he played slide; you can almost make out the words, "listen to what you're doing to Jerry's solo!").

FTW videos

The FTW Box and the live stream recordings are not identical. I haven't done a side-by-side comparison, that would take a lot of time (but if I did it while riding on Jim's lawnmower it might not take any time at all....), but I'm going to guesstimate that they are around 85-90% identical. There were additional cameras around the stadium that were only included on the Box. If you live streamed the shows then being able to watch the same stream again helps bring back some of those night's memories.I live streamed the 27th (so glad I did), did not stream the 28th, and attended 3,4,5. The extra cameras at Chicago got a lot of great crowd shots, so if you were there I recommend the Box because it really reflects the great vibe of the crowd. There are also some pre-show videos from outside the stadium as well as short segments of the band coming and going from the stage. Other differences: The Box comes in 1080p bluray with 5.1 sound, the online stream recordings come in 720p with stereo sound. But note: the bluray 5.1 sound wasn't decoded well on my Samsung bluray player, but sounds amazing on my Onkyo bluray player. So if you have a Samsung, don't blame the bluray (that was my motivation to buy a new player). Also, the Box comes with the CD's, CD's of Circles around the sun, and a bluray of all the videos that were played during intermission.

Blind Melon...

their 3 is a magic number was AWESOME...they're still kinda current. Travis Warren sings really well for him... but I sure miss Shannon. I was at their final show. :-(

THREE

Four....

I did four microdots once and lived to tell the tale. Didn't repeat it though, impressive as it was. Pink ones, as I recall.

Sixtus Picks Vol VII

That 06-06-70 Jam into Goodnight followed by Darkness Jam should be a great start for Sixtus Pick's Vol VII. Glad it calmed down here after all the excitement of the additional release. Too much good jams for that shitdrp out

re: drpryan

Hey Man, not only are you tuned in, we are on the same frequency. I DID in fact drop this into the next Sixtus' Pick, but I am now up to Volume XI!!! I will say I did churn out two add'l "picks" this weekend (aka mashed onto CDs for my car drives), Volumes X and XI....this awesome jam is on there, as are a few Dark Stars (inclusive of the full 2/18/71, which actually prompted this old-timey weekend dive). Happy to share any 'in-between' picks if anyone is listening/interested. Thanks for the shout out, man. Sixtus

Must have had grey matter

Must have had grey matter dripping out from your ears. Regards. Ned.

Hello all...

I've been MIA for a little while. I left my job with the law firm I'd been with for 15 years to start my own practice, and I've been a bit busy as a result. But man... What a multitude of awesomeness has been laid at our feet in the past few months!! DaP 21 is awesome, and although I've never heard the Felt Forum shows, based upon what other are saying DaP 22 and the bonus disc should be amazing as well. Now this box set?!!? I'm really speechless. I've been anticipating this for a while, but wasn't certain that it would happen. These are 4 fine shows. I'm just soaking it all in. Personally, I'll take whatever they throw at us, but we really have NOTHING to complaint about so far in 2017.

simonrob

Glad you made it through....

Magic mower

Senator, I think Jim may not remember the 3 Is The Number discussion because he fell off the mower and hit his head while searching for the hostage Betty's.His rehabilitation involves : Once every weekend, Rx .... Daily Darks Stars, interspersed with Other Ones, greasy Lovelights, and Mind Left Body Jams. Regular bike rides, IPA's, and fine red wines. He's making excellent progress and is expected to make a full recovery after attending Lock'n this summer.

Its Tough Keeping It All Together

After a while it all rolls into one.

The Daily Dark Star!!....

....I admit, with all this GSTL box talk, that totally fell off my radar. Playing 5.11.77 St. Paul currently. Need to get back on that Dark Star train again soon....just checked ebay. This seller johnkay62 sold two boxes already for $325.00 each. Good news is that he has 1 LEFT!!! That does grind my gears a little....

Order pending?

Anyone else get this after preordering? Says "order pending" in order status. Just want to make sure my order was complete , and there's not a problem. Thanks

I never liked team sports

its the peer pressure. I've been on an Other One roll lately.. Knocked out the second sets of 5/3/72, 5/10/72 and 5/26/72 over the last couple days. I needed a little balance. It was fun while it lasted.. but I got off the Dark Star a day challenge. Sing Me Back Home and Two Souls in Communion were two unexpected high points of my adventures. You don't hear those songs enough and when they're done right.. well, sometimes it just works. I have always liked 5/3 Paris.. since my early days, but I don't play it often. Mainly because that second set requires a lot of listening energy. You need to absorb the whole thing or it doesn't really work, so plan on at least 90 minutes of uninterrupted bliss.. When I get time like that in one block, I like to go for it. Then.. while I was hitting some E72 Other Ones, I just drifted down the dial.

Good job, Jim

You're progressing well in your rehabilitation therapy.

Yes

They let me out an hour each day in the courtyard. The twitching has almost nearly subsided. So long as I stay away from the All the Music Edition thread, its possible I might make a complete recovery. Its a long shot, but there is hope. My keyboardist-Turrets is proving a but more difficult to treat, however. Baby steps...

Re; darkstar73....

....did you get a confirmation number? If so, you're Golden (Hall), if not. Well, may the light shine brightly....

Yes I got a conformation # so

Yes I got a conformation # so I'm good thanks brother have all these shows anyhow but nice to see them putting out there anyhow peace

Dark Star a day....

Back when the call went out for a Dark Star a day, I dusted off disc 3 Road Trips 3.3 Fillmore East 5-15-70. It'd been a good while. Holy Guacamole! What a glorious, out there, raucous sequence that is - Dark Star > Stephen > Not Fade Away > Lovelight!! And then a Cold Jordan encore??!! Stoned me just like jelly roll. I keep going back to it these last few weeks. Listened yet again this afternoon and was grinning ear to ear. i love it, love it, love it. Maybe everybody's been there done that 5-15-70 thing lately - hard to keep up with all the posting. I know KeithFan mentioned it somewhere in there. But if it's been some time since you dialed that one in, don't hesitate. Make your duck a grateful duck.

Re: FE 05/15/70

05/15/1970 is an American treasure. Great sound for the period, perhaps my favorite Bob Mathews recording. Right on man..

Wier'd things are afoot at the CircleK....

....on the other Get Shown The Light Board, I posted Jerry's banter of the kids to stop fighting, but I was unable to recall the show I heard that from. Yet, on this board, bluecrow brought up the 5.15.70 show, albeit on a different point (Dark Star, et al), which incidentally includes that Garcia comment that I was searching for. dantian's ghost brought that to light on the Other Board. Coincidence!? I think not....it's events like this that keep me up at night. Like I said on (both) boards, I have issues, but we all get along....and, to top it all off, bluecrow ends with a duck comment. Daffy Duck anyone? I need to get some sleep. Good luck with that....

Get Shown The Light - All Music Edition

I was the 1st one to comment on that thread. I sort of feeling like St. Stephen right now.3/2/69: Dark Star> St Stephen> The Eleven> Lovelight. Disc 8 of Fillmore West 1969: The Complete Recordings. 7964 Is it early may yet?

Dark Star Today

Dark Star Today [the talk show] Today's Installment: March 24, 1970 - Pirate's World https://archive.org/details/gd70-03-24.sbd.miller.32054.sbeok.flacf/gd7… Again, i came across this one over the past weekend as I was delving deeply into 1970. The first thing that caught my attention was simply the venue name. Pirate's World??? REALLY?? I suddenly had this mental picture of Jerry swashbuckling with a knife in his teeth and a peg leg and hook hand. Then i took a listen, and it's a pretty darn good, peg-legs and hook-hands and all. Nice and raunchy, and even a little feeling groovy in there. Oh, and for the curious/easily entertained (all of Us?), here's this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirates_World Ahh, Disney, you usurper of others' dreams. Sixtus

back on the bandwagon

Will jump on the DSOTD. I've been totally absorbing DaP21 and that's quickly rising to my top 10 DaP release. Can't listen to 1973 Dead without visiting other shows, so have the 1973 30 Trips trip in constant rotation in the car. I also got some of the recent DiP RGM rereleases so I finally get to hear Day on the Green that everyone's been raving about for years, which led me to revisit other 1976 releases. The NYE Cow Palace show was another recent acquisition, so giving that show the love it deserves. Prior to this announcement, started listening to the live releases chronologically, got up to DP22. Post announcement requeueing spring of 77, starting with the 1977 30 Trips trip. So much Dead, so little time...

Re: SwooshBuckler

Ah, Sixtus.. you are on a 70 deep dive. I have the Miller of the Pirate World show.. a shortie but a sweetie. Great, abbreviated show. I can only imagine that some of the deadheads stayed on and worked a couple of weeks as pirates while some of the pirates jumped ship and joined the dayglow, travelling pirate circus. Wouldn't require too much a wardrobe change now, would it? And what's the difference between a Pirates Jig (swoosh buckling) and twirling to a hot Dark Star (swoosh dancing)? ..I don't think its much a stretch to say the world was never quite the same again, but in a good way.

@JeffSmith re.1977

I wholeheartedly concur re. the May 77 box set. Although my first show was 4 years earlier and concert attendance sporadic prior to Spring 77, circumstance allowed me to go on tour that Spring, just me and my 69 Chevy Bel Air. I caught maybe 10 or so that tour and there was indeed magic in the air. I have worn out the 77 box and can not wait for HQ New Haven, Boston, Ithaca and Buffalo to replace my old boots. Funny thing is thinking back, New Haven reminded me of a warm up show preparing us for the trifecta to follow on 5/7-9. Counting the days til release and clocking in overtime to feed my Jerry jones....

Pirates World?

Wow, Sixtus!I was there! NOT at the GD show, but I was 13 at the time, and my aunt & uncle lived in Hollywood, FL., and they invited the family down, from eastern PA., for the Christmas/New Year's holidays of 1969/70. I remember being at Pirates World, my scant memories of the place were somewhat dirty. My older brother and my parents say the same thing, the place was just not for us. But it just so happens that we were reminiscing this 1st adventure to southern Florida this past Christmas and the afternoon at Pirates World came up. We revisited Hollywood Fl. and Disney World again in 1972/73 and Pirates World was not open that warm and sunny late December day. As for this Dead show, I used to read Deadbase VIII & X, I still have my hardback copy of X, and used to ponder this Pirates World show, as I missed it by about 3 months. In reality, the Grateful Dead didn't come into my life until early 1971 when the Truckin' single got AM radio airplay and I bought the 45 r.p.m. single, the 1st of two copies. For those who want to have a copy of this 3/24/70 show: bt.etree.org/details.php?id=588015

To have LIVED the May '77 Boxes!!!

Man!, if only I'd had it together for the May '77 run! Extremely cool rgergelis – AND you remember it too. . . . . . I did have a '62 Bel Air in the late '60s. It could drive itself which was a nice feature.

Dark Star of the Day

If you haven't done '69 for a while, the licks in this 2/22 Dark Star are decadent. The raging O1 chaser ain't bad either.Will cleanse the palette with a pair of Colemans, Hawkins and Ornette, before repairing to the second disc. Just a matter of hours 'til Fillmore West.

???

Anyone else getting a warning page from Microsoft when going to deadnet today? When I go to the dead.net home page from my computer it diverts to a warning that "Content on this website has been reported as unsafe" and recommending not to continue to the site. Not happening on any other sites or when I go to dead.net from my phone.

Charlie3

Yup. It's happened repeatedly to me. The download that came with the pre-order was also corrupt and set off all my computer's alarms.All started last Thursday. ....I'm still waiting for shipping notification for my camera I apparently bought from Hong Kong on Thursday as well. To TPTB. You guys need IT help really bad.

Re: Tech Support

I have it popping up on my Edge and Internet Explorer browsers. It appears someone reported it as having unsafe content. I do recall someone got one of those pop ups that's says you have a virus, call this 800 number.. but I question if it came from this site, my guess is they already had a Trojan. Still.. it would do these guys a world of good to figure out a way to keep a few of the nefarious, clearly spammers off this site somehow. I sent a PM to MaryE. I bet its a real pain in the arse to get off Microsofts list of bad sites... You know.. it could have been set off by all those links the spammers were posting to the site. I fear somehow V. Putin is behind it all. We can only assume he is pissed off after trying to hard to get the lost Betty's only to be denied. I bet he was responsible for Bolo's abduction too. That would explain the extra belly button alright.

I'm not an IT expert, but I play one on the internet

Been a lot of spammers around here lately. Maybe the presence of their spam links on this site sets off the alarms.But honestly, you really had to expect that there would be retaliation for the rescuing of the Betty's by Zuckfun and his band of Spicy Merry Pranksters. In fact, it seems highly likely that the website crash on Thursday was intentional, and not directly caused by the unbridled enthusiasm of Deadhead masses. Jim, don't put the tarp on the mower, there could be new missions. Don't forget to pack your vitamins....

Jim, we're on the same wavelength

It's not a coincidence....

Spicy merry pranksters

Ha! I can only imagine that this crew included the infamous Darkstar Spice and Little Red Spicester....

Right on ICKid

I heard it from someone that a poisoned bottle of Sriracha, likely originating from Easters Ukraine, randomly appeared at a popular hot sauce bar in Chitown. We can only assume it was meant for Zuckfun and his band of misfits. We do not yet know how many agents were compromised and/or poisoned. Its a sad day in America when you cant even enjoy a little sauce after a hard days work or perhaps celebrating a mission well done.. It sure does sound like Putin's work. My how he wanted those Betty Boards for himself.

Jim, you're on to something

The release date for the Box is Cinco de Mayo.Could it be a hot sauce sign?

Exactly

Not a coincidence.

I'm eating sushi on 5/5

Might need to set up tiger traps by my mailbox to prevent those vodka commandos from absconding with my Box.

Cinco de Mayo

Thanks Kid for making that connection! I assumed the release date was to celebrate to 40th anniversary of the first show of the box, but now I've been shown the light. As a side bar, this is my first dead release that I ordered with "expedited shipping" because I would really love to give this box a first listen on the anniversary of each show. The 6th of May will really suck...

Dusty, keep your eyes out

'Expedited' could have nefarious connotations.... As delivery day approaches beware of postal carrier looking types named Newman, that's the name they use during missions to recover the rescued hostage-Betty's. All they need is to recover 1 Box and they can clone it........................ (That's a lot of dots because it's a serious situation)

Expedited Shipping

I hear those are personally delivered by bicycle by none other than MaryE herself.

Expedited shipping

That's exactly why I chose it! I trust MaryE on a bike cross country to reach me faster than mail innovations. I'd like to see a counter argument.

Kid

The box has already been cloned (with some minor mutations). Pleas see "All Music Edition" thread.

Dusty

Appears to be an inside job........................................................................ (Now it's really getting serious)

Jim, heads up

Where's the Senator?Did they get him?

Re: Bike Courier

..of course said bike courier has rainbow streamers pouring out of the handlebars in a colliape fashion... There's still time to Intercept on the Magical Mower, gang. Maybe the super secret special hot sauce aforementioned could be a condiment additive of importance. Sixtus P.S. BCEyed, can't believe you actually attended Pirate's World. I have a vision in my head...and man, you were there. It was a fleeting moment in pirate history! And good to know, jimmy, you've had the audio pirate experience previously as well. Swashbuckling good stuff. And i woulda stayed on, been a deckhand, toted a line, reefed a jib, plunged a bilge, you name it. I mighta even had an eye patch. Arrrrrrrrgh. P.P.S. ICKid... You've dropped so many references in your ramblings all I can do is fist pump in the air

Jim

I think it's time to fuel up the mower with pure,oily Carolina Reaper juice.:)

Mission abort

I have been compromised and will return to lurking mode. I must now focus on my secondary mission... a 74 minute disc (produced with "the full Norman treatment") of Donna's wails in inappropriate places. To be released by Rhino shortly, in both "Limited Edition" and "Oh God, Why did I buy this???" Edition. The scalpers are favoring the "Oh God Why" edition to reasons unknown by the free market.

God speed Dusty

Jim, strap on a few extra canisters of juice, it could be a long trip.... (only 4? You might need 5). Bring some IPAs too, you might get thirsty.

Please count me as present....

....Carolina Reaper fuel? Good God man! Are you mad?! I have had the unfortunate opportunity to taste what I call the devil's shrunken balls, and I will not revisit. Once is enough for a few lifetimes. On a separate note, NASA announced today they have found seven rocky planets orbiting a dwarf star a mere 39 light years away. That perked my interest today for sure. Three in the goldilocks zone. Sci-Fi is not so Sci-Fi these days it seems. Tell me Jim, if Reaper juice empowers that mower with warp drive, we need to pack up 30 Trips for sure....(and a few IPA's please), and some hippie lettuce....and some chili (w/ beans)....
