    To anyone who got a copy....

    In the theater marque on the cover, there is a photo of someone,,,, anyone know who?

    I thought maybe Bill Graham, but I have no idea what he looks like.

    9/21/72 - Dicks 36

    Brushed over a bit in my last post, this is a great show. Many things stand out - one of the things I like about Fall 1972 is the way they would start jamming early on in the show. The second song is a 13min 39 second version of Bird Song. A run through El Paso then they go into China Cat-Rider. Quite a way to kick things off.
    The highlight though, is the second set, Truckin' to Morning Dew. After which they play Beat It On Down The Line. Of course. Actually a red hot take, but the show seems to end in a way after Dew - the remaining 8 songs sound a bit like add ons to me.

    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

    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.

    2-11-69 vinyl

    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.

https://youtu.be/zPuyT6EtRQ0 interesting interview with Zimmy on his website last week, the most he's opened up in decades.... http://bobdylan.com/news/qa-with-bill-flanagan/ He is on an old blue eyes kick, has a new 3 CD set coming out this week of Sinatra, he's no Enrico Caruso but when he interprets Frank, at least he tries to do those immortal tunes justice.
