    I Listened and I Heard Music in a Word

    Holy guacamole. Why did I not get this when it first came out? Kind of late to the party here, but sheesh, the Who's Next/Life House box is pretty darned incredibly awesome.

    Maybe I hesitated because, like everybody else who was alive in 1971, I've heard Who's Next about 789 billion times and figured maybe I didn't need yet another copy. Truth be told, the current remix doesn't add much.

    BUT the demos and outtakes are outstanding (for once). Early versions of Teenage Wasteland and some others from Who's Next are like entirely different songs. But still good! And in good sound.

    And then Life House. Some of the songs intended for the ill fated "opera" are better than songs that eventually made it to Who's Next. Which is saying something, because that album is pretty solid start to finish. Plus you get some singles from that period (The Seeker, Join Together) that I loved at the time. Plus two complete gigs. From a period where the Who were just ripping it up on state night after night. Plus not one but two coffee table books.

    This is what's commonly called some really good shit.

    Displaying the 30 Trips Scroll

    Hi all. I know this isn't the correct forum topic for this - but when I searched, I found that no one had posted in the "30 Trips Box Set and Digital" thread since 2017. Not sure if it's good form here at dead dot net to necro a thread, so...

    I'm wondering if anyone has framed or found a more economical way to display the scroll from the 30 Trips box set? Asking bc I just picked up a second such scroll for the specific purpose of doing this. I want to show it to the data science and graphic visualization students at the high school where I work. But I didn't realize how LONG this thing is! Looks like I'd have to order a custom frame.

    I know I could just reproduce it on the large-format color printer that we have... but I sorta want to show off the genuine article, not just for the edification of the students, but also for my own satisfaction! However, at first blush it's not going to be much cheaper to place it between two custom-cut pieces of acrylic (my first "low cost" idea) as it would be to bite the bullet and order a custom frame. So did anyone else go down this road/have any suggestions? Thank you all in advance, and sorry to hijack the thread.

    More on target: I am listening to "Pig's Boogie" from the 12/31/75 JGB show as I type this.

    Wonder if the arch breach is why I couldn’t get anything to play yesterday afternoon? Was on relisten not arch, but I thought shows were sourced from arch? I don’t have an account on arch so hopefully no worries there…

    Why would anyone want to mess with the archive? Idiots!

    Don't know if we'll ever see it released as a box. it will be expected to come with video? which I hear they don't want to release video. What's out already on vid is enough.

    Spectrum 89 would be nice box!

Hey All, Been milling around in the Red Clay and Straight Life recordings. These are Freddie Hubbard's Masterpieces. The musician line up on these sessions are excellent. Highly recmmended and a fine way to take a break from the Dead...

12/6/73. Kind of a meandering one, that doesn't necessarily get to the point until the 37-minute mark. I think it's good to not have much of an agenda sometimes. Eyes of the world kicks in and is smokin' good. Killer Here Comes Sunshine. Why do so many great shows come out of Cleveland?
