Grateful Dead

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.

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.

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.

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.

Just heard zappa

You cant do that onstage anymore vol 2, disc 1

Some of the BEST non-GD I have ever heard

Essential.

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.

5 8 77 disc 3

Ja, gerne

It's out for delivery, will be here today.

Triple gate album looks nice,,, I like the cover.

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.
