    Golden era Grateful Dead in the most golden city in the Golden State? Yes, DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 46 features the complete unreleased show from the Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, 9/9/72. Loosen that tie, this ain't a red carpet rodeo - it's the after party that legends are made of. Consistently excellent from start to finish, this West Coast groove showcases tracks that would soon debut on EUROPE '72, solo material from both Jerry and Bob, a riveting iteration of "China>Rider," a couple of Chuck Berry doozies, a bonkers 35-plus "Other One" that hits all the psychedelic highs, and wraps up with a "Casey Jones"/"Sugar Magnolia"/"One More Saturday Night" finale that'll have you wondering why you wore a tie in the first place. Hooray for Hollywood, indeed.
     
    Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, this release was recorded by Owsley Stanley and has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. Oh, and it ships next week so you'll wanna grab a copy while you can.

    Thanks for all the work you do. Tracked down DreamsWeDreamed, will definitely be checking it out. Many years ago I was a member of deadvids dot com. Looked it up it is still running but has moved the site to vimeo, you can still get there by the address given. I received my copy of some lengthy book in pdf. Think I still have, cant remeber the book but was about the early lsd years, cant believe I forgot about them and the book. Fortunately, I fired up a 19 year old computer last week and it still works. Think the book is on that. Will start looking.

    Weird, in the last month my town had a young couple open the first video store since blockbuster closed down. They have 4000 blu rays, dvd, and video tapes. They expect another 3000 soon. It is in an old downtown house, I am guessing the couple that started it live upstairs with the store down stairs. Plan to drop by soon. So I have a couple of things on my to do list.

    #46 arrived the date of official issue, so since I live near IceCream, it makes no sense his was held up. Oh well, post office here still runs somewhat efficiently. Of course, now mostly junk mail and ads. I dont think I have any official mail come to me at the house, except like when debit and credit cards expire.

    or Be Kind, Me Remind - Phish

    Vguy thanks for the Phish update, will have to watch that. Still have Colorado 1988 best of tape. Havent listened to in years. You saw them at Hollywood Bowl, I think. Got lots of reading to catch up on.

    Wanted to update here instead of '73 Box, my mom did pass away peacefully a few weeks back. It was truly a blessing to watch her in her peace. Dad in hospital now - but most certain he will be ok. He had hernia surgery Monday, and then Tuesday developed a hematoma.

    I still have to track down 2 "Death...Mercy" from 1969 and 1970 (?) that were referenced last month, one was 4/6/69 (by Obi-Wan, I think), and the other I think was from Doc 04-26-70.

    Have had one good listen to Dave's #46. Hope to get a better listen this weekend.

    Hope all are well!

    ....but youtoob phish the documentary. Or not. Uploaded two days ago. Focuses on '83-'87 when they were just forming gills. '88 is when they ventured from the comforts of the NE in a box truck to Colorado. By 1992 they were gaining serious traction. They put in the work.
    Revisiting the 9.9.72 TOO. The 7:30 mark is where it gets fun.

    Holy cow! THIS one goes right up the Dave's Picks charts for me! While the first set is sleepy to my ears, the second disc really got my juices flowing yesterday, and now I just finished the HUGE jam with a non-distracted, full-on-listening session. Wow. At some point during Truckin' I'm pretty sure I turned into the skeleton who is being blown back in their chair by the music blasting from the speakers. This suite of music is like the entirety of my 3500-CD classical, jazz, bluegrass, and rock collection all melted into one CD.

    I'll have to save the bonus disc because I don't think I can digest music for another day after that disc 3. I love that when Keith joined the band and started holding down the basic pulse, it allowed Jerry to fly out into space, rather than trying to be the rock in the middle that the others could focus on. Thank you, Donna, for boldly introducing yourself to Jerry that fateful evening.

    Thanks, Dave, thanks, Rhino, and THANK YOU, GRATEFUL DEAD!!

    Be kind, rewind.

    Anniversary show 5/9/87. Laguna Seca Raceway

    36 years ago today I was up at Laguna Seca Raceway, for another great day with the Good ole Grateful Dead. The Dead kicked off the show with Sugar Magnolia. Bill Kreutzmann dedicated He's Gone, to the memory of Paul Butterfield. Fun show, cool venue. They filmed the Touch of Grey video that night.

    Congrats on the big win. The GKs didn't even lose their stride, so to speak, by losing their goalie.

    Just curious is anyone listened to D&C at Cornell last night. I caught the first few notes of Mingleweir on my drive home. Seems to me like they played a "greatest hits" show of sorts. Would be interested in any comments.

If you haven’t already contacted the Mounties to file a missing persons report on Matthews, Marner and Tavares, please do so.

Oro - You are absolutely right about the Anchor Bar and Duffs. I was in Buffalo a few months ago and had some wings at Gabriel’s Gate. Not bad.

Jack/Oro/Mr Ones - I feel a little like Max Smart now, with the old “Listen, about that Leaf Stanley Cup win…”. Florida beat them every which way, and some. Jack is right - the big guns disappeared. Leaf lament: Maybe next year.
VGuy - Looking really good for the VGK to make it to the final. They are doing a great job containing Edmonton’s dynamic duo.
The upside of having your team lose out is now just being able to enjoy watching the games for the joy of watching the sport. No favourites, no skin in the game.

The Warning is a three piece sister band from Mexico. Look out for them. You heard it here first.
I've been paying attention to them for the past year or so.
Very talented. Have the looks. And the stage presence. The trifecta.
Opened for Foo Fighters and Stone Temple Pilots and will be opening for Muse later this year.
They dropped a new video yesterday. More. The video is well produced and the song kicks ass imo. I love how it slowly creeps from a 4:3 ratio to 16:9. Check em out and let me know what you think.

The Redacted thing cracks me up.. a cleaver solution to a problem that never existed.

They were talking 1968 on the 73 thread. Goodness.. what a rabbit hole to climb down into.

I realized listening to this awesome release last night ( that Playin' goes all over) that this show was 15 days after my life-changing shows at Berkeley Community Theater, when I got on the bus after Dark Star>Morning Dew on August 24. That's pretty cool.

Indeed, a blast from the past VGUY. I somehow stumbled across a thing saying that Sputnik had put out a 4-disc set/remaster of Flaunt It, mostly remixes and b-sides but also a final CD containing a short live performance from Abbey Road. I had to check it out. Nothing really new there, and it's aged about as well as one would expect, but they had some clever hooks, I'll certainly give them that

Happy Sunday everyone. Got Garcia and Kahn 10/16/85 Santa Cruz playing rn

Had gotten almost all of the show itself by the time the wife and I headed for Vermont, right in the same vicinity as dmcvt was describing ticks abounding... Anyhoo, just lovely scenery all around us, and while driving in Rutland noted mountains in the distance in all directions, and it being such a wondrous thing. And I had yet to get into the Dead that was on my USB, went through mix cds I made that snuck in Yonder Mountain doing Reuben and Cherise for NYE one year and it was included on a Jerry Jams cd for Rex Foundation about 10 years back and Cumberland from Workingman's, as well as Levon Helm's take on Tennessee Jed, otherwise Dead free. Then the wife began to drift in and out of napping, so I put on 46 at a low volume, so now I couldn't hear Phil, but could hear Jerry, some Bob, and a lot of Billy. This gave me a new perspective on the playing, and Jerry was really hot. Bird Song is incredible (a previous listen suggested the same at much better volume, and at which one could hear how locked in Phil and Billy were for this rendition, just amazing, given the nature of the song and their playing styles), with Jerry just ripping it. The Kreutzmann drum roll across his kit in Bird Song is panned beautifully thanks to Owsley's mic placement, and a really well executed version that takes it time even as the band comes back in early. I wasn't as impressed by the Playing. Veneta outshines it, sure, but so do other ones from this monthly period. China Rider was excellent, Phil and Jerry really on it, Bob and Billy, too. Not commenting much on Keith, because another release where you hear him sometimes, but nothing that really stands out. Likely the mix. Wonder why Bear never challenged himself to finally solve the problem of mic'ing Keith, or just buying a damned electric piano? But I digress, love the bluegrassy Friend of the Devil, even if they were shaky on it. The He's Gone is a nice pre-cursor to where it would be in two months, and beyond where it was as a first set song just two weeks before in Berkeley on DaP 24 8/25/72. Truckin' is a blast, Jerry and Bob are tearing it up when they begin an Other One jam, but first Drums, then the beast is unleashed. I've got 4 full listens now of the released version (3 back when first announced on Archive version that seemed most complete), and the one with the wife at low volume featured us driving past a dead turkey in the road, and she remarked "what was that dead animal?" I told her it was a turkey, she said, "No, it was the sound coming out of your Grateful Dead". "Oh." But then we got a nice bit with Brokedown Palace from the Bonus as we drove past a river in the friscalating dusk light.

Hopefully, you like that Other One, Proudfoot, I think it's one of my favorite versions ever. I'd also be so bold as to say Dave screwed up in 2001 when he chose 9/17/72 Baltimore for DiP 23 over this show. I actually pulled that out to listen to it when this was announced and I checked it out on Archive, and I wasn't so impressed by it. But this one, this one is in my top 10 Dave's Picks, probably top 5. Wish the Bonus had the Other One from Jersey City for another jam, but loved the Half Step, never heard Jerry sing one with that much enthusiasm. The vocal mix on the bonus material is way too loud, especially the harmonies. Hence another wish that Other One had made it. But overall very pleased.

....but whether it's Dallas or Seattle, Vegas has the upper hand.
I've been wrong before, but I'm just armchair forwarding here.
No ticks in the SW. Hot here.
Miss Half Step is a tough song to categorize.
So I'm not even going to try.
'It was coming out of your Grateful Dead'. Been there!
Except it's 'that's the Grateful Dead talkin' for ya'.
I have a step granddaughter that says that to me, then rolls her eyes, then gives me a hug and smiles.
It could be worse.

To Vegas and Vguy. Only saw the first period but the skating was fast and furious. Unlike some other games I've watched in the playoffs those two teams spent a lot of time between the blue lines stealing it away from each other. These guys are fast and not afraid to let the defensemen do the defending. They take risks which is more fun to watch.
Cheers

VGuy - A gutsy effort by your GK to shutdown the Dynamic Duo. Nicely done! I may play some (Name Redacted) in honour of the Glittering Knights today.

Jack - Embarrassed doesn’t cover it. As the Elephant Man Leaf Fan said, “Look away, I’m hideous”. Liking the Canes in the east, and VGK in the west, but mega respect for the Kraken for playing out of their minds.

I thought it was "friscillating" all these years, and was hoping somebody would pick up the reference. An interwebs search discovered not only had I spelt it wrpng in my head all these years, somebody made a song based on the reference, which is the only reason I've even heard of such an archaic word was Owen Wilson's character's absurd concluding paragraph in the reading of his second novel Old Custer ("Now, everybody knows Custer died at Little Big Horn; what this book presupposes is... maybe he didn't?") in The Royal Tenenbaums: The crickets and the rust-beetles scuttled among the nettles of the sagethicket. "Vamanos, amigos", he whispered as he slung the busted leather flintscraw across the loose weave of the saddlecock. And they rode on in the friscalating dusklight.

It was kind of boring. A couple of very odd goals for Dallas.

Vguy - as a Sabres fan, I can’t in good conscience ever back Dallas. So, I’m on your side again. Not a good omen for you.

Gotta go with the Panthers simply because they took out Boston. Very unexpected final four. It feels weird.

I’d normally be rootin for the ultimate underdogs (FLA) but I can’t behind them for several reasons.
Canes meh, and, no offense, like Angry Jack it’s against the law back in Bu faf to ever root for any Dallas team lol.
All that plus I think the Knights are the team to beat currently.
So yeah, sorry Vince, with AJS and myself backing the Knights, hopefully we won’t spread the curse!

Man these fall 72 jams are sweet. Recently got reacquainted with Dicks 23 and 36, yoosah…

The Dallas Stars' owner long-ago screwed over the State of Hockey, aka, Minnesnow-ta, and took our beloved North Stars way down south, so there's no way I can root for them. And if your ponds don't freeze in the winter, then it's difficult for me to root for your hockey team . . . :)

By the time I got the email from RGM it said sold out and the notify me when available tab was under that. Oddly, I had looked on their site less than an hour ago when I saw LMG's post and went through a huge number of GD items, mostly DiPs and Road Trips CDs and never saw the DiP 1 vinyl offering, but I did see the DaP 1 vinyl there. Must have missed it. Dang, that is a great release and this new version even has Phil's missing bass solo. Five minutes late with a dollar in my hand. Dennis, you lucky dog!
Cheers
Edit: 3000 in an hour or two? Read what you will into that sales figure, era, vinyl vs. CD? Your guess is as good as mine.

The new record is heavy metal, as confirmed by the band. These guys are pretty good that that genre too!!
Re most of you rooting for Vegas, I consider that a positive, not a negative.
"If ponds don't freeze over".
Checks the remaining teams. Deadheadbrewer is out of luck lol.
It is actually kinda strange, as AJS stated.
Re vinyl drops, yeah. You gotta be on your toes and constantly paying attention. The vinyl phoenix has apparently risen from the ashes.

funny story-I gifted a DaP46 to a good friend who helped us stay in Ventura for the Skull & Roses Festival this April. He was surprised, did not know of this release. He's not tracking dead.net like we do. He's looking forward to listening to it. In his words, "This show turned me into a deadhead". Sweet.

As with 1stshow, got the email too late for any good to come of it. Not following the 1000 online. I was able to get DiPs 26, 36, 19, and 26 all relatively easily. 19 and 26 had larger runs, and didn't sell out that quickly, more like days, and I think those were limited in first batch online and also like 20 bucks less, too. Bummer, was hoping for this one on vinyl, hope they get me with the email...
