Who's up for a revolutionary evolutionary ride? DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 1/2/70 captures the Grateful Dead as they make their first foray from the experimental 60s into their early 70s acoustic Americana period. Yes, this one is a little bit country and a little bit (psychedelic) rock and roll.

When the "Magnificent Seven" - Pigpen on percussion, T.C. on keys - first took the stage on 1/2/70, evidence was clear that the trip was about to take a turn. From their western wears to the twang in Jerry’s “broken-string blues,” it appeared they'd brought the Bakersfield sound to the Big Apple. They worked through much of what would become Workingman's Dead, stunning the crowd with laid-back numbers like "Uncle John's Band," "Casey Jones," and "Black Peter." Just the same, they satisfied 60s stalwarts with magical versions of "Dark Star," "St. Stephen," and "That's It For The Other One." Sonic alchemy, indeed!

DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30: FILLMORE EAST, NEW YORK, New York 1/2/70 has been rounded out with a bit of 1/3/70 (the subscribers-only bonus disc features the bulk of 1/3/70). It was recorded by the great Owsley "Bear" Stanley and has been lovingly mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman.

DAVE'S PICKS VOLUME 30 is limited to 20,000 individually-numbered copies*.

*Limited to 2 per order. Very limited quantity available.

Yeah Right Thin

All the music in the world, 90% of which I won't listen to, for 10 bucks a month sounds as good as that cable TV bill I was paying 15 bucks a month for in 1980. Was great at the time, but my cable bill is 10x the cost now, and keeps going up. Have fun with your streaming in 10 years. And besides, streaming and digital technology has killed the recording artists, and in turn, the concert scene. Piracy IS the reason the reason concert ticket sales are so high now. Artists have to make their money on the road, because there's little for them in songwriting royalties anymore. Technology killed the concert scene. What used to be a festive getaway for any who desired it is now reserved for the priveledged. And like wise Charlie said, the only CDs I buy is Limited Edition Dead CDs, and like wise KeithFan said, the fun part is opening the damn package and enjoying the artwork, the liner notes, and that great smell.

There's no turning back from it all, but make no mistake, we're being tethered and robbed in the long con. Enjoy your financial bondage.

Interesting Discussion

First.. why only ten comments per page? You blink or take a day hike and you have scroll back 10 pages to get the pulse of what's going on.

Second.. 8-Tracks always sucked... well, they were ok for the first ten plays but on the 11th play your car or portable 8-Track player would get hungry and inevitably eat your tape. Then you realized you had to buy a really nice, expensive deck so it wouldn't eat your tapes.. you'd then get 37 listens before it got hungry and ate your tape and be out an extra $350 for a new high-end, but still shitty deck. If you were skilled.. you could somehow pull it out, bend and tuck all that extra tape back into the 8-Track cassette, but every time that part of the album came on it would sllllloooowwww dooowwwwnn where it was stretched.. then skip 10 seconds where you had to cut and splice it back together with scotch tape, etc. There is no comparing any media to 8-Tracks because they sucked that bad. As soon as my first tape was eaten, I loathed them and could not wait for a better technology. They were the first media you could play in a car, once another arrived they were gone like the dodo. Plus, album art or liner notes, forget about it. Comparing any of this to 8-tracks is like wondering why no one drives Edsels anymore.

As for streaming.. I find it just doesnt work well for dead music. I mean, what band has 2,318 albums? Amazon Alexa, for example, has a ton of concerts on their service.. but asking 'her' for one and having 'her' return and play the show you like is next to impossible. "Alexa, Play Grateful Dead Cornell University, 5/8/77" (which is in there) and you get "mmm I can't find that, here's Donnie and Marie Paper Roses 1977 instead", said in the most polite, androgynous voice possible.

Streaming just becomes difficult for a band with so many [albums] or shows, whatever. If it was quicker/easier to find exactly what I want, I would stream more. Perhaps tomorrow this will get better.

Who knows. I think for deadheads, who seem to have an almost unquenchable thirst for good music.. they will stream for the convenience and buy Dave's Picks and perhaps a box set a year, so why would Rhino walk away from that extra revenue stream of the new releases from the vault? In fact, their revenue is increasing, they are not going to pull the plug just yet. Streaming is for what has already been released and all the other music you listen to, but vault releases will likely continue to be released on physical media as a niche product. ..then in a few years it will wind up on the streaming platforms.

My two cents and I could be wrong.. I see GD listeners as being perhaps streamers and I'm going to get Dave's Picks too because I want it and it makes me happy and I want it now.

Oh.. and Charlie3, I totally get why you live where you live and it being worth the sacrafice of being plugged in all the time. An amazing part of the world.. beautiful and lots to do. Nothing wrong with cities, but you are in big sky country, I'd take it for 15 (slow) gigs a month or whatever the limit is and speed is. Perhaps 5G will change some of this.

So anyway.. this could be the year of the Ark. Makes sense, doesn't it. Bolo, bolo, bolo. There, said it three times.

Pointless progress

There have been so many changes in format since I bought my first L.P in 1971. The move to cassettes, on to cds, on to digitally remastered cds-circa 1995, onto new digitally remastered cds this century using the latest technology. And now streaming. I am not sure what progress has been made, really. A lot of it seems, now-with the benefit of hindsight-to be a marketing ploy.
The move from having videos, onto dvds onto blu ray seems to me to have marked progress-but a lot of improvements to consumer items is surely designed to create profit-not to improve quality.

Will Music Streaming Servers Survive an E.M.P.

I too prefer hardcopy CD's. As far as I know Cd's cannot loose their data in the event of electro magnetic pulse event,
solar event etc.

I also preorder Dave's Picks Subscription every year for $99. Not try something stupid like try to cancel 1/2 my placed order. Just sell the extra at cost.

Slogan of the Day

Just as an aside, my vote goes to VGuy for the slogan of the day with "You can lead a head to Winterland, but you can't lead him to his seat."

The answer to the recurrent question of "how could I have purchased a copy of this release before it sold out?" is to SUBSCRIBE. Don't chase each Dave's Pick, subscribe and trick them into showing up at your door.

I get what you are saying, and you may be right about the expense issue to some extent, but let me expand on a couple of my points.

My total data for the month through my internet provider is 15GB. For the month. I burn through that in two weeks just reading news and for work purposes. I would be seriously limited in my ability to stream or download music, let alone video, and would have to ration my listening time. That has no appeal. My phone service is also a plan with limited data, so that really doesn't change the picture. The data limitations alone mean that streaming is not really an option unless I jump up to a substantially more expensive data plan, and then pay for the streaming service on top of that. Your calculation assumes that there is no cost to data or internet access, but that is not the case for me. I would have the streaming cost, plus the cost of the additional data needed to make it worthwhile. I get this is an issue related to my geographic location, but I really like my geographic location with it's low population density and spectacular scenery. I have limited data access, but the one of the largest roadless area in the lower 48, the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, is just across the valley, with hiking trails in every just about every drainage up and down the Bitterroot Valley and an abundance of other nearby wilderness areas in just about every direction. I am getting by without the extra data.

As far as cost, most of what I buy at this point is limited edition dead releases, including Dave's Picks and the annual box set, that won't be available on a streaming service, so I will be stuck paying for that on disc whether or not I stream everything else. If I buy something on disc this month and go broke with unexpected expenses next month, I can listen to the music I already own without spending a dime, but with streaming I am committed to paying the monthly fee forever or I would not be able to listen to any of "my music". I would be paying for the same music month after month, most of which I already own on disc at this point. Which brings me to sunk costs. I already have a decent number of discs, since I haven't counted in a while I'll estimate about a few hundred, maybe close to a thousand. At this point I can listen to them without paying a dime, and since they represent the things that I am most likely to listen to, I would be paying to stream a lot of music that I already own on disc and can listen to for free. And to be honest, the whole streaming thing triggers some kind of atavistic luddite response for me, and I make no claim that this is necessarily a response that will seem logical to others.

Bottom line, if you dig streaming, go for it, the future looks bright for you. If you're one of those folks who dig vinyl, good timing, it seems to have made a comeback. For me, I foresee CD's being the source of my music for the foreseeable future.

I would love to experience…

I would love to experience Dave's Picks 30, but unfortunately, due to a ridiculous purchase process, I lost out. Won't go into gory details, but I got no help trying to deal with a problem (mistakenly ordered two cd's and tried to cancel one). Supposedly couldn't delete one unless I emailed a request. I did not get a response until 5 days later, and now the cd is sold out.

Because of this, and the fact that there is such a ridiculously low number of cd's released, making it virtually impossible to purchase a cd, I will not purchase anything from Deadnet again.

....yeah. About that. Been in our current house for three years. I love it, but that was one complaint I had about it. Mrs. Vguy trumped me. Now where's my sledgehammer? (a wall. Not my wife).
....streaming. I'm slowly accepting it. What choice do I have? Buffering sucks major ass. An exercise in futility. 😡 I dread being that guy who has a laptop/tablet in every room. Ptth.

*Re/ Keithfan & ‘The Other One’s’

...Keithfan my friend, hope all is well. How about the performance from 10/26/71 Rochester NY, sequence- ‘Truck’n >>Drums>>’The Other One’. I think it’s a great performance!
“This is something new” the band tells the crowd of fans at ‘The Palestra’ after finishing a Primo performance of ‘ Comes A Time’ and then the dead jump into ‘One More Saturday Night’! Oh yeah, play it loud!!! Primo Show all around really in my Dead Head Opinion lol ha ha 🙏❤️😎take care everyone. God bless.
...Almost forgot about 4/29/77 , a Sweet version of ‘Sugaree’, ‘Scarlet Begonias’ & ‘Going Down the Road’ feeling bad! Love’n it all! Smile Smile Smile!

...Keithfan, I also enjoy the 7/21/72 performance in Seattle. PRIMO ‘Truck’n>>Drums/Bass>>’The Other One’! 😉✌️

Grateful Dead Meet-Up At The Movies 2019

Grateful Dead Meet-Up 2019 will feature 6/17/91 from Giants Stadium, and "as a special treat, this extraordinary screening will also feature a reveal of the Grateful Dead's 2019 boxed set, featuring the Dead's legacy manager, archivist and producer David Lemieux."

*Re/ Meet Up Movie 2019

...I love the Grateful Dead, all eras, I shit you not. Lol ha ha...but Im really not too excited for this release. Even though it’s from the 48 master recordings( I’m a huge fan of primo high quality audio🙏). And the set list is more than grateful!
I was there. I attended this show and I had a Blast! It was in a grateful time in my life. As I look back, I try to recall every performance / show I attended with a special part some where hidden in thy body & soul. This performance at Giants Stadium I remember like it was yesterday. If I sit or stand still, close my eyes and focus. I’m right back where it all began, boom, it hits close to my heart, maybe that’s why I’m steering away from this release?. It sure brings back a rush of old memories, good & bad, All and All a lovey story about love, death & travel, just think of jack kerouac writing...I know this is going to be a Primo Event for the Band and their Fans!
Long live the ‘good ol Grateful Dead’ !
“There’s Nothen Like a Grateful Dead Concert!”

Box announcement on Jerry’s bday

But I can’t wait that long.

48-track?
Wow.

Wonder what the other show is that was recorded in 48.

Excellent work Gordon the drummer

Happy to hear we'll be finding out soon!

6-16/17-91 Giants Stadium

The band really tried to make these shows special. The pages going around with Jerry's guitar on them were the bomb.

It's sad that we will never see these two shows released in a box-set with blu-ray video.

Edit: These two were taped for release.

6/17/91 MUATM

Yahoo!!!!

It's gonna be fun

and the box set announcement

save yer dollars and cents for that

i predict box will be a bunch of 91 shows

or maybe all Port Chester shows in Bear-quality sound

48 tracks?

what details did they need with 48 tracks?

Box reveal

Per the link below:
As a special treat, this extraordinary screening will also feature a reveal of the Grateful Dead's 2019 boxed set.

I take ‘reveal’ to mean a showing of the Box itself.

So hopefully we get the pre-order announcement soon.
Maybe delivery in August/September, similar to PNW.

Mmmmmmm.......Box Set.........

2 more months???

Stoltzfus when you said June 3rd, I figured that was the announcement of the box set, not the announcement for the announcement. But that's okay, at least I can relax for a couple months now knowing exactly when the date is. The other guy said he heard something different from you, but clearly he knows not.

Exile on main st.

Ha, false prophet. No time to copy dead.net description. Exile you crack me up.

Disc 3

Face melter

Box set

I might be mistaken but I think they used the film event to do a box set reveal last year but I’m pretty sure we all knew the details of the release prior to the film. Right??

80s fan

I was also kind of thinking that's how it went down. August is awfully late for the reveal. Even 30 Trips was early as June for a Sept release.

6/17/91 MUATM

I am not sure if I have listened to this show or not.. but I am quite sure I have not seen in on a big screen.

This is good news.. I enjoy the Bruce year (+).

*Re/ Daves Pick #31

...Daves Picks#31 Release is at the end of July 2019...🙏❤️😎

I'm gonna jump in here....

....and agree to stop the false prophet digs. Life's too short.
I'm also going to jump in and say that the 10.9.80 acoustic set at the Warfield is good, but the 10.10.80 acoustic set is grate!
I haven't been to a MUATU event yet....that is going to change this year.
48 tracks? I'm guessing track 34 is picking up Phil's farts.

*Re/ other 45 master recording...

...if I’m not mistaken the other recording of 45 master tape is from another performance in the same fun of shows... I’ll have to double check, it slip’d my mind. 🙏❤️😎

Almost Pigpen-less 12/6/71

I listen to 12/6/71 from time to time still. Just noticed Pigpen only sang three songs that night. None in the 2nd set. Must have been feeling shitty. I like this show.

6/17/1991

This is a fantastic show. One of the only ones they ever opened with Eyes of the World, I believe. And certainly the Bruce factor out of the gate is Immortal. They weave in and out of Dark Star the entire show but never actually go all the way. Great interplay and I can't wait for 48 tracks. Wow.

And of course, we've probably seen at least the Eyes of the World and Saint of Circumstance featured on the "In-Concert" series that was briefly on network television in the 1990s where those clips were featured and I happened to be able to record it on VHS at the time. I then found a way to transfer that to cassette tape and from there it eventually made its way to a CD.

Then I finally found archive.org. The rest is history as they say.

Re: Phil Farts

The real reason they dismantled the Wall of Sound.

12.6.71....

....I like it as well. It was in my last last five. I already have a new last three. The latest last five report will land within two hours. Give or take twenty minutes.

Got to think..

That this years MUATM's will be part of their new YouTube streaming concept. So the question is.. Free, you have put up with commercials or Subscription, or a hybrid.

I'm honestly surprised they are not going with the Nugs model.. but instead of livestream, you can just buy the stream and watch it whenever you want.

Saint Lou showed up tonight....

....I think Chara lost a couple of chicklets.

Have to chime in here

I also listened to 12/6/71 this past week and it was eons better than I remembered it. With the exception of Weir missing a line in Truckin' ( I'd be disappointed if he didn't), it's a near perfect stroll through their new school tunes, which they had a nice shine on by 12/71. The Other One with Bobby McGee in between into Wharf Rat is gold. Closes out with one of their best UJB (as far as their non-extended Jam renditions go).

PNW Box/2019 Box

The PNW box was announced on June 12, 2018. I bought mine on the first day. They arrived at our homes in early September.
Seems like the dates for this year's box release according to the MUATM announcement will be close to last year. So, we should know something soon. Can't wait. Don't be fooled by the 1991 MUATM date, they won't be dipping into 1991 for awhile.

When i said 6 3 for announcement

I typed Bolo the PRANKSTER all caps

never trust a Prankster

and certainly dont trust me on the box set

I was hoping we _would_ hear today...

Daves Picks 30 and Shredded Field Mice

Now the proud owner of a new Rega Saturn cd player-complete with actual cabinet, to place it in,, as opposed to whatever happens to be lying around as has traditionally been the case, I finally gave this a listen. I am well impressed with the sound quality, I have to say. The 3rd cd, as every one has already said, is the one. Maybe the correct playing order is that, followed by the rest of it. I like the first 2cds well enough, though. While I am here, I could share my last 5-apart from the above, they read
Live at Dusseldorf 3/28/79 Steve Hillage
Live in Ohio 4/28/74 King Crimson
The Contact Sessions The Thirteenth Floor Elevators
Power Plant The Golden Dawn
and last but definitely not least, the only recorded evidence of of Snakegrinder and the Shredded Field Mice. On vinyl. Genius.

5 Cents Please

I'm glad everyone had their therapeutic purge, now it's time to move on or take it to the PM. Capeesh?

So I'm getting a head start on the Winterland June 1977 Complete Recordings anniversary run. Let me just say I love the Scarlet Fire on here. The beginning is really cool, because they take a while to get into the vocals, so you can just kind of space out and relax for a bit. There's this mesmerizing Jam section towards the end of Scarlet that is really just a thing of its own - never heard them go off quite like this. It's a couple minutes long, and a mellow moment, but a damn fine one. Don't mind the microphone problem on the first verse. Of all the things, it's hard to imagine this box set goes for $400 used on eBay. It does have all the biggies though. The Cornell box doesn't even have a conjoined Estimated Eyes.

Play nicely boys and girls

Come on guys and gals let’s stop this bickering . I’m sure the good people of rhino will do what’s best for us all 🤞and deliver some box set news as and when . In the mean time let’s not forget it’s all about fun and enjoying the music we’ve already got ( to be honest I haven’t finished PNW yet !! ) At least you people over the pond have got MUATM and let’s not forget dead & co shows . We've had diddly squat over in limey land since nov 1990 .
P.S . LMG I saw the doors alive cover band in my home town ( St Albans ) last week and they were fantastic - thought of you when they played 5 to 1 😺 .
P.P.S. I’m currently loving dicks picks 19 at the mo . I do love me some 73 dead . 😸😸😸

Phil Farts

They only took the wall of sound down because they couldn't get the "odorama" to work. I still have the card from that performance.

Lovemygirl & Exile

Keith fan made a great suggestion. Move on or take it to the PM. Not because he is any kind of moderator or anyting, but because everyone is tired of your personal feud. So what are you do? You announce you're going to write a short response and then you write a novel. Nobody cares about what you're talking about. Show some respect for the rest of the board and take it to the private forum that you have at your disposal.

LMG and exile

Take it to the p.m. please. Really, you're so full of negative vibes both of you, but I haven't seen a response from exile, which I'm happy for. Someone made a suggestion to p.m. each other, so go ahead and do that. The room is not interested in any of this.

I think if you both want to be stand-up guys and redeem yourselves to the room, you should go back and edit your posts down to one positive sentence and take all of your comments to the p.m. Nobody wants to read this. If you are truly people who stand for the good vibes of the board like you say you are, just remove what you've written. Click edit and write something like Good Day Sunshine. Or smile smile smile. Or primo peggy-o's. But please spare us of all of it and cut / paste to p.m.

um, guys

enough with the personal disputes. Take it offline, please. Thank you.

Fine, just do it on PM

Hey LMG & EOMS. Your "existential" spat, like all too many before, doesn't belong here. LMG, I just about always enjoy your posts and look forward to reading more in the future. You too, Exile. Doesn't sound like anyone else thinks you need to defend your good names, but if you're passionate about doing so, please take it to PM (as in "PERSONAL/PRIVATE" Messages) where it belongs.

48 tracks...& Otis

Possibly;
1) more Mickey Toys
2) More Keyboard/Bralove toys
3) They were collecting live tracks for possible release ala Without a Net..
4) some/all of the above.......don’t think the rest were doing anything that different that would of required more tracks? Would think the midi stuff would still source to the mixes via their individual rigs direct or mic’d as usual?
I believe I read somewhere that they used 64 for Built to Last? That’s probably as much as convenience as actually needing that many?

OTIS/J Roddy & the Bidness; tell your boy Billy we really enjoyed, the wife especially as she’s not “one of us” lol, so likes the more straightforward R&R......to me they seemed like a band trying to be as tight and “professional” as possible, you know, trying to “make it” (Not that that’s a bad thing) But the whole time I felt like “what if this guy started ripping up some Zepplin”? You can sometimes really tell who a musicians main influences were, and I’m betting Page was it for your friend?

if I were desperate for GD, I would listen again.

I Say Phil, My Dog Has No Nose

If anyone was at the SPAC show on 6/27/85 (great show by the way, listening to it now for old times sake).

Bobby breaks the tension created when VGuy and KeithFan were dangerously dangling from balcony by reaching deep into his bag of tricks and telling the funniest joke in the world.. developed in WWII as a secret weapon used to end the war. This appears as song 5 on the Miller seed on the archive, "Get Down From The Balcony." tsk tsk boys.

Here is the origin of the joke.

An now you know the rest of the story.

Midnight Hour > Bertha. Such a strong opener to an under-rated show.. Certainly releasable one day.

GarciaLive Vol 11

Would love to see an Ark box or even something off the cuff like a Spectrum box set (I grew up a few miles from there) The anticipation is killing me. Super pumped for the MUATM. I only caught about a dozen shows with Jerry and 6/17/91 has always stuck out to me and I have always considered it the best Dead show I saw live. Can't wait to relive it again :)

While we are awaiting the box set announcement, I stumbled upon this
