Grateful Dead

dead.net the official site

Sounds great to me. A few flubs and some minor crap that's indicative of live dead music. There is no such thing as perfection. Some better than others. Even close to perfection like Europe 72' live tour. My ears are loving all this shit. P.S. -Donna is doing her part. Sounds young. bella donna!!

old commercial jingle that goes through my head when I hear about Colgate

My new Bose wave cd radio and pink floyd box come in from fed X just now, Plus Dap 32 yesterday. WE MUST BE IN HEAVEN MAN!!!!!! Now just waiting for the July 78 box. Sheesh,now it's raman noodles month.

The heads in philly were really given the A+ show that night. Yes that 23 min jam is rippin. I sure do love a little Spanish jam to a perfect 4 min dark star. Jerry’s vocals were spot on for a heart breaking sing me back home. Donnas 2 come aIives were in harmony as was Phil too. Then right into a rockin sugar magnolia. I noticed my right foot was circling just like the PT showed me a few hours ago. Sugar magnolia physical therapy, they are the best of all time

wow, just re listened to this gem, what a barn burner. Must of blew those freshmen away at the gym. You would have thought that they could have gotten some dope from those same underclassmen, but instead, we get the Jones family, Phil Jones, Jerry Jones, Bobby Jones, etc.... and a beautiful Stella. Good call Keithfan, we must have been on the same wavelength for a second.

I never get any release on the first day, but Friday as I was leaving for the gulf breeze e room, their was the mail lady smiling with DaP 32. Blood clot in left calf from knee replacement surgery. I’m now restricted to bed until my Bruce banner calf goes down. Now I just look at the box and wait. today I put disk 3 in the bedroom blu ray. Guess the good stuff is wearing off and I’m able to think of alternatives. Still, the tv speakers were not what i envisioned to listen to this epic jam set. Oh well adapt and is still sounds great
Jeff smith hope ur making the excellent album art ur famous for
Keep rockin

Colgate Day!

DaP 12

Anniversary date for 11/4 /77 Colgate University, Hamilton NY. Since I didn't receive my DaP 32 yet, I'm going '77 here. Might as well, the next DaP we'll see is from the same week.

This was my first DaP I bought from dead.net. Everything prior came from eBay. This my fav of that first week in November (among DP 34, DaP 25, and the bonus track leftovers that compose 11/2). Too many highlights, but I do recall Dave in the Seaside Chat mentioning the Stella Blue - really ethereal spacey intro. Grateful day to all. With any luck my DaP 32 will come earlier than expected.

Good write-up Butch. I'm not a musician, but I come from a musical family and used to dabble with a Fender Squier in open G tuning. I know exactly what you mean when you talk about harmonizing vs singing in unison, I just didn't know the technical terms for those modes. Big Yes fan, so I hear them do it all the time.

I think DaveRock is onto something. The sound of a subtle drum role for Dave's Picks 36. It needs to be a seasonally appropriate FALL 73 show, in other words.. Dave's Picks 36 will be 12/18/73. Good pick, well done and I concur.

Its a minor point, but..I always wonder why they don't release shows to chime with the season. Looking on this board, a lot of us listen to anniversary shows, or shows for the month we are in - I'm listening to the November 73 box at the moment. Seems a bit out of sequence to get a March 73 show in November. Why release a Spring show in the season of the witch? Not that it matters in the long run.
Might as well do last 5 while I'm here;
Winterland 11/10/73 ...incredible WRS and Playing jam on the second cd
Knickerbocker Arena 3/26/90.....thanks Oroborous. ( I don't always listen to shows form the right month..)
The Universe Also Collapse......Gong
Elements Tour Box 2019...…….King Crimson
The End-blu ray of Birmingham 2/4/17......Black Sabbath. Incredible guitar sound. Extraordinary face Ozzy Osbourne has ended up with. Seems like a life well lived.
