    6/8/77 :)

    Man I should go for 8/23/68 myself...

    It looks like TN is just ripping right through a who's who of official releases. It would be too dangerous to stop now....

    Daves 2 - 7/31/74 vinyl

    A real epic. With these vinyl box sets I like to just play 2 sides at a time, so it takes a day or so to listen to the whole show. The L.P. version features a run through Seastones, and the next track they play is El Paso. I can't think of any other band that would play two pieces of music so different from each other one after the other in concert.

    It would have been interesting if they had incorporated Seastones type music within some of their jams. It always seems to sit outside the shows in which it was played. A first set. Then an electronic blizzard. Then normal service is resumed when the second set starts. It would have been very interesting if they had included some of these sounds in Dark Star, for example.
    The closest they got to it may have been Unbroken Chain on Mars Hotel.

    Thanks for all the feedback guys. Most of my discs weren't even fully inserted into the sleeves. Got the first 2 shows ripped, and Casey Jones back where it belongs on the first show.

    Hey BC, I also have these CDs in jewel cases as the slip cases are not the best.

    Let's hope the new box has better cases. I always liked the cases in both Spring 90 box sets and the PNW box.

    Almost at the end

    Fantastic show

    Even though Grumpy Grumpkins here isn't thrilled that Throwing Stones bubbles up

    The music prior to that is really good

    Edit:
    Beautiful run of shows

    I imagine it must have cathartic to play so well after the useless tragedy of Brent dying

    God Bless the Grateful Dead

Just received my Dave's Picks Vol. 21!What a great show/recording!1973-That was the year of my very first Dead show in Buffalo,New York!For fellow New York State'ers,some may remember that was the year of Governor Nelson Rockefeller's new get tough anti drug laws going into effect...of which "Don't get caught holding the bag!''was the slogan on all the commercials!Anyway,me and a buddy hitchhiked from Niagara Falls to Buffalo's War Memorial Auditorium to see the Dead when, walking through the parking lot we were searched and busted with weed!The cops took our weed and then let us go with a warning-that almost blew the evening for us but fortunately the Dead and the wall of sound made us forget about the cops by the second song!(at least I think it was a wall of sound show-I know I saw it!)It was billed as two two hour sets-which it was probably more!Vol 21 is pretty much the same set list as that October show as I remember it.(without checking).Great memories of a life changing time in my life-I was 16 years old then and I turn 60 in April!I probably have heard some Dead or JGB almost every day since then!
