I've seen the Dead over 100 times in my life and never tire of listening to their music. I collect live, soundboard recordings and currently have over half of every gig they ever played. I'm currently going thru the enormous amounts of their early gigs in .shn format, and am finding some gems I had totally forgotten about. Especially Pig's songs, which are outstanding! NOTE: Right now on Spotify you can download all 36 releases of Dicks Picks in one download. It states 24 hours but I was able to d/l it in 17 hours.

Do you guys include data such as the source or transfer info in your tags when scrobbling archived Dead shows? I've been trying to standardize my digital Dead collection, and I'm fairly happy with the way I've tagged most official releases, but it could prove ambiguous for archived versions, since there may be different sources for the same concert. Just wondering I guess lol

some shows were pretty heavily priced, yeah, but from the shows I listened to, it's some of the best musicians who've played the Dead. Mayer, Oteil and Chimenti are all out of this world, and Jay Lane with his uptempo funk gives it a youthful, vital vibe. At least listen to the first night of the Gorge if you haven't yet.

Idk man. I don't think there's any point in seeing the Dead if half the original band is dead. It feels like it's a cover band at that point. Not something to drop big money on

Hello! I've been away for a while, hense not much going on, at least thru Last. Fm. I ALWAYS have WinAmp open and play whatever the hell I feel like. I remember back in the day I had 100, then 300, then 500, then 1000--->> up to 1400 LP ALL in Alphabetical Order and each artist's LP in Chronological order, with plastic sleeves over every vinyl platter inside the Cover and then a plastic cover over EACH album. NO ONE TOUCHED MY RECORDS! HEHEHE..... Eventually when CD's came along, and I was in the middle of a 30-year IT career, I said screw it and sold them all for $19,000, I'm going digital. That was back in 1985-86, somewhere in there. I also had a gazillion Fillmore West, Winterland, and a shitload of other posters in the same condition, and the guy wanted them BAD so I sold them as well. I think I got #13,000 - $14,000 for them...OH, they were a "combo pack" kinda or poster and every Rolling Stone Magazine since #1 with John Lennon on the cover. Luckily for me, Narster was going.

i love getting so lost in a dark star that i'm taken by surprise when they start to sing and can't recall whether it's been five minutes or fifteen since it started, and the greatest part is, in my experience, it could be either or anything in between

this band is hell to scrobble properly but the day Grateful Dead have a cohesive digital discography is the day I shuffle off this mortal coil

more importantly: does anyone know how/where to get the GD archive shows 1) easily; 2) in lossless? i'm very annoyed to see how many of the archive.org shows have been switched to 'stream only' when they weren't before...and it seems there are workarounds, but only for mp3 not flac or wav etc ;_;

what’s the coziest damn dead bootleg a man can find? i want some nice tape haze, warm sounds, chill songs played with a kind of casual grace…somebody please hook an idiot up

I don't think it has the tape haze you're looking for, but for a casual and chill performance, I have a soft spot for 1973/06/10 - Robert F. Kennedy Stadium. It opens with the smoothest and most graceful Morning Dew I've ever heard them play and that sets the scene for a whole show that just oozes with a luminous silkiness. It's honestly the show that sold me on the Dead. beyond that I would say just look for Sunday shows in general.

nice tip, thanks! i like the idea of them playing chiller shows on sundays. the "row jimmy" from cornell 5/8/77 is my favorite dead thing so far

it's generally understood that the Sunday shows have a warm, church-y vibe, especially if they're playing three nights in one city ending on a Sunday, like people have had their trips and are coming down and just enjoying their afterglow.

late-era dead covering bob dylan songs is one of my favorite things in the world. despite listening to them for over 10 years i'm still surprised and delighted every single time queen jane or tom thumb starts up
