Sundog Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 That's not encouraging. Hopefully the powers that be will re-think their decision. After all, Jerry would want us to have this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave James Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Just received this this morning from Spin Records. Sounds like the foot draggers among us will have to look elsewhere for our fix. Hi, thanks for the enquiry. Unfortunately as thing stand at the moment we have full capacity on our pre-orders. We are trying to secure extra copies from the 'Dead' but at the moment this looks unlikely. Keep an eye on spincds.com for any further developments. Many Thanks Steve@Spin Up over and out.

vajerzy Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I keep on asking for it and Nathan keeps on sending me the same auto-response as someone else posted. Oh well- hoping I'll stumble upon a set one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 I, too am glad that someone started the Dead Thread. My taste for the band has always been quite narrow: I love the sprawling psychedelia of 1968-1970. I do not own any of the studio albums, just a couple of the legit live releases and several CD-rs of live material downloaded from various places. A couple of goldmines in particular: 4-22-69 The second set here is exquisite. The Mountains of the Moon transitions into Dark Star in a smooth, subtle way. Jerry jams at the end of mountains first on acoustic, and switches to electric, and finally moves into Dark Star for about 1/2 hour. 4-21-69 & 1-20-68 This is two shows, with the second being short, incomplete and filler. All that said, 1-20-68 is quite nearly my favorite. Clementine is the pinnacle of swirling psychedelic ecstasy for me. Other shows can be found at the main level of that site. Dark Star is my absolute favorite. I listen to Jerry's guitar playing and I try to figure out where all of the ideas come from. You can easily pass over some of it as noodling, and granted there were not always on, but much of that is pure beauty. I hear some of his bluegrass roots, but he brings something original to the table as well. Phil Lesh's bass playing during these years sound as if he is playing regular guitar on the bass, at least part of the time. It is as if he is not part of the rhythm section, but rather part of the front line. Live / Dead is a fave! ← Does ANYONE out there no where I can find a download of 8/27/72 or somehow or other acquire it? I am so hungry to hear this show again! I lost all my bootleg collection in the hurricane... And anyway that's probably most important show to me. Really its the most beautiful music I've ever heard and I am so hungry for it i can almost taste it. Please if you know where I can find it post the link and I'll be eternally grateful. Thanks.

jazzbo Posted September 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Hope all of you had a great birthday! I've been listening to Dick's Picks Vol. 14 a few times over the weekend and this week. Man, I like these two shows! There are instances on both shows where the vocal mikes aren't balanced well, but otherwise I think the sound is very vivid and dimensional. And there are great performances here. . . . Jerry's (then very new) Alembic guitar really sounds great and he seems to be really having fun playing and is quite inventive. Godchaux too (Keith that is, Donna Jean is not present, she's having the baby) seems to be really thinking and making great contributions.

sal Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 I love Dick's Picks 14. I still remember the day it came in the mail...I had just finished my most difficult final exam back in college, and came home to the package sitting on the doorstep....a beautiful night of music and fun.

Guest akanalog Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 i remember driving to long island to some crappy store callled prime cuts or something when i was in college and they sold hissy noise reduced tapes of live jamband shows and buying a tape of one of these dicks picks 14 shows. havent listened in years-the one with the mind left body jam. think it's 12/2. that was a great second set. something that bothered me was the inevability of the "tiger" buildup. always the same peak to the real out jams with some autowah abuse. i think keith actually touches the e-piano during this mind left body jam. where is there a great one? is it 12/6 coming fast out of dark star?
