My copies don't indicate which source I used but Hunter Seamons used the one above so that's probably the best SBD available.

Anyone have Dave's Picks 1-4?
I'm reading a thread on a different forum about delaminating discs in DP 1-4 that won't play.
Sorry if this affected anyone here and it hasn't happened to everyone that owns them but you should check.

Sounds like a good excuse to Put them on a streaming service. :beerchug::naughty::deal::idea:

That's why the first thing you should do with a cd is rip it to a hard drive. New copies can always be burned.
 
Just tragic that media that's paid for only exists as digital if the media goes bad.

If a person is into collecting physical media packages, as a keepsake or whatever, or if they just want to make sure that they don't damage the original media by mistake, then they should rip, catalog, backup, and burn copies to play. CD's are pretty fragile and a simple scratch can toast one forever. Blank CD's are cheap, so are the thin jewel cases. You'll always have the original, unless of course it delaminates just sitting in the box. More of a reason the rip a copy.

This is why I stopped acquiring physical media. If I want something I buy a download, 24 bit FLAC if available. And of course, there is always trading of ROIO's, (or trading of RODO's, for that matter). Oh, and I don't buy the Picks because of incomplete shows and filler nonsense. Listen to the whole show, don't mess with history.

By the way Mowgli, I own a couple DCD-1500's and a DCD-820 with a optical output. I'm pretty sure the 1500's don't have output selection, which sucks, because my 820 run as a transport only and through a Tube Magic DAC sounds MUCH better than using the onboard converter.
 
4/23/77 at Springfield is a great show. So 77. The opening Sugaree is 12 minutes of pure gold. Charlie Miller did a great job with the sbd of this show.
 
And to those who got the RSD 5/7/77 Boston Garden vinyl set, congrats. It is a great show in a magical string of shows. Of course, like a lot of the D Picks products, I have a problem with the sanitization of the recording. Anyone who has heard it or heard Dave L play it on Sirius lately has heard the opening Bertha. If you are unfamiliar with the original Betty board, or other recordings of the show, you may wonder what Jerry and Bob were hooting about during the opening chorus. Jerry's amp was giving some feedback, (the show was delayed while they worked on his amp), and the third time it happened, it was so pronounced (loud? unsuspected?), that they both were shocked and let out a laugh. But you won't find this feedback on the RSD version, it has apparently been filtered out.

It is on the Rhino records spring '77 collection "Get Shown The Light", (an 11 CD disk box set containing the 5/5 New Haven, 5/7 Boston, 5/8 Ithaca and the 5/9 Buffalo shows), so kudos to Rhino.

I guess the RSD version is aimed at making a more "polished" product. So be it.
