Thanks for the heads-up.
Those are upgrades of my versions of those shows and if CM thought it needed an upgrade I'll take it.

I handed down a few of my upgradeds to my friend Mike because he said he likes the jams between songs.
He had Terrapin Station and a few others on LP in the 70s but never heard any live shows (!)
He was digging on the 1/11/79 in the house and the 10/1/77 in the car.
I used to give my hand-me-downs to my wife but she has a stack just sitting there so she's good.
Mike got a 5/19/74 and 2/19/71 so the 10/18/72 & 11/19/72 will be good fills in his newly hatched collection.

I'll make him some May 77, a Red Rocks 78, some Fillmore 71 and some Primal 68-69-70 when I get a minute.

He'll be hooked through the gills by the end of the week :)

Is it gonna be worth the effort for me to start using torrents? I'm debating.

It depends...I've burned over 900 live Grateful Dead CDRs and I'm up through late '79.
Torrents are the only way I could have such a smokin collection.

You want to build a collection? http://www.utorrent.com/

How's the debate progressing?

I use Memorex CD-R @ $22.88/100 & Targus Citygear 160 CD/DVD wallets.

Best Buy price-matches Wally World if you don't like Wal or if Best Buy's closer.

Targus released Citygear products a couple of years ago.
They're the best I've found for quality of construction and looks.
320 or 256 might be better sized for archiving but they're too damn big/heavy for travelling and much of anything else.
The Citygear line has a well constructed handle on the 160's spine.

perfect

BTW - They stopped making the Citygear 160 but pcrush has them @ Amazon for a good price with fast shipping
Not affiliated, just trying to help...um, I have 6 of them :)

If I read that correctly, even though they are "using the original 1/4" tapes" for these, that they are still mastering to digital, albeit at 96/24, for the vinyl release. GUH. That's not for me then, for $205. I just don't understand why that's necessary.

Gotta a spare $205, Dick's Picks 3 & 4 available for pre-order. I don't know, as much as I would like these, it's just too much money.

Damn, I only missed "Lucky For Life" by five numbers (I got one). Maybe if I hit Mega Millions tonight. ;)

I'll get the whole collection on LP if I hit the numbers. Really I will. Jerry, help a brother out...
