Archive again. Or rather, still. Not doing torrents yet.
 
JGB-Garcia Live Volume One, March 1st 1980 Capitol Theatre

Guess this just came out. Culled from a 24 track master is what put the hook in. Sounds wonderful, warts and all. Much better than my Maxell XLII tapes did. Very often a mellower Garcia show hits the spot better than a more raucous Dead show.

This is the first time I heard this on vinyl. It came in the mail today off of an ebay win. I swear, this album has never been played. It is mint. This is the best I've every heard the band sound out of all the recorded shows I've heard digitally. This lp set blows all of them away. it was mixed very well.
 
Nice. I feel the same about Reckoning. Amazing on original DLP. I'll look for the electric set in the bins now.

I have the "For The Faithful" version that I bought new in '84. It's still mint (I forget what the deal was regarding the title-change after just 3 years... Why the reissue... Anybody? I can't imagine the sound-quality is much, if any different between the two pressings

). I'll have to go look for that one and give 'er a listen. I bought a lot of Dead vinyl back in the early '80's. All of their regular catalog. Some used original pressings and some early '80's pressings (I have 1st-pressing originals of "Europe '72", "American Beauty", "Workingman's Dead", and a few others (Around the same time I was buying all the Dead stuff I could find, I also won John Lennon's entire solo album catalog on vinyl from a local radio station... Still have all of those too).

Right now I'm actually listening to a hi-rez vinyl-rip of "Europe '72". I can't listen to the remastered CD. Sounds different than I grew up with. Not like the vinyl at all (The original 2-disc version was a straight-transfer... Sounds just like the vinyl).
 
Palais Des Sports in Paris France on 9/20/74

That Dijon show is good but the vocals in the 2nd set are buried.
This show OTOH sounds so good that I'm playing CD1 again :music:

Very cool view from the top of that lil tower BTW but the surrounding traffic...Mon Dieu!

Just got back from hiking with the dogs and we're playing CD 1 again. I'll get to CD 2 eventually :)

Picked this record up last weekend at a record show - "Historic Dead".I had never heard of it. Not a bootleg but not an offical release either. From Avalon Ballroom late '66. Recording quality is very good for such old Dead but the record is showing it age a bit. Outside of "School Girl" I have never heard the Dead do these tunes:

Side one

"Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" (Sonny Boy Williamson) – 11:01
"Lindy" (Jab Jones and Will Shade) – 2:49

Side two

"Stealin'" (Gus Cannon and Will Shade) – 3:00
"The Same Thing" (Willie Dixon) – 12:01

Apparently there is another record "Vintage Dead" from the same time period. I will probably seek that out as well.

Stealin was good. Interesting album - not real mind blowing performance but interesting for the Dead collector.
 
I got my Road Trips Vol 2 No. 2 in the mail from Dead.net today.
CD1's cranking right now :music: What a freaking CRAZY Viola Lee Blues!
The Charlie Miller remaster is great but this release is awesome.
It's the best $25 (inc shipping/tax) that I've spent in a long time :yes:
