Official Grateful Dead Thread

[LeeVing]

I've only gotten into the Dead within the last few years, and have a lot of there albums. But I seem to listen to the solo albums and side projects more often...mostly Rhythm Devils and Diga Rhythm Band.

Listening to Merl Saunders "Fire Up" right now. Nice....

I was happy to find the Rhino remaster of "Workingman's Dead" in the mailbox yesterday afternoon.

It's definitely on my to-do list for today.

Did you do?

Long my favorite Dead which makes it one of the best releases in music ever.

Listening to Winterland 1973: The Complete Recordings-----------------Grateful Dead

CD I.

Listened to CD IX yesterday.

 

[ScramMan2]

If you like the spin-off groups check out Billy K's latest venture. 7 Walkers. Album is the same name. Cajun/blues sound.

Been listening to So Many Roads all morning.

Great set!

I'm playing that Carousel Ballroom Feb. 14, 1968 show again, in the car this time

Read this review here then get it here or stream it here.

You owe it to yourself if you like live Dead.

Did you do?

I certainly did, Mowgli, but I do believe it will require multiple listenings to be fully appreciated. That's my plan anyway. :thmbsp:

What amazed me during this period was how a poor studio offering (TERRAPIN STATION ) could be such strong live material.
