I just saw that the FridayMusic vinyl reissue of Dead Set came out today. Sweet! Can't wait for that to get here.

"The Grateful Dead" US Warner Brothers stereo LP

About 40 minutes ago, give or take. Have since moved onto a Ten Years After LP from 1968.
 
Believe it or not,I found two cartons of what I think are genuine soundboard tapes of the Dead yesterday.Reel to reels,many on professional type tape.1969-1980.I do not currently own a reel to reel machine to test them on.All of them seem to be at Internet Archive.I was thinking of listing them on the auction site,but there seem to be copyright issues with selling these things there.I have no clue about what to do with them.If anyone has an idea,please send me a PM.

Please mods,do not remove this post.

I ordered mine from dead.net, which is what I always do...cannot swear that's the "best", but its the easiest for me!
 
Yay, it's here, and sounding quite good!

A bit softer in the high end that I thought it would be, but overall very satisfying so far - have played second sets of 5/11 and 5/13.
 
Awesome looking set! :yes:

I fixed the art on the first post of the first page of this thread.

Here it is again if anyone would like it for desktop wallpaper or something:

I just finished listening to this.Grateful Dead Live at Jai-Alai Fronton on 1974-06-23 (June 23, 1974).Definitely one of the best shows I ever heard.
 
Hey Guys! When I saw there was a music thread here on GD, just had to come and poke around. This is the first place I've visited as a new member, I love checking out all the cool album art. I'll be hanging out here and in the Sansui section.
