Dick's / Dave's picks

@peter_s I can't recall where I read it recently but Phil Lesh talked about what it was like playing under the air pressure of the wall of sound. I think it absolutely changed their experimentation.

Re previous post above... I also read a great description of a tube amp where the reviewer said that turning up the volume didn't so much increase the sound level, instead it increased the expansiveness of the sound stage and filled out the detail. 

That at resonated with me.

"Whom owns the Cornell tapes/masters ?"

jafant,
Here are a couple links to read about the storage locker(s) story...

Sounds like the last batch of the Betty Bords from the storage locker has been acquired and the tapes are being worked on, as of two years ago (?). This MUST include the early May ’77 shows... 

I don't think is waiting for a special occasion to release them, its probably more so getting the tapes cooked and cleaned, transferred, then mastered and then releasing in the order they feel fit. haha... 

Much Thanks! jriggy

Just to stir the pot, am I really the only one here voting for Dick's #8? C'mon folks! It's knee buckling tasty!  ;)
