Dick's / Dave's picks

Checked Tidal the other night. Seems most Dead stuff is on it . . . complete Dick's Picks, Road Trips, Download Series, Europe '72 series, etc., as well as original studio albums and Complete Studio Collection, Fare Thee Well, and Red Rocks, though no Dave's Picks.

I wanted to listen to Fillmore 1969, but my fat finger hit Dick's Picks #36. Philadelphia 9/21/72. Huh? My first Dead show? I knew it was 1972, but didn't remember the exact date. Checked my ticket stub . . . Yup! Serendipity? Then, I relived it. Thank you Tidal!

Also, Live Music Archive is available on my Squeezebox Touch . . . Dead recordings sorted by year. 2000+ shows? Not in MY lifetime! HAHA!

BTW, that was 2,000 recordings, not shows. Multiple variations.

Great stories and info All-

any of you guys get the complete 78 set ?

Anyone rockin' the 78 set?

Hello Jafant - I received my 78 Red Rocks box set and I must say that I was not impressed. You will note that I have and can say with conviction every disc / box set and current subscriptions issued for and by the Grateful Dead .....and this box set is NOT one of my favorites. The Europe 72 to give you a reference point is still my favorite as that was the Grateful Dead. They must have doing massive amounts of cocaine at these shows and at that time I do believe they were as the music's tempo is totally jacked up.....each song ends on the same type of crescendo....and Donna ought to have been shot for ruining  each song with her off key singing ...no screaming on this tour.  Bobby was not that far behind.  Naaaw......not my favorite and the songs and set list were very predictable. I saw them in 78 .....but don't remember .
