Dave is 'driver' of record selling industry same as if Alan Greenspan would be for stock market.
I take him as reference, but never actually cared about ANY of those so far. 
I'm also looking forward to the Dave's Picks Felt Forum show. I have an MP3 soundboard of the 12/7/71 show, the Smokestack Lightning is pretty amazing. 
Guys-

DP #21 does not disappoint. The band was really "on" this date in question. Very good to excellent recording and excellent presentation.

Do any of you dislike a Dick's or Dave's Pick? If so, why?

I’m not a fan at all of Dicks’ Picks 32 (Alpine Valley 8-7-82)

The mix is just as bad as can be. Almost unlistenable.

Save your $$ on DP32 folks

CM just released a newer version that is far superior (SBD > Casstette Master > Dat 44.1k) He said he got it from either Rob Eaton or Gans

*Healy’s masters following Betty’s departure are generally a crap shoot"


Also, I’m not into the Dick’s Picks that have multiple shows (highlights) in one single volume. I’m sure some do appreciate it, but it’s very annoying to me. I’m glad Dave does complete shows (so far)
