the RFK show is an official release as well part of box set. 10-18-74 is part of the GD Movie cd set. Both box sets are very well done and worth the price.

Do you have any favorite shows you'd like to hear again?

I have another drive that has every show that has circulated from every year and picked out the best sounding ones. It was a massive task. I believe its a hard drive that many a deadhead would love to have.

My friend and I decided to curate all the official Grateful Dead live recordings. There are 349 separate sub folders which are in performance date order. Choosing just one would be difficult. I'll try to. Europe 72 the Complete Recordings comes to mind. My favorite show I saw in 1979 came out as...

Reconstruction (Jerry Garcia & Merl Saunders) at Keystone Palo Alto 07-07-1979 Recorded by me on a Sony TC 5 Nakamichi CM 700 mics

I spent my misguided youth taping Grateful Dead shows and collecting tapes of other shows. I collected so many for so long, it took until my retirement to start listening. 95% of my listening is GD or related (Jerry Garcia is the other 4%).

I have Widex Moment 220's. And they are life changing.

I've never heard one note of a Taylor Swift song. I am what is known as a deadhead and have avoided pop music since the 70's.

I have been using Widex Moment 220's for about a week now. They are really good. The setting for music really works.

I am now on my 3rd pair of hearing aids. Beginning of 2018 I had an ear infection which I didn't get taken care of soon enough. My first impression for hearing aids in general, it was like hearing through your own personal p.a. system Music wasn't very smooth. I got a second pair about a year...

Outlaw RR 2160 receiver is a consideration

I'm listening to the Grateful Dead live at the Warfield Theater 02-17-1982 ( I like to live in the past ). It is a field recording from the front of the loge dead center. With headphones and speakers simultaneously, I'm transported back there. I was at this show. Front row dead center in the...

I'm listening to the Grateful Dead from the Marin Veteran's Memorial Auditorium in San Rafael, Ca. 03-31-1984. 2200 seat theater shaped like a speaker . There were 4 shows and we were dead center for all of them. We were in row 8-11 for the shows. We were at the same height as the stage. It was...

Grateful Dead at Manor Downs 8-31-1985. 1985 was a very good year!

I saw the real thing in Las Vegas in 1981 and again in 1984. The Aladdin Theater (RIP) Can't stand songs played at the half the speed they used to be.

I made audience tapes for years. And here is the scoop. Imagine you are in the 15th row dead center on the floor at a big arena. Madison Square Garden would be a good example. You have a pair of Nakamichi microphones and a Sony D5M (and you use the dolby B feature. You know how to set levels and...

The Fillmore East 1971 boards were made clandestinely. A feed from the snake fed a mixing console in the basement. A real musician with credentials mixed them in real time. The band of course had the truck outside the theater doing the recordings that ended up on skull and roses. I think they...

I'm listening to the GD show from Portland from June 12, 1980 It was the night Mt. St. Helen's blew up at the same time the band was playing Fire on the Mountain There was weird energy around the 2nd set. I think the band knew it happened before they came out for the second set. My tape was...

The first song of the show is always a little rough. Its being mixed in real time. Fortunately, the mixes were improved very quickly.
