May '77 Box Set + 5/8/77 Vinyl

Cue up a dozen zoners saying 5/8 is overrated.

Anyone know how the tracks are split on the vinyl? 

Original ticket price: $6.50

Lies

Never happened

Fake news

Fake show

I thought there was no master to Cornell 5/8/77.

 

That's why its hasn't been released...til now...

 

...?

The tapes were returned 

Betty's that got back to their rightful owner.

Store must be overloaded now... 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

This is tempting, but I'll probably just wait for the leaked version.

I can't wait to hear that Buffalo show in great quality, especially Peggy-O and Comes a Time. 

vinyl's overrated

I don't know about overrated, but it's certainly over priced.

I think I'm gonna buy the vinyl.  Wy wife bought me a phono for Christmas  I said to her, "why did you do that?  Vinyl is expensive."  She just shrugged her shoulders.  Guess she's good with it.

I am very interested to hear this in it's undigitized form.  And by the way, vinyl is not overrated.  I bought the DSOTM remaster and listening to it again on vinyl was like hearing it again for the first time.

\Peace

Many people say they saw a movie with black 90's comedian Sinbad called Shazam that never existed.  

Many people say they went to this Cornell Grateful Dead show that never existed.

Be good if Cornell is finally patch free

i might sound like a custie for saying this but hearing that Row Jimmy for the first time, way back when, changed the trajectory of my life. 

if i get more than 1 copy i'll  be happy to pass them along; got to the checkout screen with a total of 4 and then it stalled when entering the cc info.

i'm assuming this is already gone for the lucky 15K that had the $$ & wanted to get it. oh well, still have excellent copies of all 4 shows (5/8/77 is in 5.1 surround sound, but it's just a little gimmicky)

I reckon all three formats sold out, can't get in. 

wonder what the quality of the downloads will  be when available on 5/5. the reason i want this is because of the outstanding sound quality & playing, and it bookends my birthday during that time in 77. twould be sweet but i aint going to lose sleep over it.

Listening to Barton off the archive app. aud with Jerry UP in the mix. 

No sleep lost. 

Damn, locked-up site!

Didn't dead.net used to be serviced by MusicToday?
Now it's a Warner Store. Same thing under a new name, or different, I wonder?

Certainly not equipped for handling this volume, checkout is overloaded.

Take my money!!!!!!!

Go to Amazon and get it.

St. Esteban>NFA>St. Esteban is just infuckingsane.  

troubador is right seems mo3 downloads will be coming on amazon. 

I know mp3 is so overrated. 

Rhino site just took over the process.

Working now, just placed successful order, go git 'em!

Cue up a dozen zoners saying 5/8 is overrated<<

 

Well done, Sir!smiley

persistence pays off. just grabbed 2 of them!

Got mine just now. 

I'm in for the vinyl set.

It is back up, just bagged Cornell.

With the GD site crashing all day; there's probably plenty left. You have to click on add to cart until you see rhino redirect; then no problem.

(((rhino redirect)))

I had a lot of problems with the Rhino site but finally got through!

>> Cue up a dozen zoners saying 5/8 is overrated.

Considering 5/8 is being billed as "the single best rock performance anywhere, anytime, by anyone,” cue me up as one of the dozen.  

Ordered 4:20 AM EST

That check out experience really sucked.

One of the worst I've seen.

Just have to laugh at the post  "GD" sales/marketing machine.

Will these CD's have no tags attached like my Europe 72?

And what tags there are, will the format be backass as well?

lol.

 

I don't think they have packaged anything as poorly as the Europe 72 tour discs.
It looked to me like it's the same artists who designed the other May 1977 box set, which is not my favorite.

Still, these 4 shows are pretty fucking amazing, and I, for one, am psyched!

Of course Cornell is overrated, that doesn't make it not incredibly good! I'm also a fan of this planegent process or whatever, pinnacle being the Winterland 77 box, which is unmatchable.

 

Got the four show box set this morning- tis payday and all. ;)

^^ I was thinking about that...

I have the Winterland 77 box set and totally love it.  Not sure that I need this one (I don't think I do).

8-27-72 should make for a nice official release.

 

Are these boards that are surfacing now the half of Betty's storage unit auction that the guy who bought them had held hostage for an insanely high ransom for years?  If so, how were they acquired and at what cost?

8/27/72 has already been released, the CD's were included in the DVD box set.

I will splurge for the May box. Those are some of the most Phil bass-slapping high in the mix shows ever. True energy. Think Phil on Scarlet. Shows in that immediate period are what i pop on when I want folks to warm up to the GD. Then I get to the early 70's Darkstars. wink The vinyl is tempting but I need a new turntable. Thanks for heads up!

Most of that list of Betty Boards already circulate. That's just a list of some shows Betty recorded; there were many more, and I think some of the ones recently recovered are not in that list.

The Cornell 9/4/78 show never happened.

Now where is my official release of the Lewiston 9/6/80 show???

These are way too expensive.

Why is everything GD a rip off these days?

These guys need the money that bad?

Dicks Picks were reasonably priced.

That said, I'm looking forward to hearing these shows, I hope the remastering is great.

I was at the New Haven Coliseum show.

 

 

 

OK, I admit I am a fucking custy and interested in the vinyl, but it is too much if it is vinyl only. Does it include digital download? Probably not...

May box payday treat for me. The site worked well today. Real easy. Initial rush is over I guess. So there are some left! i'll just drink cheap beer til then cheeky

>> The Cornell 9/4/78 show never happened.

This one's actually true. It was pretty late in the game too.

Maybe before you drop for the vinyl, know that there is a new 24 bit matrix out there for free
