Mr. Heartbreak Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Getting ready to have a listening party with another one of my composite best of the year compilations. This time its 1982. As always the goal is to recreate a semblance of a given show for that year, trying to make it all highlights or peak performances, taking liberties to make it a bit longer than they actually played, but still trying to stay somewhat close to something they might have actually played in setlist and sequence, etc. Here's what i finally came up with: Mississippi Half Step > 8-3-82 KCFranklin's Tower 8-3-82 Minglewood Blues 8-3-82 They Love Each Other 4-14-82 Glenn Falls, NYIts All Over Now 4-6-82 PhillyBig Railroad Blues 8-3-82On The Road Again 8-10-82 IowaBIODTL 8-10-82Stagger Lee 8-10-82Mama Tried 4-6-82Candyman 4-6-82Lazy Lightning 8-6-82 St. PaulJackaroe 4-6-82Music Never Stopped 7-31-82 Manor Downs, TXChina Cat>Rider 10-10-82 Frost Shakedown Street 8-3-82Samson 8-3-82Playin'> 10-10-82Crazy Fingers 10-10-82Sailor>Saint 10-10-82Terrapin 4-6-82The Wheel 10-10-82GDTRFB 9-17-82 Portland MaineMorning Dew 4-6-82Sugar Magnolia 10-10-82 Satisfaction 10-10-82All Over Now Baby Blue 10-10-82 Any glaring omissions or better versions of songs listed? https://archive.org/details/gd82-04-06.sbd-patched.wiley.16785.sbeok.shnf https://archive.org/details/gd82-04-14.sbd.braverman.7629.sbeok.shnf https://archive.org/details/gd82-07-31.sbd.martinson.3419.sbeok.shnf https://archive.org/details/gd1982-08-03.sbd.miller.77196.sbeok.flac16 https://archive.org/details/gd1982-08-06.sbd.miller.118462.flac16 https://archive.org/details/gd1982-08-10.sbd.miller.102577.flac16 https://archive.org/details/gd1982-10-10.sbd.fixed.miller.110783.flac24 How about Alabama Getaway>Greatest Story, West LA, and Throwin’>Touch from 10/09?

winterland121072 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 morning dew 9 17 1982 is best of year in my opinion (and it is out of hte gdtrfb) Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Listening to 4/29/71 -- probably for the 1,342nd time -- probably not that much, but I have probably have listen to this show more than any other. The Loser always gets me, so great. Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Have a friend looking for a a download/copy of last DP's (Albuquerque) if anyone has it.....Should be able to get it uploaded to dropbox tonight. It will be in iTunes format. Link to post Share on other sites
Shug Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 How about Alabama Getaway>Greatest Story, West LA, and Throwin’>Touch from 10/09? All great.Yeah, you could have a whole 'nother '82 show with no repeats. I preferred all those new songs after they had developed for a few years, though. Early versions were a bit too proto- basic for my tastes but they were kinda funky and different that what many of us heard so many times and I get why some people dig the early versions. I also re-checked out the Dew from 9-17 and I think I prefer the one from Philly 4-6, its got a bigger peak at the end. The one from Portland gets really quiet but it never really comes back to the big crescendo that for me makes a Dew great. Maybe its a cleaner version? Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate 'em!

Lammycat Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Yeah, you could have a whole 'nother '82 show with no repeats. I preferred all those new songs after they had developed for a few years, though. Early versions were a bit too proto- basic for my tastes but they were kinda funky and different that what many of us heard so many times and I get why some people dig the early versions. I liked 82-83 versions of Touch a lot more than the'87-onward versions. Pretty much the opposite with Throwing Stones (late 80s versions were really good, dran ot, and intense.

Lammycat Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I notice you have a lot of 10.10.82 Frost in there (as it's an excellent show), but not that scorcher Minglewood opener! Link to post Share on other sites
Shug Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I notice you have a lot of 10.10.82 Frost in there (as it's an excellent show), but not that scorcher Minglewood opener!Thanks, I will go back and listen again. The 8-3 Minglewood is also hot hot hot! Sometimes with these choices, its about the transitions between songs on a given recording. When its played loud, little imperfections can become huge jolts, so sometimes I try to do a few songs from the same recording to try to minimize those. But performance with great sound quality is the main determining factor, so I love hearing what people suggest, so thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
i'm only sleeping Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 The Going Down the Road Feelin' Bad in the new DP26 is the hottest I've heard so far. What a sandwich with NFA and what a sound, wow!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 New JGB, 5/20/1990, Hilo Civic Auditorium, Hawaii.The highlight for me is "Tough Mama", the Dylan tune from Planet Waves. I've always loved that tune and its great to hear Jerry take a swing at it. Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I have had the new JGB Hilo cd on hold at my library since it was released - looking forward to listening. Some libraries in my system have a policy of not sharing new releases and the one library that has it is one of them - it shows it's available to check out, too - I blame Trumpism.

roadhse ma Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Mayer posted the following on instagram last nightIt moved the needle on my Mayer is Ok Meter The night before a new Dead&Co tour is always deeply felt. I wish I was going to a Grateful Dead concert tomorrow. I wish I was dancing with my friends while we listened to Jerry and the band play. But it’s the honor of a lifetime to convert my love for this music into the further telling of this beautiful, timeless story with some of its brilliant authors. I’m like anyone else who was ever moved by this music, who was discovered by it, and not the other way around. My love for the Grateful Dead is immense, but not extraordinary. I am in that crowd. Just represented from the stage. And I think of Jerry Garcia and his intentions with every song we play. I’m only there so that on my best of nights, you might get to him.
