    Lyceum '72 - The Complete Recordings

    Saving the Big Kahuna for the finale! If you are a fool like me these are still available at dead.net.

    Thanks to everyone who followed along & offered comments, favs & reblogs. It was a fun ride & I appreciate the feedback.

    I will have to think of another daily project at some point. Perhaps more Dead ephemera or other things in my vinyl collection.

    What can I say?

    I remember some time in the naughts downloading a grainy VHS transfer of the movie. And then a few yrs later going to the theater for Meetup at the Movies and finally seeing an official release in all of its glory. Next day this was up for pre-order and I just knew.

    I still have not been able to find Nancy's Yogurt here in New England!

    Dark Star from the Legendary Europe 72 Tour
    Rhino Records

    I cant say I have a favorite Dark Star but this one would be in close contention and this release is what turned me on to it.

    If you have checked out my pinned post, the first segment of this version is the opening segment of the 54 hour Majestic Star. I only selected the first and last segments, the others were randomized.

    Another complete show box set from a classic Europe 72 performance!

    Which Europe 72 show would you like to see get the vinyl box set treatment?

    They also released the previous night from the same venue as a box set for 2022 Black Friday RSD. I am waiting for the prices to come down a bit on that one!

    Europe 72 volume 2
    Rhino Records

    A pretty cool 4LP compilation that contains a lot of stuff that didn't make the original release including all of the big three jam vehicles... Playing In The Band, Dark Star and The Other One. A great package with awesome cover art, that really captures the look and feel of the original.

    Blues For Allah

    Sorry for the glare! The final of the MFSL 2LP 45rpm releases. One of my very favorite albums. I am hoping that this pressing lives up to the hype when I finally crack it open.

    What other albums would you like to see MFSL release in 45rpm? For me, I think Wake Of The Flood would be my choice.

    From The Mars Hotel
    Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs

    MFSL had a big controversy recently, when it came to light that most of their output is sourced from digital transfers of the master tapes versus being an all analog path.

    I enjoy the tangible experience of vinyl. I don't know if my ears and gear are good enough to tell the difference in source. What do y'all think.

    American Beauty
    Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs

    This has always been one of my favorite studio albums, so I am psyched to have this version of it.

    I also recently bought a version of this album for my daughter when she started showing some slight interest, albeit the fashion & iconography. She is into The Beatles and said she liked the harmony singing here. Hey, ya gotta start somewhere!

    Workingman's Dead
    Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs

    I was never really into MFSL releases through most of my collecting years, so I missed out on many of the Dead titles that are out there.

    I was fortunate to take an interest in these, just before the window to order one would close. This title took over a year to arrive after I ordered it. Perhaps at the height of the supply chain crisis.

    Houston Texas 11*18*1972
    Rhino Records

    Fall of 1972 brings the goods, but there seems to be a lot of issues with the tapes from that time frame. If memory serves, I think some of Bear's gear was stolen.

    So to we get a partial show release, but a monster 26 minute Playing In The Band. The cover art here is quite cool!

    Dicks Picks 19
    Rhino Records

    The only Dicks vinyl in my collection. I always debate myself whether I really need these. I walked away from a $75 new Dick 4 a few years ago. Ordered Dick 36 & was canceled. I would love to have the Harpur College show, but a day late when it came out & is stupid money now. C'est la vie!

    The back cover of this is quite beautiful. Didn't notice it before.

    Playing In The Band -> Drums -> Dark Star -> Morning Dew -> Playin!

    A special dead.net exclusive excerpt from 10/18/1972 from the St Louis box set. The 'formless reflections' vinyl is very cool looking in person and seems almost unreal in photographs.

    There is also a vinyl box with a complete show from one of the 1971 shows from this set.

    Cornell's evil twin! 😜

    Actually, there are a fair amount of heads that prefer this night. Both have their moments, but not sure I have a preference. My favorite 1977 shows are 05/19 and 09/03, which I had on cassette & both of which became Dicks Picks.

    This was a RSD release. The 05/07 Boston show will be released RSD 2023.

    A reissue of the original 1969 mix of Aoxomoxoa, which is significantly different than the more common 1971 remix. This mix was very difficult to find on vinyl and commanded a very high price. So it was nice to see the original mix get a very high quality pressing.

    Rhino Records

    This is a very cool looking release. It is from Brent Mydland's third show with the band. Weird pick for an official release as these Spring 79 shows are okay, but not great. In my opinion, the Brent era really starts to kick into gear with the Fall 79 tour.

    I only saw the Midnights once in 83. They were the opener for, what was then, a reunion of electric Hot Tuna. Unfortunately, the venue was the Philly Spectrum which is cavernous compared to the mostly smaller, more intimate venues that they mostly frequented.

    My copy is a cutout which can be seen upper right.

    Heaven Help The Fool
    Arista Records (1978)

    I took this out to photograph & thought, this must be minty because I probably have only played it a couple of times since I bought it. And then, as if I jinxed myself, I pulled out the record to see a huge scratch across one side and another pretty good ding. Will need to clean up & spin it to see if it is as bad as it looks.

    Seven in singles in the USA during the 70s often only came in a paper company sleeve, so most of the Dead's singles only had picture sleeves if they were released in other countries, usually Europe or Japan. This is an exception and the track did get regular rotation on my local FM rock stations. Gotta love the fake wood panel design.
