The dead and dead & co have made up about 95% of my listening this year.
I broke my shoulder just before Christmas and in my decrepitude I discovered the wonder that is you tube and found myself watching show after show on that fine portal. I’ve only got a very few of their records but Amazon music has loads of live shows from all eras of the grateful dead and oodles of Dead & co not to mention Garcia and Weir solo stuff
I was in the states when Jerry died and had only a passing knowledge of them then but something happened to me after I heard the news on Yankee telly

Mine arrived today and I’ve not had a chance to go much apart from have a quick look through the stuff inside said box.  However the book is quite spectacular in itself
I may be quite busy with it for some time

the artwork?  😉

We also now have t-shirts https://helenandtheneighbourhooddogs.bandcamp.com/album/anything-that-moves

Don't know what to say really...after 4 discs. It is too much of a good thing, of course but I'm also very pleased to have it. Really well put together. Aesthetically 10/10.

Do keep us posted.  I've held back on this one for reasons I already mentioned.  I have been known to  change my mind about  things like this.

I managed to buy a copy of this pretty cheaply (there are some very fruitily priced copies being offered).

My overall impressions are summed up by this statistic on how much is written about certain albums:

1st album:4.75 pp
WWDOOH: 5.33 pp
Unhalfbricking: 5.33 pp
L&L:4.5 pp
FH: 4.75 pp
Shuffle & Go: 9.5 pp

Enough said.  Over and out.

Yes, the lure was a dubious one indeed.....but a bait I'm very grateful to have taken!  

I'm envious.  

We are talking about the same thing - the Making of Five Leaves Left?  If so you have by far the cheapest copy in the UK (by a factor of about 3).
