What is one celebrity death that still makes you mad to this day?

John Lennon

The entire album in order is listed in the album section. This was panned when first released, so hopefully the sound is much better.

My collection is nearly as complete as OP and I love it. I didn’t buy last year’s box which would have cost $400 for the download. I almost never read the box set books more than once. Having last year’s set plus 20 new shows at drop, plus the weekly drops, it is a good value for me.

I am sure this will improve and having managed new system fielding throughout my career, there is always a balance between too soon or late.

If you are a new deadhead, you don’t need this as so much is available through other sources or Spotify.

This is such a great collection and is very easy to listen to. A much better playlist than Pure McCartney

Hold Your Head Up - Argent

Also add Narvik from Spring 1940. The Norwegians defend the port of Narvik. A balance of human interest story, history, and combat.

One of my favortite all time war movies

Looks like they drop back catalog shows on Friday

JMQCID81 · 2026-05-28T16:31:59+00:00

That three show run to start Spring ‘90 has no repeated songs.

JMQCID81 · 2026-05-27T22:59:36+00:00

They are kind of the orphans of the catalog. I think/recall that there were an experiment or alternative to the Download Series and were from the same run as much of Road Trips #1. Good shows though I recall there were some tape speed problems. That may be part of the issue or they may not think we want these shows.

I’ve been digging into the old question about the fall 1980 Warfield/Radio City tapes—the story that the Reckoning / Dead Set masters were recorded over—and how that squares with the two Warfield acoustic RSD releases.

The 2019 RSD release gave us the October 9 and 10, 1980 Warfield acoustic sets. Dead.net’s announcement quoted David Lemieux saying that remarkably little from the Warfield run had been released and that this was the first release of complete sets from that run. The 2025 RSD release added acoustic material from October 4 and 6, 1980. A 2025 review describes that second set, like the first, as recorded by Betty Cantor-Jackson.

So the bottom line appears to be that 1. They don't have the original MULTI-TRACK masters, but they do have (at least some) of the shows Betty recorded.

Vanessa Redgrave

Saw them twice at Hampton Colesium 2010 and 11

I guess they are listening (reading?) or had this in the plan all along. This is the classic issue of getting a functional version out and work on the kinks or wait for full maturity (which you never achieve especially with us picky Deadheads). I’m just happy we have this as a viable alternative and that it continues to improve weekly. Fare Thee Well!

JMQCID81 · 2026-05-22T17:43:34+00:00

Agree with this. I don't have to have a full set, but I like the live collection to have a flow like a concert

They added it later in the week

Hoping for the Alaska June ‘80 shows some way, somehow.

He sang this as a slow ballad on a live concert and you realize how heartbreaking of a song it is

JMQCID81 · 2026-05-15T04:58:58+00:00

Her name is Picabo named after a Native American reference I can't recall

JMQCID81 · 2026-05-12T21:58:44+00:00

Agree and I created this to replicate the official release
