Rumors are the 1980 theater shows for the box set, but those are just rumors at this point.Any news on what this years box set or Dave's Pick 39 will be?
I don't have the vinyl, but have had the CD for years. It's one of my least favorite shows of the era that have been officially released. It's a tentative and a little soundchecky feeling. The highlights are the debut of Scarlet Begonias, China>Rider, the WRS, and the palindrome (Playing>UJB>Dew>UJB>Playing). While all are worthy of a listen or two, none are the definitive versions for this era. As much as it isn't a great vinyl show, if you want 74 on wax I'd pick up the Portland show. The jam segment on the Portland set is special. Should br considerably cheaper as well.Anyone have Dick's Picks 24? Worth the secondary market asking price? Have seen some mixed things on this one, but it is my favorite era of the Dead and was wondering how it sounded. Thanks!
just a head's up that i just posted some dead, including portland 74, in the sale thread, in case @Colonel4Bin is interested. I concur that portland is better overall of 74 but there's lots of good stuff in 74 e.g. atlanta:I don't have the vinyl, but have had the CD for years.

The sticker is a nice touch. I’ve bought a few beat up copies of the original hoping to land one, but never with any success.50th Anniversary of Skull & Roses arrived today. Sounds and looks way better than my well worn used version. Appreciate that they even included the sticker that came with it.

Saw that too, bummer! Hopefully it's just pushed back until Black Friday, or released on its own.Looks like JGB was removed from RSD.

Mine never showed active on USPS. Status was USPS waiting for package, and then went right to delivery today. Hopefully yours will show up soon.I received shipping notification on mine but it doesn’t register as active.
