Dead Fans !!! Talk about a G.D. Treasure from yesteryear ? It doesnt get much more exciting than this for our ears - when comes to those " What are the Chances ? " situations. I mean Wow !?! Do you know the story on this monumental release ? I hope you do ... but if not - heres the skinny .. .. .. So, right after Keith & Donna Godchaux joined the band - in 71, Garcia went into the Vault - or, someone went in there for him ... and grabbed these Master Soundboard Reel-To-Reels from the Summer 71 ( August ) period ... and gave them to Keith. Why ? Well, to listen & learn how to blend into the Grateful Dead - as the newest band member ... pure G.D. style, right ? A pure crash-course on learning how to apply the Keys in various ways for the material that was fresh, and in the current live rotation. So Keith accepted, took all of those offered - and started listening & learning away. Well, that was in late 71 .... so here we were close to 35-years later, and there is no sign or trace of a fairly-large chunk of this era ( August 71 ) in the Vault - and no one on the inside has really any clue about the whereabouts ? So ... in 2005 --- ( now, check this out !!?! ) ...... Donna calls up the G.D. Office ( as the story goes ... ), and says that there were a bunch of G.D. marked Reel-To-Reels that were found on Keiths parents Houseboat !!! So in no time ... these things were All ! back to their rightful place in the Vault, and were carefully inspected - listened to, checked-out, I mean you name it ! To date, this was an unmatched " Return " of quintessential G.D. Live Shows to the Vault .. .. .. and Thankfully !! for the Dead Fan Faithful, hence this release. This one is a dandy, not only performance & energy wise, but the story surrounding it really cant be topped. Three Cheers for Donna-Jean ! And Keiths folks too, for not discarding his toys after decade passes decade - like many parents likely would ! Beyond a treasure - really ... As on this 4-CD Set, you are treated to the entire 8/7/71 San Diego, CA Show at Golden Hall. In addition, you also receive a good portion of the 8/24/71 Show from Chicago, IL at the Auditorium Theatre. And last, but definitely ! no least ... you are also the ( very proud ! ) recipient of a nice-chunk ( Bonus Tracks ) from the Monumental !!! 8/6/71 Show at the Hollywood Palladium in Hollywood, CA. So Yeah ?!! As it truly goes without saying ... this 4-CD Set here ( in the form of DP #35 ! ) is a Must-Have release ! This is rough & ready Powerhouse 71 G.D., and these performances selected, as I understand - were truly the best of the best available in this " Find ". The sound is truly Amazing, with true consideration of the conditions that these tapes were living - I mean you cant even tell, with this pristine digital remastering ! Big credit to Keiths Parents ... as really, both them & Donna are the reason this happened for all of us. DP #35 ... an Audio chance here in the New Millennium that none of us might have ever had otherwise. Sometimes in life ... things just have a chance of working out ! And here ... Big Time !!! Enjoy this " Houseboat " G.D. Treasure from the Summer of 1971 !!!!!
