Grateful Dead Live at Delta Center on 1995-02-19

by Grateful Dead

Publication date: 1995-02-19 ( check for other copies)

Topics: Live concert

Collection: GratefulDead

Band/Artist: Grateful Dead

Resource: DeadLists Project

Jack Straw, Sugaree, Walkin' Blues, Alabama Getaway*, Me & My Uncle**-> Big River**, Don't Ease Me In (40 mins) China Cat Sunflower-> I Know You Rider, Samson & Delilah, If The Shoe Fits, New Speedway Boogie, Estimated Prophet-> Drums-> Space-> I Need A Miracle-> Attics Of My Life-> Johnny B. Goode, E: It's All Over Now Baby Blue (114 mins)

Notes

- average audience recording without much low end. moderately intrusive crowd noise.
- d2>d3 transition now seamless.
- d/o at end of IKYR removed using soundforge 5.
- originally tracked on 3 discs, this one easily fits on 2 80 minute discs. Some may find the break in If Shoe Fits > NSB aesthetically unpleasing. - compendium doesn't list this transition as being present, but there is no clear pause in the music between the two songs, just a sharp break, which i've tracked accordingly.

It's so funny to read these reviews about how worked up we all got 17 years or so ago when the GD legal side stopped allowing sbds to be downloaded off the archive. Now, it matters zero. We all listen to the sbds more than ever and I don't think any of us has had to Tooele up to K-mart in our 2000 Ford Explorer to buy a spool of 100 cdrs and a sharpie on God knows how long to do it. We rest in peace. But really, I came here to find long lost diamonds in the 95 rough so lemme get back to work....

Subject: Good show, Bad recording

This is a great Dead show for 1995, but horrible recording.

Subject: Its all about the music and the love. End of story.

To all who complain abouthe whole sbds stopping and what not. Who cares!! When u saw your first Dead show, you didnt care about that stuff. You found a new kind of love and kinship that isnt found many other places beside the lot,in the show, or on the road. Its all about the music and the love!!!!What would Jerry say? Come guys u know what I mean. Cant we just share and remember and celebrate whats happening now. Their not gonna be here forever.
Peace and Jerry Grease:\

Subject: Attics shines through

I don't often give shows 1 stars...actually, I don't think I ever have. After all, it's the Grateful Dead we're talking about! Their songwriting skills and musical ability should prevent any shows from getting one star.

This one almost got did.

I chose this show because 2-21-95 is actually pretty good, so I thought maybe the whole Salt Lake City run would be decent. I was wrong. This show is so bad the whole way through. The show is plodding and sleepy. Jerry's voice is awful, and both he and Bobby are in and out vocally and lyrically. Every song is so messy, especially Estimated, which might be the worst ever.

Attics, however, gave me a brief break from the awful-ness of the rest of the show. It's not a top-10 or anything, but it's decent. Actually the encore Baby Blue is okay, too.

Do yourself a favor and avoid this show.

Guys,
I agree that this whole "taking back" of these SBD's for download is a bummer, but to wish the people that were a part of making this music so special should "Go To Hell" is a little harsh, and very out of spirit with the whole GD ethos. Look, all these recording are out there. Just b/c you can't get 'em here anymore, doesn't mean that the thousands of copies that were downloaded or in people's hands before this whole archive existed, aren't still available. It is analogous to putting a drop of dye in a pool and then trying to get it back, it's impossible. Once it's out there, it's out there forever. Instead of wishing Weir and Mickey go to hell, why don't you guys spend that energy trying to find folks that already have these shows downloaded and send them some blank CD's? Try making friends with some folks instead of making Bob Weir your enemy. Wouldn't that make more sense? Just a thought.

Streaming music compromise? hmmm...I just bought my last ever Dead CD at my local music store a few months ago and didn't realize it till now.

Reviewer: Trannyman - - December 16, 2005
Subject: More download thoughts

To the one head below who thinks Jerry would distribute GD soundboards for free when he was still with us....... No way.

The heads always had lots of boards, as they got patched off to a couple of heads on some nights. But, to mass distribute the soundboards would have violated every contract they had, including every time they played a tune written by somebody else.

The cool thing about yanking the SBDS? I discovered the Oade Brothers fine work from the 80's. I compared my 9/3/85 board with their audience and the Oade Bros win going away.

Regarding Bobby and Phil- Bobby did seem to be confused by the whole thing in that interview, but he knows the GD Store and ITunes have plenty of space for downloads and profits. Phil put his P&Friends DSBDS right up here shortly afterwards. So he obviously doesn't need to sell-em. I guess if it were up to him, he would have left the Dead SBDS up here.

Subject: zzzzzz

sorry about that. I nodded off during Vince's portion of Alabama getaway. Originally from New england I always remembered the boys ripping an Alabama Getaway at hartford or Worcester. Was stoked to hear they brought it back, but listening to this just makes me sad. rest of the show is typical 95.

My 2 cents on dowloads. I have no problem with them holding soundboards, however, why wasn't this
the original stance? Then to back peddle and blame this website for jumping the gun is bush. Also, I paid 39.99 to the dead for the Terrpain Station CD where the proceeds were suppose to go to build a place for heads to obtain any concert from their history. Can anyone tell me where that cash went? I'd love to know.

Subject: SELL OUTS BOBBY & MICKEY

I am a 20 year dead fan have been for about 6 years and i was never lucky enough to see the boys in action . But what is goin on with this bullshit I was tought that the music is free and would always be free thats what seperates the dead from every other band and now they are just another money makin nobodies and I know that Phil would never do this it is all abobby and mickeys fault for sellin something that means everything to me I hope they both go to hell. Im sorry to you other reviewers but what do think jerry would do I KNOW HE SAY FUCK U BOB & MICK

Reviewer: aint no time to hate - - December 6, 2005
Subject: I agree

i agree with Trannyman...nothing in life is free. and like trannyman said, any smart deadhead would support that decision to pull downloads. dont be afraid to pull a few dollars out of your budget to aquire some good, classic, fun-loving grateful dead. ive never gotten into a show for free, so why start now? same premise...these shows are whats left of what was a dynasty. cherish them, and be glad you even have all this wonderful access to soo many amazing shows. and i want to give thanks to all the uploaders for making this all possible. thanks guys.

It's amazing to hear the audience sing along. If anything, they sound like they are keeping it real. I can feel the energy of the audience and it is so intense that it might of thrown them off hear and there, but I love the sound of the Delta Center, it really makes ya feel like your there. Somewhere the reocording fades in and out, but that just put a smile on my face. I like that song Phil sings. Some of the harmonies, like at the end of I China Rider, it was bliss for a moment, and if a show has a bliss moment, then it was worth the grime.

Subject: Delta Center Sucks

Haven't actually heard this show, but was there and its not much to look at. The acoustics of the delta center suck! Third night I was behind the stage and was really bummed when jerry screwed up the lyrics and was looking right at the teleprompter. Truly the beginning of the end! :(
