Grateful Dead - May 1977: Get Shown The Light (2017)
"MAY 1977: GET SHOWN THE LIGHT is a collection of what is unanimously believed to be the most sought-after previously unreleased complete shows the Grateful Dead ever played. Collected, traded, and debated for decades, "the beloved Golden Trinity" of Boston, Ithaca, and Buffalo, along with their New Haven prelude, have inspired fans to "get on the bus," converted critics, and even garnered national attention (Cornell was added to the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry). But until now, you've never really heard them quite like this!
The Dead is in the details... how serendipitous is it that the notorious Betty Cantor-Jackson soundboard recordings were returned to the archive just in time for the 40th anniversaries of these shows? Lovingly sourced from these well-reputed recordings, we invite you to experience four utopian shows just like they happened, to "be inside the music" as engineer Betty Cantor-Jackson intended. Whether you listen to each night on its own or imbibe the whole lot at once, we suspect you'll hear why every note mattered. Much like we were, you will be hard-pressed to determine which of these fine documents - will it be the understated but nuanced New Haven, Boston's festive fantasy vibes, the monumental catharsis of Ithaca, or Buffalo’s dreamy exuberance - is truly "the best." Does it really matter? We think not."

ReplyDeleteJust so full of Awesome, thanks Jooge
ReplyDeleteJust fantastic! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this. I'm downloading the flac now.
ReplyDeleteSo very humbled by Jooge's gracious nature, sharing such hard-to-get and incredible music. Though I have a SBD and a few rather good AUDs from the early May '77 run, I yearn for Get Shown the Light mastered from the unparalleled Betty boards. But though the link gets you to where the goods should be, the files have apparently been removed. Any chance of re-posting? I'd be among the many ever so appreciative.
ReplyDeleteIt appears that the link no longer works
ReplyDeleteThe FLAC torrent still works. You can download that and convert them yourself.
DeleteI'm stupid I don't know how to do that,I clicked on the flac link I downloaded it but it was just text file not really sure what to do with it,but thanks anyway maybe I can find it somewhere else this and Spring 1990 are Basically all I need to complete my library I had issues with the link for spring 90 I downloaded them but I couldn't get them to play,but I will Say you are awesome for all the work you have put into this thank you so much I'm forever GRATEFUL
Delete@jooge - Do these downloads still work? They seem to be timing out for me.
ReplyDeletejust got this box, thank you very much
ReplyDeleteThanks, but cant get any files
ReplyDeleteAs others have stated the link appears to be messed up, I've tried in browser and with JDownloader and it just downloads one track from the Boston show.
ReplyDeleteMr. Jooge? Please help.
ReplyDeleteCan you please reupload the flac files?🙏 Only one file is there and all are removed. This is a very essential box set for a Deadhead.
