About 2 months ago a fellow member of this list and many other Zep sites sponsored me into a community of Grateful Dead fans and collectors. This community (CDead) is about so much more than just collecting live Dead/related shows and this group has much more of a family communal vibe than most of the other band related communities currently out there. A big part of it is the fact that the members of this group are so into helping each other out in terms of anything and everything. One of the things that I really think is cool about this group is the fact that they have a series of DVD archive vines running at all times and anyone who is a member of the group can sign up for one of these vines. Basically the vines consist of chronological archives of every Grateful Dead show that currently circulates. These vines consist of DVD-R's of the shows in Flac format. The sizes of these vines range from 11 DVD's to 40 DVD's. What I'm proposing is that we all work together, pull our resources and put together a master archive of every release for every show and vine them together as the "For Badgeholders Only Master Archive Series"
My thoughts are that we start with the first show 12-28-68 Gonzaga. I currently have a CDR(1) of Lifetime Guarantee (Empress Valley) which from what I understand is out of print. I have a list of some other releases of this show.
Gonzaga ’68 (Capricorn)
Gonzaga ’68 (So Fucking What)
Zeppelin Digital 5
Live At Gonzaga (No Label)
If any of you have Silvers of these releases and would like to contribute to the first vine of this series please let me know. I don't want to go further than a CDR(1) copy because the point of this tree is to get everyone good clean extractions of everything.
I'd definitely love to hear any thoughts on ways to make this better, get it started etc...
