Can anyone think of any other guitarist whose playing is so widely and almost completely available to his fans in the form of recordings of his concerts?

Was Led Zeppelin/Jimmy Page recorded so consistently?

Who else?

GREAT IDEA for a forum!!!the dead by far was the best band to see live. they were journeys into another dimension.sounds funny i am sure to the uninitiated but if you have been there ,you know! their studio cuts were good,bootlegs much better.but,the live experience was what they were all about

Tell me 5 or 6 rock/prog/folk-rock/psychedelic type albums from 1967-87 you like so I can get the measure of you and hook you up with 1 album that may well be the way in for you.

I think working mans dead is the only studio album worth anything.

I know what you mean, but here I am this very minute listening to 1973's Wake Of The Flood and very nice it is too - very similar to what they were doing live at that time, minus the jazzy and avant garde extemporizations.

Outstanding! I just recently realized that all of the dead shows that I have on cassette tapes in a box in my attic and then some are now available for free download. Of course it now seems obvious but I just never thought to look until I saw mention of it on your profile.

And much to my delight I found the first dead show I ever went to at the Boston Garden, September of 1982. I'm listening to it now and am getting a chill up my spine listening to Wharf Rat as I remember being there 27 years ago (at age 16) almost like it was yesterday.

I'm guessing you've never heard 'American Beauty'.

I was probably going to suggest you start with 'Live/Dead', regardless of how you answered my question!

When a cafe asks me to rustle up a few CD-Rs of music, the Grateful Dead disc is usually 70% of "Workingman's Dead", 70% of "American Beauty", plus Bertha and Not Fade Away/Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad from "Grateful Dead (1971)", Ship Of Fools and Scarlet Begonias from "From The Mars Hotel", Franklin's Tower from "Blues For Allah", China Cat Sunflower and I Know You Rider from "Europe 72", and Brokedown Palace from "Dead Set".
