Live Trax Vol. 51: Post-Gazette Pavilion

[SeanMH]

im passing on this LT

[DMBlunts]

I went to the show so I went ahead and bought it along with the poster.
Excited to have both...at the end of the day it's another DMB live release and I have enjoyed just about every one I have ever owned...maybe except Hollywood Bowl 2018.

Let’s move this release date up! Help with the coronavirus quarantine blues.

The surround mix at least will resolve those issues, have never compared folding down the surround > stereo because the surround is lossy but it would certainly result in a different stereo mix and would be more dynamic for sure.

It would be great if for every show they have to cancel this year, they should release a live album instead. LT51 fills in for the Byron Bay Bluesfest.. now they need to release LT52 & LT53 in lieu of Melbourne & Sydney. BottleRock cancellation is imminent... better prepare LT54!

If this sat on the shelf for years, then dump everything on us as a LT. Like they did for the original 5 DMBLive releases. They must have a queue of mixed shows.

I imagine that's where LT 50 came from as well. A vault of mixed shows, some fan favorites, others management picks. There are a few that pop up over the years that feel like place fillers plucked off a shelf from previous mixes (LT 35, 26, 42, etc)

Grateful Dead have a 15 CD, multi show boxset coming out Friday, a DMB set like this would be SO epic!

26 is a great release, definitely shouldn't be considered a place filler, IMO

I think we will see more of this stuff after the band retires. Can’t give us all the gems at once. They gotta keep this thing rolling for years to come.

I miss two-three night stands being released as a LT. They should go back to that. They could also release one of the Caravan stops as a box set. Like the Randall’s Island caravan stop.

I remember set watching on these boards back in summer ‘07, and having my eyes glaze over whenever American Baby Intro —> AATW would close a show. Less than 13 years later, I’m looking forward to ABI —> AATW from this release when ABI has only been played full band full length 3 times in those 13 years. And this is a Roi show.

wouldn't been a fine choice if it weren't mixed inside a tin can

abi...>aatw was a turning point for me--it was when I realized that leaving early to beat the traffic actually was a great idea and very rarely would burn you

[ToySoldier#34]

I would like ABI - AATW but it depends on the amphitheater, it's debatable if #40 - SUAD - Two Step is worth the 2+ hour wait in the Mansfield parking lots

The guitar sounds so electrified.

It sounds like that on the tape too. Probably an amp setting, it sounds cool I think.

That’s why 2010 versions sound so different, I don’t like them as much.

I listened to LT 42 version to compare and it sounds similar, but not quite as "power-chordy" to my untrained ear, more just that full 12-string sound.

I like the more 'strummy' sound of the 2000 version of LT 16.

Actually now that I’m listening to it again, I can hear Dave’s guitar, it just sounds like a regular acoustic. Even on LT42, when Dave screws up and keeps playing you hear the acoustic at the end. Someone else is making that electric sound, maybe Stefan?

I still think that's Dave. When he strums muted strings you can clearly hear it's distorted.

[YankeesDMB41]

I always thought the 2007 tour sampler had an electric guitar on it....for years. Go re-listen. It sounds exactly like this.

[YankeesDMB41]

If you train your ear a little bit, you can hear the acoustic now that I read what some of you wrote.....It's the new Laurel/Yanni

[TwoStep2888]

Butch used to do electric guitar sounds with his keyboards sometimes

I think the 2020 versions are the best since 2000.

That crossed my mind as well, but at other points you can hear traditional piano sounds, but maybe he's crossing back and forth.

When I first listened to that YouTube clip I went and checked on the almanac to see if Tim had maybe guested on this show.

I also looked to see if there were any 2007 Copperpot shows with this song I could compare but couldn't locate any.

It's probably just the effect on Dave's guitar. Maybe they just had it especially cranked up for this show. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[stixbradtle]

It looks like this release has now been pushed back until 5th May

[Cscottrun]

Stay was uploaded to DMB's YouTube channel (do not recall receiving a news blast on it): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zI5LzSeZmc

[Dankguitar]

That’s actually one of the best released Stays outside of Central Park

I agree, the vocal delivery is a lot better than in 2010 and it has a sax solo for the first time since 2000.
