" The " Groundbreaking ! & Unprecedented !! 2005 Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. Box Set ( + Bonus Disc ) release ... of the " Entire " Winter '69 run of Shows - at The Fillmore West !!!!! Wow !!!!!!! " The " Breath-taking Grateful Dead Fillmore West 1969 " The Complete Recordings " Box Set !!!!!!! Arguably ... ' Unmatched ' in its " Good Ol' Grateful Dead " Pigpen Prime-Era Sonic ! & Collectible !! Awesomeness !!! I mean ... you know how sometimes in life someone says something to you, and you can never-ever forget just exactly what they said - and where/when they said it ? Well ... back in the Early-90's I was hanging out before a Show at the Oakland Coliseum, and began to get in to one of those " real-long " ( & super-enjoyable ! ) serious conversations about Dead Shows. There were two guys - long-time Deadheads I was rapping with and one of them did pretty much all of the talking for the pair ... talking about this show, that show, this set, that set, this Garcia-lick, this Phil-bomb, Weir stage-charging with Head-kicks, etc. ( Hah ! ) And, it almost felt something like the movie " Clerks ! " ... you know what I mean ?! The " Other Dude " was pretty much ' silent ', and really said nothing at all the whole time - and then ... all of a sudden he chimed in & spoke ... and the quote was simply-legendary ( & Classic ! ) ... " I really just listen to '69 Dead ". Whoa !!!?!!!!! You know ?!! One of the more Classic & Fabulous ! Dead Show " lot-comments " I have ever heard on the topic at hand ... " America's Best Ever Live-Band !!! ". Thought you might appreciated this story from yesteryear ... right ? ' How ' Excellent ..... So yeah. As this most definitely provides a very fine segue to the " Topic " here at hand ... " The " Monumental ! 2005 Grateful Dead Productions release of ... " Grateful Dead Fillmore West 1969 The Complete Recordings Box Set !!! ". And, on to the nitty gritty of this ' Unmatched ' 1969 Pigpen-Era Dead " Prime-Period " pro audio release. Firstly, this is one of the only 10,000 Box Sets made in the Limited Edition fashion ... " No. 8168 " !!! And Secondly, this is one of the Extremely Rare Box Sets which also includes the " Bonus Disc " ( the 11th Disc ! ) featuring ultra-rare tracks from 6/1968 - 6/8/1969 & 2/7/1970 ' Live ' at the Fillmore West ( aka. The Carousel Ballroom ). And Thirdly ... the 10-CD Box Set portion itself obviously features the Fillmore 1969 " Complete " recordings ... so inside of this Box Set you receive Four ( 4 ) individual ( internal ) Complete-Show Disc Sets, including every single note played during the consecutive Winter '69 Fillmore West Shows >>> 2/27/1969 - 2/28/1969 - 3/1/1969, and 3/2/1969 - 2-CD, 3-CD, 2-CD, and 3-CD Sets respectively. And now ... Fourthly, Finally & Fabulously ! --- The Music !!! And, my oh My ! is this Extremely-Rare Set an Absolute Beast ! of a Live-Dead Heater !! The overwhelming reality on this set is that these are the Garcia " Gibson Guitar " days and the tone achieved is crunch-fuzzy, nasty & viscous when Jerry chooses to be in full-attack-mode. And also when he wants, you are treated to the subtle & sweet tones on the flip-side. And too ... you also get the best of ' both ' worlds as the Acoustic-guitar gets strapped-on for Mountains Of The Moon - twice ! Phil plays Unbelievably ! all-throughout this run - and hard-pushes the Band to & through virtually each & every jam pocket - as you can most certainly hear his Classical Music influences with ease, as they are brilliantly entwined in the essence of Good Ol' Psychedelic Hard Jamming ! ... in that one-of-a-kind Late '60's G.D. " take no prisoners " style & fashion. While not to forget that Bobby is becoming quite the rhythm-guitar player right around this time - and as a result the string-section is indeed becoming a 3-headed Monster ! that cannot be stopped !! B.K. & Mick are just about at a ' Perfect ' dual-drummer perfection, and when the timings run-around ( which they do quite a bit in this era ), these guys just never loose a step ! Also, T.C.'s tones ( and background ' fills ' ) are also what make this particular G.D. Era so incredibly " trademark " in its sound - along with Garcia's Gibson-tones - the Crazy ! song-material -- and of course last but not least ... Pigpen !!! - basically in his vocal, creative & delivery " Prime " ! Rough & tumble stuff that is so insanely-tight that you could easily call it " Provocative Rock & Roll Beauty " !!! It should also be noted from a historical sound-recording perspective, that ' selecting ' this run for release was almost a ' no-brainer ' for the Grateful Dead. Not only because of the caliber of the Band's performances over a straight 4-Show stretch ... but also because Warner Bros. provided them a state-of-the-art ( massive ! ) recording console which allowed the recordings and subsequent mixes & mastering to be just about as close to perfection, as perfection can ever get. Hence, the reason that these sessions were also ' immediately ' used in the " Live Dead " Live/Studio hybrid release later in 1969. This Very Rare 11-CD Box Set ( 10-CD + Bonus Disc CD ) is without any question a ' Must-Hear ' & ' Must-Own ' for any & every Grateful Dead Fan who is serious about the pin pointed ( Glorious ! ) " Pre-1972 " period of the Band's Live development. So hey, thanks so much for taking the time to listen - and most importantly of all ... Enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!
