Anyone got a re-up or a solution for Disc 3? I've downloaded twice and not been able to unzip...

Man, Brokedown fucking dragged for me, but Cumberland is pure goodness.

Really? I thought Brokedown was pretty aight; Cumberland on the other hand is just smoking.

I was hoping for a little more out of an almost 30 minute Other One but its dragging a bit, hopefully they are saving up for a big finish.

Could just be my mood though, I'm on the impatient side of cranky today.

I'll re-up it.

I may listen to "Chinatown Shuffle" 8 or 9 times on a loop later

Jesus, this could go on a mix with The Dolls' version of 7 Day Weekend. EPIC.

I think the Diddley stuff is good...into the actual show. It is jammin.

Okay, now I just feel pity for you guys.

Really? Because while we are listening to music that we (mostly) like, you are so starved for attention that you keep popping into a thread that doesn't interest you in the least. You've even out attention whored Dalen: If I had made odds when this started he would have been the favorite, but no, it's you.

This 25th installment of the Dick's Picks series, featuring live archival Grateful Dead performances, gathers the lion's share of two consecutive shows -- May 10 and 11 -- during an extended run on the East Coast in the spring of 1978. Although modern Deadheads are generally enthusiastic about the late-'70s era of the band, the avid as well as the somewhat more critical fans often refer to 1978 as a year of transition. 1977 is so replete with undeniable energy that comparatively, the Grateful Dead began to demonstrate increasing signs of restlessness within the following months. Luckily, tape archivist David Lemieux chose not only two of the better shows from the year, but also a pair that had not fallen prey to international CD bootleggers or otherwise been widely liberated into tapers' circles. Both the set list -- with a few exceptions, such as the title suite from their most recent studio release, Terrapin Station -- and the seemingly intuitive improvisations that the Grateful Dead unleash reveal much of what remains special about the band's revival in 1976. Easily discernible are the jazz-influenced elements that musically motivated and seamlessly pair older tunes such as "Scarlet Begonias" and "Eyes of the World" with more recent material such as "Fire on the Mountain" or "Estimated Prophet," respectively. Other not-to-be missed highlights include the lilting Garcia/Hunter ballads "They Love Each Other," "Pretty Peggy-O," and a heartbreakingly poignant "Stella Blue." The immediate segue from the "Drums" section -- during the second show (May 11) -- is conspicuous due to the lack of the instrumental free-form "Space" segment that was to become a regular feature and sonic landmark during the second set of each performance. Another rarity worthy of note is the double encore on May 11 -- which includes a rollicking cover version of the under-performed "Werewolves of London." Although the band is ideally suited for the track, they only played it a dozen times.

Nice, this was on my short list as well.

This is it for the week?

Yeah, I figured with a 4 disc set, plus the fact that I think some of us were still digesting today's picks, that should cover us.
