grateful dead remasters

For all you Jerry heads, check out "How sweet it is" Great dynamics, Groovin John Kahn, soul-riddled Hammond solos, and of course Jerry Nirvana...Throw it on a SET, close your eyes and enter Jerryland..
If "like a road" dosen't make you cry...well then you just ain't human!!!

The co-producers of So Many Roads were Steve Silberman, David Gans and Blair Jackson. They're the ones who picked the tracks. It's an excellent set.

And, yes, "How Sweet It Is" is a marvellous release. The "Tears of Rage" is just gorgeous.

Danlevy, look on page 51; Dick picked them too :) Either way, it sounds great! The last track on disc 5 works on so many levels.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to what things to consider when buying a system to play primarily the Dead?

get a great 16/44 dac. don't worry bout SACD or hirez, as most of your dead will always be 16/44 (bootleg CDs). also, get a transport w/ 2 digital outs and a standalone burner (as opposed to a PC based cd burner). i've burned a few thousand discs on my rig, and w/ a good 16/44 setup, they all sound great.
otherwise, get speakers that sound great on jazz. you don't need legacy-esque 4*15" per side to make the dead sing...but you do need clarity and speed.
