The Good Ol' Grateful Thread

Reckoning came in the mail today, kind of weird that there was zero press about this and Dead Set. Not even sold on .net as of right now.

Still, it’s wonderful. Cut by Bellman. Sold my OG a month ago for $75 in anticipation and am not disappointed at all.

Any indication where it was pressed? Curious if all these reissues are now done by MRP.

Not sure, I don’t really keep a tab on that sort of stuff.

Don’t see anything in the deadwax that shows a clear indication of a pressing plant - anything specific you want me to look for?

Thanks for checking. If you didnt see MRP in the deadwax then it didnt come out of there

Checked all four sides and no MRP.

They’ve kind of quietly re-released all of the Arista albums over the past year or two, which gives me the feeling that the big 50th anniversary releases may end next year with Blues for Allah as that’s the last of the WB/GD records and I doubt there’s a whole lot of demos for the Angel’s Share beyond that.

I’ve been pleased with all of the rereleases so far.

Looks like the four recent reissues are up on dead.net now, but all just standard black.

the Duke show they're releasing as a standalone is really great and has a video of the whole show on Youtube.

I'm generally out on full show releases but the fact that they managed to get this one on just 4 LPs has me intrigued
