Sorry to double post, but the above news is too good to keep to my little self.

Good news indeed - Bob Weir is a hero, but technologically leaves (burys) me standing...unsure how and when this could be accessed - particularly with regard to my lousy rural bandwidth speeds, bearing in mind the high specification required to deliver such quality sound - took the best part of 40 mins to plough through the TRI introduction video - nice sound though...

Ratdog for Cropredy...one fine day!

Ratdog for anywhere.  They haven't played together since Jan 2010...  Give me RD (and indeed Phil & Friends) over Further any day of the week...

Mike,I found that even on my broadband that the picture stuttered a little, but not the sound.  I tried watching it on youtube, and it flowed perfectly.  Unfortunately, it takes a few days for someone to post to youtube.

Answering my own question, here's the lowdown on the subscription-only bonus disc:-

Recorded live at Cleveland Public Auditorium, Cleveland, OH (December 6, 1973)
All selections are previously unissued recordings

Track listing:
1. Greatest Story Ever Told (5:42)
2. China Cat Sunflower > (9:18)
3. I Know You Rider (5:31)
4. Dark Star > (43:33)
5. Eyes of the World (14:03)

Look at the length of that Dark>Eyes pairing!  Jeez!  

I'm going to try my hardest to track one of these down as I didn't take out a sub.

And it sounds even better than it looks

Well, I started off multi-tasking but I forgot what else I was doing and started 'air-tripping' (it's like playing air guitar but with pretend hallucinogens) instead....

Just think, Jerry could have been on the Board of Norwich City by now..

This is just post coma.  I particularly like the wistfull little sigh and look as he picks up a big bag of white powder and sprinkles some of the contents onto the cake

That's great. Thanks David. Interestingly (or maybe not), the first listed performance of "Women Are Smarter" was not until 2nd July '81.

It's 42 years ago today, that the Dead released AOXOMOXOA.  That makes me feel very old!
