Offered here is a Very Rare & Awesome ! chance to acquire the Grateful Dead Spring 1990 ' Too ' ( The Other One ! ) 3/29/1990 Nassau Coliseum - Uniondale, New York ( NY ) Show !!! This is a 3-CD Set featuring the Entire 3/29/90 Nassau ! Show ( 17 Live Tracks ! ) - which was available for sale ' only ' inside the Limited Edition G.D. Spring 1990 ' Too ' Box Sets issued in 2014 by Grateful Dead Productions. So, the only way to acquire this 3/29/90 3-CD Set ( of the Branford ! Show ) was to purchase the ' entire ' Out of Print Limited Edition Box Set, which was limited to only 9,000 copies in 2014 - and, as a result is a highly-collectible & hard to find 23-CD Box Set. So, in ' Other ' words ... here-is ' The ! ' 3/29/90 G.D. Nassau ! Show !! Were You ! There ?!! ... Hopefully-So ! As this 3/29/90 Show was indeed The-Night ! with ' Very-Special Guest ' Branford Marsalis ! joining-in - on the Saxophone !! This Amazing-Set ! is Digitally-Mastered, and is Pristine ! in its sound quality ... a simply Amazing ! release from one of the many Smokin'-Hot ! Shows on this Grateful Dead Spring '90 Tour. And ... if you were fortunate enough to catch any of these Magical ! 16 East Coast Tour dates on this '90 Spring Tour run - then you already well know just exactly what I am talking about here. The eager anticipation of the Dead Fans was at a new high, and the ' Mighty ' Energy ! of the Band was just completely infectious - as they were downright " ON " !!! And ... as far as this 3/29 " Middle-Night " Show at the Nassau Coliseum goes ( the Massive ! " Branford-Night !! " ) ... this was indeed ' Night 2 ' of the 3-Show stand at the Good Ol' Hockey Rink ! A Venue the Grateful Dead became Quite ! familiar with over their 30-Year Career ... of delivering Live Rock & Roll ! Wow ... as that truly-is what I personally love best about the Spring '90 Tour - that they are indeed delivering some serious " Rock & Roll " !!! Just as one of my long-time Dead Buddies once so-eloquently stated ... " Man, I just really prefer '80's & '90's Dead ... because they are just like ... so-much more " Rockin !!! " - Ha !! And, when Spring '90 hits New York ! - you just know what's coming next ... Rock & Roll !!! And, keep in mind too that this 3-Show ' Nassau ' stand actually directly followed the Boys delivering 3-straight Shows at the Knickerbocker Arena - in Albany, New York ... likely best known to you as --- " Dozin' At The Knick " ! More Legendary " Spring 1990 " Tour, and some of the 1st boards that were let out of the oh-so-precious G.D. " Vault " way-back in like 1996 ! So-funny too, to think that '96 is actually now close to 30-Years-Ago ! Dang, time flies ... and especially when there is so-much Grate ! Dead to listen to. I mean remember way-back in 1991 - when it was pretty much just " One From The Vault " - unless you had your racks of Tapes ! Which, so-thankfully ... pretty much all of us did ! Ha ! So, as far as this 3/29 Nassau Show goes - it is truly beyond me why it pretty much came out ' last ' of the Albany & Nassau runs ( pretty-much ) - well, you know ... unless the powers that be were indeed saving more of the Best ! for Last !!... Jack Straw > Bertha ! - Ramble On Rose ! - Bird Song > Promised Land - 1st Set Closer !! -- Eyes > Estimated >>> Dark Star !! ... Wow !!! - on ' Both ' ends of Drums/Space !! - and in the " Brandford-Zone !!! " ( Whoa !?! ) ... then The Wheel ( a real-pretty one ! ) > Throwin' Stones > Lovelight ! - with a Knockin' On Heaven's Door Encore !! Dang ... I mean - see what I-mean !!? A Hot Setlist ! - and an even Hotter ! Dead-Show !! I distinctly remember getting these board tapes myself right-before my '92 Spring Tour run - and I ( & We-All ! ) were Totally-Stoked ! I fully know people were really head over heels ( in the breezeway ... literally ! ) over Branford ! joining-in !! And, at least to me and my Rock & Roll ear ... I think this is just one of the superior Shows ! overall from a Rock & Roll ! standpoint - all things considered ... and even most importantly too ( naturally ... ) - I just think Garcia's chops sound just a little bit fresher ! - at least to me ... with a bit more Rosebud " Kick " !! - here now 12-Shows into the Tour ! And too ... Wow !?! -- The Dark Star !!!!! As right around this point in time, the younger Deadhead Faithful back then were getting so-luckily " used-to " getting these ! And, you betcha this one is something special ... Impressive ! & cohesive Garcia-led Jams !! Wow ... I mean I don't even know what else to say ' Other ' than ... I'm so incredibly lucky that I caught this G.D. Tour ! - now close to 35-Years-Ago ! I mean what can you say ? ... Time-Flies ! - when You're Havin' Fun !! The Band meant real-serious business all throughout this Nassau run, were Red-Hot ! and -- here for-sure is the ' Proof ' in this exceptional pro-released format CD Set ! Which, only took like 25-Years ! ( or 24-ish ?! ) to finally-deliver ... but, my goodness - was it ever worth the entire wait ! It's no secret at-all why this Spring 1990 Tour ( Spring 1990 & Spring '90 ' Too ' ! ) was very-popularly selected for its Amazing ! pro-release, with this 3/29/90 Show most-definitely being one of the many ' main ' Treasure ! pieces ( kinda like a ' Lobster-Diamond ' - right ? ... Ha ! -- Awesome !! ) to thoroughly prove this fact. A completely Glorious ! Spring Tour '90 performance to say the very-least, and thankfully for us all ... this 3-CD Set is one of the Ultimate ! representations of how just well the Band was playing, clicking, sounding & feeling ... with heavily Infectious-Energy ! & Live Rock & Roll Magic !! - Everywhere !!! -- Enjoy !!!!!
