Grateful Dead
Noteworthy Truckin's
This is a collection of noteworthy versions of Truckin
played by the Grateful Dead. It is a revision of a collection
originally circulated on eTree in aUGUST, 2008:
http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=517756
The original collection was closely based on a list put together by
Eric Wybenga and published in his book _Dead To The Core: An Almanac
of the Grateful Dead_. This revised collection includes sources from
Eric's list that were omitted from the original collection because I
did not believe I should seed them at eTree. It drops some of the
versions I used to "replace" versions I didn't think I could seed. It
also adds other versions that were recommended in the comments on the
original collection, as well as versions that I thought should be
added. Remember, "noteworthy" does not mean "best". I welcome your
ideas about what should be included or dropped from the
collection. There could easily be a version 3.
More often than not, the Truckin's here stood alone, or were easy to
disentangle from the neighboring songs. Truckin's that are part of
larger jams occur in other Noteworthy collections -- some occur here,
too. I tried to keep the colleciton a reasonable size without doing
musical violence to jams, so there were judgments to make....
The track names are self-explanatory: they list the date of the
performance, the SHNID of the source, and shortened names of the songs
included in the track. The music in these tracks is exactly the same
as the music from the source indicated by the SHNID. When necessary, I
joined the songs into jams using "shntool join", I snipped white space
from the end of the tracks and sometimes added fades using WaveLab
6.0, and then I compressed the files using "flac --best". I used
shntool version 3.0.9 and flac version 1.2.1.
If you have the first version of this collection, you should be able
to leech over it and only grab the changes: you'll have to rename the
old tracks first, as I've had to use six-digit SHNIDs i this version
of the project.
