    "We were in the Pacific Northwest...between somewhere in Washington and some other where in Oregon. The road took us to the lip on a ridge, from where we could see around us for many miles in all directions … It was breathtaking to behold, but as we watched, we had a firm realization that we were witnessing something even more beautiful than our eyes could ever take in … Life causes life. Heaven and Earth dance in this way endlessly, and their child is the forest. And so there we were, epiphanously watching that grandest and most glorious dance of life—of which we are just a tiny part—awed by a magnificence without beginning, without end..."

    Bob Weir, “Sell Headwaters—Everyone Wins,” San Francisco Chronicle

    The Pacific Northwest offers up a rich feast of land, sky, and water. It is ripe with influences, abundant with symbols, deep and spirited. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that the Grateful Dead played some of their most inspired shows on these fertile grounds. It does, however, sometimes take a breath for the elements to re-align years later. It seems for us, they finally have and we are able to present not just a glimpse of the band's extraordinary exploratory tour through the region, but a two-tour bounty as the PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS.

    For PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS, we've paired two short runs made up of six previously unreleased shows - P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, B.C. (6/22/73); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (6/24/73); Seattle Center Arena, Seattle, WA (6/26/73); P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, Canada (5/17/74); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (5/19/74); and Hec Edmundson Pavilion, University of Washington, Seattle, WA (5/21/74). Each show has been mastered in HDCD from the original master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. The transfers from the masters were transferred and restored by Plangent Processes, further ensuring that this is the best, most authentic that these shows have ever sounded.

    PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS comes in an ornate box created by Canada’s preeminent First Nations artist Roy Henry Vickers (more on this tremendous artist soon). To complement the music, the set also includes a 64-page book with an in-depth essay by Grateful Dead scholar Nicholas G. Meriwether and photos by Richie Pechner.

    Due September 7th, this release is limited to 15,000 individually numbered copies and available exclusively from dead.net. You'll want to grab a copy while you can and sit back, relax, and enjoy all the exclusive content we'll be rolling out over the next few weeks.

    Looking for something a little more byte-sized? The collection will also be available for HD digital download in FLAC and ALAC, exclusively at dead.net, on release day. You can pre-order it now too.

    Get it while you can.

    That was a good once Stoltzie. Made me laugh like this one always gets me. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8X_Ot0k4XJc Hippychic, I have a copy, but it really doesn't sound that good. There are channel dropouts galore, and even when that's not happening, it sounds like there's a lot of flutter and wow, and just generally bad fidelity. If you still want it PM me. Jimbo enjoy Dave's Picks 16 on your ride, I really love that Cumberland Blues a lot. The audio dropout during Jerry's solo hurts me deeply, but it picks up about halfway through, so it's not a total loss. I was listening to the Dark Star, Eyes of the World, Playing in the Band the other night, and that really is an awesome disc 3. I don't know about you guys but there are a few songs that fit perfectly with a nice sunny day while driving: Sugar Magnolia, Bird Song, and of course Here Comes Sunshine. Oh, and the Jam from Ladies & Gentlemen - best Jam ever?

    I was into them in high school..now I can only listen to their instrumentals, lyrics drive me nuts like many jam bands.. give me Hunter words anytime. Not to mention many of their fans are so fucking annoying.. as are many Dead fans I realize but something about Phish. As for Dave's Picks, I am hoping the announcement will be 2/26/77

    speaking of Phish...
    my first show with them was here in Seattle at a place called the Backstage in Ballard (a neighborhood). sometime in 1991. they were cool enough, but I thought the trampolines were kind of lame. I also saw a show there with Ray Manzarek/Michael McClure/Allen Ginsberg some time later. It eventually got converted into a health club. whee.

    That's a great set List.Been Watching all week. Boy did things go bonkers. I must say can't believe the amount of Phish shows that have showed up lately. I like it and as a fan of both bands(Phish brought me to The Dead and I haven't looked back.) The argument about bands best of types is awesome. I like the Beatles answer on studio but because I'm a lot younger with a love of all music I say studio albums of Nine Inch Nails is up there too. Trent was a 1 man band for a lot of years only using other people on the road. I forgot the other 2 parts but I remember some of the answers and it's good conversations. DA27 IMHO will come from 69-74. It just feels right.Good thing is I don't care what show it will be. There's beauty in all eras and I'm glad I can own it. Vguy: What's Green and smells like pig? Kermit's finger. Keep the jokes coming buddy It's been a crazy week but some great stories. Thanks to everybody be well Dave

    PHISH, SUNDAY 07/14/1991 TOWNSHEND FAMILY PARK Townshend, VT SET 1: Reba, Llama, The Squirming Coil > Golgi Apparatus, Guelah Papyrus, My Sweet One, Colonel Forbin's Ascent > Fly Famous Mockingbird > The Sloth, I Didn't Know[1] > Possum[2] SET 2: Suzy Greenberg[3], Caravan[3] > Divided Sky[3], Gumbo[3] > Dinner and a Movie[3] > Bouncing Around the Room, Split Open and Melt[3], Magilla[3] > Cavern[3] > Run Like an Antelope[3] SET 3: AC/DC Bag[3] > The Landlady[3], Esther > Chalk Dust Torture, Bathtub Gin[3], Mike's Song[3] > I Am Hydrogen[3] > Weekapaug Groove[3], Hold Your Head Up[3] > Touch Me[4], Harry Hood ENCORE: Contact[3] > Big Black Furry Creature from Mars[3] [1] Fish on trombone. [2] Charlie Chan and Oom Pa Pa signals. [3] Giant Country Horns. [4] Giant Country Horns and Fish on trombone. This show featured The Giant Country Horns for all of the second set except for Bouncing, all of the third set except for Esther, Chalk Dust, and Hood, and for the encore. The show began with a humorous announcement from Trey that he felt “overdressed” during National Nudist Week. My Sweet One included a tease of the Bonanza theme and Magilla included a Flintstones theme tease. I Didn't Know, in which Fish was introduced as "Hank," and Touch Me featured Fish on trombone. Possum included Charlie Chan and Oom Pa Pa signals as well as a Dave’s Energy Guide tease, while Weekapaug included more DEG teases. Trey introduced the Giant Country Horns at the end of Antelope and during BBFCFM. There was a long wait during HYHU for Fish, who was apparently in the bathroom. Hood included full-band Jeopardy! theme teases. This show ran much longer than scheduled (at one point, when Trey noted that they should wind up the show, a fan urged the band to “fuck the clock”), prompting Trey to beg the crowd to leave in a timely and orderly fashion after the encore.

    stoltzfus - That cracked me up! On a side note, I have been in a laid back Dead mood as of late....something from 1976 would be welcome. Plus, admittedly, I don't have a lot from '76. Or Gainesville.

So, like the other guy said, I ran - I didn't walk - to the nearest ticket vendor! It was a great show. I was familiar w/ many of the songs in the Dead's playlist by the fall of 1980. I had become familiar w/ the band around the time of Blues For Allah and Terrapin Station and, after the release of Shakedown Street, the band was summarily thrust into the national spotlight w/ the major smashing success of the title track. They wouldn't see that kind of radio play again until the release of the After Dark album when the believably-unpopular tune, Touch of Grey, thrust our Bay Area Boys into the international limelight once again! Anyway, I've become VERY familiar w/ the set list since this `80 show and had taken in numerous shows by the time August of 1995 rolled around. I've also watched other incarnations like The Other Ones, Phil & Friends & now The Dead w/ great delight & renewed enthusiasm. It's does the heart good to see the music surviving so long after it first commenced in 1965. I guess, truly, The Music Never Stopped, eh?! Anyway, this UF show is a great settie: there are definitely better, there are also certainly worse. But, it will always be a special settie to me `cause it was the night I popped my Grateful Dead cherry, so to speak! Well, as Pierre Robert from 93.3FM/WMMR in Philly was always fond of saying ... "may God Bless the Grateful Dead." Oh, and ... GO `GATORS!!! -------- Yeah, the second set has some good stuff... but I wouldn't say it was mind-blowing. For example, the transition from Shakedown to Franklin's was sloppy. -Anonymous ---- Went to this show as a freshman at UF. Remember being in an nice altered state waiting to get inside and a bus full of Hare Krishna unloaded in front and they started their own jam session. I had never seem Krishna before and just watching them jam was a fun diversion. Anyone else remember that? The place only held about 10k and the bleachers were shanking. "Double shot of whiskey and those Gainesville girls start looking good" ---- Thanks, "Dr. G" for the heads-up on this one!

Though I was not at these PNW shows, I've placed my order. Also, I ordered the t-shirt! I love the First Nations artwork on it. David, will we ever see an official release of Eugene 1990? Those were two awesome shows as well as Brent's last shows in the PNW. Thanks!

Signed on here this morning hoping for an announcement and was not disappointed. Had my preorder in an hour before I got the email announcement. I was hoping for a boxset from '73, so this is about perfect, getting what I hoped for plus the shows from '74 as well, can't do much better than that. Plus the artwork looks excellent as well.

well....I think '73 and '74 will not be the other Dave's Picks. my box set fund of x-mas and b-day money still covered this spread. but im still pissed that someone stole 100 dollars in the mail from a card from a my mamaw as I found this mother's day when I visited her that day. hope you get caught and hope federal prison was worth it

Every time I start to waiver about automatically subscribing to DaPs or automatically buying the annual box set release Dave keeps pulling these rabbits out of his hat. Last time it was GSTL. This one is pretty much exactly what I was hoping for. Ordering was scary easy, like "Did that just happen?" easy. Personal note...I always kind of secretly wish shows I was at get an official release. I was at 5/23/73, 6/29/73, 6/30/73, 7/01/73, and 5/24/74. Missed it by that much.

In case anyone from dead.net actually monitors these comments... As a long standing consumer of all things officially released (I even buy the things that I already had through alternative sources), I'm really torn between the very cool collateral that comes with the CD version, but really want the hi-def digital files. My 30 Trips USB Bolt was a nice compromise, but even at that, I got a different package than the CD version. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade my Europe '72 suitcase for anything, but if the files are mastered at 192/24, how can I feel good about ripping the CD's at 44.1/16? I really wish there was a away for me to buy the real box, with all of it's coolness, AND get the hi def files without spending almost $400. Think about it dead.net. Please think about it.

Between this and PHISH's Baker's Dozen box I was conflicted but this won out. Thank You Dave. This is a very good Box and the price is good. I love both bands but 500.00$ isn't worth that run and I loved it. Can't wait to celebrate this on my birthday. I cannot wait to hear that 45 minute Playing.

Sorry to see Nick Meriwether is authoring the booklet. I'd rather read an analysis of the music by someone like David Gans or Gary Lambert than more tenured professor liberal drivel from St. Nick. Och weel , the music's the thing anyway. Definitely looking forward to THAT.

I don’t know if I could tell the difference. Fully Normanized Plangents already sound amazing in 44.1/16. But if I could tell the difference......I would be in a quandary. Replace everything with 192/24, or don’t bother since every year my hearing degrades anyway? I’m going backwards anyway, starting buying vinyl.

hahahahahahahahahaha $160. wowzers. and that doesn't include "service fee". all due respect to CJ. not you I'm mocking. it's the price. I remember (old man, look at my life, 24 and I fell on the floor) when $25 was considered high-priced for a GD ticket. LOVE THIS BOX SET. just gotta wait until September.

I have audio files in AIFF, ALAC, FLAC, and AAC 320kbps.Separate HD’s for each format, with backups. Need to be prepared for all scenarios and situations. My car will play a USB flash drive but only in lossy, so I use the AAC files in the car. Would seem that it wouldn’t be that hard for a factory car stereo to play lossless, but apparently Honda thinks that using 10-year old stereo technology is acceptable.

I can just picture Dave in the meeting with Rhino: "We have an idea for a 3 show '73 box in the Pacific Northwest, and a 3-show '74 box from the same cities, but we don't know which one to release.... they're both amazing..... (pregnant pause followed by silent smiles all around...) As for $160 D&C, I agree it's crazy, but the shows do not disappoint. Speaking of old, I saw a guy at Red Rocks '85 tell some folks he wanted $60 for his spare ticket, and he was suddenly surrounded by a small mob saying he was gauging: "How dare you!" I think he relented for $50, and he looked guilty as heck taking it as folks still shook their heads. Dead at Red Rocks $50!!!!!

Problem with physical though is your limited to 44.1/16 no matter what you do to it. With 192/24, I can still put it on a CD at lossy quality at least and play the high res tracks on my nice home rig. Just not sure how much high res will benefit 73/74 recordings.

That on the 6/22/73 show there was a very, very long Truckin.' In this official release it's 26:06 I knew that 5/21/74 had the one of the longest Playing In The Band at 47 minutes (46:59 here.) --- In the "How big is big?" department: Is this box in it's shipping container larger than the Complete Europe 72 suitcase in it's shipping container? Is this box bigger than the 30 Trips set in it's shipping container? I am 5' 6" and about 175 lbs. with a bit of a *bay window*/beer belly/pot belly. Is it bigger than myself? Or is it bigger than Phil Lesh? (the tallest of the boys)

KBM - you can buy and download dBpoweramp for around $40.00 and rip CDs to whatever format you like, including hi-def. I have ripped all my GD HDCDs to that format and use a DAC to get the most out of the music. If you download this software (you will get a lifetime license) and need help, contact me via PM and I can walk you through it.

I sure hope the fourth disc of the set, and last disc of Vancouver '73 has some hidden philler. I guess a 20+ minute Truckin' will make for some odd tracking....but still. Three short encore songs only?!?

Muppet video - spoof of the movie “Se7en” - 7 is for the 70’s, bacon in the box meant post-Pig (you get bacon after the pig has expired). There had been early speculation that it might be a 68-69 box with Pigpen.________________________________________________________________ 6 2 Six over two, which means 6 shows over 2 years _______________________________________________________________ B, No. Fourteen No. Fourteen is the “B” side to the "hit" single “Seven and Seven Is” by Love First 7 is for the decade, second 7 is for the 2 years (3 + 4) ________________________________________________________________ Said Stoltzfus would like the box because he called for a Dark Star (6/24/73), plus he lives in the Seattle area, smack in the middle of the show venues. There might have been more, like a subtle Canada reference, but I'm old and don't remember. That is all.

I'm listening to my copies of these shows; mostly matrix versions. The plangent-ized sbd two-tracks are going to sound two damn sights better than these (still-tasty) matrix recordings. These shows just shine. After Plangent, I'd suggest not looking directly at the box as its likely to shine so brightly as to cause damage to vision. Wish I had the scratch for this one. Mebbe I'll order it in a fit of delirium tremens before this box sells out!

I, for one, will be happy for a Disc 4 with only 22 minutes. I appreciate the concert in order ... and I'm gonna rip it anyway. There will be plenty here to love.
