"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.

Shipping Costs

What's with all the international shipping cost gripe posts? Is anyone really surprised that it costs an arm and a leg to ship one of these things around the globe and none of these transactions are ever executed smoothly? Haven't you people read any Kafka? I'm willing to debate more topics than most on this board, but the peccadilloes of shipping firms international tax and fee policies is where I draw the line. Good day sirs.

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Excellent Book, much better than the movie, though I like the grundgy movie and Daryl Hannah is hot as Pris and Rutger Hauer was an awesome villian... LedHed, never heard of the 3P's - Back in my college concert production days we used 7 P's: Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance Sorry to hear that you get to experience the "Stamp Tax". As the Bostonian in me that drives by the site of the Boston Massacre, the snarkiness in me says "payback' a bitch" - but only in jest... As KG pointed out, maybe worthy to get the digital medium. Just like last night's Family Guy, I am kidding, it's only a joke ;) I see the point of all people's comments (opinions/personal preferences) regarding era's, song evolution, jamming. I'm from the camp that wants the "creme de la creme" put out there regardless of era. I want the best recordings of the best shows no matter the lineup. I trust Dave in his deadication to putting out what's worthy while dealing with all the variables & requests he has to juggle while working a business model that will continue for years on end while letting some very worthy shows see the light of day. I forgot who mentioned the point of the Dead retiring after 1977. My Favorite JGB era is 1978 - I love Donna and Maria singing with Jerry. I wish more releases would see the light of day from that tour. The Capitol show someone mentioned a few years back was awesome. Seems like they're more into the artwork releases. I'd be psyched if they'd do another Pure Jerry run (re-release) so I could fill in the blanks of the shows I passed on at the time... I would love each and every show was given the plangent treatment. Still loving the new release but still stuck on repeat on the early shows, which is not a bad thing ;) Anyone make it to the hidden vault to get the golden key?

The three P's...

Which are, of course, Purple, Priest, and priorities. Saw Purple and Priest last night with some band called, The Temperance Movement. Amazing, amazing singer like a young, snarly Chris Robinson. Decent band, could use better songs. Next was Priest. I say they are tighter without tired, old-ass Glenn Tipton. Richie Faulkner is a metal god. At 67, Rob Halford has lost absolutely nothing, and he stands as the finest metal singer of all-time. There is absolutely no arguing that point. At 73, Deep Purple's Ian Gillan has lost much of the power he commanded right on through the 1980s. He was a shrieker for the ages. However, he uses what voice he has left wisely and he delivered a fine performance. People say his voice is shot, well, no, that would be Ian Anderson and Don Dokken. I now accept Steve Morse into the band. The only knock being, he isn't Ritchie Blackmore. Ritchie can't play his way out a wet paper bag these days. He's even more faded than Ian Gillan. It has to be said, Ian Paice remains a monster. My God, how he still flies around the top of that Paiste kit is a thing to behold. Oh yeah, last, priorities: if your priority is to avoid endless postal/shipping hassles on official Dead releases, move to the United States.

Faulty translation...

Indeed there are sometimes enormous differences between US English and EU English but no, this invoice was entirely in the Dutch language. It is apparent to me that something went catastrophically wrong during the development of the Dutch language, making it nigh on impossible to express things as one would like to. Even most Dutch people seem to have great difficulties with it. The grammar is mostly impossible for mere mortals to master. Hey, didja see that I slipped in a cool bit of alliteration there? And on a Monday, too.

Re: Worthless

What a trip.. My guess is if we ever got to the bottom of it, the letter was generated by an eager, yet ill equipped person trying to work their up at UPS International, most certainly having the title Financial Analyst II. Their resume now reads, "Targeted and developed outreach program that identified for collection €13M from Import Duty avoiding hippies." Hopefully by the year they will reach their lifetime ambition of being a Financial Analyst III. We can only hope... ________________ Did someone mention Dicks Picks 8, Harpur College? Yes.. a worthy a show, incredible. I'd imagine it periodically floats to the top on lots of peoples favorite show list. It's currently half-played on my phone (which I use in my truck).. currently on pause in the middle of It's A Mans, Mans, Mans World. .but it wouldn't mean nothing, nothing, ..without a woman or a girl. Love that tune.. love that show. Explosive.

Palate Cleanser

..sort of. If you need a break from the box and want to try something different, this show's unique (oxymoron I know... but). It's a Charlie Miller, relatively recently seeded show (less than two years ago). There are two unknown guests sitting in, a sax player and a fiddle player. Listening to the interplay on Dark Star, they seem to have a deep understanding of the music. We wouldn't hear noises like this on Dark Star until the midi days 20 years later. As an added bonus, the sound is quite good for the era - definitely release worthy. David Gans brought it up on The Golden Road yesterday which piqued my interest. https://archive.org/details/gd1969-08-03.137365.sbd.miller.eaton.flac24… 08/03/69 Family Dog at The Great Highway - San Francisco, CA Set 1: Hard To Handle Beat It On Down The Line Hi Heeled Sneakers High Time Mama Tried Dark Star Alligator Drums Alligator Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks) And We Bid You Goodnight ok.. back to our regularly scheduled 1973 and 1974 flavored programming.

UPS/worthless

After paying $ 63.98 for shippimg and handling when ordering, I had to drive two hours to the next UPS depot and pay about $ 70 for tax and UPS fees to get my salmon box. That's really a lot, I think, for even this box. (And by the way: Though liking 73 and 74 a lot, but so many songs without vocals is no fun at all. Sorry.)So to those in command: please, please, please no UPS morning glory delivery no more, please never ever! Nevertheless looking forward to the next Dave's Picks, the 2019 subscription and the next 2019er big box.

Worthless...

As I mentioned earlier, having paid UPS a ransom to get them to release my box, I subsequently received an invoice from them for the same amount in the post. Amongst other things it said that this amount should be paid immediately and threatened sanctions and surcharges if I failed to do so. Today I called UPS customer service to hear what they had to say about it. It only took 12 minutes on hold to get through to a human. The friendly woman on the other end of the line was quite happy to explain that I had indeed already paid and didn't have to pay a second time and that the invoice was purely for my personal bookkeeping. She also added that the wording on the invoice is "confusing". Right. Why send an invoice when a receipt would have been somewhat more appropriate?

Shows vs Mix

In the never ending debate about the "best" era of Dead, I think it is fair to say to each his own. But I would push back strongly on the idea that post Keith & Donna Dead was mediocre. It certainly was MUCH better than that. Now, there were certainly some low points ('83, '84, '86, and the last couple of years in the '90s for certain). Even then, there was some spectacular moments (Unbroken, etc). I think the Songs vs. Jams camp is easier to see. Jams camp is gonna say '69 is tops. No later than '74. Songs camp will say later. Bobby thinks '89-'90 was tops for many the songs, and I tend to agree with him on a lot of tunes. Certainly, there was much better variety in the 80's with less repetition. Maybe lost some jamming, but anyone who listens to the Hornsby era and says no interesting jams is not paying attention. Ditto late Brent. I will say that the quality of the mixes declined a lot in the 80's. That is no in dispute. Get a good AUD tape (or a matrix) and you are better off than with a SDBD.

Ordered!

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!

Excellent...

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.

As Usual....

You got me. Looking forward to this release. :)

I need another tee shirt like i need a hole in my head....

....but what the hell. It's just money.

Thanks

Thanks for the Amazon nod - pretty reasonable price too

well....I think '73 and '74

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

ordered

Vguy - I thought the same thing on the Thelma T and missed out. Not missing out this time! Psyched for two more HCS to add to the collection!

Wow

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.

Not fixed yet...

Never mind I found my missing fish, Eric's a slippery bastard.

everyone's faces when they visited the site today

What to do?

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.

DONE AND EASY

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.

Yes, that was easy

No drama, no issues in the ordering process. Really looking forward to some high quality 73-74.

I'm a phish fan and I say

I'm a phish fan and I say fuck that phish box set

Thank you!

Very cool concept and admirable patience from Team Dead! Thanks and nice job to DL and all involved. The advance listen sounds amazing.

Booklet

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.

kyle harmon

Same here, Kyle. I was blown away by the price of that Phish box. This one on the other hand... I say Fuck Yess!! Ive got the phish bakers dozen sbd's if anyone is ISO

My reaction when i visited here earlier today

Don't Sell Out until Friday

I can't come up with that scratch until Friday. It better not sell out. I really don't wanna pay scalper prices.

192/24 FLAC or physical box/cds?

I'm having a hell of a time deciding between the higher quality audio download and the actual box, but CD quality. I'm usually audio quality all the way so not sure why I'm hesitant with this (?).

Flacs!

Downloads! Nice! I don't need, and I never look at all the stuff that comes in the box sets. Flacs all the way! Now all I need is more time in my life to give these amazing shows a proper listen(s).

I buy the physical and then

I buy the physical and then rip it on iTunes however I want. which is always ALAC, cuz FLAC is not universal, FLAC will not play on any apple products and wont even load on iTunes.

192/24

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.

$160 for D&C?

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.

?

Hey for you guys that have bought t-shirts from GDM do the sizes run a little small or a little big? I've never bought a shirt here but this one has me tempted. Thanks.

thank you for the GIPHY kyleharmon

this box set is outstanding!!!

Buy physical, then load on HD

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.

Which Northwest box?

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

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.

I had forgotten... 6/22/73

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)

Use dBpoweramp

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.

Please take it all in

One From the Vault was released in 1991, if you were trading tapes back then, and you could get 6 shows from 73 and 74 of the quality we are going to get!!! Thank you Dave..... bobt

How do you make a white

How do you make a white supremacist sweat?Give him a DNA test. WOKKA WOKKA!!!

That reminds me....

....what did bolo's Muppets clue have to do with this box set?

Disc 4

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?!?

Wow

By my count that's: 5 China>Rider 4 PITB 3 Other One 3 HCS 3 Eyes of the World 2 Ship of Fools 2 WRS 1 Dark Star 1 Bird Song My counting skills my be off but at first glance this is truly a gift. We are such a lucky group.

And, don't forget....

....three Money Money's. It's the magic number.

Thanks for that comment. I

Thanks for that comment. I totally agree!

Clues unraveled, sorta chronologically

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.

Hooray for bolo24!!!

y'all be cool.

Plangent Process

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!

Disc 4

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.

and speaking of numbers...

...we have 22-24-26, 17-19-21, and today is 6-12-18.
