    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.

    Peggy-O
    I too fell head over heels for the SLOW Peggy-O from Portland. This has always been a favorite for me and the pace of this version just really took me by surprise. A perfect rendition. Not only is this Box beautiful to look at but the sound quality is really interesting. Each show kind of starts off with some sound adjustments which I find charming and enlightening as it has that fly on the wall feel that one doesn’t always get. The mix on the three and a half shows I’ve heard really separate each instrument and vocals that really heightens the listening experience. Of all the Wall of Sound shows we’ve been given commercially, these are the most satisfying to me. Why this hasn’t sold out yet is a bit confusing since those of us who have heard it have been so impressed. It most likely will I suppose sooner or later. For me this is right up there with Europe 72 and the Fillmore box. Just outstanding on every level.

    I like the slow Peggy-O's from this era too. The few 73's and 74's that exist have a really nice vibe. Not that I don't like the faster ones too. Huntington 78 comes to mind.. I like it all.. and cannot listen to just one show, just one year, just one tour or just one era. It briefly stopped raining today for the first time in like six years.. so I had to quickly cut the grass and make the yard look good for next week's flood.. My yard device still had Boise 83 loaded. I did the yard work in like 1/5th the time it would normally take. It was most enjoyable.. (clearly I hadn't had time to load my devices w/ PNW 73-74. Then again.. if I did, I might still be mowing the grass well into next week, albeit very happy and likely very stoned - but the flowers would look magnificent). Nevermind, no bother.

    Box received and enjoyment had
    Got #296 Tuesday night after a long day at work. I had a buddy who got the Flacs make me an mp3 copy to tide me over, so my listening began Saturday. First few songs of 6/22, I was not impressed, then Bird Song kicked things into a whole new gear. Phil's musical exuberance bleeds over into him chatting with the crowd a few times. One of the big surprises was Bob's phaser! With no officially released Summer '73 apart from a smattering of songs, I never heard Bob play this much phaser or any modulation effects prior to the Brent era, so his liberal use of it starting with Sugaree really caught my ear. This first show is completely deserving of its consideration as an all time show. Bird Song, China> Rider, Playing in the Band, Here Comes Sunshine, He's Gone> Truckin'> Other One> Wharf Rat, Sugar Magnolia are all just outstanding. Not the biggest Sugar Mag fan, but this one is great! The Portland show on 6/24 continues the great playing with good versions of just about everything, amd great sound quality throughout (minus the first couple songs each night) with great separation, if a little low, like Get Shown the Light. Can't wait to get into the Wall of Sound shows, though a little trepidation as I hate the vocal sounds on WoS tapes usually. But anything I get to listen to over the next days will be a blessing. I'm near Fayetteville, NC, so hoping Florence isn't the monster it looks like. The look of the box is fantastic, the book an excellent read. I inspected my discs and saw some scratches on a few discs, I played each of the scratched ones, and no issues. Haven't ripped yet.

    Great Box / Re: Thank You Columbia Gas / Florence
    I haven't even ripped and listened to all the shows.. just PNE 73. This is a worthy collection, very good recordings, great remastering effort and excellent presentation, art and design. Worthy of the performances, I applaud the efforts, especially in the care made to make it sound as good as it can. Whoe Bob.. I read about the gas explosions in MA. Holy Bat Gas! Scary stuff, don't turn on the stove. Finally.. to all those in harms way of Florence. Best of luck and be safe. This thing is a monster and hasn't even hit land yet. It could affect the majority of the folks in the entire East Coast of the US, including yours truly. Wake of the flood, laughing water, forty-nine Get out the pans, don't just stand there dreaming Get out the way, get out the way Here's to Here Comes Sunshine! Great box.. Quite simply.. great. and just in time. Edit: Made the national news. 70 homes exploded or on fire in Northern MA, thousands evacuated. Wowwy.

    Um, okay. I got the email too. I've had an account here for, what, six months? Seven? The email said I had not logged in for five years. Sure... Five years ago I didn't know about this site. Heck, I was hardly listening seriously to the Dead. Hi Marye, if you think that sounds weird, so do I, but it's all good. Just a computer glitch sort of thing I suspect (?) Got the PNE box but haven't cracked it yet, I'll be doing that while in the car for work all next week. Looks beautiful though, thanks to all who had a hand in birthing it. Cheers everybody. Best wishes for everybody down in the Carolinas or in the path of Florence.

It always amused me that Sonny needed an older generation Italian to "translate" the Sicilian message, "Luca Brasi Sleeps with the Fishes". What if Clemenza wasn't there at that hour to interpret? Sonny would have been like "hey check out this new wall decoration someone sent as a get well gift for Pop...this is so cool....a couple of fish in a bulletproof vest - why didn't I think of that?!?" And then Tom Hagen is like, "no Sonny, this is a Sicilian message" and Sonny's like "I know Tom, I know! I didn't want to discuss too much of the family business in front of Michael - but as always, our trusted concierge, you know best." And turning to Michael, Sonny says, "Tom's right... It's a Sicilian message alright... It means, if Pop makes it through this, he needs to start wearing a bulletproof vest..."

Congratulations, Ingrid, Tigran, and Sixtus! Today is Robert Hunter's birthday, I believe. The word gifts given us by this master poet make the music we all cherish infinitely more fascinating. Without Robert's lyrics, I know I would not crave this band as much as I do. Even on song versions where the group's playing may lack a certain X Factor, I can always take interest in, and find new depth in Robert's poems. Happy Birthday, Robert! You are a crucial member of the Grateful Dead.

I am continuing my gentle canter through Europe 1972, and today was Amsterdam, 5/10/72. Its a show that meant absolutely nothing to me-I've played it before-3 or 4 times , I guess, but nothing stuck in my mind about it. Surprising-because its amazing! The first set-in fact the first two cds are pretty good-like any other cds of a band you like playing at the top of their game. Its on the 3rd cd that things really take off-an incredible jam from Truckin' to The Other One-Me and Bobby Mcghee-The Other One and winding up with Wharf Rat. One of the best uses of a wah wah pedal I have ever heard. A truly exceptional sequence of music. The 4th cd feature some more high energy music, punctuated by another excellent Sing Me Back Home. If they hadn't played so many other great shows in Europe 1972-and maybe if they hadn't all been released at the same time (not that I'm complaining) this would surely have been heralded as one of the best shows of all time. I normally leave a gap after playing a Europe 72 show...but after this I felt like some more-so off we go into Rotterdam for the following night. Great news from Sixtus, too-happy days indeed!

It would be nice to see a portion of the proceeds for this amazing release being donated to the tribes of the Northwest Coast for using their traditional story-telling iconography. This is by far the the most beautiful cover art to ever grace the band's albums.

Any indication of the size of the actual box? Dave mentioned in his seaside chat that he was thinking about displaying this box in his home as a de facto piece of art or some sort of display piece. Despite my wife's love for Vancouver Island and the fact that we already have a Roy Henry Vickers print hanging in our home, that will be a tough sell in my house if this box is ginormous, beautiful as it may be.

Been diving into early 80s Grateful Dead recently. While the setlists may seem uninteresting on paper, this era contains some of the most imaginative playing of the band's career; particularly Jerry. I listened to the Dane County show and Poplar Creek shows from 1983 this weekend. Jerry's playing is inventive and different. He seemed to be at the peak of his creative power in the early 80s, before the diabetes and health issues really began to take effect. This is a generally unfamiliar era for me, with scores of shows I've never heard, but it's worth digging around a little bit, and you will find yourself pretty blown away.

First - I always only type "Mississippi Half-Step" in my song titles. I have found if the titles get too long I can have file path names that are too long for my backups. This isn't the bone. The "Bone" - I'm working thru the labeling of D&C shows and I find they played a show at the "Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center"!!! What the hell kind of name is that!?! Nothing said musical entertainment like home mortgage. Remember when they called them things like "performing art centers",, "memorial stadiums" (sure we memorialize our troops until we could sell the name for a buck) This is a thing I wish they stop. You see a name today like "Preparation H Hemorrhoidal Stadium" and NEVER think you're seeing the Yankees. The other side I hate,,, everytime we talk about corporate tax we hear corps don't pay taxes, customers do. Then who the hell is paying for the name on the building???? Can you show me one report that shows return on advertising dollars from stadium naming rights! Ok, bone picked. Back to what you were doing.

Excellent, entertaining read; very detailed and fascinating insight into all the business aspects of post-Jerry years, as well as all the inter personal ups and downs. All things considered, not as ugly as I expected; Jill Lesh comes across as a greedy control freak, the exit of Steve Kimock was particularly unpleasant. Other than that, it's pretty much typical band arguments. Of note, was the disagreements regarding tempos and loudness, with Bobby insisting on slowing everything down to emphasize lyrics, and wanting Phil to turn down his bass(sacrilege!) Oh, we also learned that rowdy Billy K. grabbed Jill's breastusses backstage...

I recall there being some drama as Kimock left The Other Ones.... He appeared a week or so later at a separate event and, If I recall correctly, he got a rousing ovation and flipped an emphatic double-bird, as if at his previous band mates.. Can someone give a quick thumbnail gyst of that beef? I call the song in question simply "Half Step." I think the multiple "official" names are just a SNAFU, similar to "Brown Eyed Women" being given a typo and accidentally listed (and officially published as) "Brown Eyed Woman" (singular instead of plural) on Europe '72. As for song tempos and bass volume, etc... I'm in a band - these topics are all pawns in a power struggle. As with all rock bands, you get to a point where you're not going to back down after xxx years.... Me, I like the slower tempos - most of the time it works, but sometimes yes, it drags. As for bass volume, my experience is the bass may be too loud on stage, but away from the stage it sounds just right - this is why bass players are often placed on a far corner of the stage, not in the middle, as Phil likes to do sometimes.

Steve Parish & Ramrod fired by the Leshes; they resented the fact that Jill was making decisions such as how to load/unload equipment, and what attire was acceptable or not on stage.Parish told Kimock he should be making more $$ Kimock asks Jill for a raise, Jill goes on a tirade. Kimock leaves the room. Jill catches up with him, yelling and then throws a bunch of crumpled dollar bills at Kimock, while shouting "you want more money?" Kimock left the tour the next day, quoting Dylan and Hunter on his website. After reading the book, it's obvious all these people had really bad tempers!!

Just popped in 6/26/76 Relaxing, sipping a brewski I feel bad for Heads that don't get '76. Such good vibes. Looking forward to the Playin>St.Stephen>Wheel>Playin' sandwich

I think Kimock split from a Phil and Friends Tour Fall '99. We saw P&F play 3 shows at The Fillmore in Denver, 10/21-23. Band was Phil, Steve, John Molo, Paul Barrere and Billy Payne. Fun line up. Steve was also with Phil and Warren at Red Rocks that August. I remember a guy with a "Got Kimock?" shirt (play on got milk?) in line outside Fillmore one night. From there, band was hooking up with Dylan's band for a series of shows. Whatever went down happened at Fillmore or at next show on tour (10/27), as Steve (or someone for him) sent out a cryptic email 10/28 that he had left tour. Sigh. I'll have to do some time traveling and revisit those shows on sugarmegs. I loved the instrumental Stella Blue they were playing in those days. At Red Rocks they played Stella -> Wish You Were Here. Yowza.
