    "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.

    Record Store Memories
    When I started high school (1969) my mom would give me a dollar a day to buy lunch in the cafeteria. I would skip lunch and pocket the dollar and every Friday I would buy an album at American Records, a hippie record shop, on my way home. $3.69 per. I would have to smuggle the albums into the house. One day while doing laundry my mom found a reciept for an album I had bought in my pockets and wanted an explanation. I told her that occasionally I didn't eat lunch and used that money to buy an album when I had enough. She was furious and told me to go bring her this album that she would hold onto until I had earned enough through chores to buy it back. Now the album I had bought was Live/Dead and I wasn't going to give that to her. So I went upstairs and grabbed a Steve Miller Band album which I had bought earlier and thought was total garbage and with a sad face turned it over to her. Guess I'll never be a Supreme Court Justice.

    Hey now Midway Kid, I live less than 10 minutes from 75th and Metcalf in KC area....I believe the old record store you're referring to was Peaches....I remember going in there with my parents when I was a kid. I think it is now a 24hour fitness or something. I also know that the old Peaches wooden album crates are highly sought after for storing and displaying vinyl....probably $50 a piece. KCJ

    Re: Midway Kid
    Great story Midway Kid.. brings back memories. I struggled very hard to get a few of the harder to get albums.. There was a place about 20 min away from where I lived in high school called Record and Tape Traders that got used/older/import items that were not for sale in the standard record stores. When I finally got Garcia's first solo album (Old and in the Way too).. I was in heaven. It took me more than a year to even find a copy let alone one that sounded good and didn't break the bank. The other happy days in my GD listening adventure were my first 'good' tape trading buddy, the time One From the Vault (and later Dicks Picks) started cranking things out and more recently the day I discovered the Live Music Archives at Archive.Org. Heaven.. Thanks to all the good folks who helped bring us the music in the highest quality humanly possible.

    By the way, it is confirmed I am not a robot. Good. Love the box--buy it when you can---the music is certainly worth it. The 5/19/74 sound quality is stunning, the immediacy of the instruments and the proper (Garcia up front) soundstage is amazing. Weirdly, it is probably at its best during the songs where the vocals are off. I just crank those up to listen to the three guitarists. Thanks to all for doing this. Greatly appreciated.

    box set and story
    What a box set. some of the best and mean best recording I have ever heard for the Dead. Anyone who has not bought this who wants it. Buy it. There is so much fantastic music here. Non of the CDs skipped in my box. Thankfully. A quick story from the old days. We did not have such easy access to such great recordings back the day. I was a senior in high school 1987 and had seen the dead for the first time in 1985. I was then and now today a Dead Head. Anyway between 1984 and where I am in the story finding dead albums in record stores was not that easy. At least some of the rare ones at the time. So every record store in Chicago I went too I would go straight to the dead section and see what they had. Every album that I never saw before I would buy if I could, if not go back and buy when I had the money. Till I found all the albums. The two funnest I remember finding was Reckoning. Man that was great. And Europe 72. I remember I had to save up for a couple weeks to buy it I think it might of been 17 dollars. I was so excited to open a three record set and look at all the pictures of the band because they were scarce at that time as well. Anyway to my surprise the whole inside was blank no pictures. I guess they had a book in the original print back in the seventies and got rid of it later. But the songs were great. Anyway back to my story I read in a bulletin somewhere that the Dead were releasing From The Mars Hotel on CD. So I ordered a copy not owning a CD player because they were expensing and I had no CDs. So when it arrived I drove to 75th and Metcalf outside Kansas City. I lived there at this point. A big giant record store. And went to where their full size stereos with CD players were set up for sale. I put the CD in and sat down on the floor and listened to the whole thing right there in the store. Nobody said a word to me. So as I listened to these songs it brought me back to that day. And the fond memories of me learning the songs I had never heard. Another great find was when I found Old And In The Way on CD in what back then was called the import area. I saw what looked to be Garcia on the front and sure enough it was. That CD got tons of play in college. I later many years down the road down the road went back to that same building which was now a boarders books at that point and read all of Phil's book on breaks from work. So oddly that building has two very special grateful memories for me.

    saw this set on ebay for 175.00 everyone keep calm, you will be able to get this set for cheaper if you hold out a little bit longer. The 1990 Too box has got to be one of the best sounding, best recorded, best mastered box set, and it took over a year to sell out, so I don't see this one selling out anytime soon. I used to be immortal, but then I was informed that you still get old and feeble, immortality would only be good if you could stay young. So I gave up immortality for the pleasures of the flesh, don't have one regret, well, maybe one or two. Who wants to live to be 90, or 100 if you are all used up and unable to do anything but sit in your wheelchair and look out the window? Live for today, carpe diem

    Grace, Jack and Jorma?.. yes. Seeing 2/3 of this trio in the fall. Life is short, makes one feel a little less immortal. I got to see the revised Jefferson Airplane during their reunion tour I think in 1989? Ziggy Marley opened and Hot Tuna played a few acoustic tunes during set break. As close as I ever came to seeing the real thing.. still, it seemed special at the time.

    I was never crazy about this one. Odd choice for vinyl when you stop to think about how many better ones there are. I found the show to be just kind of average for 1977. The best thing about it are the bonus tracks from 11/2 at Seneca. There's a really hot Playing in the Band on Dave's Picks 24 from Berkeley. When I say hot, I mean this is in my top 5 all time. There is an intensity that Jerry and Phil provide, which seems to bring up everybody's game. I haven't listened to this show since it came out, and even then I was preoccupied and never gave it its full due.

Thanks Vguy!What can I say?...I'm a Weener. Ha! I saw the first comment on youtube…"Ya WEEN some,ya lose some...it's all the same to me..." :o) Deaner & his band played here 2 or 3 nights ago. Didn't go see 'em. Don't know why. Heard they did a killer Stella Blue. Got word tonight that Deaners bass player is filling in with JRAD tonight at Grand Targhee. Whoops...

Mr. Straw, I was just going with the flow, because Vguy said he just got wood at the suggestion of this great show from 12/30/69. Some people might say your intolerance of a woman saying the exact same comment from a woman, but not a man is sexist. Lucky for you politics bore me and I don't hold a grudge :) And also a half dozen people PM'd me to say your basically a cranky old man and that I should just ignore it. I don't know about the old man part, but you sure are a cranky one:) Make you a deal. I'm just going to be me, and you can ignore it. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming!! KeithFan I visited that very show on archive.org, but unfortunately it doesn't sound so good. Is there a good copy floating about?

I have openly admiited many times to being a curmudgeon. Thank you for you and your friends for agreeing. Just not sure why six people would feel compelled to PM as such. Boredom I suppose. For what it is worth, I posted the current photo for your benefit. Enjoy. Agreed. Politics and religion have no place on this site. Your innuendos were quite funny the first few times. They just grow tiresome. There are better websites for that, I am sure.

That is a killer set list, and I like the bonus track filler too. If they had good tapes of that. Woohoo, honestly that would be a hugely popular Dave's Pick. Also not tired of your speaking mannerisms Hippychic, you're welcome here. This place features locker room talk all the time, and really, I laughed my ass off about that comment the day when that dude said oragel, and you said what you said. I chortled. Keep being you. Hell, it ain't like you even post here that much.

Did somebody say Cumberland Blues? Must have been VGuy.. First.. wishing a glorious Saturday to you all. It's sunny and hot here in the mid-Atlantic hill country, water sports are in the agenda. I received my Anthem of the Sun 50th yesterday. If you are still waiting.. I think you will be impressed with the 3-D, trippy take on the original multi-headed Buddha. It's way cool. I won't get a chance to check out the 67 show just yet, but it's on the agenda. Happy day.. if for no other reason than I just got a new, very special CD. Second.. I somehow lost a device recently.. which is a shame because it was a 160G iPod classic and they don't make em anymore. So I grabbed one of my newer devices and it magically landed on 3/28/73 Springfield, so I am starting my day on a sunny, hot bike ride.. all geared up and getting to roll it with Cumberland>Here Comes Sunshine. A glorious start to what promises to be a glorious day. As to diatribe from yesterday, it was Friday the 13th.. let's just chalk it up as a little harmless leftover from a play of unlucky numbers. Have a good one all.. Anthem of the Sun, still my favorite GD album.. in the words of Robert Hunter, "What a daring record"

I'm hearing a lot of his stuff for the first time the past few days. Low, Lodger, the man who sold the world (album), Diamond Dogs (album) always liked Bowie, but limited myself to Ziggy Stardust, Scary Monsters, and Heroes, plus a lot of the singles from over the years (Fame...an old auditory friend). will be hearing AOTS re-issue today. :))) Happy Saturday, everyone.

My guess is that it will be 3/22/73.I know, I know, too close to the box set dates, right? But remember, 11/6/77 was released not all that long after the Cornell box. The 3/22/73 show: 1) Generates more potential interest in the Pacific NW box. 2) Has Sugaree in the second song slot. 3) Took place in Utica, NY, where there was a "recent alien sighting" (Google Utica aliens). 4) Is a Betty Board. Also, there hasn't been a '73 Dave's Pick since Vol. 21 from 4/2/73. Might seem recent to some, but that was a year and a half ago. Dave likes this era. It's a good possibility. We'll all know on Monday...

I was just in Berlin and made it a point to seek out Hansa Studios where Bowie recorded Heroes and Low. Also found his apartment where he wrote these two as well as Lodger. I love Heroes. It’s a great song. Overall, not my favorite period of his, but seeing how I was in Berlin it was a must do. Pretty much all of his early stuff is great. Must have for all rock ‘n’ rollers. Obviously I’m a bit biased. My avatar probably gives that away. “We could be heroes, if just for one day. “

Don't I wish..."Bolo24" got IT! Alligator Alley Gym University Of Florida Gainesville, FL, USA Set 1: Alabama Getaway Promised Land Candyman New Minglewood Blues Row Jimmy Mama Tried Mexicali Blues Althea Lost Sailor> Saint Of Circumstance Don't Ease Me In Set 2: Shakedown Street> Franklin's Tower> Estimated Prophet> He's Gone> Truckin'> Drums> The Other One> Stella Blue Good Lovin' Encore: Casey Jones Edits from reviews of this show: I was living in St.Augustine, FL, at the time & had heard that The Boys were coming to Gainesville, a mere hour+ ride from the First City. 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!

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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?

1. I agree It's really surprising of recent Live Content on Phish. Since the Steamer there hasn't been this much posting on them. It doesn't bother me but it is strange.2. My first show was Burgesstowm, PA 2003. I was evolving in my music tastes and bringing in music I knew I'd like. from the advice from someone it lead to my purchasing of So Many Roads at my local Circuit City for roughly 58$. I was blown away. I missed a lot of stuff(Really want a F69 box.) and Started my journey when I received the Steamer. I became a collector after I put those shows in Jewel cases. I'm pretty much straight edge but these's releases along with the Dave's series is a drug. I purchase random shows from Phish but I purchase every Box and subscribe every year for Dave's. It's a crazy debate

To me the albums he made from Space Oddity to Alladin Sane are incredible. David Bowie and the Spiders were the second concert I went to (the first was T.Rex) as fresh faced 15 year old in 1972. As such it had an enormous impact on me. I went off his albums after 1973, although the Berlin trio brought me back again-especially Low and Heroes. After that-apart from the single Ashes to Ashes, me and David Bowie parted company for good. But those studio albums between 1969 and 1973-they still sound great to me and I still play each of them at least once every year. The two box sets chronicling these albums are worth getting-although there is a lot of duplication in the one featuring the Berlin albums. Two versions of Lodger and Stages are not needed. One thing that hasn't lasted so well with me are his live albums. I have got most of them from the 1970s-but not one of them, in my opinion , can hold a candle to the studio albums from the same period. He was great to SEE live-but the albums don't work so well. An example of the difference between a live concert, and a live recording.

After I finally listened to Black Star I went back and I agree. Those shows must have been awesome.

I always make it sound like it's a chore to go out and get the groceries. Are you sure you don't mind? No I don't mind you stay home enjoy yourself... And I crank the ever-loving s*** out of the car radio and put on something like this kick ass bonus disc from road trips 2011, specifically the China cats sunrider, which is now Dark Star. Add another couple songs to the sunny day drive list. Really are there any bad ones. Probably not. Last year. The August Dave's Picks 23 was not announced until the 24th of July. Still have at least a week.

....is apparently a comic book fan. Tired of all the superhero movies being pumped out the last decade or so? I'm not. I'm also not tired of grilled shrimp. Don't be bashful with the garlic.Charlie3 with the edgy joke. I chuckled....I also chuckled a lot reading Barlow's book. Down to the last fifty pages. King and HST await in the shadows. I can't read fast enough!

Maybe I've just played them too much. Another good one is the double Bowie at The Beeb, which covers really early songs, from 1967, up to 1972. It seems apparent to me also, listening now, that Bowie and The Spiders didn't play together for very long-or very often. Some of the meat and potatoes rock bands of the era, who had been around a bit longer-like Mott The Hoople-sound more powerful to me than The Spiders. One of the best Bowie live albums is from 1976-on the Station to Station tour. That's the opposite to his early 70s stuff to me-the live album works better than the studio Station. Seriously funky.

they change origins, they completely change the race of a character(to get a certain demographic), id rather just read em than watch em. I eventually got tired of Spider-Man the animated series towards the end cuz of that thing completely changing major story lines.
