    "Cause it's always like that with the Dead, you know - it's always the whole thing." - News Journal

    As we close out the 2019 Dave Pick's series, we deliver on our promise to give you the "whole thing" with the complete performance from The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA 3/24/73 and what a show it was! An upstanding "musical eulogy" to the recently departed Pigpen, the Grateful Dead conducted a potent study in contrasts on this bittersweet night. They found easy balance between tidy jams like "They Love Each Other," "Wave That Flag," "Playing In The Band," and introspective moments on "Stella Blue," "Sing Me Back Home," and a poignant "He's Gone." It was all laid down with a discipline and a polish unheard of in any of the truly exceptional shows that had come before it. Yes, you might say, they cleaned up nice to carry on the legacy as Pig would have wanted.

    Limited to 20,000 numbered copies, DAVE’S PICKS VOLUME 32: THE SPECTRUM, PHILADELPHIA, PA 3/24/73 has been mastered to HDCD specs from the 7" and 10" reels by Jeffrey Norman.

    Funny, just recently listened to the live album The Name of This Band Is the Talking Heads, second disc with stuff recorded on the Remain In Light Tour '80-'81. Same order as the set list for that tour, cool stuff, in particular Born Under Punches smokes. Disc 1 is stuff from '77-'79, also good stuff. Been a while since I listened to any Talking Heads before that.

    Random side note, for a cool treat check out Jason Spooner's cover of Slippery People. YMMV but I dig it.

    Interesting to see peoples' choices for shows to see with a time machine.

    Five From the Past

    1. The Allman Brothers Band with Duane.

    2. The Who circa 1969-70 Tommy tour. They were better in 1975-76 according to John Entwistle, but I have a lot of bootlegs from the Tommy era, and they are on a tear every single night. Like the ABB, the setlist is virtually the same, but the way it was played differed.

    3. Grateful Dead 1969-74. Or to be at Barton Hall on Mother's Day 1977. I've seen most post-Jerry iterations, as well as Old and in the Gray before Vassar passed. But never got to see Jerry in action. Hard to really nail down a year, 1969, I could get Dark Star and Other One both, but no Wharf Rat. I love the jazzy jams of '73, but would love to have seen, felt, heard, and experienced the Wall of Sound.

    4. The Talking Heads Stop Making Sense tour 1983. Again, a band doing the same setlist, this one completely planned and choreographed by David Byrne, just genius and high performance art. It is just a powerhouse performance all the way through. They are the one band I'd pay anything to see on tour if they got back together.

    5. Pink Floyd in the Syd Barrett era, at Pompeii in 1971, and at Radio City Music Hall in 1973 with the Grateful Dead in the row in front of me watching them play Dark Side of the Moon and encore with Echoes.

    5a. The Ramones at CBGB.

    Guilty as charged by the Spanish Inquisition. Bet you didn't expect that.

    Five performers I would love to see...
    1) Joplin
    2) The Doors
    3) Miles Davis and John Coltrane together
    4)Weather Report
    5)Led Zep

    I was going to pass on the Songs for Groovy Children, Hendrix release , but bought it because of all the positive comments here. Sure glad I did - love it! Been spending the last week working my way thru all the shows song by song. Thanks for the suggestion - the great things about this group are the informed musical insights and overall positive vibe.

    Take care...

Hi All,

As of yesterday a replacement copy of Dave's Picks Volume 32 arrived and was in mint condition. It took 3 months and a few contacts to customer support and Marye, but I've finally got it and that may mean there is some hope for others that may be waiting on an initial or replacement copy of this installment.

One thing to mention. It is a numbered copy and a low one at that -- #544. Seems kind of odd that this Volume 32 sold out and I'm getting one that is numbered. This is not a complaint, but just saying...

A BIG THANKS to Marye for her help on my issue because I am sure it was her inquires to The Doc that made this eventually happen.

Good luck to all that are still waiting for a Volume 32. Hopefully, Help Is On The Way!
