    "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.

    Sounds like Jim has been using the Palantir again. Now where did I put my stained and hole ridden tan tunic...

    It was cool seeing Bobby at the Rex Benefit at the Fillmore a couple weekends ago. I was fortunate to hang before the show in the hall while he did a long rehearsal with the house band. And a beautiful rendition of American Beauty, song by song.

    I have not heard Meat Light

    surely worth checking out

    odd way that I heard Uncle Meat back in the day

    My dad was a prof at a college
    apparently some students gave it to him
    I doubt he listened
    but I did
    it blew my lil' 6th or 7th grade mind
    because at that time I didn't realize that an album could be ART
    meaning more than just a collection of songs

    "I must be free"

    I played much of it for my kids for the humorousness
    but I had to edit parts of Suzy Creamcheese

    Sleeping in a Jar creeped out one of my chillun

    sleeping in a jar
    the jar is under the bed"

    @STOLTZFUS...

    I see in your last five you have "Uncle Meat"...one of my all time faves and my favorite Mothers line up and era...have you heard the three disc reissue "Meat Light" that has the original mix plus tons of others stuff like the original pre-release version? If you enjoy "Uncle Meat" this will grab you too...

    Since i have no memory a shout out and thanks to whoever mentioned the Santana - McLaughlin release, need to get that puppy...as for my Wife and box sets she first will ask "Don't you already have that?" "Yeah in a way but not like this"..."Oh..." last purchases have been the Jimi set, two Dick's Picks I didn't have, The Kinks "Arthur", and a bunch of old Blues & Jazz reissues...next is "Hot Rats" this coming Friday...

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!
