    "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.

    Kinda like...

    ...Stuck In The Middle With You now only reminds me of Reservoir Dogs, Crystal Blue Persuasion now reminds me of Breaking Bad.

    If you're going to play some Tommy James & the Shondells, include Crystal Blue Persuasion on the playlist. Crimson and Clover is cool, but Crystal Blue Persuasion...it's a new vibration.

    Never a big fan of the GD dancing bears, except one time

    Too cutesy, in my haughty opinion

    I like skull/skeleton GD imagery

    but anyway

    I had a sticker of an orange GD bear holding a rose on my walkman

    One special day in the woods (ok, a park) that bear smiled at me and started dancing

    So dah bearss are ok, after all

    ok, one more bear story....

    My brother-in-law is a Jersey City boy, born and raised. At some point many years ago we went camping with my wife's entire family in northwest Massachusetts. My brother-in-law has never been camping and is worried about bears. My father-in-law who grew up in that part of Mass. says he's NEVER seen a bear there in his 50 years and that Bob needn't worry. First day there, out walking around and bang there are a couple of bears just walking down the road towards us. Till this day Bob will bring up the bears that "didn't" exist!

    Off to Jersey for bird-day and a wedding (who the hell gets married the day after thanksgiving!!!!)

    Hope all enjoy their birds.

    Deadheads and Yetis and Bears, Oh My!

    This Thread has been an amazing and actually a quite typical morphing discussion over the past 24 hours.

    Simple mention of a potential Yeti sighting has turned into a full-blown Grateful Dead dancing bear history lesson, complete with visions of actual swirling bears, as well as so many other bear stories and personal references it's extremely insightful and very amusing.

    Also I almost fell off my chair when I saw that the GD team has actually acknowledged the issue with the shipping per that copy/paste from Icecreamcone Kid (and then saw in my own email inbox) and they are actually paying attention here! Well done people. Stuff that one in your turkey and enjoy it.

    Happy Thanksgiving to All In Deadheadland!
    Bears and Yetis should play nice and turn up the GD to 11.

    Well how ‘bout that

    They did address the issue, finally.
    For those who didn’t read or get the email, here’s a portion of it.

    It's been quite a year and we know how patient you have been, how patient you still are. It has always been, and will always be, our mission to provide the best service to you, the fans. As you are more than likely aware, a complex warehouse move resulted in a significant backlog of orders and while that warehouse is working as quickly as they can to deliver, we've turned 100% of our focus and dedication toward a new facility which promises to restore peace to the Dead.net community in the next few months. Trust us, this steam locomotive is rolling down the track!

    Now, how about fixing the CD manufacturing process so that when the goods are in fact delivered, that they are not defective.

    Listening to spoonful by cream. Just found it in an old CD box. I'm so glad, I'm so glad, I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad.

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!
