    "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.

    Since you just signed up today, you might not be aware that you can contact Dr. Rhino or MaryE on here and they will kindly replace CD 1 and 2. Usually all you have to do is send them is your order number, and in a few weeks or so you receive replacement discs.

    Trainwrecked...yes, thanks, I will give more attention to the songs you mention - great song Cumberland, too. Those were my first impressions, and maybe the next time I play it all will be revealed.

    ELYCOI signed up on dead.net with 2 unplayable discs half an hour after DOCMARTY offered a free one. That one's going straight to eBay if he gets his hands on it.

    DAVEROCK I'm surprised you didn't like the opening Bertha. I think Bill sounds really really good and fills this rendition with energy. I'm not much of a Tennessee Jed fan but I thought that one was really good too. I thought the Cumberland Blues was a hot one too maybe a good one to revisit.

    Vol 32 - Serious errors - Discs 1 and 2 do not play or import

    Very frustrating. Anyone else have these issues? My discs 1 and 2 I feel like they are entirely blank.
    Am I alone?

    Extra Dave's 32

    Well now...… I received 2 copies of Dave's 32 here in England. I let the Doc (Rhino) know via the good lady Marye - he says to pass it on to a friend....and since you're all my friends on here (shout out esp to Daverock and KCJ) I'm happy to send it anywhere at no cost. Please pm me if interested as long as you agree not to resell on ebay etc ps it's unopened and still in shrinkwrap

    Takes a while to get going - DaP32

    Well, it arrived in good time, and it actually plays all the way through without any skips, hops or jumps. All of which is good and no longer guaranteed.

    I am not so sure about the first cd, though. This sounds very tame to me-no real energy at all. Its pleasant enough, but it could do with pepping up a bit.

    The second cd starts well with Here Comes Sunshine which twists and turns quite nicely, before a few more sleepers...then Playing. Someone else has mentioned this version-Frank, I think - and I agree with the comments made-this is a fantastic jam-light years ahead of anything on the previous 17(!) songs.
    And it does all pick up from this point on-the versions of Big River and Me and My Uncle cook nicely-much better than the playing on all of the first cd, which features similar songs.

    And the 3rd cd is great, too.

    So...a lot of good music. But a lot of filler, too.

    The 5.19.77 China Doll is sweet, but they miss the entire first verse.
    I'm used to it....

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!
