    "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.

    ...I mean, you KNOW when you HEAR IT!

    As noted this is one of those.

    It just SMOKES.

    Take Jimmy up on his delivery, the Charlie Miller is absolutely fantastic.
    Even as a solo disc release, this would knock anyone's psychedelic socks right off their toes.

    Glad to make the recommendation and happier for the enthusiastic uptake.

    How October 12, 1968 has eluded release for as long as it has. Dave's Picks 6 already shows us that they're willing to put two shows on one 3-disc Dave's Picks. I'm more amped about this show than I was for the Greek Theater 30 Trips release. Mind blown.

    Daverock , I noticed Pigpen's distinctive organ melody was missing from Dark Star. But then I thought it was him playing the washboard, maybe due to some organ problem, abd Mickey on the maracas. Then later you can hear someone say I thought we were doing alligator, but it ended up being death has no mercy. He must have been off playing grab-ass with Janis.

    I've got a lossless copy of the Charlie Miller transfer. If anyone would like it.. PM me and I will get it to you.

    I'm sure it's as good as the bootleg CD version floating around, maybe even better.

    MLB-I just got it from Amazon. UK that is. Its one of the multitude of FM releases that have come out over the last few years from sources unknown. Maybe they aren't available in the US.

    Daverock, where can I get 10/12/68 on CD? I wasn't aware.

    Very powerful show-it came out on cd recently. With no keyboard textures from Pigpen, who didn't play at this gig, or TC , who hadn't joined yet, it a hot guitar, bass and double drum explosion.

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!
