    "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.

    My 5-cents......Any book written by Nick Hornby is well worth reading. You can start with Fever Pitch(even if you're a Liverpool fan), and go from there, but really, you can start anywhere. If you love humor, great writing, and music(!!),
    you can't go wrong. For the music fan, perhaps start with "Juliet, Naked", and go from there.

    Some good books, and some good Dead.

    Is it still socially acceptable, then, to smoke weed in the States where it has been legalized ? It must have a very different image for a 16year old living in such a State to the one it had for me back in Oldham in 1973.

    Maybe with naming strains or naming anything else, come to that, it makes a difference if the individual associated is still alive to give their consent to having their name used.

    I haven't read either Ulysses or Moby Dick, I am ashamed to say. Two I have on the go at the moment are Rob Young's excellent "Electric Eden : Unearthing Britain's Visionary Music," and " Fiends in the Furrows ", and anthology of folk horror short stories that has just been published.

    Oh, yes...I listened to The Dead this morning. Dave's Picks 6, to be precise - the 12/20/69 show. You have to be careful, because the excellent second set is on the second half of the second cd, followed by the first set on the 3rd. There is also a Lovelight which kicks off the 3rd cd which is only marginally shorter than Moby Dick.

    Oh yeah--Moby Dick!

    I KNEW there was one more thing I was going to say in my previous post. I started it (for the first time) about four years ago, then abandoned it about 200 pages in. Two years ago I started it again, but only made it about 150 pages in. This fall I re-started it again, determined that the third time would be the charm. This time I'm allowing myself to skip the chapters where Melville describes whale anatomy and the chapters where he references every ancient myth and text known to humans. This time I'll make it.

    Purchased (and loved) A Prayer for Owen Meany from a recommendation from this chat group. A while back I also picked up a copy of V by Pynchon because of someone here mentioning it, but I haven't started that one. I own Ulysses, and will try it one of these days . . .

    Great book? Cry, the Beloved Country. Sula by Toni Morrison. Birds Without Wings. The Things They Carried. Steppenwolf. (don't get me started . . . )

    LMG admit it. The jig is up. The waist is in the pants. The plain has left the station. If the foo shits, wear it, as my dentist says. Or was it something about my teeth? In any event, when this many people call you out your best bet is to fade away, and run your monte on the other side of the tracks for a while. Sell your grilled cheese at the other exit as it were. But who am I to give advice? Just a guy on the internet. Mighty swell be a bot, or a russian. Lots of russkies around these days. Just not in major events they tell me.

    I tried Ulysses years ago, and failed. Vowed when I turned 40 I'd try it again, and finish. So it was. A few months ago I got through it. Can't say I understood more than 35% or so. But its part of the can(n)on, right? A few phrases that stuck with me:

    What's a pier? A disappointed bridge.

    God made food, the devil the cooks.

    Whichever way the cat jumps.

    Short story long Ulysses is worth the effort, although if I read it again i'll read the Odyssey first. Leopold's stream of conscious is where it's at. A readers' guide definitely helps, no shame here. Plenty are available online. For the best authors the real nut is in the re-read, which deadheads should be familiar with. Same with Pynchon, who I consider to be the master of 20th century literature. I can't wait to read Mason & Dixon again.

    Still waiting for that '84 halloween dead sweatshirt I ordered in early October. Warehouse issues they say. Who am I to argue? I don't need amazon style broken bone high stakes empty pool high wire Larry Darrell razor's edge envelope pushing without a net highest ladder step can of corn Randy Johnson fastball sort of delivery. When somebody has a minute just slap a barcode on it and toss it in the van with the next Dave's, right?

    Not totally stoked about another '77 show as the gemstone of next year's series, but I do consider 2019 to be perhaps the best year of Dave's . I did miss year one.

    I'm on board with Gainesville needing to be released. Love to see that as a Dave's. And a '71 Cap Theater box would be fantastic for the new decade.

    Sorry for rambling. No offense meant to anyone, I love this place. Good times good music good vibes. Now where is that traffic light? This should be easy for a bot.

    Charlie, Glass Houses from Billy Joel, wow!
    That was my first concert. Went to see Billy Joel at the St. Paul Civic Center in 1980 or 81. My Dad took me and a buddy. I think we were in fourth grade. I remember my Dad commenting on some guys near us were smoking pot. Crazy memory.
    Deadheadbrewer-
    I am interested in your thoughts on that Marantz CD player you just bought. I was looking at that one as well and thought, will it really give me better sound than I have now?? Interesting to me also that you do not notice any better sound with your HDCD player. I keep thinking I need to find one to get that additional 4 bits.

    James Joyce. Never read any of his books, but I understand they are quite the grind.

    This summer I started Moby Dick. Got about 50 pages in. Brought it to the pool one day and a woman walked up and said it was the most boring book she ever read. Stopped reading it right there.

    Currently about 80 pages into The Brothers Karamazov. It’s a bit of a struggle, but I understand it is worth it. Crime and Punishment is one of the best books I have ever read.

    Other books that can be a bear, but are totally worth it - A Prayer for Owen Meany and A Gentleman in Moscow.

    Merry Christmas to all.

There is little doubt in my mind that if the 4 minute passage had come before the 20 minute jam that it would have been tracked as a 24 minute Dark Star

SMBH; love that song, Merle’s is great but I think Jer makes it his own and thus takes it to another level.
It’s like watching old yeller, how the hell can you really listen to this, especially after some psychedelic, emotional roller coaster space voyage, and not get choked up. Like Jim said about third person....imagine you’ve spent that kind of time with another human being, no matter what their crime, and so you’re kinda going through all that with the person, truly heavy shit, which is powerful to imagine. I understand some folks might not be comfortable with such heaviness, and yes the guy did a terrible thing, but hey, isn’t that the one thing ALL humans have in comman....we’re all fuckups and do horrible things to each other? So to stand in that persons shoes emotionally for a few minutes is really powerful. To offer that tortured soul that one “kind favor” in spite of what he did, isn’t that also what makes us human, that ability to be em empathetic, to forgive, to occasionally be “truly excellent to each other”?
To me the juxtaposition between all that heaviness with such awesome, powerful, and emotional vocals etc, phew, gives me goosebumps just talking about it! I’ve said before, one of the things that makes the Dead so great is their use of dynamics. The ebb and flow between all that R&R energy and the power, and emotion of the ballads. The ridiculous loudness balanced by the quietness. That to me is it right there, their ability to be so quite that it’s loader, and more powerful than the loudest, most balls out rocker! Perhaps Dew is the best example, though you could through Stella and others in that mix...and the lyrical content, not too many smoochy syrupy sappy crap, real intellectual stuff, real meat and potatoes, shit to make you think! Real thinking, something truly lacking these days...
Also, besides the back story of how prison changed Merle, Johnny Cash Playing there while Merle was there supposedly had a huge influence on him too. I guess sometimes you get shown the light in the strangest of places.....
VINCE; too funny! You know the more I listen to Vince, the more I’m opening up to him. I think a lot of my indifference to him was because of those often cheesy sounds that weren’t his doing but Braloves. That and I’m sorry to offend any aficionados, but I couldn’t stand Way to go Home. One of a few in the late days that I wasn’t a fan of...
But what I meant to say was I was disappointed because when I saw Kids post I was thinking “our” Vince, that’s right folks the one and only Vguy! I’d give up my front row seat in Hell to see a video of OUR Vince playing WPOD! Lol
CASEY JANES; .....and so it begins😉
Well, hopefully I can finally check out 32 tonight, it’s been a very long week and ole uncle Pedro needs to go bye, bye for a few hours and I’m hoping number 32 will do the job!
Hope all y’all have a great weekend!

1969 (Dick's Picks 16 - MONSTER 2nd Set, Dark Star Medley.. if you don't know it, you deserve to. You'll thank yourself later.)

1979 (Cap Center - My good friend's 1st show, 40 years ago. Check out the SUPER slow Stagger Lee, solid Scarlet>Fire, Brent's first Dew, and I believe the only one played in 79... it's def. different, in a good way I think :)

1985 (War Memorial, Rochester - The one I am listening to now... great sounding AUD! Seriously,... if you don't think you like AUDs, check this out! I'll post the link below. Great energy, Jerry in fine form, a little sloppy, very interesting set list, including the rare Brent tune "Baby What You Want Me To Do", a "Revolution" 2nd set opener, and an absolutely GORGEOUS "She Belongs to Me" - If you check out anything from this day in GD history, this "She Belongs to Me" should be first on the list. Why did they drop this song so quickly? - also, anyone else notice that they tended to play good/great shows at the War Memorials? Rochester, Buffalo, and in honor of Veteran's Day, New Haven -- though not technically called War Memorial...)

https://archive.org/details/gd85-11-08.aud-oade.dwonk.22023.sbeok.shnf/…

1987 (Oakland - admittedly, 87 is a year I know little about, but this show certainly looks good on paper, and I listened to yesterday's 87 show, and it was really good. This one has an Iko opener, and a rare Tom Thumbs Blues encore.)

Oh, and there is a Jerry Band from 76 that was released as GarciaLive Vol. 7

Not a lot to choose from, but all choices are solid. And it's a Friday... it's a good day :)

Peace, and have a great weekend everyone!

I have had an email telling me #32 has shipped. No indication of how so I can’t currently try to track it, at the worst it should be with me by early December. I am looking forward to hearing it.

On a separate point. I was a long time subscriber to a UK based magazine fRoots which finally closed down this summer after 40 years writing about folk and roots music from around the world. The editor, for the whole 40 years, Ian A Anderson has been hit by a large cash demand from the banks which after 40 years of dedicated promotion of so many musicians and types of music seem harsh. A GoFundMe has been set up to help pay the debt. If anyone has a spare few dollars they could do worse than assist him. The address is below.

Let’s hope for some more great GD music next year.

Thanks for the observation about SMBH. I just got the pick in the mail so I'm not there yet, but I'm looking forward to the 3rd disc in particular, and I love the context you put the song in. So interesting how bands like the dead and phish can change your perspective on a song you thought you knew just by setting it up in a particular way in the set list.

Yass, yass, yasss twas a fine evening, that turned into my Bday...
Great fun, did the fungal high step in front of the SB, although one of the 2 nights I was front row for the first set?
We basically owned the nearby hotel those 2 nights. Seemed like we knew everyone that was staying there and TPTB left us all alone. Listened to 84 Rochester yesterday at work for the first time.....better than I recall, not a bad show. Unfortunately don’t remember much....maximum veggie overdrive in the front row!
Thanks for the link, that’ll get me through today. Perhaps that 11/8/69 monster tonight, then, finally, 32 tomorrow?
But of course the great 73 box anniversary this weekend also....so much great Dead, so little time!

Man, sounds like a nice time! Oh to actually have that Wayback Machine up an running...

Reminds me of a time in Hershey, PA where the entire hotel was filled with heads after a Phish show... we didn't have a room, but there were so many funky looking people in and out and about all night, we were able to catch winks in a conference room, as long as one or two of us was a lookout, sleeping in shifts. Oh, to be a teenager again...

Have a great weekend, my man!

From my experience of life, people who are convicted of murder are not necessarily any better or worse than those who aren't. Two people I remember particularly-a woman who killed her abusive partner, and a man who killed someone who had been sleeping with his wife. As I understood it, neither planned it. Drugs, alcohol, anger...I don't condone violent behaviour, but it surely helps to try and understand people rather than condemn them out of hand. By convicting them, the law has already done that.

What time is house warming tomorrow?? I'm down in R.I. Both kids in college... Bob t

Reminds of the 28 minute Jam on disc 3 of Dicks Picks 12 (6/28/74 Boston Garden). To me.. it's one big Dark Star hold the vocals.

When I heard the seaside chat language on the long jam into the short Dark Star, I thought.. the Dark Star Jam's in the beginning this time and didn't give it another thought. How many E72 versions are there where they don't start singing until like 20 minutes into it?

Ok.. helavu week here, and I am now freezing my ass off. I think I am going to warm up the headphone amp, hit the hot tub and watch the sun set.. add in freshie listen of The Spectrum, some of Washington's finest and welcome a well deserved start to the weekend.

Whichever way the cat jumps I'll be listening to the dead at some point tonight though. I hope everyone's enjoying the new Spectrum show. I'm loving it - and only through Tenn Jed so far.

I must make special mention of the Look Like Rain. What a great version.

Hey guys, maybe you should let it go. There are a lot of honest dead heads on this site, that is for sure. Impossible to verify everything. Keep the faith for the good ones, you know who they are.

Bob T. Love the Winterland 73 box set, so good, and how about a three song encore on the closing night. I know we would have killed for that closing in the 80s.

Joy, joy to ole Nappy! That musta been one hell of a night! I just did 11/8/69, phew, that one covers a lot of ground. Perhaps THE transitional axis show? 11/8/85 at work today thanks to Otis!
ROTARY PHONE; too funny, that’s one of the things I kept of my Mothers after she passed 3 years ago, her rotary on Wall Phone that was in her kitchen until right before we sold the place. I plan to eventually at least hang it somewhere (if not hot it up) as not only a remembrance, but to honor her Luddite self!
Old Lee Estee and the gang used to be able to pump out a few gigiwatts on some nights! If only we could bottle the shit!
WAY BACK/SIXTUS and the gang; now if only Jim had that damn way back working he could swing by and pick us up and get us back to the Start of the Sixtus house warming shin dig!

Thanks vguy. I did that once (the 2 asterisks) but I was embarrassed it was a rookie way to delete post but now I feel (less) of a dolt thanks to you.

It must have been amazing to see them ( indoors) in 1969 - and with B.B. King and Ike and Tina Turner in support too. Get Yer Ya Ya's Out has never dated.
Having said that, I don't think I'll be rushing out to get the new super deluxe bells and no whistles 50th anniversary edition of Let It Bleed .

According to the Guardian newspaper this morning, there is a cassette revival taking place in Britain at the moment. Apparently, "Cassettes give every album an overture of clunk and rattle, and they confer a strange, transgressive mastery on the listener:" Also..."if you decide you don't like the music, you can just record over it with something better." Fancy that.
