    "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.

    Beer I like

    Hey Now! b.c.boot from No. Cal. here.
    I don’t post a lot to the dead.net forums, occasionally I will, but I Do like to lurk here. You all have “tapped” into something I am super passionate about, BEER.
    Currently, I am excited to drink beers from Modern Times Beer out of San Diego.
    However, the Russian River Brewing Co out of Santa Rosa/Windsor CA is like a mythical beast that you have to hunt for if you don’t live in the region. Their double IPA “Pliny the Elder” is well worth the hunt, and folks from all over make a pilgrimage to Santa Rosa/Windsor once a year on the first Friday of February when the Brewery taps their “Pliny the Younger” an epic Triple IPA.
    My current favorite joint to visit for a taste of something new is owned by a fellow Dead Head in Arcata, CA. His place is called Dead Reckoning Tavern and features 40 or so taps plus a bottle room called The Cellar, they cater to, “the craft beer, small batch, beer lover.”

    “Keep your libraries, your penal institutions, your insane asylums… give me beer. You think Man needs rule, he needs beer. The world does not need morals, it needs beer… The souls of men have been fed with indigestibles, but the soul could make use of beer.” - Henry Miller

    “Ah, beer, the cause of and the solution to all of life’s problems” - Homer Simpson

    My fellow Dead Heads

    DEADTONY; dude, your hardcore...sounds like a stomach ache, lol

    CARLO; you crack me up, that sounds like one hell of a shirt...I’ll need to research that.

    DAVEROCK; spot on commentary as usual...just wondering, back when you did walk the boards, what was your poison of choice, G&T, the British National beverage, or is that just yankee stereotype?

    DEADVIKES/BREWER; not sure why, but just reading or saying Summit Extra Pale Ale gives me some weird atavistic stirring....the can being a deep sorta pine green, holding some deep promise of say late May or early June when it’s starting to (hopefully) warm up, but there’s still a nice chill to the air from the snow still on the peaks.....I swear I can taste it! We’ll have to hunt that one down.
    Brewer, I’m with you, I’m not a hop head, there are many I enjoy, but my preference is Ales, Porters and Stouts. That Utepils sounds beery interesting!
    Speaking of beers/preferences, as a brewer, I’m curious of your opinion? To me it seems like the trends have really leaned hard toward hops, hops, hops, and fruity this and that, farmhouse, saison, etc, which is fine, except that it seems like the old stalwart Ales, Stouts and Porters have been somewhat forgotten? Or is that just old curmudgeon me? Damn kids, get off my lawn, and take that double, Super hopped, hint of cucumber, with a touch of mint, filtered through coffee, barrel aged in watermelon soaked casks, then cold filtered on the third full moon of the year...

    Kid; thanks for all the good tips over the years, and for consistently cracking me up....man sounds like you’ve been a connoisseur of all things swill back in the day just like us, LOL. You’ve brought back some memories of beers/times long forgotten, which is probably good😉 I feel like if we’d known each other back then we’d have definitely been trouble, and I mean that in a good way!

    Buenos Dead days Mi Amigos!

    “Like dating a supermodel”

    “Man, there has been a lot of 77 released. 77 used to be my favorite year. I don't know.. 1977 is sort of like dating a supermodel.. it's great for a while but eventually you crave something that's imperfectly brilliant in it's own way, the '85 discussion is a perfect example, I might substitute '74 or '68. I have a high opinion of 1985...”

    Jim, once again you’ve done it! That’s the best description of 77 I’ve ever heard and is partially why 77 is not my favorite year. Too clean, yaddy, yaddy, yada...don’t get me wrong, definitely should be considered in the mix for an objective consideration of an overall top year list, just not this weirdos list😀

    Cold rain and snow

    Went from snow, to freezing rain, to rain here.
    Supposed to rain most of the day and then temps drop with high of 26 Sunday and Monday.
    3-day MLK weekend. I stocked up at the grocery store yesterday in preparation of weather and icy roads. Hope the power doesn’t go out.
    Have 5 cases of beer consisting of mixed brands and varieties in the collection (2 cases are various barrel aged stouts that are aging, so I won’t be pounding those, but will have 1 or 3).
    Going to fire up the GOGD and get some projects done inside the house.

    DaP 33 in the mailbox next weekend?
    That would be nice, but it’s questionable whether that warehouse can actually get the job done.

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!
