    "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.

    re: By The Riverside

    ...also caught the 'riverside chat' last evening, a different twist on his usual waterside rants. Admittedly, he was as antsy as ever, lookin' over his shoulder for bears and other potential stalking wildlife. He was giddy as a school boy to zoom in on a deer at the end.

    I think a decked-out action figure of Dave would be amazing. It would come with a special thumb drive that directly connects to the vault via wifi so you can stream any show directly from the source. That's just one gadget included along with a 1/6 scale version of the $1300 fly rod. It also comes with night vision goggles so you can pretend your Dave is truly hunting 'Squach under the moonlight. Midnight Moonlight.

    Oh yeah I also found it interesting about the apparent dual-recordings that were taken during this show with the two sets of reels. I think I recall he said this was among the batch of returned reels from a few years back - is that right? If so that might explain the discrepancy or variation in the source material sound.

    Riverside Chat

    I watched the riverside chat last night too.. different, and for the first time since 2012, no wind or Russian submarines or container boats in the background.

    The nervous twitching this time around was bear related.. probably a valid concern, but he seemed to misdiagnose the mountain lion waiting, poised to pounce, just off camera at the very end.

    Nice pickup on the $1,300 fly rod, but in Dave's defense he probably got it for free from the manufacturer. And then there's what at first glance appears to be a $180 Simms Fly Fishing Vest all decked out with related paraphernalia. A little over the top even for the most avid angler.. but a closer inspection reveals this to be a $4,700 top of the line Simms GPS Enabled, Motion Detecting Sasquatch stalking vest. A must have for any serious Big Foot enthusiast. It fills in some of the gaps and clues from some of other river and seaside chats, the log-rolling video from 2014 comes to mind.. of course you need to brush up on your log rolling skills if you ever expect to safely evade an irate, perhaps hungry, short tempered British Columbia Sasquatch. Have you ever seen a 9 foot tall Big Foot successfully log roll across a swift moving, salmon-filled river? It's not gonna happen and Dave's gonna escape from these monsters, unscathed every single time.

    Anyway.. this video seems to give a more complete picture of the real Dave, although it does little to resolve the ongoing rumors that Dave was replaced by a Rhino manufactured robot or cyborg back in 2015.

    I think we should convince Hasbro to make a David Lemieux version of GI Joe, the David Lemieux Fly Fishing, Sasquatch Stalking Action Figure. ..unless of course Rhino is already in conversations with Mattel to make the David Lemieux Ken Inspired Action Figure complete with Barbie's younger, hotter, tie-dye wearing hippie sister Loose Lucy? Either way it's win/win.

    Next up, the 2020 Dave's Picks 33 Paragliding Cliff-Side Chat. "Whooe, close call.. was that a Peregrine Falcon? I'm gonna turn the camera around right after I land on this rock outcropping in the field below. ...so like I was saying, can you hear me through the wind? Great show, hit pause on the video right now and buy this because it's not going to last long."

    Man, you got to love the "Riverside Chat". What a life for our leader Dave!
    4 hours plus until it sold out, I was way off.
    Interesting to hear Dave talk about two separate recordings for this show with two separate mixes. I wonder how and why that happened, but I still think the returned 10 inch reels were recorded by Rex. Kidd Candelerio for the 7 inch reels?

    Dave mentioned Dick's 36 from the Spectrum in September in 72 and he is right, this one rocks as well. Bear did a great job on that one.
    Dave's 33, isn't there a show from the Spectrum in April 77? Long shot for sure. Still they will keep the 77 train rolling with this year. October?

    I just snagged one copy for my ALS afflicted friend. He lives at a nursing facility in Newtown Square. I (well the wife it's my Christmas present from her) subscribed last year on Halloween. It truly is about the music & not the money, yet I've had to get a few volumes off eBay for trading purposes, I NEVER resell I give & when I do the volume is always sealed & brand new. I've taken care of a few people here on this forum with free copies and didn't not even charge for shipping. If I have an extra SEALED copy I give it away, isn't that what you're supposed to do?

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!
