    "We were in the Pacific Northwest...between somewhere in Washington and some other where in Oregon. The road took us to the lip on a ridge, from where we could see around us for many miles in all directions … It was breathtaking to behold, but as we watched, we had a firm realization that we were witnessing something even more beautiful than our eyes could ever take in … Life causes life. Heaven and Earth dance in this way endlessly, and their child is the forest. And so there we were, epiphanously watching that grandest and most glorious dance of life—of which we are just a tiny part—awed by a magnificence without beginning, without end..."

    Bob Weir, “Sell Headwaters—Everyone Wins,” San Francisco Chronicle

    The Pacific Northwest offers up a rich feast of land, sky, and water. It is ripe with influences, abundant with symbols, deep and spirited. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that the Grateful Dead played some of their most inspired shows on these fertile grounds. It does, however, sometimes take a breath for the elements to re-align years later. It seems for us, they finally have and we are able to present not just a glimpse of the band's extraordinary exploratory tour through the region, but a two-tour bounty as the PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS.

    For PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS, we've paired two short runs made up of six previously unreleased shows - P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, B.C. (6/22/73); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (6/24/73); Seattle Center Arena, Seattle, WA (6/26/73); P.N.E. Coliseum, Vancouver, Canada (5/17/74); Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR (5/19/74); and Hec Edmundson Pavilion, University of Washington, Seattle, WA (5/21/74). Each show has been mastered in HDCD from the original master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering. The transfers from the masters were transferred and restored by Plangent Processes, further ensuring that this is the best, most authentic that these shows have ever sounded.

    PACIFIC NORTHWEST ’73-’74: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS comes in an ornate box created by Canada’s preeminent First Nations artist Roy Henry Vickers (more on this tremendous artist soon). To complement the music, the set also includes a 64-page book with an in-depth essay by Grateful Dead scholar Nicholas G. Meriwether and photos by Richie Pechner.

    Due September 7th, this release is limited to 15,000 individually numbered copies and available exclusively from dead.net. You'll want to grab a copy while you can and sit back, relax, and enjoy all the exclusive content we'll be rolling out over the next few weeks.

    Looking for something a little more byte-sized? The collection will also be available for HD digital download in FLAC and ALAC, exclusively at dead.net, on release day. You can pre-order it now too.

    Get it while you can.

    I have said it before, the complete 10/74 recordings need to be released. It will right a wrong that was perpetrated as early as 1976 .

    Jim not only 9/9, 9/10, 9/11, but all 5 of the October Winterland shows. (August 4,5,6) and ( June 16, and 18), and (June 26 and June 28).. So 15 out of 40 possible shows were released but not the whole shows!! Let's hope for a future release of Europe 74, or the October 74 Winterland complete shows!!

    73 jams

    12-10-73 from the download series has a lovely, long and liquidy 20 min. Playin' to close out the 1st set. It would make for an excellent side on a Record Store Day release someday.

    The more I listen, the more I love long and liquidy Playin's, and Eyes. Those two stand right up there with Dark Stars and Other Ones as jam vehicles.

    Also, wanted to note that I, like a lot of you, found that several of my discs from this box don't play cleanly. However, I've found that in every case they ripped cleanly, and the digital files play just fine. So that's just how I've listened. If you're having trouble with getting replacement discs, try that.

    Peace Out

    No puns intended. 4/21/72, they bust into "The Other One," with a ferocity seldom heard. Beat Club, Bremen, West Germany. There's so much about that tour that is just mind melting and this is a prime example.

    I love the 1973, 1974, 1976 stuff, and I've been dipping into that lately as well, and then this came on.

    Just... holy shit.

    Yes, they butchered Dicks Picks 7. One of my early favorite releases (add 12 to the same list).. it suffers horribly from the chop job they did. They seemed to really like to tear up 1974, the WOS road trips was similarly butchered. I would have enjoyed getting those three shows as a box set.

    It is true that 1974 suffers from not always having continuous flow and an inconsistent set structure.. but we would have benefited from the full show treatment. That Dark Star > Morning Dew from the night before resonates, glows and smolders like an erupting volcano.

    1974 Ultimate Show

    Ok, I love all of 1974... released but not really is September 11, 1974 Alexandra Palace. What i think sums up the whole year, especially the Europe show is this follow sequence. Ok the end of the first set, Playing in the Band, 23.24 minutes.... Followed by Phil and Ned at 11.39 minutes, pure Phil and Ned.... Here is where it gets awesome, Seastones at 30.40 minutes with lots of Jerry early on, around 23 minutes you can here Eyes of the World!! The 18.03 Eyes with Ned playing electric piano is just sooooo good. Then 3.07 minutes of Stronger than Dirt into a 13.10 minute Wharf Rat.... So 1 hour and forty minutes of pure Jazzy 1974 Bliss...

    I'm also ok with heavy '73…

    I'm also ok with heavy '73-ness in the upcoming years. Would also like the 2nd half of '72 in there and the two '74 Dark Star shows that have yet to be released.

    I didn't care for U.S. Blues for a very long time, and then I saw that crowd shot from the Grateful Dead Movie where they're singing along from the first few rows, going nutso. Then I thought whoa, steady boy...what did you miss here? And then when DaP 13 came out, I got into that particular version. There's something about that one I like, but not too many others capture it (whatever "it" is). I think the Road Trips '74 version was the other one. I don't care much for the post-hiatus versions at all. From '76, I find Road Trips 4.5 and DL Series pretty good, but for the most part everything attractive about the tune is lost in the post-hiatus polish (1, 2 buckle-my-shoe). But I know what you mean Jimbo - I can't get into One More Saturday Night from any era.

    The China Cat Sun Rider's from '73 / '74 are also high on my list of go to songs for that era.

    '73 Redux

    I would go so far as to welcome an official release of 2/9/93, Maples Pavilion, Stanford.

    It's far from the best of the '73, and if I am correct.. they blew out the PA at some point in the first set, causing some major technical anomalies.. and the performance is far from the top 10. Still, it's unique, quite good and bordering on historical. They Eyes of the World (the first and into China Doll), is what made me think to write this, is unique. A lobbing, meandering, bit of a art in progress. The China Rider is noteworthy also.

    It's a classic.. and back to the Eyes.. what a great way to welcome in the Wake of the Flood material. Seven new songs that night. P.S. I loathe Wave That Flag, sorry to all that like that song, simply doesn't resonate with me.

    A very good evening in Palo Alto and I think release worthy.

    The next five or so years will be 73 heavy. I'm ok with that.

    Eyes of the World

    I played 18th September 1974 Paris earlier this week, too-and-and agree-beautiful Eyes. I too enjoy the 1974 Eyes more than other years-with 1973 coming a close second. Incidentally-slight vocal drop out again on a couple of songs-I wonder if this was a feature of 74 shows?

    I have also just been listening to the second set 0f Omaha 5th July 1978 second set-and the Estimated-Eyes jam there is superbly played. They always seemed to play it a tad to quickly for me from 1976 onwards-but this one hits the spot. Excellent tone on Jerrys guitar, and nice jazz chords towards the end of the jam. I also liked Phil's solo leading into drums. This is a show completely off my radar-maybe overshadowed in my mind by the big hitters-7th and 8th July- to come? A bit like so many of the Europe 72 shows, something of a hidden gem. All box sets have nuggets in them that I can initially overlook through the sheer volume of music available and from me focussing on the best -or best known- shows in the collection.

Mrs Deadguys email is SpamFolder@Junkmail.com. I'm sure she will be happy to chat with Mrs Charlie3 :) I have a finite amount of room allocated to store *my* things. Adding new things sometimes requires eliminating old things. You can see my dilemma. Icecrmcnkd (sp?) That was a clutch post about the HD FLACs. I barely understood most of it, except the part where he says 24/192 is actually worse where it tries to be better. I don't know enough about the physics of acoustics to argue that point. But IMHO the quality of the recording and mastering far out weighs the digital format differences anyway, We know this will be a top shelf recording; it will still sound good on a crappy streaming app.

Bonjour Gary. J'espère que tu vas bien. A year ago, I decided to stop buying CDs from the Dead because my shelves are almost full and I have so much music to listen that I will not have enough years in front of me to listen to everything enough times. I told myself that I will be an exception for some concerts that are not yet released in official and that I adore. Among them: the concert of December 31, 1972 (of which we speak little, I find), that of October 28, 1990 (because it is the last time I saw the Dead on stage) and that of May 19, 1974. What was my joy the other day when I saw this concert pre-order with five other concerts! My Dead shelves will be quite full in September.

everton, try a couple of things: 1. Look at your cookie settings. If they're not already, try setting them to accept "all" or "from visited" sites - I had problems ordering here once when I set the cookies to "never" accept cookies from third party sites. That was using Firefox. If you're using other browser types like Safari or Google's or IE, use similar settings to loosen it up to accept the widest variety of cookies when you're making the order. 2. Try it in other browsers than the one you're using, again with cookies set to accept a wider variety of cookies that may be issued by the site. Skull Trip: I shook my head at that guy's listing on ebay too. Maybe he'll read this page and change his description from Good condition to Pretty Fine, Nice Enough, or Hey Now. Then he could double the price and promise overnight delivery too, no?

Anyone know of places to watch World Cup near Buffalo NY or specifically Darien Lake on Tuesday ? Games start early AM. I'm going to Dead and Co that night, but would prefer to watch the World Cup during morning and afternoon. I noticed Duff's wings is only 30 min away from Darien Lake venue , any Buffalo people have a favorite place for wings or sports bar to watch games ? Also looking for place to watch suggestions in Cuyahoga Falls on Wednesday Some good games today Mexico x Germany and Brasil x Switzerland Alain your exceptions - 10.28.90 will get released one of these days, listening to that show gives off a magnificent vibe , the atmosphere on that night must have been incredible, both sets are top !! December 31, 1972 - has some portions released Winterland Bonus Disc, it certainly is one of the best New Years Performances. For this box set show #3 and #5 I am most excited for Artwork reminds me of a Dead tee from 1982 , I believe it also says Pacific Northwest Summer 1982 in a cryptic font. Using similar colors on the graphics, white tee with blue and red. Native American influence with smaller depictions of totem poles, the graphic is circular with many faces, artist is David Lundquist. One of first Dead tees I ever got and still have.

Happy Fathers Day to those blessed with youngins. G PS, they were just playin the foolish heart from alpine 89 on sirius. It is quite good. I kept wondering why does that seem like deja vu. Oh yeah, I was there. Dang we have all been here before slips into it all rolls into one! Much more coffee.

Soccer and Hi-Q audio are the two things that are "imminent", and always will be in my opinion, though I am rooting for Hi_q audio. As someone here said, Soccer has ben on the verge of going big since I (and half my school) played it in Middle School. It makes SO much sense (every kid plays soccer > organized soccer in college, etc) yet it has too much going against it (i.e.: 0-0 ties.... ) Similarly, I've been hearing about hi-Q audio forever. SACD's launched 19 years ago, but that fizzled hard. Curiously I just looked at Wiki and the first few sentences on the topic mention that studies have shown subjects could not hear any difference between the 2 formats. Have to admit I have done the CD/SACD sound test and I couldn't tell. HOWEVER I definitely think the massive compression that is standard for XM radio and iPhones etc etc IS noticeable. In my opinion the issue is not the 44.1k sample rate that is the CD standard, but the compression consumers impose after it's been released. I would love to know that actual sample rate Bobby used in that sound test. My hunch is they compressed the hell out of it to 128mbps to get that stark a difference. (Which one can argue is reasonable since many compress music to the small size on their iPhones in order to fit more in.) But comparing 128mbps to the TRG studio format (96k) is kind of an unfair comparison.

I have not heard any of the HD downloads, I normally buy the CDs and rip them @24bit I did pre-order the "Anthem" set as HD downloads as I don't care about the packaging on that and wanted to hear if the HD files were better. Since I wont have the comparable CD to test against, its not exactly a real test. From reading the article posted near the beginning of the page, there are a lot of good points, one of which is the volume of the A/B comparison a well as the mastering difference between sources. I.e., the HD version might be mastered differently, which is why it sounds differently. So, are the GD HD files fresh from Jeffery Norman, and then sent to Rhino to be beaten into submission as CD's for release ? Or are the HD files the CD release bumped up to 192/24 ? I don't think the magic is in the 192/24, but it the source. 192/24 should be able to hold the source in its fullest dynamic range. Assuming frequency range is the same. If the source is the CD file - compressed down from the 192/24 mixing board output, putting a size 6 foot in a size 12 shoe is not going to gain you anything. I also use an "audiophile" type music player with FLAC (Lossless) files. The type of DAC really does make a difference no matter what you play back. Even on straight 44.1/16 cd rips they sound better than my iPhone.

CDs are 16 bit. Putting a 16 bit CD on your hard drive at 24 bit doesn’t gain anything, it just uses up more space. You’re right about needing a good DAC. I have my CDs in ALAC on an iBasso DX80 which has dual DACs, then I send it by fiber optic to my receiver and it sounds awesome.

I found that hidden Scarlet/Fire as soon as I got that DP because I was using a carousel CD changer and it wasn’t changing after CD2 ended.Kind of annoyed me because it broke up the flow of the show. So I loaded CD2 on the computer, removed the S/F, and burned it to CD-R. Now the flow has been restored.

Just noticed you here for the first "time". Trust you've crossed paths with JimInMD by now. Maybe had a chance for a little off-bypass time-travel on the Chesterfield sofa or Jim's infamous time-transcending riding lawn mower? Ever pick up hitchhikers? I'd love a lift to some of those late 60s/early 70s venues whenever. . . Onward! (and welcome!)

On disc 2 of Dick's Picks 29, 5/19/99 The Fabulous Fox in Atlanta Georgia, after Estimated Prophet, there is filler from October 11, 1977 Lloyd Noble Center U of Oklahoma, in Norman OK. Not Fade Away> Wharf Rat> Around and Around, from set 2. I love this version of Wharf Rat. And of disc 5, 5/21/77, after Brown-Eyed Women there is Dancin' in the Street & Dire Wolf from 10/11/77. Other elements of 10/11/77 are contained on Road Trips 2.2: Let It Grow, Help On The Way> Slipknot!> Franklin's Tower and Sunrise in on the bonus disc.

current GD CDs are all in 24 bit HD CD if you decode them using the correct decoder. If you don't have a decoder, they are in 16 bit. I rip them to FLAC at 24 bit using the correct codec. The problem with time travel is you may want to end up at the carousel ballroom in '66, but end up in the age of the dinosaurs (Eagles hell freezes over tour 1994) and have to spend the next 25 years to get back to where you were.

Perhaps.. but some fault lies on the folks that forked over the dough. Inevitably.. prices float to the amount people are willing to pay. Stones tickets got ridiculous early too. Anyway.. another topic that will never achieve resolution through us fickle posters. I sort of blame us deadheads a bit too.. while we are off having the times of our lives seeing shows for (in my show seeing days) $6 to $25 a ticket the moron majority took notice and decided they wanted to have as much fun as us.. and the masses stampeded to the stadiums and the $100 per ticket revolution occurred. And now people are willing to pay $300 and up for tickets. It might just have been the rest of the world taking notice of us fun hogs. but in way we are saying the same thing.

Fluent in 43 languages.. but not French. Russian, Arabic, Farsi.. are ok. I could go on. I'm actually quite excited.. I am in between jobs and Bolo took me on as an intern. I start tomorrow. My only instructions were to have a cellphone with different sim chips, one for each carrier, a valid passport, which I was told would not be used but to keep it 'taped to my person' just in case, and to show up at Dulles Airport at 4:30 tomorrow am. I'm pretty stoked. I packed three changes of clothes, my old 1980 sony Walkman and my copy of Cornell and a pack of rainbow skittles. Roadtrip!

Yes, I was just getting that message right now when logging in. Anyway, HEY THERE FOLKS! Haven’t checked in for a long time. Maybe since Dave’s subscription? Get Shown The Light box? Just wanted to pop in and express my enthusiasm for this new set. I could probably conceive other material for a box that would get me even more hyped, but this stuff is up there. I’ve never heard any of these shows yet. Also, doubly cool for someone like me who’s been living in the Pacific Northwest for 13 years now. Can’t wait until September!

Anyone happen to remember back in late 2015 when I was pleading for the Portland ‘74 show as Dave’s Picks 16 or maybe it was 17? I even described what the cover art could look like? Well I remember if you don’t. Glad it’s finally happening, even if my cool art idea won’t be included.

I noticed since the PNW wrapper went live that my chrome browser window remains in a constant washing machine tumble showing that "not secure" message. I attributed this to either Bolo and Jim's escape from Putin or the bots seizing on the Senator's "Make America Grateful Again" re-election plank. Could be attributed to bad php code... But it seems to be most prevalent on this thread...

Told my girlfriend she drew her eyebrows too high. She seemed surprised. Then she accused me of being immature, so I told her to get out of my fort! Women call me ugly until they find out how much money I make; then they call me ugly and poor. I went to a really emotional wedding the other day. Even the cake was in tiers. And parallel lines have so much in common; it’s a shame they’ll never meet. A blind man walks into a bar. And a table. And a chair. A Freudian Slip is when you say one thing and mean your mother. I took the shell off my racing snail, thinking it would make him run faster. If anything, it made him more sluggish. I have the heart of a lion – and a lifetime band from the zoo. This first rule of Alzheimer’s Club is – don’t talk about Chess Club. Someone stole my Microsoft Office; and they’re gonna pay – you have my Word! And to the handicapped guy who stole my bag – you can hide but you can’t run. And I just heard that someone in London gets stabbed every 52 seconds – the poor bastard. God said to John, “Come forth and you shall be granted eternal life,” but John came fifth and won a toaster.

....What happens when a Norwegian robot scans a bird? It Scandanavian.I went on a date with a blonde woman last night. "Do you have any kids?" she asked. "Yes", I replied. "I have one child that's just under two." She said, "I may be blonde, but I know how many one is." My neighbors listen to awesome music, whether they like it or not. (That ones actually true). seriously though. I want to go to Dead & Co at Dodger stadium on juth 7th, but all my usual concert buddies can't. Anyone interested in a meet up?

A little new as we have 2 years here and a constant locations. Two legit big dogs in 6/22/73 and 5/19/74. 5/21/73 is also excellent. And of course the more unfamiliar shows could be as well. A tad too repetitive on song selection. Some tunes on all 6 and 10+ on 5/6 shows. Still, no real complaints here.

I remember the bad old days when we used to complain about the poor customer service from dead.net and how difficult it was to order merchandise. How relieved we were when the pros at Warner Brothers took over and how much smoother everything was. Just saying, “Everything is not just exactly perfect”.

Real Gone Music is reissuing the Road Trip series, the catch is that they started from the back, and are moving to the front (take a step back).If you can be patient you will eventually be able to buy a new reissue of what you are looking for. https://shop.realgonemusic.com/search?q=Road+trips Speaking of which, happy anniversary 6-18-74

Being that I am not too knowledgeable in HDCD I looked it up and the internet claims that HDCD is 20-bit.But you say the GD HDCD releases are 24-bit? What software do you use to extract the HDCD version to your HD? I initially used iTunes to extract the files, and specified 16/44.1, not sure if there was another option. I now use Toast15 to make a disc image. Will need to check if Toast will recognize HDCD.
