About this product
Taken from one of the Dead's annual year-end runs of Bay Area concerts, Dick's Picks Vol. 5 marked five straight volumes of '70s shows selected by archivist Dick Latvala to start the series, and as it was from one of the very last days of the decade, it was the perfect way for Dick to complete his own mini InchtourInch of the '70s. But Vol. 5 has a lot more going for it than just a convenient spot on the calendar; this is one of the rawest and most energetic Picks, a complete show anchored by a second set that is in essence one big medley that begins with InchUncle John's BandInch and ends with it almost two hours later, with a supercharged InchThe Other OneInch and the first appearance of InchBrokedown PalaceInch in two years among many high points in between. Set one is no slouch, either, with a great, Garcia-led rendition of InchAlabama GetawayInch four months before it appeared on record and a passionate vocal by Bob Weir on InchLooks Like RainInch leading to a spirited, set-closing InchThe Promised Land.Inch And throughout it all you'll hear Brent Mydland serving notice in one of his early shows with the band that he is fully up to the task of replacing Keith Godchaux. For this LP reissue, we've given Dick's Picks Vol. 5 the usual Real Gone spit 'n' Polish, starting with a fresh mastering job by Jeffrey Norman. Here is Mr. Norman's report thanks to some technical advances, he was able to even out the bass and remove hundreds of clicks from Jerry Garcia's guitar (thought to be caused by the metal pick that he was using at the time). Add to that lacquer cutting by the Well Made Music team of Clint Holley and Dave Polster and a 180-gram black vinyl pressing at our favorite plant, Gotta Groove Records, and you can rest assured that Dick's Picks Vol. 5 is going to deliver the same superlative sonic experience as our other Real Gone Dick's Picks vinyl reissues.

In another industry defying move, The Grateful Dead followed up their first Gold Record, the 1971 liveshowcase SKULL ROSES, with another live album, one that to most fans and critics surpassed even the excellence of the previous offering. From April 7 to May 26, 1972, the Dead performed and recorded 21 live concerts, plus a set in a television studio, with every night being an exceptional display of the magic that was uniquely the live Grateful Dead. These concerts and this tour, 50 years later, are still considered one of the highest of high points in The Grateful Dead's performing career. In an era whena double album was rare enough, the Dead outdid even their own lofty standards by producing a 3 LP masterpiece that to this day is considered one of the finest live albums ever produced. Remastered from the original analog tapes, the album has never sounded better. Album Tracks 1. Cumberland Blues (Live at the Empire Pool, Wembley, England) [2022 Remaster] 2.

Limited six vinyl LP pressing. Narrowing down The Grateful Dead's touring career and live performances to 60 CDs, 20 venues, and more than 450 songs is hard enough. Narrowing THAT down for 3CD and 6LP sets is a monumental undertaking, but with so much great music to select from, it's one of the most enjoyable compilations we've ever assembled. This nearly four hour collection contains one song (or two, or three...) from every show in the Dead's new road tripping boxed set, ENJOYING THE RIDE, which brings together music from 20 (21...) of the most essential venues in Grateful Dead and Dead Head history. This compilation is crafted with songs spanning the 25 years in the boxed set, 1969-1994. Drawn from such iconic venues as Red Rocks, Frost Amphitheatre, Greek Theatre, Fillmores East and West, Madison Square Garden, Alpine Valley, and many more, THE MUSIC NEVER STOPPED features such classics as InchTruckin',Inch InchEyes Of The World,Inch InchScarlet Begonias,Inch the title track, and plenty of under the radar tracks like InchBig Boy Pete,Inch InchMy Brother Esau,Inch and InchDoin' That Rag.Inch This is a career-defining live collection filled with some of the greatest tracks performed at their greatest venues. - David Lemieux Album Tracks 1. The Music Never Stopped (Live at Philadelphia Spectrum, Philadelphia, Pa, 5/13/1978) 2. Althea (Live at Hartford Civic Center, Hartford, CT, 3/14/1981) 1.
