{"product_id":"grateful-dead-dicks-picks-03-vinyl-lp","title":"GRATEFUL DEAD - DICKS PICKS 03 Vinyl LP","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eGrateful Dead archivist Dick Latvala considered this show to be the finest outing on the entire Spring 1977 tour, and, as any Dead Head knows, \u003cu\u003ethat\u003c\/u\u003e is high praise indeed! At the time this was released on CD, the Dead weren’t sure a market existed (ha!) for three and four-CD packages, so this four-LP set leaves off eight songs from the show, but consider what songs \u003cu\u003eare\u003c\/u\u003e here: a phenomenal “Help on the Way”\/”Slipknot!”\/”Franklin’s Tower” comes after one of the definitive renditions of “Sugaree” and a terrific “The Music Never Stopped,” with the late, great Phil Lesh’s slithering bass leading the way in recording engineer’s Betty Cantor-Jackson’s mix. But sides E, F \u0026amp; G offer one of those sublime (and, in this case, never to be repeated) sequences of songs that only the Dead could pull off in concert; after the rarely-performed “Sunrise,” a medley of “Estimated Prophet”\/”Eyes of the World”\/”Wharf Rat”\/”Terrapin Station” (a truncated version two months before its official release)\/”Morning Dew” brings the show home, as Jerry Garcia’s soloing on “Morning Dew” reaches heights seldom attained even by him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis was a knockout release on its first very limited vinyl run (check out those resale prices), and we’ve improved on it with a fresh mastering job by Jeffrey Norman (in his own words, “the sound is better than the original heard on the Brookvale release”), and lacquer cutting by Clint Holley and Dave Polster at Well Made Music. Pressed on 180-gram black vinyl at the plant we’ve been using to great acclaim for all of our Grateful Dead releases, Gotta Groove Records, and limited to 2000 hand-numbered copies!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLP ONE\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFuniculi Funicula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe Music Never Stopped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSugaree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE B\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLazy Lightning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSupplication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDancin’ in the Streets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLP TWO\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHelp On The Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSlipknot!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFranklin’s Tower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLP THREE\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE E\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSamson and Delilah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSunrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEstimated Prophet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE F\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEyes of the World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWharf Rat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLP FOUR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSIDE G\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col type=\"1\" start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTerrapin Station\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e(Walk Me Out In The)  Morning Dew\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003eReal Gone Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AMS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49428198850845,"sku":"Dicks_picks_volume_17","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2236\/3463\/files\/dicks_picks_03-460665.webp?v=1733269532","url":"https:\/\/experiencevinyl.com\/products\/grateful-dead-dicks-picks-03-vinyl-lp","provider":"Experience Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
