Grateful
Dead: Dave's Picks Vol. 16,
Springfield, MA 3/28/73
We're
wrapping up the 2015 Dave's Picks series with a real whopper! That's right,
Dave's Picks Volume 16: Springfield Civic Center, Springfield, MA 3/28/73
- the show that nearly didn't happen - is packed with 30 songs and lengthy
ones to boot. As liner note scribe Dennis McNally claims this one's got
a "classic 1973 'problem': almost too much good material... they simply
did not know how to stop." From the rare "Cumberland Blues" opener barreling
into a first set packed with new-at-the-time tunes to an unparalleled
second set sequence of "Weather Report Suite">a massively beautiful atonal
31-minute "Dark Star">"Eyes of the World">"Playing In the Band" - an atypical
show closer with its extreme energy - we are certain you will agree that
this one's bountiful.
Recorded
by Kidd Candelario and mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman, Dave's
Picks Vol. 16 ships out November 1st. Like all our 2015 Dave's Picks releases,
it's also limited to 16,500 individually numbered copies - and these have
been known to sell out in matter of days - so you'll want to grab a copy
while you can!
