I started listening to Dicks Picks 3 yesterday on vinyl - a selection of tracks from 5/22/77. It is an incredible album, in terms of sound quality, choice of material and playing. It occurred to me that I might enjoy this more as it is than if it had been expanded to include the whole show. There have been quite a few Dicks Picks released on vinyl that have made me think this way.
Maybe, for me, having heard these songs so many times in so many different permutations, highlights of shows are becoming more enjoyable that the whole enchilada.
Not a popular view, and not one I would have had a few years ago. - strat-wolf-beanJoined:Yarhundert Halle
There is a reason this show (albeit chopped) was the very first thing released from the vault: The Other One - Comes A Time and on through to the end of the show is all mindbogglingly and jawdroppingly great and intense.
Having the whole show in the trunk, or hopefully yes on vinyl, gives those 2nd/3rd set pieces a better context (of course) - as the first set does have some different pacing/flow & formulation of the 'spokes on the wheel'. Then they come back out absolutely swinging with the Good Lovin'. An All-Time classic show ...
