Dave’s Picks Vol. 13, a three-CD live album feature the complete show from the Grateful Dead’s February 24, 1974 appearance at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom.
On the fertile grounds of their home turf and on the edge of what would become the Wall of Sound era, the Dead embarked upon a tremendous three-night run at Winterland. On this particular night, the last in the run, they warmed up the crowd with stellar new tracks U.S. Blues (previously known as Wave That Flag), Ship of Fools, and It Must Have Been the Roses. And while these debuts, nestled among fan favorites like Playing in the Band and Brown-Eyed Women, were quite tantalizing, the 2nd set really brought it all home.
Witness the magic on an incredibly jazz, introspective Dark Star, perhaps one of the finest version of “Morning Dew” during this time, and a beautifully arranged cover of It’s All Over Now Baby Blue.
