GRATEFUL DEAD - CD DICK'S PICKS V.20

Popis - DICK'S PICKS V.20:
'Dick's Picks Volume 20' documents the majority of the Grateful Dead concerts on September 25, 1976 at the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland and September 28, 1976 at the Onondaga County War Memorial in Syracuse, New York. At a mere two songs short of two complete shows-and those two songs, 'Bertha' and 'It's All Over Now,' were played at both shows, so they appear on the set at least once. Dicks Picks Vol. 20 is one of the more jam-packed (or is that packed with jams?) entries in the series. But this volume has a lot more going for it than just five hours-plus of music. 1976 marked the return of the band to the road after a 20-month hiatus with Mickey Hart back in tow for the first time in five years, and it is a newly rejuvenated outfit we hear playing a mix of the new ('Lazy Lightnin',' 'Supplication') and old ('St. Stephen' and the rare 'Cosmic Charlie,' which appears on the Landover shows set list for the last time ever). Perhaps the most sublime moment is the transition from 'Comes A Time' to 'Eyes Of The World' (and then to the out-of-nowhere 'Orange Tango Jam') during the second set of the Syracuse show, but both shows are full of sparkling performances propelled by the newly reunited Rhythm Devils. Another keeper from the vaults.
