Very nearly selected as the inaugural Dave’s Picks, 7/31/74 would eventually become the second release in the series in 2012. The Hartford ’74 show was the penultimate outdoor concert for the Grateful Dead’s Wall Of Sound, which was on the tail end of its existence. DAVE’S PICKS VOL. 2 includes every note the Grateful Dead played that night plus Phil and Ned’s Seastones interlude. Featuring a rare “Scarlet Begonias” show-opener, and ending with an encore of Uncle John’s Band, Dave’s Picks Vol. 2 features three full-length sets, a truly epic, monumental show from 1974, a year many Dead Heads consider the band’s greatest. The show includes lengthy workouts on “China>Rider,” “Weather Report Suite,” “Eyes Of The World>China Doll,” and a “Truckin’>Wharf Rat” sequence that includes several thematic jams as the band joins these two classics. The CD sold out immediately in 2012, and we’re thrilled to be re-issuing this terrific show on vinyl. – David Lemieux
