Dick's Picks Vol. 19 Fairgrounds Arena Oklahoma City Grateful Dead 6 Vinyl LP.
First time on vinyl! First show of historic 1973 tour! It was the first concert of the tour, and in fact at the time it was the first full 1973 concert to be released. More importantly, with the release of Wake of the Flood just a few days prior, it finds the band invigorated with a wealth of fresh material to explore, highlighted by stellar (no pun intended) renditions of “Stella Blue” and “Eyes of the World.” And the two sidelong numbers on the set, “Playing in the Band” and “Dark Star” (which leads into a dazzling “Mind Left Body Jam” and a stirring “Morning Dew”), achieve sheer improvisational bliss.
180-gram black vinyl pressing includes an insert sporting the graphics from the original release, housed inside a two-piece hardshell box that is hand-numbered and limited to 4500 6-LP sets.
