• 000NESBURY GARRY TRUDEAU • QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Ido not at all resent criti­ cism, even when, for the sake of emphasis, it for a time parts company with reality."

-Sir Winston Churchill page 10 ACCE:NT MlASJC Thursday, February 1, 1996 • ALBUM REVIEW THE RETURN OF THE liVE DEAD due to the passing of guitarist , this saying has hardly ever been more true as the Dead rock the house on this smoking concert collection. Recorded on May 22, 1977 in Pembroke Pines, Florida, Dick's Picks captures the sonic mastery of the band at one of its many creative peaks. The spring of that year saw the Dead blitzkrieg through the east coast with a fresh batch of songs and new energy which was manifested in precise playing, long-but-not-spacey jams, and increased cohesion among bandmates. For the first time ever, a May '77 show is available on CD with nearly flawless sound. "Dick" refers to Dick Latvala, the official archivist of live recordings. His job is to listen to those old concert tapes and pick those which avid fans would like to hear on disc. This brings us to the actual quality of the music on the discs at hand. To his cred­ it, Dick chooses an excellent performance to finish up 1995 (a staggeringly lame year for Dead fans) and start 1996 anew. A playful "Funiculi Funicula" tuning shows the band to be in good spirits. Then, the ride begins with an exquisite "," a tune from which the above quote was taken. From there, we see the first hints of the fun to come when Jerry Garcia pulls out an enormous "," which has crescendos so intense that it's impossible to believe that this is the second song of the show. Weir then gets back to the funk (this is the year when disco reigned) with his signature "Lazy Lightning/Supplication" pairing. More disco follows with an outrageous 14-minute "Dancin' in the Streets," which features tasty Garcia licks throughout. To finish up disc one, Dick cuts out some useless songs and inserts the jazz-infested triumvirate of "Help on the Way/Slipknot!/Franklin's Tower," which sets the tone for disc two and all its glory. The second part of this set starts with a barnburning "Samson and Delilah," and later Weir classic tale of psychotic religious obsession, "Estimated Prophet." This unusually timed wah-wah-fest snakes its way around a central theme anchored by bassist for nine minutes until Garcia's licks spiral. upwards into the delightfully bouncy "Eyes of the World." This uptempo swinger shows Garcia at his best; in harmony with the remaining sextet of players, his voice majestic and wry, and with a willingness to just let go and allow the song to play the singer. After piling delicious le.ads one upon another, "Eyes" delicately dissolves into a truly breathtaking moment in the Dead's history-the Garcia solo. For almost two minutes, Jerry guides his faithful cohorts with minimal accompaniment. Fluid tones flow from his guitar and pure bliss breaks out in the audience. This haunting pas­ sage drops elegantly into "Wharf Rat," a ballad which shows the tender side of the G ratefu I Dead Dead. The fireworks get even better as the second half of the "" suite pops up, adding an unusual cap to an already intriguing set.

This deeply evocative anti-war ballad stirs up powerful asso­ Grateful Dead Records ciations, augmented by Garcia's melancholic crooning and Keith Godchaux's sensi­ tive piano fills.
