Dick's Picks Volume 3 is a Live - double album of the band Grateful Dead .

history

The album was recorded at a performance on May 22, 1977 at the Hollywood Sportatorium , Pembroke Pines , Florida , and released on November 7, 1995 on its own label Grateful Dead Records .

In addition to songs from the album Blues for Allah , which was released in September 1975, Dick's Picks Volume contains 3 songs from the later album Terrapin Station (July 1977).

In November 2005 a new edition of the album was released, which could be downloaded directly from the Internet.

The name Dick's Pick comes from the official recording archivist of the band Dick Latvala , who started the series and selected the songs for it.

Like the previous albums in the Dick's Pick series, this one also has a caveat emptor warning:

“ This show was originally recorded on analog tape manufactured in the late 1970s. Many tapes from this period have exhibited severe deterioration in recent years. The chemical formulation has failed over time causing the magnetic oxide (which holds the musical information) to separate from the mylar backing. Fortunately we were able to recover the music on these tapes by using a baking process which rebonded the oxide to the tape. While the results of this restoration were quite remarkable, occasional weirdness remains. "

Dick's Picks Volume 3 received 3 out of 5 stars from Rolling Stone . The best ratings of the Dick's Pick series have Vol. 4 and 8 with 5 out of 5 stars each.
