Grateful Dead : Dave's Picks 16 Volume Sixteen : Springfield Civic Center - Springfield, Massachusetts (MA) - March 28, 1973 (3/28/1973) : 3 CD : 2015 (1973/2015) Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. / Rhino (GDP / Rhino) : Limited Edition Individually-Numbered Set (of # 16,500) : G. - at the Springfield Civic Center! 73 Grateful Dead' Live' in one of their many' Key' Prime-Eras!! My oh my, is all I can say...

At the Springfield Civic Center!! I mean where to even start?? On trying to summarize the importance of this Magical! Live-night of'73 Spring Tour Grateful Dead!!! What's that old saying about " Springfield "?

Isn't it true that like almost every U. Well, I know Oregon has one Whoa? I know the Simpsons has one too!

But - this I can pretty much confirm --' No-Springfield' has been treated just quite-like-this Ever! By the Good Ol' Grateful Dead!!!

I mean to hear this-one was going to be pro-released had me jumping up & down, as this 3/28/73 Show has been a Grate! Friend of Mine - since I was a little kid.

And, in fact - it was a pretty huge' circulation' in my neighborhood as a kid! And all I can say is that I got so-lucky... Simply because this Show went down on the exact same day that one of my childhood buddies was born! Way back in the'80's, or - in any Era for a true Deadhead I suppose... If there was a Show on Your!

-- and, if you had to do whatever it took, then so be it. Thankfully, my buddy tracked this one down through the tapers network aka. In the'80's - and just because of that... I've had low-gen Sweet!

Maxell Cassettes of this-Show since I was a little kid... Get spun in the Naks, with frequency! So there's my right-place-at-the-right-time story - but, such an important one...

And, because of this - there are absolutely No! Surprises on this one for me... Other than, well - you know..... Out of the gate on this release, even far-better then I even remembered... Garcia delivering pointed treble-flurries everywhere!

- just as one might expect... The Wave that Flag makes you feel a bit like Roscoe Maples - sitting in Springfield in the Front-Row! The Loser is one-big Garcia Fest!! Just like it should be, right?

On the Box of Rain! I mean talk about a 1,2,3 in the'73 " Democratic " Band style & fashion!!!

And just the way my-ears like it. The Row Jimmy is sweet! - and the Brown Eyed Women is yet...

It really should be noted -- this is just one of those Shows where Jerry is ON!!! Hence, the popularity of This-Show! Oh yeah, and that's just Disc 1! As the China > Rider!!! Pretty much steals the Show (on that disc). With, the Loose Lucy - Race Is On - and 1/2 Step Mississippi coming in right on it's just-nasty! Let me tell you right-now though... And, in the opinion of some that I've spoken with seriously about this Show...

Of this is just a pre-cursor to This!!! >>> Disc 3 >>> Weather Report Suite (Prelude) > Dark Star!!!

> Eyes > Playin' >... If you're not chasing all of the Dave's Picks, and are just game for the Choicest of Choice cut' Picks' -- Caution : Do Not! Even if'73's not your personal favorite period of Dead...

This 3/28/73 Springfield Show does indeed have the G. Frankly, this is a Show that I could not live with - and glad I haven't had to... As it's been with me now for close to 30-Years Thank You Analog-Tapes!!
