Show Notes

Dick's Picks 36
9/21/72 The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA

  • Filler tracks from 9/3/72 Folsom Field, Boulder, CO


This particular Pick has been an especially long time coming: when Dick's Picks was created in 1993, series founder and guiding spirit Dick Latvala had the 9/21/72 show from the Spectrum in Philadelphia, PA very high on his short list of candidates for the first release. Dick departed from this world some six years ago, but the gifts he left to this community just keep on coming.

"I love it that my actual birthday has a show this great."

"It could possibly be one of the Deads best shows ever played. High energy. Plus, it's Philly and the Spectrum. All the stars and signs added up for this one."
