Limited to 25,000 numbered copies, Dave’s Picks Volume 49: Frost Amphitheatre, Stanford U, Palo Alto, CA 4/27/85 & 4/28/85 has been mastered to HDCD specs by Jeffrey Norman at Mockingbird Mastering.
A statement reads, “We’ve loaded up Dave’s Picks 49 with not one, but two complete Grateful Dead shows from the Frost Amphitheatre, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA 4/27/85 and 4/28/85. The first shows from ’85 in the series, these back-to-back hometown performances couldn’t be more different while delivering the same level of passion and precision, five hours of it, in fact.
“In 1985, the band were celebrating “20 Years So Far,” a feat that found them on these particular nights confident with invention in terms of both setlists and playing. There are old songs renewed, rare covers revived, undeniably nuanced Jerry moments, and a few surprises from Brent Mydland too. While it’s impossible to select highlights, we can say with certainty that the overall clarity of these shows is unparalleled, courtesy of Dan Healy’s recordings.”
