Description: Grateful Dead : Dave's Picks 17 Volume Seventeen : Selland Arena - Fresno, California ( CA ) - July 19, 1974 ( 7/19/1974 ) : 3 CD : 2016 (1974/2016) Grateful Dead Productions, Inc. / Rhino ( GDP / Rhino ) - R2 552287 : Limited Edition ' Individually-Numbered ' Set ( of # 16,500 ) : 1974 ! - Wall Of Sound !! - California ! Live-Dead !!! The Massive ! 1974 Summer Tour " Wall Of Sound !!! " West Coast ! California !! Show - at the Selland Arena !!! ... in Fresno !!!!!G.D. Fans !!! Dave's Picks Volume " 17 " has arrived - and, yes indeed ... yet More ! " Prime-Time " Pre-Hiatus Good Ol' Grateful Dead !! - for Your ! head !!! And this time - not only just through the " Wall Of Sound " - but through the Wall Of Sound ! ... in Fresno, CA ! -- at the way note-worthy '70's G.D. Live Venue - the Selland Arena !!! Ahhhh ... Yes ! As this one my fellow Dead Fans, is a simply Unbelievable-Heater !!! And ... as usual - as we all well know - the Music ! needs to do the talking here, and wow - does it ever on this-release ! So-tough to put into words, for sure - but ... this I will say --- this-Show is truly a candidate for " Top 10 " - or, maybe even " Top 5 " arguably, from the Amazing ! G.D. Touring Year of '74. First off, this Show fell on Keith's Birthday - and he truly plays like it ... thoroughness, attentiveness, at times - even aggressiveness, and with Joy ! all-throughout. And this really seems to stimulate both Jerry & Phil from the early get go. These two battle, weave, cat & mouse, challenge each other ... and flat-out Jam ! - both early & often thoroughly during this Magical ! Summer Tour '74 Show !! The Scarlet is certainly trademarked here by both precision & high-energy attacks that really sets the stage & tone for what Set II delivers - strong ! The Playin' is lengthy, massive, long, hard-jammed, and ... im-pressive ! Bobby Spikes ! Jack Straw in a big way, and from here on ... Whoa ! - is it ever On !!! He's Gone is played into a spirited U.S. Blues, and from here ... sheer Good Ol' Grateful Dead !!! More & more of it ... Yes !! Because let me tell you ... this Weather Report Suite, and it's immediate surroundings are & will-be worth an immediate " re-wind " ( ahh yes ... to so kindly integrate a little ' analog ' talk into this overwhelming digital-era ... Ha ! ). As at this point, Phil pretty much transcends away from being a ' Bass ' player, and steps into the " Lead Guitar # 2 " roll - which can often so Beautifully ! ' patent ' this Pre-Haitus '73 / '74 G.D. Era. His fingers are Hot ! - and Jerry feels it deep down into his soul too - as there are hints of both ! ' Smokestack Lightning ' & ' Spanish Jam ' teases inside the base area of this Jam ... I mean --- " Let It Grow " !!! This is a pure & deep-jammed Ripper ! - that has some of the same Magic ! - but naturally a bit different & unique ... just as the July '74 Cap Centre Smoker that the Band delivered in Maryland just a few days later. So really ... you can hear the progression & immediate relation between these two stand-out versions. Basically, this is a full-on ' Spanish Jam ' in full effect, and I'm not entirely sure why this isn't labeled on the set list of this CD set. Who knows ... but hey, don't we all love surprises - and this is most certainly a Grate ! one. Eyes Of The World is born from this Jam decent, and it's arguably a ' perfect ' version of Eyes ! Jerry is absolutely-perfect on all of the chords, flurries, tempos, timings, and attacks. Jerry ..... Wow !! Dang, I mean even if this might be bordering on a Phil and even Keith Show ... it's still ! a " Jerry Show ! " - as isn't it just amazing how that case can pretty much always ! be made when listening closely - what a Player ! ... both a Student & Master ! of Rock & Roll !! My goodness am I all-about this Show right now, as for my old ( & decades ! old ) analog copy ... is ok on the Soundboard section - but, kind of dicey overall. So yeah ... Thanks ! G.D. for putting this one so amazingly-sounding & in a pretty little box - with a little Skeleton ! & Wall Of Sound !! Artwork too. Grate ! stuff. China Doll Will ! put you in a pleasant trance, and as for Saturday Night ? Well, let's just say it will most-definitely make you want to go out & Enjoy ! yours. Rockin' !! & Awesome !!! - much like this ' Whole ! ' 7/19/74 Fresno Dead Show !! ... " Dave's Picks 17 ". -- Enjoy !!!!!!!TRACK LISTING >>> Grateful Dead : Selland Arena - Fresno, California ( CA ) : July 19, 1974 ( 7/19/1974 ) :Disc 1 :BerthaMexicali BluesDealBeat It On Down The LineRow JimmyMe And Bobby McGeeScarlet BegoniasEl PasoTennessee JedDisc 2 :Playing In The BandSeastonesBrown-Eyed WomenMe And My UncleIt Must Have Been The RosesJack StrawDisc 3 :He's Gone >U.S. BluesWeather Report Suite >Jam >Eyes Of The World >China DollOne More Saturday Night Item Condition : This Very Rare Out of Print ( 2016 GDP / Rhino release ) Dave's Picks 17 ( Selland Arena - Fresno, California ( CA ) - 7/19/1974 ) 3 CD Set ( Limited Edition #'ed Set ( of # 16,500 ) ) is in Like New (Near Mint/Mint!) condition !
