Dead.net is kicking off Dave's Picks 2014 with a visit to the Wall Of Sound era. Dave's Picks Volume 9 features the complete show from May 14, 1974, at Adams Field House at the University of Montana in Missoula, the Grateful Dead's only appearance in the state of oro y plata. This monstrously hot show is the third official show of the Wall Of Sound, which had debuted in March 1974. Highlights run deep including the second performance of "Scarlet Begonias," a 22+ minute "Playing In The Band" that leans heavily on the band's jazz chops, and a second set jam of "Weather Report Suite>Dark Star" that contains some of the deepest jamming of 1974, and that's saying a heck of a lot! It also features one of only a handful of versions of "Dark Star" played in 1974, a song heading toward a long hiatus, and this one digs deep into some of the wildest spaces you'll ever hear. Rockers, ballads, and jams, 5/14/74 covers all the bases, with plenty of nuances to revel in, each and every listen. Pre-order it here while you can!
