Dick's Picks Volume 34 is the 34th installment of the Dick's Pick's series of Grateful Dead concert recordings. It is a three CD set that contains the complete show recorded on November 5, 1977, at the Community War Memorial in Rochester, New York. It also includes additional material recorded on November 2, 1977, at the Seneca College Field House in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Booklet
The release includes a booklet made of four sheets of paper stapled together in the middle yielding a 16-page enclosure. The front duplicates the cover of the CD and the back features a photograph of the venue.
The booklet features many photographs, both in color and black-and-white, of the band playing on stage and of the crowd in attendance at the show. The last two pages feature a dark black-and-white photograph of Jerry Garcia on stage and list the contents of and credits for the release.[3]
Caveat emptor
Each volume of Dick's Picks has its own "caveat emptor" label, advising the listener of the sound quality of the recording. The one for volume 34 reads:
"Dick's Picks Volume 34 was mastered directly from the original two-track analog reel-to-reel tapes running at 7.5 IPS. Some minor sonic anomalies remain, due to the unavoidable effects of the ravages of time and the fragile nature of 1/4" analog tape. Additionally, due to a missing reel from November 5, 1977, we have used the PA cassette master tapes from that show to fix the problem."
