Road Trips Volume 4 Number 4 is a live album by the rock band the Grateful Dead. Subtitled Spectrum 4–6–82, it includes the complete concert recorded on April 6, 1982, at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It also includes seven songs recorded the previous night at the same venue. The 16th of the Road Trips series of archival albums, it was released as a three-disc CD on August 1, 2011.[1]
At the time, this was only the second live Dead album release that had been recorded in 1982; the other being Dick's Picks Volume 32.[2] The year 2016 saw the release of the show from July 31 as part of the 30 Trips Around the Sun boxset. Two further shows (September 21 and 22) were released in 2022 as part of the In and Out of the Garden: Madison Square Garden '81, '82, '83 boxset. As of 2024 these are the only shows released from this year.
Critical reception
In Relix, Glenn BurnSilver wrote, "At the core of this latest Road Trips offering comes a well-known and revered concert: Philadelphia Spectrum, April 6, 1982. From the opening notes of a bustling "Cold Rain and Snow," it's clear that the band is in synch with a dynamic energy and flow that only escalates as the night lengthens and the set list intensifies. It's as if Bob Weir and Jerry Garcia attempt to progressively one up each other with every number.... The one disappointment here (and on other Road Trips ) is filler placement on disc two... Wouldn't it have worked better to keep the main show going through disc two... and put all the filler at the end of disc three?"[3]
