Dave's Picks Volume 38 is a three-CD live album by the rock band the Grateful Dead. It contains the complete concert recorded on September 8, 1973 at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. It also contains two bonus tracks recorded on the previous night at the same venue. Some copies of the album include a bonus disc with eight more songs from the September 7 concert. It was released on April 30, 2021 in a limited edition of 25,000 copies.[1][2][3]
Dave's Picks Volume 38 was the first live Dead album to include the song "Let Me Sing Your Blues Away", sung by keyboardist Keith Godchaux. The "Eyes of the World" on the bonus disc was previously released, in slightly edited form, as a bonus track on the 2004 reissue of Wake of the Flood.
The September 7 and 8, 1973 Nassau Coliseum concerts were the first Grateful Dead shows at which Jerry Garcia played his custom Doug Irwin guitar "Wolf".[4]
Critical reception
On AllMusic Timothy Monger wrote, "Captured at Uniondale, New York's Nassau Coliseum, this set features a number of songs from the band's soon-to-be-released Wake of the Flood LP including a dreamy "Stella Blue", a 15-minute "Eyes of the World", and the live debut of "Weather Report Suite"."[5]
