Contents

A bonus disc was included with shipments of the album to 2015 Dave's Picks subscribers, containing performances culled from other nights of the seven-concert run. Additional material from these shows had been released, in 2003, as Dick's Picks Volume 30 , and selections from March 22 and 23, 1972 constituted the bonus disc of Rockin' the Rhein . [5]

Dave's Picks Volume 14 was listed at #31 on the Billboard 200 for the week of May 16, 2015. [6]

Critical reception

On All About Jazz , Doug Collette wrote, "This latest entry in the ongoing archive series features is an unusual selection of tunes, at least insofar as this concert's position in the iconic band's timeline. The now-famous songs that debuted in England and elsewhere the next month are conspicuously absent here ('Jack Straw' is an exception), in place of which appear no less notable numbers such as 'Truckin'  ', 'Wharf Rat' and 'Sugar Magnolia' plus a clutch of showpieces for keyboardist/vocalist Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan." [7]
