The album's liner notes include an essay by Bill Walton, who attended the 1971 show and was on the UCLA men's basketball team at the time. [1]

The New Riders of the Purple Sage were the opening act at both the Pauley Pavilion and the Kiel Opera House concerts. [4]

Critical reception

On AllMusic, Timothy Monger said, "Asking basketball legend and notable Deadhead Bill Walton to write the liner notes for Dave's Picks, Vol. 48 was a nice touch. The concert featured here took place in November 1971 at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion, where Walton was setting the court on fire as a budding college basketball star. He was also in attendance at this show, listening to his favorite band set that same court on fire with a mix of searing psychedelic journeys ("The Other One"), glowing roots rock ("Casey Jones", "Sugar Magnolia"), and Skull & Roses-era classics ("Me and My Uncle", "Bertha")." [6]
