Dick's Picks Volume 19 is the 19th live album in the Dick's Picks series of releases by the Grateful Dead. The album is on three CDs, and contains the complete concert recorded on October 19, 1973 at the Fairgrounds Arena in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. [4]

Contents

Enclosure

The release includes two sheets of paper stapled together in the middle, yielding an eight-page enclosure. The front duplicates the cover of the CD and the back shows the outline of a white circular stealie superimposed on a color photograph of the prairie with a fence stretching out into the distance and a tornado forming in the sky above it.

The first two pages inside the enclosure feature a collage of memorabilia from the tour and the band's recent studio album Wake of the Flood. The middle two pages feature a photomontage of eight photos, three in color and five in black-and-white, of the band members performing on stage. The penultimate page contains a single black-and-white photo of the band on stage backed by a color photo showing lightning bolts, and the last page lists the contents of and credits for the release. [5]

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 19 reads:

"Despite a rather skeevy ouverture, the sound quality of this release quickly settles into a nice, warm groove. Listen closely, however, for you may just find that your mind will be blown by the music contained herein."
