August 4th and 5th. Most of the booklet is a long essay from The Aquarian by Jay Saporita entitled "We used to play for silver, now we play for life", a verse from the band's song "Jack Straw". Spanning the better part of 16 pages, the essay details the several days spent setting up and performing the shows, and includes highlights from moments backstage. The last page of the essay features a large color photograph of the Wall of sound, and the last two pages list the contents of and credits for the release. 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 label for volume 31 reads: "Dicks Picks Vol. 31 was mastered from the original 2 track analog source tapes, running at 7.5 IPS, recorded during the last American tour using the famed Wall Of Sound. Some sonic anomalies remain, particularly some over-exuberant piano-related sounds, but we have done as much as possible to bring the Wall Of Sound into your living room. Enjoy."
