b'In this week\\u2019s episode we explore Dick\\u2019s Picks Vol. 18, a midwestern compilation from February 3, 1978 at the Dane County Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin, February 4, 1978 at the Milwaukee Auditorium in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and February 5, 1978, at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Just six weeks on from the magical year of 1977, we find The Dead fusing their disco-dead sound with expert & lengthy jams, giving the run a mixed feeling of 1973 meeting 1977. Pieced together like a standard Set I for the era with a double-pack of Set II jam vehicles, this is a joyous compilation that gives one a true sense of what The Grateful Dead were up to in the Winter of 1978.\\n\\nDisc One opens with the back-to-back combo of \\u201cBertha\\u201d and \\u201cGood Lovin\\u2019\\u201d before we dive into a seasonally appropriate \\u201cCold Rain & Snow.\\u201d Elsewhere, \\u201cDeal\\u201d shines in the lively rock of late-70\\u2019s Dead. Disc Two is a masterpiece as the late-70\\u2019s combo of \\u201cEstimated Prophet> Eyes Of The World\\u201d before \\u201cPlayin\\u2019 In The Band\\u201d jams for nearly 25min in a fusion of the late-70\\u2019s groove & early-70\\u2019s psychedilia. From there we hear the first \\u201cThe Wheel\\u201d of the Dick\\u2019s Picks series before returning to \\u201cPlayin\\u2019.\\u201d Disc Three provides a bonus Set II to the overall show, with a scorching \\u201cScarlet -> Fire\\u201d that concludes with a jam heavy \\u201cTruckin\\u2019 -> Drums -> Other One> Wharf Rat.\\u201d All the flavors of Winter/Spring 1978 are represented here in a compilation that matches Dick\\u2019s Picks 4, 12 and 14 for its mastery of encapsulating an era.\\n\\n36 from the Vault is production of Osiris Media.
