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 34 reads: "Dick's Picks Volume 34 was mastered directly from the original two-track analog reel-to-reel tapes running at 7.5 IPS. Some minor sonic anomalies remain, due to the unavoidable effects of the ravages of time and the fragile nature of 1/4" analog tape. Additionally, due to a missing reel from November 5, 1977, we have used the PA cassette master tapes from that show to fix the problem." ==Track listing==
