''Dick's Picks Volume 4'' is the fourth live album in the Dick's Picks series of releases by the Grateful Dead. It was recorded on February 13 and February 14, 1970 at the Fillmore East in New York City, and released in February 1996. It was the first of the Dick's Picks CDs to have three discs. It was also the first Dead album to include the song "Mason's Children".〔("Mason's Children" on DeadDisc.com )〕 ''Dick's Picks Volume 4'' was the second album of live material from the 2/13/70 and 2/14/70 concerts. The first was ''History of the Grateful Dead, Volume One (Bear's Choice)'', which was released in 1973. The Grateful Dead played three sets of music at each of these concerts — a relatively short electric set, an acoustic set, and another, longer electric set, followed by an encore. ''Dick's Picks Volume 4'' contains the complete third sets of both shows, plus two additional songs. ==The Fillmore East shows== On February 11, 13, and 14, 1970, the Grateful Dead — along with the Allman Brothers Band and Love — performed at Bill Graham's Fillmore East auditorium in New York City. The February 13 and February 14 Dead shows were widely regarded as among the band's best concerts, even before the release of ''Dick's Picks Volume 4''. In addition to the evidence offered by ''Bear's Choice'', high quality soundboard bootlegs of the concerts had been in circulation for quite some time. In a 1993 poll of Grateful Dead tape traders, based on the concert recordings then in circulation, the 2/13/70 show was ranked #2 on the list of all-time favorite Dead tapes, and 2/14/70 was #17. (The May 8, 1977 concert at Cornell University's Barton Hall received the top ranking.) The same poll rated the 2/13/70 versions of "Dark Star", "The Other One", and "Turn On Your Love Light" as the best ever. (The "Dark Star" played on August 27, 1972, in Veneta, Oregon, was ranked #2. The February 27, 1969 version from the Fillmore West, included in Live/Dead, was #9.)〔Scott, John W; Dolgushkin, Mike; Nixon, Stu.
