Dave’s Picks Volume 40 has made some noise on the Billboard Chart!
1) Grateful Dead scores its 50th top 40-charting album on the Billboard 200. The band continues to have the most top 40 albums among groups since the chart began regularly publishing on a weekly basis in March of 1956. The only acts with more top 40 albums than Grateful Dead are Frank Sinatra (58), Elvis Presley (57), Barbra Streisand (54) and Bob Dylan (51).
2) Also marks Grateful Dead’s highest charting album since 1987 on the Billboard 200!
3) Finally, it’s the largest sales week for Grateful Dead in over 25 years

We check in with the Owsley Stanley Foundation!
The band’s latest box set “Listen To The River: St. Louis ’71 ’72 ’73” includes 7 previously unreleased Grateful Dead shows. Three of those shows were recorded by Owsley Stanley a/k/a Bear.
The Owsley Foundation restores recordings – just like the St. Louis tapes – with the hopes of officially releasing the performances. Their latest release is Johnny Cash at The Carousel Ballroom. The venue was operated by members of the Grateful Dead and the soundman was Bear. Directors from the Foundation tell us about these recordings and how the Man In Black influenced the Grateful Dead.
