This is the only Dick's Picks volume to feature the final Dead line-up, with Vince Welnick assuming all keyboard duties after the departure of Bruce Hornsby. Those are two of the four bonus songs taken from the next night's show at the same venue; the rest of this 3-CD set presents the complete 12/16/92 Oakland show, which offers among its treasures a rare (albeit abbreviated), '90s reading of "Dark Star," a great, Pigpen-tribute rendition of "Good Lovin'," Bob Weir's fine reading of Willie Dixon's "The Same Thing," and a marvelously exploratory "Playing In The Band/Drums/Space" segment.
