The album is the first in the Dave's Picks series of Grateful Dead archival releases, the successor to the Road Trips series.[6] It is a limited edition of 12,000 individually numbered copies.[5]
The cover art, by Scott McDougall, depicts the hands of two skeletons in outer space, with clashing drumsticks that resemble lightsabers. This is a nod to the film Star Wars, which was released the same date that the concert was recorded.[7]
Dave's Picks Volume 1 was released as a five-disc vinyl LP on May 1, 2022.
