Grateful Dead – The Best of the Grateful Dead Live: 1969-1977 - Vol 1 (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
The years 1969 through 1977 represent the full arc of the Dead's most exploratory era, from the raw psychedelic abandon of their early Haight-Ashbury years through the melodic peak of the Terrapin Station period. These were the nights when Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann, Mickey Hart, and Keith and Donna Godchaux were pushing the boundaries of what a rock band could do in real time, making every show a one-of-a-kind document.
Double vinyl LP pressing. The Best of The Grateful Dead Live: 1969-1977 - Vol 1. Rock's longest, strangest trip, the Grateful Dead, were the psychedelic era's most beloved musical ambassadors as well as its most enduring survivors.
They spread their message of peace, love, and mind expansion across the globe over three decades. The group had popular music's most fervent and celebrated fan following - the Dead Heads, whose numbers and devotion were legendary in their own right. Grateful Dead was the ultimate cult band, creating a self-styled universe all their own.
The Dead became superstars solely on their own terms as tie-dyed pied pipers whose epic, free-form live shows were rites of passage for an extended family of listeners who knew no cultural boundaries.
