Bear's Sonic Journals: The (Not) Dead - Sing Out! Berkeley Community Theater 4/25/1981 (Limited Edition Eyeball Vinyl)
On April 25, 1981, the Grateful Dead — billed here as "The (Not) Dead" — took the stage at Berkeley Community Theater for an intimate acoustic set that remains one of the most beloved documents of the band's quieter side. Captured by the legendary Owsley "Bear" Stanley and released as part of his ongoing Bear's Sonic Journals archival series, Sing Out! showcases Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, Billy Kreutzmann, and John Kahn running through a warm set of folk, bluegrass, and country classics.
This limited edition pressing arrives on stunning red-and-white swirl "eyeball" vinyl and includes a 4-page booklet featuring original CD release liner notes from Jesse Jarnow and Bear's children, Starfinder and Redbird.
