Grateful Dead – Built To Last (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Arriving just two years before Brent Mydland's death in 1990, *Built to Last* now carries a weight its original release couldn't have anticipated. Mydland's three songs here stand as some of his finest recorded moments, and hearing them on vinyl, remastered with modern clarity, makes the loss feel both sharper and more precious. "Standing on the Moon" alone is reason enough to own this.
The Grateful Dead's final studio album, released in October 1989, Built to Last contains some of the strongest songs of the band's later era. Brent Mydland steps up with three standout contributions — "Foolish Heart," "Just a Little Light," and "Blow Away" — demonstrating his vocal range and musical importance to the band. Bob Weir's "Picasso Moon" and "Victim or the Crime" showcase some of his deepest songcraft, while Garcia and Hunter's "Standing on the Moon" closes the album on a note of quiet, otherworldly beauty. Newly remastered by David Glasser, produced for release by David Lemieux.
