Unassigned to a label and discovering their footing, the group offered some of their earliest renditions of rare originals, “Tastebud,” “You Don’t Have To Ask,” and “Cardboard Cowboy,” among others that would be regarded as standards, “\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gd.lnk.to\/CRAS7366\"\u003eCold Rain and Snow\u003c\/a\u003e,” “Viola Lee Blues,” et al.

Initially recorded by Owsley “Bear” Stanley and produced by Grateful Dead Legacy Manager and Archivist Dave Lemieux, it was mastered by Jeffrey Norman, with speed correction and tape restoration by Plangent Processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rare and early capture of the Grateful Dead’s mid-1960s sound, the July 3 recording was initially debuted in 2015 as a part of the 50th-anniversary boxed set,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e30 Trips Around the Sun\u003c\/em\u003e. The collection of live material is represented by the joint appeal of Jerry Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh, Ron “Pigpen” McKernan, and Bob Weir as a collective focus of musical might. In addition to the aforementioned rarities that would eventually drop from their setlist, the group also delivers a rendition of “Cold, Rain and Snow,” the collection’s lead single, out today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"om-xtq41o8bymqeqekfggpq-holder\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding today’s release, Lemieux says, “One of the Grateful Dead’s longest-tenured songs in their repertoire, Cold Rain \u0026amp; Snow was around from 1965 to 1995, played every year of the Dead’s performing career aside from 1968 and 1975. This was played when it was still in its peppier arrangement.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The Grateful Dead are a profoundly young band on the recording of the Independence Ball,” writes Jesse Jarnow in the album’s liner notes. “There’s a round of applause after every song, but rarely cheers. It’s only been 14 months since the Warlocks made their live debut, and they sound it—sometimes raw, but always thrilling. And, honestly, maybe a little jittery, too… As alien as they sound from the present, the miracle of the Dead tapes from 1966 is that they’re not from alternate timelines at all, but realities that manifested into ours for the briefest of flashes.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNobody’s Fault But Mine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDancing In The Streets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Know You Rider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe Was A Friend Of Mine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNext Time You See Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViola Lee Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Boss Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSitting On Top Of The World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.
