Grateful Dead — The Very Best Of (2-LP)
Limited Edition 180-Gram Double Vinyl in Gatefold Jacket
Vinyl reissue of the 2003 Warner Records CD compilation of The Grateful Dead’s most memorable and fan favorites. The mammoth 17-song collection culled tracks not only from the Warner vaults, but also from The Grateful Dead label and Artista Records. The band’s best loved songs from Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty are featured with tracks like “Casey Jones,” “Uncle John’s Band,” “Truckin’” and “Sugar Magnolia.” More Dead anthems from the band’s own label are included, like “The Music Never Stopped,” “Eyes Of The World” and “U.S. Blues.” The later Arista era is highlighted with “Touch Of Grey,” “Fire On The Mountain” and “Estimated Prophet.”
Audiophile vinyl reissue by Friday Music includes two 180-gram discs remastered impeccably from the original tapes by Joe Reagoso and features all of the original 17 tracks hand-picked by Dead archivists James Austin and David Lemieux. Including the original CD cover artwork in a full album-sized gatefold presentation, with rare photos and a complete LP vinyl full-color cover discography.
