Description
Official set. The live albums the band released during its 30-year career are the primary source for the collection, including tracks like ìBerthaî from Grateful Dead (Skull & Roses) (1971), ìFire On The Mountainî from Dead Set (1981), and ìThe Music Never Stoppedî from One From the Vault (1991). A testament to its ongoing popularity, the revered double-album Europe í72 (1972), is represented by no less than five tracks, including ìSugar Magnolia,î ìJack Strawî and a searing rendition of ìMorning Dewî. Other performances on the set were selected from the growing number of live releases that have emerged since the death of founding member Jerry Garcia in 1995. Some of those recordings include ìTouch Of Greyî from Truckiní Up To Buffalo (2005), a 1990 version of ìEyes Of The Worldî with saxophonist Branford Marsalis featured on Wake Up To Find Out (2014), and ìEstimated Prophet,î which debuted earlier this year as part of Cornell 5/8/77, a recording of the Grateful Deadís mythic show at Cornell University in 1977, thought by many to be the bandís greatest live performance.
