Just arrived today, from the wonderful Nail City Record. We got five LPs of killer Dead from an era that I don’t often explore, drawn from last year’s massive MSG 81/82/83 box set and given a standalone vinyl release, with artwork derived from its parent box (the packaging of which earned the Dead their first-ever Grammy). This was the early Brent era and the band was finally hitting full stride, evidenced here from the get-go with a certifiably wicked “Feel Like A Stranger” that kicks off this fiery set. The recording is super clean and the vinyl cut sounds phenomenal. These damn Dead boxes are gonna be the death of me but they are all so worth it.
The next few hours are gonna be fun.
