Best of the Grateful Dead on 2LP

The Grateful Dead‘s 50th Anniversary ‘Best Of’ which was issued on CD last month, is coming to vinyl LP.

The chronological order of these studio cuts remains, but this double-LP set only takes in ‘disc one’ of the two-CD package (hence the ‘1967-1977’ subtitle) and ends with Estimated Prophet from Terrapin Station. This sixteen minute title track from that album doesn’t feature however, and presumably that will kick off a volume two ‘1977-1989’.

This vinyl package will still feature the new remasters of course and will, presumably, use the same versions of each track including the rare single edit of Dark Star.

The Best of the Grateful Dead 1967-1977 on 2LP is released on 8 June 2015.
