NO ISSUES TO DISCS Grateful DeadRelease DateFri, 09/18/2015GRATEFUL DEAD: 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUNThe Dead's Largest Boxed Set Ever Commemorates 50th AnniversaryWith 30 Unreleased Concerts Spanning The Band's Entire CareerThe Grateful Dead played 2,318 live shows, more than any other band in the history of music. For 30 years, the band's live performances were constantly morphing and evolving, making every show a unique experience. Now, in the midst of their 50th anniversary, the Grateful Dead announce their most ambitious release ever: 30 TRIPS AROUND THE SUN. The collection includes 30 unreleased live shows, one for each year the band was together from 1966 to 1995, along with one track from their earliest recording sessions in 1965. Packed with over 73 hours of music the boxed set will be individually numbered limited editions with a release date of September 18, 2015.The 80-disc boxed set version comes in an ornate box that is individually numbered and limited to 6,500 copies, a nod to the band's formation in 1965. Along with the CDs, it also includes a gold-colored 7-inch vinyl single which bookends the band's career. The A-side is "Caution (Do Not Stop On Tracks)" from the band's earliest recording session in 1965 with the B-side of the last song the band ever performed together live, "Box Of Rain" recorded during their final encore at Soldier Field in Chicago on July 9, 1995."When we began discussing audio projects to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead back in 2012, we knew we wanted to do something completely unprecedented. We could think of nothing more exciting or ambitious than a career-spanning overview of the band's live legacy focused on what best tells the story: complete concerts," says band archivist and producer David Lemieux. "Our first criterion was the very best live music to represent any given year in the band's history. We wanted to make sure that there were not only the tent-pole shows that fans have been demanding for decades but also ones that are slightly more under the radar, but equally excellent. For those who listen to the entire box straight through, chronologically, the narrative of the Grateful Dead's live legacy will be seen as second to none in the pantheon of music history."The first four shows included in 30 TRIPS have been announced today and include a 1967 show at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles and a 1987 show at New York's Madison Square Garden. The remaining shows will be revealed in the coming weeks on dead.net so stay tuned for updates. All 30 of the unreleased shows in 30 TRIPS will not be available for individual purchase on CD at any time in the future.The box also comes with a 288-page book that features an extensive, career-spanning essay written by Nick Meriwether, who oversees the Dead archives at the University of California, Santa Cruz, along with special remembrances of the band submitted by fans. Also included is a scroll that offers a visual representation of how the band's live repertoire has evolved through the years. Let me know if you have any questions.
