This Record Store Day, revisit the Grateful Dead's show at Boston Music Hall on 6/11/76.

The show is the third of four consecutive nights at Boston Music Hall. The new live album spans across five LPs, pressed on 180-gram vinyl, and features classics like “Scarlet Begonias” and “Brown-Eyed Women.

” The set derives from 2020’s CD box set, which received tape restoration and speed correction. Limited to 7,600 copies, it was remastered for vinyl by Jeffrey Norman, and produced by the band’s archivist, David Lemieux. “The fifth show of the Grateful Dead’s comeback tour in June 1976 finds the band firing on all cylinders as they settle back into life on the road,” Lemieux said in a statement. “A set list filled with older material , new material , and new arrangements of classics from the Dead’s early days , this new iteration of the Grateful Dead featuring the return of Mickey Hart is one of the most powerful and precise versions of the band to date.” “With the Wall of Sound retired, the Dead were playing the intimate confines of small theaters for the first time in years, and the perfection they achieved on this tour is on full display on June 11, 1976, in Boston,” he added. “The magnificence of the vocal arrangements is one of the many new sonic highlights of the 1976 Grateful Dead, many Dead Heads saying the vocal harmonies never sounded as great as they did in June 1976. Songs like ‘Looks Like Rain’ and ‘The Music Never Stopped’ show off this renewed focus on the spectacular vocals the Dead were able to achieve.”, their collaboration with Dogfish Brewery. Both are the band’s first Record Store Day releases following the death of guitarist Bob Weir, whoGrammy Awards: Full Winners ListSVA Chair David A.
