Grateful Dead - Terrapin Limited 3 CD set from the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland on 3/15/90. Grateful Dead Records
is pleased to offer this very special, limited, collectors edition, three
CD set packaged in a die-cut and sequentially numbered slip case. The
package includes a 9 1/2" x 14" poster by the legendary Mouse and Kelley,
creators of the classic 1977 Terrapin Station album cover. GRATEFUL DEAD Disc One: Disc Two: Disc Three:
A limited edition three-CD set put out in 1997 to raise funds for the Dead's prospective Terrapin Station museum/performance space, this beautiful package features the entire 3/15/90 show from the Capitol Centre in Landover, Maryland, which fell on Phil's 50th birthday. It's a rip-roaring good time from beginning to end: The first disc contains fine versions of "Jack Straw," "Sugaree," "Althea," "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" and "Cassidy." The second set, which is spread over two discs, offers "China Cat Sunflower" > "I Know You Rider," a majestic "Terrapin" worthy of naming the CD after, and "Wharf Rat," among other delights. It's one of those shows where you can hear that the band is having a great time onstage, and their joy and playfulness is infectious. Garcia even plays a few notes of "Happy Birthday" to his bandmate at the close of "Just like Tom Thumb's Blues." The recording by John Cutler is flawless. If I had to choose just one of the four 1990 live CD sets available, I'd take this one. |
