Deluxe anniversary edition, with bonus live CD
“This
is one the most thrilling albums the Grateful Dead ever produced, mixing
portions of live recordings from the first six months of Mickey's tenure
with the band, along with studio experimentations that would hint at where
the Dead would go when they started recording to 16-track tape the following
year. The 1971 remix, produced in order to make the album more accessible
to the newer fans who were brought on board with WORKINGMAN'S DEAD and
AMERICAN BEAUTY, has been the most commonly heard version for the past
45+ years. However, having this side-by-side with the original 1968 mix
demonstrates countless differences, with the original mix being more primal,
psychedelic, and experimental. Add to this the first extant live recording
featuring Mickey as a member of the Grateful Dead, and you have a very
special release in every way.” -
David Lemieux
We're continuing our 50th anniversary reissue series with ANTHEM OF THE SUN: 50th ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION, due July 13th. Released 50 years after its anniversary date, this two-disc deluxe version features a double dose of the original album - one fully remastered from the original 1968 mix and the other remastered from the more well-known 1971 mix - as well as a bonus disc of a previously unreleased complete live show recorded on October 22, 1967 at Winterland in San Francisco, CA. Newly remastered by Jeffrey Norman, this is the first known recording of the Grateful Dead with Mickey Hart, who joined the band in September 1967.
