Tech Notes: |
We are very happy to be offering as an exclusive download for gdstore.com customers, for
the first time in ANY format, the complete 1 disc recording of the Grateful Dead's
February 4, 1970 performance at the Family Dog
Perhaps you've seen a grainy bootleg VHS tape of the three songs from that show broadcast
on PBS, but Jeffrey Norman has mixed the entire 50+ minute set from the original 16 track
analog tapes, including the closing jam of "St. Stephen > Not Fade Away > St. Stpehen >
Midnight Hour," along with a poignant "Black Peter," "Me and My Uncle," and the "Hard To
Handle" and "China > Rider" from the PBS broadcast.
It has never sounded so good. And, because we have some stray pieces of music in the vault
on 16 track tape, we have also included the monster "Dancing In The Streets" from 10/5/70
and the meaty "Good Lovin'" from 12/31/70 to round out this wonderful CD of music from the
under-represented year of 1970..
