Grateful Dead
Workingman's Dead 50th Anniversary Edition

[ Rhino / Warner / 3 CD ]

Release Date: Friday 10 July 2020

On June 14, 1970, the Grateful Dead released Workingman's Dead, an album that was unlike anything they'd ever done, one that showed the world a new side of the Dead. It was clearly the same band as before, but now with a distinctly different sound and approach to the music, pivoting from psychedelic improvisation to folk-rock storytelling for the "everyman," as the album's title suggests.

Workingman's Dead will celebrate its 50th anniversary with two new releases.

3CD set includes the original album with newly remastered sound, plus an unreleased concert recorded on February 21, 1971 at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. The show was mixed from the 16-track analogue master tapes by Jeffrey Norman at Bob Weir's Marin County TRI Studios and mastered by Grammy® Award-winning engineer, David Glasser.
