Massive Live Dead Box Coming in Fall

January 19, 2011 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

Do you love The Grateful Dead? I mean really love-with-capital-letters-bold-italicized-and-underlined LOVE The Grateful Dead? Well, there's a massive box set coming your way to help you express that love.

In its newest issue, Rolling Stone reports a box is coming from Rhino that will chronicle The Dead's European tour of 1972 in its entirety, all from original 16-track recordings. It's going to be 60 discs of 22 shows, in their entirety, unedited and bursting at the seams with liner notes and other bonus material. (This tour has been previously anthologized on the overdubbed Warner Bros. triple album Europe '72 (1972), the four-disc Arista box Steppin' Out: England '72 (2002) and Rhino's Rockin' the Rhein with The Grateful Dead (2004).)

Now, the set is available for pre-order through the band's Web site. But there is sort of a catch. "This individually numbered boxed set will be limited to orders placed with a maximum of 7,200 boxes produced. As a special bonus, the first 3,000 orders will receive a personalized copy," the site says. "Due to the huge manufacturing costs...we need to hit 3,000 sales before we even go into production." So make plans for this $450 set soon if you're a fan.

The box will be due in September. Order it here and hit the jump to see the gigs that will be captured in the set.

Mike Duquette

Michael Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he discovered there was more than one version of John Williams' soundtrack to E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, with bylines on catalog at Discogs, City Pages and Ultimate Prince and credits on titles including the Grammy-winning 'Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with an ever-expanding collection of music.
