Grateful Dead Remasters?

Rja,

Thanks. Thought they may only be avaiable through limited outlets. I also have the original vinyl, the early CD re-releases, and would love to hear some of the remasters to see if they take advantage of the newer technology. Off to BB tomorrow to see what they have. I am glad to see some of Garcias' side efforts are being redone. I have been looking for a copy of "Garcia" for a long time. Maybe I haven't been looking hard enough.

Relative to the older CDs the remasters replace a murky presentaion with real bass, more clarity and some air. In this case remastering has accomplished a huge improvement. Kudos to Rhino for doing justice to some fine music. Long live the Dead!
I remember when Time magazine declared The Band the greatest band in America. I remember thinking, wait a minute, how about the Dead. Now I always liked The Band but IMO they never produced an album as great as American Beauty or Workingman's Dead.
BTW: Rush Limbaughs statement "another dead junkie" in regard to Jerry Garcia really pissed me off. The Dead and Jerry Garcia have left a creative legacy of excellent music. What has Limbaugh created? Besides, who's the junkie?

Get the remasters..Buy both box sets and be done with it ..There amazing
