Synopsis

Infinite Dead is a new, groundbreaking guide to Grateful Dead concerts. Authoritative and entertaining, Volume 1 features detailed reviews of every Grateful Dead concert performed in the month of October—over 200 shows, including:

● The three-set, acoustic-electric performances at The Warfield in San Francisco and Radio City Music Hall in New York City;

● Their five-night “final” stand at the Winterland Ballroom in 1974; and

● Thirteen Halloween performances, from their first in 1966 to their last in 1991.

Also included in this volume is the band’s revival of “Dark Star” (10/9/89 Hampton Coliseum), “St. Stephen” (10/11/83 Madison Square Garden), and “Turn On Your Love Light” (10/16/81 Melkweg).

Whether you’re a next-generation Deadhead just discovering their music or a long-time fan with an extensive collection of recordings, Infinite Dead brings the Grateful Dead concert experience alive again: Jerry Garcia’s soaring solos, Bob Weir’s energetic vocals, Phil Lesh’s bass bombs, Bill and Mickey’s “Drums,” “Space,” and so much more.
