Newly remastered for vinyl by Jeffrey Norman, featuring Plangent Processes tape restoration and speed correction. Produced for release by Grateful Dead archivist and legacy manager, David Lemieux. Limited Edition of 7,600
“The fifth show of the Grateful Dead's comeback tour in June 1976 finds the band firing on all cylinders as they settle back into life on the road. A setlist filled with older material (“Candyman,” “Eyes Of The World,” “Tennessee Jed”), new material (“Might As Well,” “Lazy Lightning” > “Supplication,” “Samson and Delilah”), and new arrangements of classics from the Dead's early days (“St. Stephen,""Dancing In The Street”), this new iteration of the Grateful Dead featuring the return of Mickey Hart is one of the most powerful and precise versions of the band to date. With the Wall Of Sound retired, the Dead were playing the intimate confines of small theatres for the first time in years, and the perfection they achieved on this tour is on full display on June 11, 1976, in Boston. The magnificence of the vocal arrangements is one of the many new sonic highlights of the 1976 Grateful Dead, many Dead Heads saying the vocal harmonies never sounded as great as they did in June 1976. Songs like “Looks Like Rain” and “The Music Never Stopped” show off this renewed focus on the spectacular vocals the Dead were able to achieve.” - David Lemieux

Joni Mitchell - For The Roses
1LP on Rose Colored Vinyl
Joni's 1972 album For The Roses was her first for David Geffen's Asylum Records. Joni originally had intended the album cover to be art that she created that was illustrative of the song, "For The Roses," and showed her cynicism to the music business at the time. Geffen vetoed her artwork because he thought it was not a good look to have a horse with roses coming out of its ass! So Joni ultimately compromised to use the Joel Bernstein photo that was ultimately the cover. This special limited edition for Record Store Day restores Joni's original vision for the cover artwork for the first time.
