The Grateful Dead Announce Box Set Titled “June 1976”
via dead.net
To Be Released Next Month
The Grateful Dead will drop their massive “June 1976” box set this March 20 via Rhino. The five-show, 15-CD collection features concerts from June 1976 – June 10 and 11 at the Boston Music Hall, June 14 and 15 at New York City’s Beacon Theatre, and June 19 at New Jersey’s Capitol Theatre.
Produced byDavid Lemieux, it follows the band’s touring after their lengthy hiatus. Lemieux told Rolling Stone, “Gone was the massive, financially draining, and physically exhausting Wall of Sound PA system. The stadiums and hockey arenas were replaced by beautiful, small theaters, Mickey Hart was back in the band after a five-year sabbatical, and the repertoire had changed quite a bit.”
The “June 1976” box set is available for preorder. There will only be 12,000 individually numbered copies. Check out the track list below. Meanwhile, the Grateful Dead also streamed a live version of “Friend of the Devil” recorded at New York’s Beacon Theatre.
