You are here and we are here and the Grateful Dead are once again ready to "blow your mind." Now available, the SKULL & ROSES (50TH ANNIVERSARY EXPANDED EDITION) 2CD set features the album’s original 11 tracks, newly remastered from the stereo analog master tapes by GRAMMY® Award winning engineer David Glasser using Plangent Process Speed Correction. It's topped off with more than an hour of previously unreleased live recordings taken from the much-requested July 2, 1971 performance at the Fillmore West, the band’s final performance at the historic San Francisco venue. Standouts include the 17-minute Pigpen spectacular “Good Lovin’,” an achingly beautiful take on Merle Haggard’s “Sing Me Back Home,” and a spell-binding version of “The Other One” that rivals the one captured on the original Side 2.
