Grateful Dead
To Terrapin: Hartford ‘77
3-CD Set
Street Date: 4/7/09
BACKGROUND:
As they were prepping for the summer release of their first studio album in two years, Terrapin Station, the Grateful Dead blew the roof off Connecticut’s Hartford Civic Center on the closing night of their spring '77 tour. A show long sought after by Dead fans, the set features inspired versions of songs that would soon come out on Terrapin, including "Estimated Prophet," "Passenger," and the title track. Epic jams also include, of course, "One More Saturday Night," "Jack Straw," "Candyman," "U.S. Blues," and takes on "Tennessee Jed" and "Sugaree" that many fans claim are as good as any ever recorded.
Released in celebration of the Dead’s ’09 tour—which plays Hartford—and presented in HDCD, the recordings from this previously unissued show were mastered from the original two track master analog tapes.

There is no special "bonus" disk in this offer. You should be able to get at Worst Buy for a decent new release price.
They added a new tour date at Rothbury MI Jul 2-5. I am not sure what day the Dead will play. Search for Rothbury for the complete band listing, I posted it last night.
