Synopsis

Album Description
UK collection that contains 22 classic recordings that inspired the members of The Grateful Dead and kick-started their musical journey. When a group of jug band musicians from San Francisco plugged into the mains, the Psychedelic era began. Exemplary musicianship and extended acid-fuelled jams created the legend that became the Grateful Dead. Their amazingly extensive repertoire showed that they never forgot their Folk-Blues roots and this collection features 22 of the tracks that inspired some of their most enduring performances. Includes cuts from Tampa Red, Bill Monroe, Slim Harpo, Elvis Presley, The Memphis Jug Band and many others. Complete Blues. 2008.
