Grateful Dead : 2008 : " Picture Disc CD ! " : Early '60's Grateful Dead Band Photo !!! : Relix Magazine - August 2008 Issue : 2008 Relix Magazine : Rare !!! O ne of the very few ... if not the only ? Grateful Dead " Band ! " Photo Picture CD ... including Pigpen !!!!! Dead Fans ... and Especially ! the ones who love their media, and pride themselves on " Collecting it all " ... All ! the Incredible G.D. Rarities !! Hey, I know the feeling ... Ha ! Well, here is one for your cherished Collection - that I'm thinking you quite-possibly do not have ? Maybe not, maybe so ?? As the photos show ... this is a way-cool Picture Disc CD ! that features a photo of what looks to be - The 1967 Grateful Dead ! Looking ready for action in this photo ... no doubt, and most importantly - even including Pigpen !! I'm not sure I've ever seen a CD with Pigpen on it, and can't even really think of another Picture Disc CD that features a photo of the Band !!?! I find great humor in the fact that Pig's mug is featured on a CD, because as the legend goes ... both Him & Garcia basically predicted the ' Future ' of Music in the digital format - and in a roundabout way, the future being the Compact Disc !! I read this somewhere long ago, and was fascinated - as I believe it might have been McNally's Book ? Can't remember ... Well, this one was issued by Relix Magazine way-back in August 2008, along with that month's issue - when they were including CD Samplers ' inside ' of the Magazine ! Just the CD itself, inside a thin plastic slipcase ( as shown in photo the photos). So yes, if you didn't get this one - and it passed you by at that time, well ... here's your shot to add this Way-Cool ! little G.D. Collectible to your G.D. Collection! There are Fifteen ( 15 ) Tracks on this one ( see below ! ), including the likes of Mike Gordon - Greensky Bluegrass - etc.. Always a good listen for any Dead Fan to check out some new stuff, at least speaking for myself ... as oh how we love to get stuck into our ' ways ' ! Enjoy !!!!! TRACK LISTING >>> 1.
