Truly one of the most-popular Grateful Dead " Album " releases among Music Fans, during its time ... and just to think - it 1972 when this Album was initially released - not only was it still tough to get a Grateful Dead Studio Compilation ( as this release was indeed " Pre " Skeletons From The Closet ( 1974 ) ) ... but it was even harder to find a quality pro-released selection of " Live " Grateful Dead !?!

I listened to it just not too long-ago, and was Smiling ! from ear to ear - as before this listen ... it had indeed been Years ! since I had ! This was released in 1989 ( and in the 1990's ) by Warner Bros. Records in the " CD " format as a response to not only the arrival & predominance of ' digital-technology ' at the time - but also ... because of Dead Fan Fever ! caused as a direct effect of the Grateful Dead Live-Touring ! ... from both ! " In The Dark " (1987) & " Built To Last " - as both the Dead Fan Faithful ! and also the New Generation of Dead Fans were hungry for more Studio & Live Dead !!! And, this release is just so-Vintage ! - and So Incredibly Musically-Awesome ! as well - in regard to the studio songs selected - and also the performance-quality of the Live Tracks ! Take one listen to this G.D. Rock & Roll Classic ! in your music studio - your car - or your easy-chair ... and there is absolutely no-question on the topic at hand -- " What A Long Strange Trip It's Been !!!! " -- " WALSTIB !!!
