It's All Variations On Some Impossible Lick
- Excerpt From The 20th Anniversary Rag By Robert Hunter
Come on the run with us as we revisit the Grateful Dead's groove starting to click again during their high-octane "Twenty Years So Far" anniversary tour. SUMMER MAGIC 1985 is comprised of seven previously unreleased concerts - all three official 20th anniversary shows at the Greek (6/14-6/16/85); Saratoga Performing Arts Center (6/27/85); Hershey Park Stadium (6/28/85); Merriweather (6/30/85) and (7/1/85) - that find the band recapturing their unique spiritual fusion of communal energy, musical improvisation, and psychedelic style. This untamable synergy shines through countless somewhat-rare and stellar moments (such as “Midnight Hour,” “Dupree’s Diamond Blues,” a first-set “Crazy Fingers,” “Supplication” jam, the “Crypticals,” “Down In The Bottom”>“I Ain’t Superstitious,” and “Keep On Growing) and through not one, not two, but THREE double encores. 'Twas a hot summer, indeed!
Arriving September 18th, SUMMER MAGIC 1985 is individually numbered to 10,000 copies and exclusive to Dead.net. It was recorded by Dan Healy and has been mastered by Grammy® Award-Winning Engineer David Glasser at Airshow Mastering, with new essays by Nicholas G. Meriweather And David Lemieux, art by Marcos Alvarado and design by Pablo Valdez and Steve Vance.
