Grateful Dead Release Outtakes Collection 'The Angel's Share'
Dead and Company are taking this weekend off for their One More Saturday Night series but Grateful Dead fans do have a new collection of previously unreleased studio outtakes to enjoy this Fourth Of July weekend, courtesy of the new "The Angel's Share" digital compilation.
The collection features over two and half hours of outtakes from the band's "Workingman's Dead" sessions, released just in time for that album's 50th anniversary last month.
The band said on their website, "Compiled from dozens of 16-track reels that were recently discovered in unlabeled boxes, The Angel's Share includes outtakes for every song on the album, which have been unheard since they left the studio over 50 years ago.
"Under the supervision of David Lemieux, engineer Brian Kehew and archivist Mike Johnson spent countless hours compiling and piecing these reels together to create the final opus." Stream the collection here and see the tracklisting below:
