The new Vault release, "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Grateful Dead" is a
compilation of all five shows from the April, '71 Fillmore run. LAGTGD is
from the multitrack masters and is commercially available on Arista, or from
GDM at http://mars.dead.net
For the obsessive completist collectors, here are the complete 4-29-71
NRPS & Dead Sets directly from two-track masters. The well-known cuts from
previous versions are still present on this version (Bird Song, Me & My
Bobby McGee, and China Rider).
