EUROPE ’72: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS

•Dead.net Packs Replica Steamer Trunk With 73 Discs Capturing

Every Note Recorded From The Dead’s First European Tour

•Produced From The Original 16-Track Tapes

•The First 3,000 Orders Will Receive A Personalized Copy

•Individually Numbered, Limited Edition Collection

This gargantuan, beautifully designed EUROPE ’72 MEGA-BOX SET containing ALL 22 SHOWS of what is arguably the greatest tour the Grateful Dead ever played, on a whopping 73 DISCS (over 70 hours of music!).

An individually numbered, limited edition collection that includes 73 discs with over 70 hours of music featuring every show from what is arguably the Grateful Dead’s greatest tour.

EUROPE ’72: THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS is housed in a replica steamer trunk reminiscent of the ones prevalently used at the time. Along with the music, a vast majority of which is previously unreleased, the travel chest contains tour memorabilia, a coffee-table book with never-before-seen photos, and a comprehensive essay by noted Dead author Blair Jackson.

Each performance will also be accompanied by an essay specific to the show written by top Dead scholars including David Gans, Gary Lambert, Nicholas Meriwether, and Steve Silberman.

Jeffrey Norman, the primary mixer of the Dead’s archival multi-track material for the past 15 years, is mixing each show from the original 16-track recordings, with the high-tech Plangent Processes transfer and restoration tools used to bring the master tapes back to life. Two-time Grammy®-winning engineer David Glasser is mastering the music to HDCD specs. While many of the recordings heard on Europe ’72 were sweetened in the studio after the tour, those tracks will be included in this collection without overdubs, where possible.
