• Track Listing

With Phil Lesh and Bob Weir contributing new Grateful Dead classics and Jerry Garcia presenting more sublime songs, the Grateful Dead were firing on all cylinders and reaching the peak of their in-studio powers as they created this 1970 triumph. Leading up to the unforgettable "Truckin’" are "Box of Rain," "Friend of the Devil," "Sugar Magnolia," "Operator," " Candyman," "Ripple," "Brokedown Palace," "Till the Morning Comes" and "Attics of My Life." The year 2020 has brought a lot of things, and one of the better among ’em is the 50th-anniversary celebration of this Grateful Dead Masterpiece. "American Beauty" is reborn here on remastered 180-gram vinyl, a 12" vinyl picture disc (limited edition) or a 3-CD deluxe edition. That deluxe set pairs the remastered album with the first commercial release of the band’s February 18, 1971 concert at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. Did you know that that show was a legendary one for Dead fans? That’s because the band premiered five songs that night: "Wharf Rat," "Playing in the Band," "Bertha," "Greatest Story Ever Told" and "Loser." That storied set also features "Truckin’," "Mama Tried," "Dark Star," "Not Fade Away," "St. Stephen," "Big Boss Man," "Me and Bobby McGee," "Casey Jones," "Johnny B. Goode" and more! Grateful Dead.
