Ladies and Gentlemen... The Grateful Dead - Grateful Dead (Arista 4075)
Released on October 10, 2000. This four CD album contains selections from
the Dead's April 25 to 29, 1971 shows at the Fillmore East. This release was
originally planned as a 15 CD boxed set (three CDs per jewel case per show) of
all five nights. During the preparations for this album, it was discovered
that many songs were unusable. When the Dead were making "Skull And Roses",
songs from this series of shows were considered for that album. These songs
were physically removed from the master reels and placed on individual tape
reels. The individual reels were then used for overdubs, etc. This resulted
in several songs being partially overdubbed and not completed (i.e. the vocals
may have been erased and not re-dubbed, etc. Additionally, several songs that
appear on "Skull And Roses" ("Wharf Rat" from April 28, 1971, "The Other One"
from April 28, 1971, and others) could not be used for this album. Of the 128
songs that were available, 41 appear on this album. From April 25, 1971:
"Next Time You See Me", "Beat It On Down The Line", "Second That Emotion",
"Good Loving", "Sugar Magnolia", "China Cat Sunflower" > "I Know You Rider",

1971: "Casey Jones", "Uncle John's Band", "Turn On Your Lovelight". From
April 28, 1971: "Me And My Uncle", "Cumberland Blues", "Me And Bobby McGee",
"Bird Song", "I'm A King Bee", "Ain't It Crazy (The Rub)", "Loser", "El Paso",

Bad" > "Not Fade Away", and "Wharf Rat". From April 29, 1971: "Trucking",
