Doing A 180: The Grateful Dead, Shrine Exhibition Hall, Los Angeles, CA 11/10/1967

You can never have too many Grateful Dead live albums - just ask any Deadhead, they'll tell you - but even in a field as crowded as this one, Shrine Exhibition Hall, Los Angeles, CA 11/10/1967 truly stands out, which is why we're thrilled to release it on 180-gram vinyl as part of our Start Your Ear Off Right campaign.

Why does it stand out? Well, for one, check out that date. When was the last time you heard a Dead show from '67? Unless you're a true diehard, it's highly probable that you've never heard one, so that makes it special from the get-go. For another, this is the first time one of the concerts from our 30 Trips Around the Sun set has earned its own release, which is another accomplishment of note.

That last one really got your attention, didn't it? This is no time for kidding around, Deadheads. If this sounds like a must-own to you - and we know it does - then you'd better get on the stick and order a copy ASAP!
