The Grateful Dead’s Europe ’72 is 50

I am not a big fan of their long jams but there are a lot of excellent songs on this album which was a 3-record set. I love the version of “Comberland Blues”. I think this was their best period. I saw them in 1973 and the concert was not as good as this.

"Europe '72" by @GratefulDead was released exactly 50 years ago. And if you listen to this potent live set right now, it will STILL give you a powerful contact high. pic.twitter.com/y7hnPFyIvF

It’s the 50th anniversary of the release of EUROPE '72 🌈💀⚡️

In 1972, the Dead performed & recorded 21 live concerts with each night being an exceptional display of the magic that was uniquely the live Grateful Dead.

The lightning-in-a-bottle recording fueled a musical cult that has spanned half a century… and who knows where it’ll go from here. https://t.co/TabwiUFtP1
