***  2009 Japanese Printing ( Sony Music Japan ( SICP 2014 ) -- Remastered !!!  ***

Dylan Fans ! - Dead Fans !! - and especially those of there who might perhaps be new to both ?  Wow ... Dylan AND The Dead ?!??  Does it get any better than this ?  Could it possibly ??  Personally, I think not.  This '87 Tour - a real & in the flesh - Live ! meeting of the Rock 'n Roll Superpowers !  was Absolutely-Incredible !! - and there were only 6-Shows booked ( 3 on the East Coast / 3 on the West Coast ) for the very-very lucky ones who caught This-Tour !  I saw video of the Giants Stadium 7/19/87 Show not too long ago - and was simply blown-away - Dylan strummin' away on a Washburn Acoustic ( with fingerless gloves ! ) -- and even Garcia on Pedal Steel !!!  Just awesome ...  I love my Rock 'n Roll just as much as the next very-serious Fan - but ... for me personally ?  This release is one that I can Never-Ever ! get enough of.  It has been a Musical-Staple in my Heart - Mind & Soul well-over 35-Years ! now ... since its inaugural release in 1989 - on the Columbia label ( per Dylan's record contract ).  There is both the Subtle & Excellent - and also the Power - Musical-control - Lightning ! & Thunder !! in this-release.  Talk about Tone - Confidence and Trust on stage as a ' Band ' in the guys next to you - also carrying their part of the load.  I often joke with my Friends & fellow Music Lovers that this 1987 ( & 1986 too ! ) unit of " Dylan & The Dead " featuring Bob Dylan - Jerry Garcia - Bob Weir - Phil Lesh - Mickey Hart - Billy Kreutzman & Brent Mydland is indeed the Best-Band Ever ! that has ever played together live.  And you know what - in truth ... I'm not certain that this is any joke at all -- as I personally believe it to be true - when it comes to Rock 'n Roll being played ' properly ' ... which, unfortunately is a somewhat dying-off art form here in today's recent age.  I would take these 6-men at each ' position ' over almost anyone ... sure, there might be a possible exception - or two - but as a whole ?  I don't know ... they are all just that good at what they do - and know one can do it just quite like them.  Granted, these are just my personal feeling on the matter - but as you can see, on this one ... I do feel this strongly.  It might not be for everybody out there, and that I do realize - but for me, and my ears & mind ... this here fellow Fans - is an instructional on how Rock 'n Roll should be played - and played well.  Long-Live ! ... " Dylan & The Dead !!! ".  Even in the Rare & Cool ! 2009 Remastered - " Japanese Printing " Format !!  One which brings back the long-lost & beloved ' Tradition ' of the Artistic Record Album Style & Fashion -- check out the photos provided of just how Cool ! this Set is for the Music Collector !!!  Enjoy !!!!!
