Dual Legacies Of The Grateful Dead: Official And Unofficial, Jeremy Berg
Dual Legacies Of The Grateful Dead: Official And Unofficial, Jeremy Berg
Faculty and Staff Publications – Milner Library
This presentation explores the dual recorded legacies of the Grateful Dead: the official legacy of studio and live albums, controlled by the band and their record companies, and the unofficial legacy of concert recordings, controlled by the fans. The presentation includes a discussion of the Thanksgiving Day Massacre (when on November 22, 2005, all Grateful Dead shows were removed from the Live Music Archive) and the incident's effect on band/fan and official/unofficial recorded legacy cooperations and conflicts.
