New Limited Edition GRATEFUL DEAD Releases Announced

David Lemieux has recently announced new forthcoming limited edition album releases from the GRATEFUL DEAD.

David is the band's new archivist and he has now renamed the project Dave's Picks.

The first release, at the beginning of next year,will feature the Grateful Dead's complete concert from May 25, 1977 at the Mosque in Richmond, Virginia.

Dave's Picks will be available both individually and by subscription via the Grateful Dead's official website. 

Subscribers will get all four quarterly 2012 releases as well as a collectable bonus CD. 

Each release will be limited to 12,000 numbered copies.
