このコンテンツについて
The past several days have been a whirlwind of milestones, reunions, tributes, new releases, and bittersweet moments for Grateful Dead and their extended family of fans and musicians. The biggest headline is the official announcement by Rhino of the deluxe 50th-anniversary reissue of Blues for Allah, due September 12. This set features a remastered version of the original 1975 LP, two hours of previously unreleased rehearsal and concert recordings from the mid-70s, and multiple collectible formats, including a picture disc, a Midnight Fire custom vinyl, and a Blu-ray exclusive. Steven Wilson has delivered fresh Dolby Atmos, surround sound, and instrumental remixes for the Blu-ray edition, and the early-release single The Music Never Stopped is already making waves among audio geeks and Deadheads alike, as confirmed by Live for Live Music.
Meanwhile, the city of San Francisco was the epicenter for the band’s landmark 60th anniversary with a sold-out three-night run in Golden Gate Park August 1 to 3. These emotionally charged shows, which coincided with what would have been Jerry Garcia’s 83rd birthday, were marked as a possible final appearance for surviving original members in the city that birthed the band. John Mayer—who has carried the torch with Dead & Company since 2015—posted a heartfelt social media tribute, reflecting on his collaboration with Trey Anastasio and his reverence for Garcia’s legacy. The concerts drew massive crowds, with rotating guest performers like Billy Strings, Sturgill Simpson, and Trey Anastasio giving each night a unique feeling. Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, and Bill Kreutzmann each shared messages of gratitude and nostalgia, with Kreutzmann notably reiterating the ethos of survival and community that defines the Dead’s ongoing story, according to The San Francisco Chronicle.
In a poignant footnote, SFGATE reports that a devoted fan, Fred Cothard, sadly died in the crowd during the August 3 Dead & Company set. His family, who described his lifelong love of traveling to shows, has launched a fundraiser in his memory, drawing heartfelt support from the Dead’s extended community.
Elsewhere, tribute and celebration continue. Missoula marked Jerry Garcia’s 30th yahrzeit and the Grateful Dead’s 60th year with a packed Missoula Dead Day in Caras Park, echoing similar commemorations at film screenings like The Grateful Dead Movie 2025 Meet-Up in Maine. Social media remains energized, with posts and reflections from family members like Grahame Lesh, who performed onstage with Dead & Company before announcing a brief personal hiatus, per JamBands.com. The coming weeks promise more: a major Grateful Dead tribute festival is slated for Warwick Valley on August 24. Across fan forums, Instagram, and the band’s official channels, the spirit of the Dead—a vibrant blend of nostalgia and forward momentum—shows absolutely no sign of fading.
