The Grateful Dead

American Beauty - 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

£27.99

Released: 30th October 2020. The fifth studio album by the American rock band. Released in November 1970, the album continued the folk rock and country music style of their previous album 'Workingman's Dead', issued earlier in the year. Though the Americana approach is still evident in the songwriting, comparatively the sound focused more on folk harmonies and major-key melodies, showing influence from Bob Dylan and Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young. This 50th anniversary deluxe edtion includes the band's previously unreleased live performance from February 18, 1971 at the Capitol Theatre, one of the most requested archival recordings in the Dead's vault.
