Grateful Dead Reveal ‘Fare Thee Well’ Release Details

The Grateful Dead will bring their 50th anniversary ‘Fare Thee Well’ concerts home to fans this fall. The commemorative collection, ‘Fare Thee Well: Celebrating 50 Years of Grateful Dead,’ is scheduled to arrive in stores on November 20. It’ll be available in anything from a double-disc ‘best of’ collection featuring highlights of the shows to an exhaustively complete box that gathers ‘every single note heard’ during the band’s three-night stand at Soldier Field in Chicago on July 3, 4 and 5. The retail version of ‘Fare Thee Well’ is available for pre-order now and offers full audio and video from the July 5 concert. The ‘best of’ set bundles performances from all three nights. Digital downloads will also be available for both editions.
