The Music Box: Grateful Dead - Beyond Description (1973-1989) and Dead Set [Box Set/Album Review] (514 words)
Although the double-album attempted to mirror, at least in part, the structural make-up of the group’s concerts, the end result not only was devoid of continuity, but it also frequently felt like an inferior remake of Europe ’72.
To be fair, however, these deficiencies are so deeply rooted within the album’s architecture that they only could be rectified fully through a complete reconfiguration of the collection, one that would alter the affair to the point where all that it shared with its original format was a name.
Beautifully remastered, Dead Set now sparkles with a significantly enhanced sonic clarity, and even if it still isn’t the definitive concert collection by the Grateful Dead, there are far too many worthwhile moments contained on the refurbished outing for it to continue to be ignored completely.
