Grateful Dead

On October 31, 1980, the Grateful Dead performed at Radio City Music Hall in New York for a memorable concert that marked the revival of their acoustic performances. Leading up to this recording, the band had released "Go to Heaven" in April 1980, which was their first studio album since the 1978's "From the Mars Hotel." The Radio City shows were significant as they marked a return to their acoustic roots after a decade, following their acoustic project "Reckoning" released in 1981. This concert's revival of acoustic elements showcased their versatility and innovation in blending rock with folk influences. Notably, the set included a rendition of "Good Lovin'," highlighting their ability to reinterpret popular songs with their unique style, further engaging audiences during a period of growth and experimentation for the band.
