The Grateful Dead have released the latest in the All the Years Live series on YouTube. The footage is of “Stagger Lee” and is from the final stop of the 1992 summer tour.
Here is what Grateful Dead archivist David Lemieux says about the performance: “Debuting in 1978, Stagger Lee was a reworked traditional story, with Hunter creating a visual masterpiece with his words. In the repertoire 1978-1979, and 1985-1995 (with a few versions in 1982), this song was a thrilling addition to the first sets of many Dead shows. This version is from the final show of the Summer Tour of 1992, after which the Dead took one of their longest breaks since the 1974-1976 hiatus, going five months without a show.”
Thanks to the Grateful Dead for the footage!
