Aces Back to Back: The History of the Grateful Dead (1965 - 2013)

The most detailed and accurate history of the Grateful Dead ever written

This special, 20th anniversary edition of Aces Back to Back, first published in 1992, updates the Grateful Deadâ€™s history through 2013. With a Foreword from acclaimed Dead lyricist John Barlow, Aces Back to Back is the most thorough account of the Deadâ€™s careerâ€”from their inception, through the death of Jerry Garcia, and on to their incarnations as the Other Ones, the Dead, RatDog, Phil Lesh and Friends, the Mickey Hart Band, 7 Walkers, and Furthur.

The Grateful Dead formed in 1965 â€” at the height of the decadeâ€™s counterculture â€” with a fresh, unique style. The Sixties were a tumultuous time, a time of change, and the Deadâ€™s music reflected the peopleâ€™s tide of emotions and changing lives. They soon developed a dedicated following, whose numbers have grown and evolved over the last several decades along with their musical icons. Today, the Grateful Deadâ€™s music continues to reverberate within the hearts and souls of their fans â€” faithful, long-time Deadheads and younger audiences drawn to the bandâ€™s legendary, magical appeal. Aces Back to Back is a must-read for fans of all ages !!
