Набор содержит двенадцать компакт-дисков формата HDCD (High Definition Compatible Digital), а также два 100-страничных буклета: один о группе, другой об альбомах.
Открытый бокс. Бокс в превосходном состоянии. Диски и буклеты в идеальном состоянии.
Американская рок-группа Grateful Dead была образована в 1965 году и просуществовала до 1995. Взлёт группы произошел во время выступлений на фестивалях в Монтерее (1967) и в Вудстоке (1969) - после этого команда заняла прочное место в американской контркультуре. Группа оставила после себя огромное наследие - порядка 30 альбомов, которые оказали серьезное влияние на развитие рок-музыки.
