Grateful Dead will release an expansive box set this summer called Here Comes Sunshine 1973.

The 17-CD collection arrives on June 30 and includes five previously unreleased live performances from the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Des Moines, Iowa (May 13, 1973); Campus Stadium, UCSB, Santa Barbara, California (May 20, 1973);  Kezar Stadium, San Francisco (May 26, 1973); and Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, Washington, D.C. (June 9 and 10, 1973).

"Maybe what makes this year (and '74 as well) so endlessly compelling most of all is the jazzy direction the band had taken over the last year or so," Ray Robertson writes in the set's liner notes. "This was a group of musicians that listened to each other's playing. The sum is greater than the already pretty great parts because the parts were paying attention to — and frequently being inspired by — the other parts. That's jazz. And 1973 is the Dead at their jazzy best."

Ahead of the release, the Dead's performance of "Ramble on Rose" from RFK Stadium on June 10, 1973, is available for listening below. At this show, which lasted nearly five hours, the Dead were joined by Dickey Betts and Butch Trucks of the Allman Brothers Band for an encore set that included covers like Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" and Bob Dylan's "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry." (This concert will also be released as a separate CD collection in addition to its inclusion in the box set.)

You can see a complete track listing for the box below.
