Lyceum Theatre, London, England 5/26/72 - The Grateful Dead [CD]

This 4-CD set spotlights the epic last show of the Dead's European tour. Notably, it was also the group's penultimate performance with founding member, Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan, who died in March the following year. Despite his failing health, Pigpen electrified European audiences with his charismatic performances of 'Chinatown Shuffle,' 'Good Lovin'' and (his latest song) 'The Stranger (Two Souls In Communion).' The tour, and the show, represents a bittersweet capstone to his too-short career.
