The Grateful Dead were at the center of the musical and cultural revolution that highlighted the Summer of Love in 1967. The band released their debut album that year, and played festivals such as the Human Be-In and of course, Monterrey Pop. Their psychedelic sound became synonymous with San Francisco, as did the image of hippies and the Flower Power Generation. Around 100,000 people traveled to San Francisco in the summer of 1967 and the media was right behind them. On July 7, Time Magazine featured a cover story entitled, The Hippies: The Philosophy of a Subculture, casting a spotlight on the Haight-Ashbury district of the city. Of course, the Dead were squarely in the middle of that as well, as the band was living at 710 Ashbury. You'll get their 1967 set at Monterrey Pop later this month, so today we jump ahead 2 dozen years for this soundboard recording from June 1, 1991, 31 years ago this very day,
