Grateful Dead - 1970-04-03 - Cincinnati, OH (SBD)

1970s - #2: After the psychedelic live trip that was the year 1969, the Grateful Dead used 1970 to hone their song writing, vocal harmonies, and studio recordings. Two of the band’s finest albums, Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty, were released in 1970. In fact, legend has it that Jerry Garcia had made an arrangement that in return for his playing pedal steel guitar on Teach Your Children, CSNY would teach the members of the Grateful Dead how to sing harmony for those albums. In any event, just because the Dead spent significant time in the studio in 1970 doesn't mean they didn’t go out on the road. In fact, the band played 142 live shows in 1970! This soundboard captures the Dead on April 3, 1970 54 years ago today, in Cincinnati, featuring a set list that clearly demonstrates the band's transition - 2 electric sets that reflect back to 1969 and an acoustic one featuring tunes from both 1970 albums.
