Hello. For your consideration is this in excellent condition Grateful Dead live at the Hampton Coliseum on 5/4/79. This is a 2-lp, 180gm set in a full artwork covered gatefold. This was the live Dead offering for RSD 2014. This was only released on vinyl. The art was done by Kyle Fields. This was Brent Mydland’s 3rd show playing with the Dead. A must have for you Brent heads!

This set was only spun once. But because it is not brand new, I will call it used and in excellent condition. The gatefold is crisp with sharp corners. There is one very small corner bump...so small you can’t even see it in the pics. The original seal was the type with the perforated strip to open it, so that strip is gone, but the outer plastic sleeve with hype sticker is there and excellent. There is also an additional thick plastic sleeve over the original. The lps are stored in MOFI Original Master Sleeves (see last photo). This is a very rare piece of this concert which was only released on vinyl. There are only audience recordings other than this official sbd release. This is what was in the vault, and it is a rare and incredible sounding look at the Grateful Dead’s first concert at the Hampton Coliseum and Brent’s third show on 5/4/79. The track lists and some album info are below.

Please do not hesitate to send an offer, I may accept it...the worst I can do is deny it, but if it appears you are serious, and I do not accept your first offer, I will send a counteroffer, and from there I’m sure we can figure out a deal that works for us both. If there is a mistake on my end, not only will there be a no hassle return, but I will refund your entire payment, and pay for return shipping.

Please look at all the photos of the actual item for sale. Please ask any questions you may have, I will get back to you asap. I will package this safely and securely, and I will ship it for free using media mail with tracking. There will also be a priority shipping option available at the buyers expense. To choose this other option, just click on shipping options during checkout and choose whichever method you prefer. I will ship within 24 hours of completed payment during open post office business days. Even same day, if purchase is completed before my postal person has stopped by for the day...usually around 10:30 am west coast time.
