| | Album Notes and Credits | Notes & Personnel Info |  | Grateful Dead: Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir (vocals, guitar); Phil Lesh (vocals, bass); Keith Godchaux (piano); Bill Kreutzmann (drums, percussion); Mickey Hart (percussion); Donna Godchaux (background vocals). |  | Recorded live at Winterland, San Francisco, California on October 16-20, 1974. |  | All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. |  | Recorded during a stretch of live shows at San Francisco's Winterland venue in 1974, this two-CD set contains some of the best Grateful Dead performances ever officially released. The first CD starts with two Chuck Berry songs and an old traditional tune, "Cold Rain & Snow," highlighting the band's roots. The touching "Stella Blue" and the wryly melancholy "Ship of Fools" follow. |  | The second CD is exceptional. Vigorous interpretations of Johnny Cash's "Big River" and Marty Robbins' "El Paso" spike a quintet of classic Dead songs, from the crowd-pleasing "Casey Jones" to the beloved shuffle of "Sugaree." "U.S. Blues," one of their most exuberant and freewheeling compositions, is a blast of sunshine, and "Black-Throated Wind" reveals itself as perhaps the band's most underrated composition. If this wasn't enough, STEAL YOUR FACE also includes the definitive version of "It Must Have Been the Roses," itself a charming study in the Grateful Dead's unique brand of folk/country/rock. |
