Grateful Dead byla americká rocková skupina založená v roce 1965 v Palo Alto, proslulá eklektickým stylem kombinujícím rock, folk, bluegrass, blues, country, jazz, psychedelii a reggae. Známá byla dlouhými improvizacemi na koncertech a oddanou fanouškovskou základnou zvanou Deadheads.
Výroční reedice pátého studiového alba American Beauty z listopadu 1970, původně vydaného vydavatelstvím Warner Bros. Records, nyní přichází na třech discích pod hlavičkou Grateful Dead Records. Deska navázala na předchozí country a folk rockový zvuk alba Workingman's Dead a vstřebávala vlivy Boba Dylana a Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Toto rozšířené vydání obsahuje původních 10 studiových skladeb včetně Truckin', Ripple či Box of Rain a přidává kompletní koncertní záznam z Capitol Theatre v Port Chester, NY, z 18. února 1971, celkem 33 nahrávek.
Na albu se podíleli Ron „Pigpen“ McKernan, Jerry Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, Tom Constanten, Bruce Hornsby, Robert Hunter a Rob Wasserman.
