Spring 1990 is a live album by the rock band the Grateful Dead. It contains six complete concerts, on 18 CDs—one concert from each venue of their spring 1990 tour. It was released on August 31, 2012.[1][2][3]

Spring 1990 was produced as a box set, with a limited edition of 9,000 individually numbered copies. The box includes a 60-page hardcover book of essays and photos, along with memorabilia such as reproductions of the tour program, ticket stubs, and backstage passes.[1][2][3]

Speaking of the album in a 2012 interview with Rolling Stone, Bob Weir said, "For my money, this was our hottest era. We couldn't wait to go on tour; we couldn't wait to play because it was really working for us and it was keeping us amused. We had been working together as a unit for a good length of time.... We got comfortable enough in those tunes so that we could do a little exploration, harmonically, rhythmically, whatever. We could go places with them. Everybody has to be way in tune with each other to be able to do that."[4]

Looking back, Bill Kreutzmann said about the tour, "Brent played the best organ I’ve ever heard anybody play. He had the piss and the vinegar in him and he brought it to the table every night. The band, as a whole, had come alive again. Those shows had energy, with thunderbolts of electricity to spare. We didn’t wreck drum sets or smash guitars or dress up in elaborate stage costumes; our shows were always about the music and the music during that period was adventurous. It dared listeners to ride shotgun as we went around hairpin turns, whizzing past ever-changing landscapes. Some nights, I could look out from my perch on the drum riser and see the whole house rocking back and forth in unison, a giant wave of people, and those were the nights you knew it was working."[5]

A companion box set, Spring 1990 (The Other One), was released two years after Spring 1990.

Concerts

Spring 1990 contains the following complete concerts:

The album also includes excerpts from this concert:

  • March 24, 1990 – Knickerbocker Arena, Albany, New York

Two tracks from the Copps Coliseum concert were previously released on So Many Roads (1965–1995),[6] and one track from the same concert was previously released on Garcia Plays Dylan.[7] Six tracks from the March 26 Knickerbocker Arena concert were previously released on Dozin' at the Knick.[8] Three tracks from the Nassau Coliseum concert were previously released on Without a Net.[9]

The combination of the tracks from the March 24 concert at the Knickerbocker Arena with those from the same date released on Dozin' at the Knick, Postcards of the Hanging and Without a Net represent that concert in its entirety.

A concert from the day before the Capital Centre date, recorded at the same venue, was previously released as Terrapin Station (Limited Edition).

The remaining shows from the Spring 1990 tour were later released as Spring 1990 (The Other One).
