The Grateful Dead is an American rock band formed in 1965 in Palo Alto, California. The band was known for its unique and eclectic style, which fused elements of rock, folk, bluegrass, blues, reggae, country, improvisational jazz, psychedelia, and space rock, and for live performances of long musical improvisation. "Their music," writes Lenny Kaye, "touches on ground that most other groups don't even know exists." These various influences were distilled into a diverse and psychedelic whole that made the Grateful Dead "the pioneering Godfathers of the jam band world". They were ranked 57th in the issue The Greatest Artists of all Time by Rolling Stone magazine.

"The Best of the Grateful Dead" released in the spring of 2015, just before a series of farewell shows in the summer, takes advantage of the extra disc 2003's The Very Best of Grateful Dead lacked. Weighing in at 32 tracks, a full 16 cuts longer than Very Best, The "Best of the Grateful Dead" also follows a strict chronological sequence, so it takes a little while for the psychedelic haze to lift and the Dead to settle into the rangy, rootsy groove that characterized so much of their existence, right around "St. Stephen" and "China Cat Sunflower," both from 1969's Aoxomoxoa. From there, many, but by no means all, of the group's warhorses are marched out, all in their studio incarnations.
