Contents

Fall 1989: The Long Island Sound contains two complete concerts. At each of these shows, Bob Weir and Rob Wasserman played a set of acoustic music, followed by two sets by the Jerry Garcia Band, a rock group led by Jerry Garcia. At the time, Weir and Garcia were the guitarists for the Grateful Dead. Each of the discs of the album corresponds to one of the sets from the concerts.

Critical reception

On AllMusic, Tom Jurek said, "Taken together [the two concerts] provide irrefutable evidence of what fans already knew: that the JGB's flowering musical evolution peaked about this time, with the guitarist playing better than he had in years inside and outside the Grateful Dead.... The Garcia Band sets... are positively electric, crackling with energy and an obvious awareness among all players that what is transpiring is special.... The sound throughout is thoroughly remastered from soundboard tapes and is crystalline."
