Skeleton’s From The Closet
Released
February, 1974
Skeletons from the Closet: The Best of Grateful Dead is the first compilation album from rock band the Grateful Dead. It was originally released in February 1974. As with other such packages, the album was a way for Warner Bros. Records to capitalize on the Dead’s back catalog, after the band had left the label. It was followed three years later by a second compilation, What a Long Strange Trip It’s Been.
Certified triple platinum in the United States by the RIAA, Skeletons from the Closet remains the Grateful Dead’s best-selling album, as of 2018.
