Grateful Dead is a live album by rock band the Grateful Dead. Released on September 24, 1971[3] on Warner Bros. Records, it is their second livedouble album and their seventh album overall. Although published without a title, it is generally known by the names Skull and Roses (due to its iconic cover art) and Skull Fuck (the name the band originally wanted to give to the album, which was rejected by the record company). It was the group's first album to be certified gold by the RIAA[4] and remained their best seller until surpassed by Skeletons from the Closet.
