Although New Riders of the Purple Sage were originally conceived as a side project for Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, and Mickey Hart of the Grateful Dead, the group quickly turned into one of the most long-lasting country-rock bands of the 1970s under the leadership of singer/songwriter John Dawson. The 15-track anthology The Best of New Riders of the Purple Sage collects 10 tracks from the band's 1971-1975 heyday, including their signature tune "Panama Red," and adds five rare live tracks and alternate versions.
