(1981)"Go to Heaven" is the eleventh
studio album by theGrateful Dead . It was released on April 28, 1980.The album was released for the first time on
CD in 1990 byArista Records before being re-released in 2000 by BMG International. It was then remastered, expanded, and released as part of the "Beyond Description (1973-1989) " box set in October 2004. The remasted version was later released separately on CD on April 11, 2006 byRhino Records .It was the band's first album with newcomer keyboard player
Brent Mydland replacing bothDonna Jean Godchaux 's backup vocals andKeith Godchaux 's piano playing. Much reason for the album's mixed critical review could by rooted towards the bands transition from Godchaux's jazzy piano playing to Mydland'sHammond B3 organ and use of keyboard effects.The song Alabama Getaway is a playable track for the game
