The album was recorded in 1986 and featured eight original songs, including the hit singles "Touch of Grey" and "Hell in a Bucket." The Grateful Dead had been a popular touring band for over two decades before the release of "In the Dark." However, the album marked a turning point for the band as it brought them mainstream commercial success. "Touch of Grey" became the Grateful Dead's only top 40 hit, peaking at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The album was well-received by both critics and fans and was certified double platinum in the United States. The success of "In the Dark" led to a resurgence of interest in the Grateful Dead and helped to introduce the band to a new generation of fans.
