Grateful Dead back to
..o
Review by
Tim Sindelar
The Grateful Dead is a band
that has gone through the
changes. The original
psychedelic band, brought to
fame with the aid of Ken
Kesey's acid tests, they set the
scene for many lesser bands to
follow.
The Dead have put down
some of the most complex and
unusual music ever released.
And then, recently, there was a
mellowing out, and two
different albums were
released- Workingman's Dead
and A merican Beauty.
The incredible harmony and
sheer niceness of the
country-ish songs on these
albums pleased many a long
hair's ear. And now, we have a
new album to wear out, titled
simply Grateful Dead.
This is a two-album
compilation of some of the
highlights of live performances,
with all the material being new
or new versions of older songs
(there's no repetition as with
many live albums- in other
words, you won't be bored
with the live versions of songs
you've already tired.)
As it stands, it's somewhere
between the old psychedelic
Dead and the mellowed out
Dead, the result being very
pleasant.
The Dead have always stood
out as playing the nicest,
smoothest rock 4n' roll around
("Love Light" on the Live
Dead album for example). On
this album, we're presented
with a number of old rock nj
roll tunes-" Big Boss Man"
(remember Elvis Presley),
"Johnny B. Goode" and "Not
Fade Away" (Buddy Holly
through the Rolling Stones).
The Dead is about the only
band I know that doesn't try
and assult your ear drums-even
during rock n' roll and drum
solos.
For you country
fans-there's "Mama Tried," a
Merle Haggard tune, and "Me
and My Uncle," a cowboy song
I could hear 50 times a day and
still like. All the songs are done
with an uicreaioie sense ui
perfection.
The cut that re-establishes
the other side of the Dead is
"The Other One," an 18 minute
tract that takes up Side 2. This
opens up with a drum solo by

Kreutzmann shines throughout
the album, and must be one ot
rock's most consistent
performers. .
The best cut, though, is one
that is most fraught with peril.
