"For many years i refused to buy Grateful Dead albums because of a gentleman i worked with who insisted anything shorter than 9 minutes wasn't REAL "Dead music". As of gotten older and shaken the ghost's of dead past, i've come to open my mind to giving the Dead another go around. Let me say i'm not sorry to have done that ONE bit as this album is a bonafied classic! Great musicianship, fantastic songs and --here's the key--- no crazy 16 minute jams! (i feel the dead fans coming out of the wood-work getting ready to pelt me with rotten veggies)



If you are like me and you are unsure whether to make the plunge because of what people have said about the Dead, go forward and do yourself a favor and GRAB this album."
