Blair Jackson's review: *****
copyright: www.blairjackson.comm

 

A flawless studio album with no weak cuts and at least three acknowledged classics: "Uncle John's Band," "Casey Jones" and "Cumberland Blues." Mostly it's country-flavored folk and rock, quite a departure from their previous release, Live Dead. The most jammed-out tune here is "Easy Wind," sung by Pigpen. This album and American Beauty are many Deadheads' favorite studio albums. Essential.
