Attention Dead Heads
This remastered cd has the full length versions of many of the Dead's first songs!.


Grateful Dead, 1967
And is another one of those classic 1967 albums. A great debut album. The Grateful Dead were one of the first acid rock bands of all time. Some key tracks on here are, golden road, cream puff war, viola lee blues etc. All in all a great album and you should buy it today.


Love it
I've always liked their studio-produced stuff, much to the chagrin of some more serious aficionados. This purchase was to replace an old, long-lost copy. Every once in a while it's nice to hear a nice crisp rendition than to have to pore over tons of bootlegs to find just the one. If this doesn't plant you squarely back on the Haight, at least mentally, then nothing will.


This album is finally rendered extremely listenable!
In fact I was somewhat despised by some due to my love of Iggy and the Stooges. I was never a Deadhead. I had much fun turning deadheads on to "Raw Power" at parties and watching their extreme reactions-(incredible how mad some would become-it wasn't all Peace and Love back then)-oh those High School Days! Anyway,I always had a soft spot for "Morning Dew" and "New,New Minglewood Blues" on this album but I always found the horrible LP sound to be unlistenable. I tried the original CD release and it sounded just as bad. So I got this remastered version and I love it. The sound is great and the bonus tracks like "Alice D. Millionaire" and others are incredible. I myself is for the most part a sixties music maniac nowadays with all the excellent releases in that genre and now this one can join the other fantastic garage rock and Psychedelia remasters,finally!.


There Best was right from the Start !!!
So that being said you know where I am coming from. I am a big fan of Psychedelic Music of the late 60s. I am also not a country / folk fan. I'm a Rock & Roll Fan. So that being said I love the Dead from 1965 to 1969 and after that its hit and or miss.
I like some of there later songs and some of there live jams.
This is an Awesome !!! CD if you are into 60s Psych music.
I consider this the Deads best Album right with Aoxomoxoa then Anthem of the Sun then Live Dead in that order there best four Albums.
My reaction to Workingman's Dead and American Beauty (Both great Albums if you like that type of music) is this a Rock band? Where are the electric Guitars?
Sorry I love the Deads early Rock Music.
