5 stars, Not their best, but impossible to give the Dead anything less. Instead of going in depth on each album and describe each album in detail, i'm going to simply rate each album with how many stars I feel each album is worth based on the below criteria. I'm going to take a different approach to reviewing albums on Amazon. I hope this helps you make a better decision on purchasing this album with a simple individual rating. If it doesn't help read another review. 5 stars- Classic, Album goes beyond description, Perfect in every way, Could remind you of a certain time or place, Lifetime replay value. 4. 5 stars- Near Classic, Incredible album, Maybe only one song that is skippable or just overall doesn't quite deserve classic status. High replay value. 4. 0 stars- Awesome album. Very solid album from start to finish. Met every expectation and more. Maybe only one song or two that is skippable or just doesnt' quite deserve a classic or near classic rating. High replay value. 3. 5 stars- Above average album. Solid from start to finish but there are a few songs worth skipping. Met expectations, minimal replay value. 3. 0 stars- Average album. Nothing bad but nothing great either. After the initial appeal will collect dust. 2. 5 stars- Major disappointment. You had high expectations that were ruined as this album is not good at all. There might be only one or two songs worth listening to. No replay value. 2. 0 stars- Below average album. This album doesnt bother you to hear as background music but you would rather not listen to it if you didnt have to. No songs really appeal. No replay value. 1. 5 stars- Terrible album. Makes one sick to hear it. No songs really appeal but there might be one song that you could stand to hear. Would rather throw in garbage than even waste space in your collection. 1. 0 stars- Makes one cringe and the ears bleed! *keep in mind, each album review might not be based on opinion of the band but the album itself in the bands discography. . Classic Psychedellic Rock this album is a collage of studio effects, studio recordings, and live recordings. this album by the grateful is a classic acid rock album by far and is very different from there first album. all put together to make on retrospective cd. all the songs on here are great and demonstrate the grateful deads great jams. buy 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. ALLIGATOR. ANTHEM OF THE SUN BABY! if you like the grateful dead buy this one you will be very very satisfied i was so buy it today and you'll be glad you did!!!!!. this is a great great album, such a good psychedellic album one of my favirote psychedellic albums. I Don't Know What The Bad Reviews Are For It really is a mind changer and what I love about it is that it lacks all the things regular songs have. This is the Dead's second album, and for me my favorite. . . the songs don't even have melodies. . It's a collision of notes that makes for me the best music in the world.
