	Grateful Dead (album) at AllExperts
		Grateful Dead is an eponymous live double album by the Grateful Dead, released in 1971.
		Also known as Skull & Roses (due to its iconic cover art) and Skullfuck (the name the band originally wanted to give to the album, which was rejected by the record company), this album should not be confused with the band's first studio album, 1967's The Grateful Dead.
		The album's cover art is taken from an illustration in an old edition of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.

	Review \| The Grateful Dead
		While some hard-core fans object (arguing that, with the Grateful Dead's generous taping and trading policies, much of this material can be had for free, rather than lining the pockets of the corporation), it's a positive boon for those new to the band's music, or those lacking the time for tape trading.
		The Grateful Dead were always audio innovators, and the improved sound quality of these remasters is almost reason enough to replace the previous cd issues (despite the set's hefty price tag).
		The album begins with its high point, a medley of "Banks of Lough Gowna" and "The Reunion" leading into a spirited version of "Friend of the Devil." That basic format is repeated through the album, to something of a diminishing effect.

	Grateful Dead, Jerry Dies
		Grateful Dead founder Jerry Garcia, the enduring musical guru for legions of loyal fans over four decades, died early Wednesday morning, just a week after his 53rd birthday.
		Grateful Dead spokesman Dennis McNally said the surviving band members were "all in shock." They declined to give interviews.
		To those who were not fans, the attraction of a Grateful Dead show was a mystery, but to those who were it was a near-religious event.

	Rockument's History of the Grateful Dead (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Earlier in their career, the Dead's crew and other Pranksters shared immense quantities of pot and LSD with the audience, forming a psychedelic bond that acted as a level playing field, in which the band are just part of the same community of people, just having a good time.
		By the Eighties, the Dead were a solid touring organization playing excellent music that spanned their entire career, restoring that sense of community, and looking and acting very much the same as they always had, which was somewhat of a relief to the audience that had followed them for so long.

	Grateful Dead Album Reviews
		Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter recalls that he couldn’t believe his good fortune at the group’s musical transition in 1969.
		For most Dead fans, their defining Moment came at a live show, a bootleg, or one of the eight live officially released live albums.
		The Dead’s first album was cut in two days, and sounded nothing like they ever would again; the second and third albums found the Dead assaulting the studio on their own terms, and failing, earning them little but massive debt.

		I love Mickey Hart and his contributions not only to the Dead, but to percussion in general, but to my ears,the single drum set on this recording lends a simplicity and purity that is seldom evident on Dead outings with the full double drum set-up.
		The Dead were surrounded by technical people who loved the music and found a way to give it life on vinyl (and digital media).
		This is good Dead, and the absence of feedback and excessive road crud doesn't detract from the authenticity of the sound at all.

	Rolling Stone : The Grateful Dead : Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		But if nothing else, Grateful Dead does make me a bit nostalgic for them golden days of yore, when not much of anything could be predicted from the group except that they would inevitably try through the course of each performance to take you some place you'd never been before.
		It can't quite be called bad, since it's pretty clear that the Dead have progressed so far beyond your average garage band that there's no danger of them ever slipping back, but it still can provide a bit of a letdown for those who have come to expect only great things from the grate.
		It pains me to say this about a drummer who blissfully shines throughout the rest of the album, playing what amounts to perfect supportive percussion despite any quick changes that are going down in the rest of the group, but given his solo group of minutes, he don't cut it here at all.

	Steppin' Out with the Grateful Dead: England '72 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Grateful Dead's 1972 tour of Europe has long been thought of one of the great jewels in the crown of the band's three-decade performing career.
		The Dead had given a few isolated performances in England and France in previous years, but this lengthy and ambitious sojourn was their first full-fledged European tour, and they took the UK and the Continent by storm.
		The trip was immortalized on one of the Dead's best-loved live albums, a three-LP set that had briefly carried the working title Steppin' Out (to go with Alton Kelley and Stanley Mouse's famous cover image of a foot, emerging from under a rainbow and striding across the globe).

		The band had wanted to record the album in their hometown of San Francisco, but no good recording studios existed in the area at the time.
		This album should not be confused with the similarly titled Grateful Dead (a.k.a Skull and Roses and Skullfuck), a live album released in 1971.

	Stolen Roses: Songs of the Grateful Dead (Album Review)
		Asking folks to define the Grateful Dead's sound is apt to generate a wide range of responses.
		His universally accessible poetry added a deeply personal nature to the Grateful Dead's songs, yet his expressions were cryptic enough that the door could be left open for interpretation.
		The Grateful Dead have often been short-changed in the mainstream media, a fact that sadly reversed itself only after the passing of Jerry Garcia.

		At this time The Grateful Dead were already the house band at author Ken Kesey's Acid Tests, which were public LSD parties (this was prior to the drug's criminalization).
		The Grateful Dead became popular on the strength of their live performances and improvisations, and after trying to capture the feeling of those performances on two more records, they released a live album Live/Dead in 1969.
		The two albums contained some of The Grateful Dead's most popular songs - "Uncle John's Band," "Casey Jones," "Sugar Magnolia" and "Truckin'", and were heavily drawn from in their concerts for years to come.

		The album prominently features Garcia's pedal steel playing--there is not a single Garcia guitar solo to be found anywhere!--and friend David Grisman adds mandolin on "Friend of the Devil" and "Ripple." Songs like "Sugar Magnolia," "Friend of the Devil" and "Truckin'" became permanent fixtures in their live shows.
		As many people have already stated this album is one of the best if not the best Grateful Dead studio albums recorded, containing the perfect mix of rock blues and country.
		This album has influenced so many other artists like Ryan Adams, his album cover for Cold Roses is a copy of this American Beauty's art and the music is a reflection of the Dead.

	Rolling Stone : Skeleton Of New Dead Album Discovered
		According to Welnick, the album was set to include "Liberty," "So Many Roads," "Days Between," "Samba in the Rain," "Way To Go," "Corrina" and "Easy Answers," but Garcia passed away before the tracks could be completed.
		Although the studio tapes from the Grateful Dead's would-be swan song are still around, Welnick doubts that the album can be salvaged.
		Grateful Dead percussionist Bill Kreutzman declined an invitation to join the group, saying he did not want to go back out on the road, but Welnick speculates that Kreutzman might take that time to tour with his new band, Backbone.

	History of the Grateful Dead, Vol. 1 (Bear's Choice) - Grateful Dead, Music Downloads - Online
		Review: This 1973 release was the very last collection that the Grateful Dead authorized during their tenure with Warner Bros. in the late '60s and early '70s.
		However, this live disc was a sort of melancholy affair, as it centered on material featuring Ron "Pigpen" McKernan (guitar/vocals/mouth harp), who had left the band due to illness in June of the previous year.
		While most assuredly not the finest example of the Dead's formidable acoustic sets, the platter opens with a quartet of cover tunes -- many of which had been entries in Jerry Garcia (guitar/vocals) and McKernan's folky jug band repertoire prior to ultimately forming the electric, psychedelic Grateful Dead.

		The Grateful Dead's eponymously titled debut long-player was issued in mid-March of 1967.
		So, while this studio recording ultimately fails in accurately exhibiting the Grateful Dead's tremendous range, it's a valiant attempt to corral the group's hydra-headed psychedelic jug-band music on vinyl.
		Rather than prepare all new material for the recording sessions, a vast majority of the disc is comprised of titles that the band had worked into their concurrent performance repertoire.

		Just why he is the catalyst I'm not quite sure, but when he's adding cowbells, triangles, chimes, bells or a second set of drums, everyone seems to wake up, and Garcia, Lesh, Weir, Kreutzmann and Godchaux romp through side one with neat time changes and interesting jams.
		First UA distributed set for the legendary band is a mix of shorter, more commercial material than the group has done in the past and the long, rambling yet coherent sort of thing we are used to hearing from them.
		is another Grateful Dead album containing a few band classics and a lot of filler.

	Aoxomoxoa (Remastered) - Grateful Dead, Music Downloads - Online
		Review: The Grateful Dead's third studio effort was also the first that the band did without any Warner Bros. staff producers or engineers hampering their creative lifestyle and subsequent processes.
		This was primarily the net result of the budding relationship between primary (by default) melodic contributor Jerry Garcia (guitar/vocals) and Robert Hunter (lyrics), who began his nearly 30-year association with the Grateful Dead in earnest during these sessions.
		When the LP hit the racks in the early summer of 1969, Deadheads were greeted by some of the freshest and most innovative sounds to develop from the thriving Bay Area music scene.
