This was immediately more approachable than Live/Dead, which came down at the end of the turbulent, more determined 60's. The "skull" album fit in with 70's grooves and attitudes. An innocuous set stuffed with enough covers and assorted blues and country-isms to more than delight hardcore Dead Heads. The drum duel makes for a nice, extended intermission – if you don't like such things. At the end of the day, it's a moderately fun and sometimes mind-numbing Dead live record.
