Title: Ethan - SC
Review: The best thing about this collection is the packaging, otherwise I find very little to recommend it. Yes, Pigpen is all over the place and proves once and for all that he was truly the heart of the original Dead. Still, even as a huge fan of this period in the Dead's history, I find this title to be bloated and flat. 'At Fillmore East 2/11/69' is vastly superior despite the short sets. And is there any better 'Hard to Handle' than on 'Fallout From The Phil Zone'? And honestly, doesn't every other commercially available collection from '71 just kill? I love the Dead, I love the songs here, but this is just one pot that refuses to boil. Maybe it's the mix. One things for sure, the Dead always rose above when playing NYC but this time around they sound either tired or burned out or just plain lazy. For completists only.
