>[Regarding "Terrapin Station"] >Odd that you picked the ONE Dead album on which they actually made some serious >music of substance, which most Deadheads I know despise for being so undead. You are obviously not familiar with some of the earlier Dead albums. "Anthem of the Sun", "Aoxomoxoa", and "Live Dead" immediately come to mind. "Workingman's Dead", "American Beauty", and "Reckoning" also contain some rather good folk and bluegrass Dead. Perhaps you can explain exactly what you believe "serious music of substance" is, and why these and other Dead albums don't qualify? I don't know any of your Deadhead acquaintances, but I have never met a Deadhead who despises "Terrapin Station" or any other Dead album, for that matter. Deadheads usually aren't negative people, and they don't usually "despise" things like albums. You have also overlooked one other thing. There is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert. > Rich Rosen ihnp4!pyuxd!rlr It figures. -- "You ain't gonna learn what you don't want to know" Seth Jackson
