5.0 out of 5 stars If psyco-country Dead rock is your bag- get this album, August 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: New Riders of the Purple Sage (Audio CD)

There is no other band that created lyrics and melodies such that the NRPS did. Often humorous and twinge of psycodelic cowboyism, the tunes a are a blast to listen too. Jerry Garcia played pedal steel guitar in most of the songs and it added a flavor not found in any other recordings. This album is my favorite of the bunch.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great album and also an awesome reflection of the 70's!, June 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: New Riders of the Purple Sage (Audio CD)

The first time I heard it was when I was 11,my dad had an old LP and I loved it.Agreat addition to any collection if you like Grateful Dead type country-rock. The song Henry is a great reflection of early 70's marijauna laced lifestyle,and Glendale Train tells a wonderful story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A MUST FOR CLASSIC ROCK FANS., August 22, 1998

THIS CD IS A FINE EXAMPLE OF ROCK AND LIFE STYLES OF THE EARLY 1970'S. HENRY IS A FUN LOOK AT DRUG SMUGGLING OUT OF MEXICO BY SOME GUYS WHO WERE MORE INTEREST IN SAMPLING. GLENDALE TRAIN HAS A GREAT STORY SET TO GOOD MUSIC. EVERY SONG HERE HAS A COUNTRY INFLUENCE WITH THE LAID BACK STYLE OF THE 70'S. THOUGH NOT REAL OBVIOUS JERRY GARCIA'S INFLUENCE IN UNDENIABLE. TRY THE SONGS AMAZON HAS SET UP TO PREVIEW, YOU'LL SEE.
