Biography

For most of the early '70s, the New Riders of the Purple Sage™ (yes, the name is trademark-protected) were the successful offshoots of the Grateful Dead. Although they never remotely approached the success or longevity of the Dead, they attracted a considerable audience through their association with Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, and Mickey Hart, whose fans couldn't be satisfied with only the Dead's… Read more in Amazon's New Riders of the Purple Sage Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of covers but lots of fun!, July 20, 1999
By A Customer
Allthough this is an album of covers I still rate it fine.The NRPS were listening to and playing these great tunes when a lot of folks were too cool to admit they liked "She Looks Better Every Beer" or "Fifteen Days Under..." or other tunes Now its called alterna-country or no-depression or something.Anyway, if you like good music this is it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Fun, January 1, 2004
By Keith Gorgas (Saranac Lake, NY United States) - See all my reviews
One of the best all around works by the kings of Country Rock, this CD is the New Riders of the Purple Sage at their musical pinnacle. Early bassist David Torbert had left the band to form Kingfish with Bob Weir and Matthew Kelly, and former Byrd and soon to be Flying Burrito Brother Skip Battin had taken his place. Most of the songs on this CD are covers and they are done wonderfully. David Nelson does a rousing job on Jack Tempchin's "15 Days Under the Hood" and his cover of the Rolling Stones' "Dead Flowers" remained the NRPS' signature encore throughout their long history. Buddy Cage's screaming pedal steel made their rendition much better than the Stones's. Nelson also shines on Otis Redding's "Hard To Handle",and again his guitar interplay with Cage's steal lines are fascinating. John Dawson does a nice job with the songs he sings on this disc, including "Annie Mae" and Louden Wainwright lll's humorous "Swimming Song". And who can ever forget Skip Battin's classic "She's Looking Better Every Beer"? You'll never get bored listening to this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Covers But GREAT, May 6, 2003
By paul stockland (minneapolis) - See all my reviews
I think this is a very good CD. There are only two songs that I do not care for. I think 15 days under the hood, Swimming song and She gets better looking are 3 of their best recordings other than 4 or 5 songs from Oh what a mighty time (which should be put out on Cd) and everything on Panama Red. I have almost all their albums and I rate this the third best next to the two fore-mention albums. Buy it you will not be mad.
