The Grateful Dead truly shine as a live band, but that doesn't mean they can't make a killer studio album, and this is one of their best. A lot of live staples on this album.

The Dead invade Laurel Canyon. And it was good.

I can never decide between this and its sister, American Beauty,for best studio Dead.
