Moderators Red Ant Posted March 10, 2020 Moderators Share Posted March 10, 2020 😢 While mainly known for producing multi-platinum blockbusters, he also produced the only coherent (and coherent-sounding) studio album in the entire Grateful Dead catalog.

I saw them live in the late 70's and they were just okay to me. Yes, they had some good songs but I never liked their execution. Just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AB and WD are great collections of songs, but not particularly coherent albums. I can't speak for ITD, as I can't stand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
