The 1970 line up of The Grateful Dead.

Six months ago, if you told me that I’d be a Dead fan on any level, I’d have thought you were crazy, but a friend of mine suggested that I might like their American Beauty album. I was skeptical, but once I found a used copy of the LP for $5.00, I really had no excuse to not check it out. Turns out he was right, I love it and it’s been in heavy rotation. I hope to get their other 1970 album, Workingman’s Dead, soon. I just hope that it’s good.

The cover of the French edition of the Zabriskie Point Soundtrack (1970) sure beats the American version.

Above is a photo that I found on ebay of the American version—the image is slightly cropped on the left but it’s more or less intact. I have a copy of this album that I bought at a yard sale that’s in terrible condition—or at least the sleeve is. It looks like it was rescued from a fire only to be thrown into a flood. Here’s a glimpse of the back of mine with its “The Pink Floyd” tracklisting.
