Free Music Notes for The Golden Road (1965 - 1973)Free Music Review: Go Piggy Go! Hit: 5 Stars
The Golden Road showcases the incredible talent of the Grateful Dead. Beginning with the Warlocks years all the way through the death of Ron "Pigpen" McKernan. You get to hear original versions of songs and some swampy blues sung by the Pig. This is what every musically talented band in USA should aspire to be.

Free Music Review: Great, But too much early stuff Hit: 4 Stars
OK. First off, This is a great box set. From Axomoxa on up to Bears Choice....near flawless (as far as GD standards go). Great bonus tracks, Great sound... Really, these sound SOOOO good. My only gripe is that the Birth of the Dead isnt really my cup of tea. The band was just getting started and it shows. I am also not a big fan of their first record, mind you so if you like that, you will love the birth of the dead. For me, I just dont ever listen to it. It is extremely dated and a bit immature. The Workingman's Dead disc notes refers to a studio verion of Mason's Children, but includes a rather out of tune live version instead... WHY? I would really like to hear more studio outakes from this period and this set would seemingly be the best place for it. Their live shows from this era are well documented elsewhere (dicks picks, europe 72 etc). So this seems like a missed opportunity. But overall, it is a really good set and well worth the money. The Dead seems to have fixed the outtake issue on Beyond Description, which in my opinion shows a much better (album)side of the band.
