Not surprising really....they started going off the tracks around then. The earlier stuff is much better!

The guy in the shop whose judgement I normally trust recommended it to me above the early stuff that was on the shelves that day :-( Thanks for clearing that up Fergus; Which one or two would you recommend?

Speaking of singles, I've always loved See My Friends:

This is great! A triple Lp set featuring an Lp apiece of outtakes from Garcia and the Floyd. The Garcia stuff features four spellbinding guitar instrumentals and four more by the Floyd who explore the usual Floydian routes but with the notable exception of Country Song and Love Scene Version 4. Country Song features Rick on honky tonk piano and LSV4 is a languid exercise in galactic-lounge jazz performed on piano and what sounds like a vibraphone - closer to The Modern Jazz Quartet than a Saucerful Of Secrets. Proof indeed that Rick was the real deal after all :-)

Any offering to counter that one Dermot?
