This eleven-song debut EP shows the promise that Grateful Dead has. While no new Grateful Dead album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1970 tour in South America. Grateful Dead had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Another great offering from Grateful Dead.
No Grateful Dead song has come close to capturing my attention as Friend Of The Devil did. Sugar Magnolia is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Grateful Dead sings Operator in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. The beautiful sound of this track makes you want to close your eyes and sway away with the music. Ripple is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. Brokedown Palace make listening to Grateful Dead like being in some sort of time warp. Musically Till The Morning Comes is superior to other tracks in American Beauty. Attics Of My Life motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. Truckin very upbeat.
