About Europe '72
Amazon.com This sprawling three-records-on-two-CDs set offers a healthy cross-section of material and finds the band honing even further its blend of musical languages. There are country-inflected boogies, blues rave-ups, passionate ballads, and, of course, the extended, adventurous jams that made them famous. Many of the Dead's best-loved tunes made their initial vinyl appearances here, including "He's Gone," "Jack Straw," "Brown-Eyed Women," "Ramble on Rose," and "Tennessee Jed"--most of which reveal a heavy country influence, especially in Robert Hunter's lyrics. In addition to introducing these new songs, Europe '72 also showcases brilliantly fine-tuned versions of "Truckin'" (complete with a lengthy "Epilogue") and "China Cat Sunflower/I Know You Rider," which became the first of the band's many magical song combinations. --Marc Greilsamer Product Description EUROPE '72 contains 7 additional tracks, including a 30-minute Pigpen-led jam with "Good Lovin'" as the anchor, contrasted with a lilting "Looks Like Rain" (featuring some of Jerry Garcia's last-ever pedal steel guitar-playing with the Grateful Dead), and in its official debut, the long-sought-after performance of "The Stranger (Two Souls In Communion)."
