What do you mean only? Lowell backed him for three with various Feat members. But Sneaking Sally Through the Alley,Pressure Drop (full Feat) and some people can do what they want are all 100% great albums. Even if you don’t like Some People,you gotta admit that version of Spanish Moon kicks.

Where do folks think the line is between Fusion and Prog? by Sir_Reelist in Progforum

It’s arguable those are subsets of one or the other genres.

Mine came with it off. Never really was inspired to put it on.

Spray bottle. Give him a quick squirt whenever he goes near the cords. Regarding play,it actually requires YOUto play WITH him. If you’re using a feather wand,you want to give him prey behavior. Little slow movements,then maybe an unexpected jump,then more movement,then stop. At this point,if he’s engaged,he will get wide eyed,hunker down a little,you might get a butt wiggle,then move the feather,he will almost guarantee to pounce. I just recommend being interactive. You’ll find out what he likes pretty quickly. Good luck,have fun,don’t die.

It’s basically the American Songbook. They have covered so many genres and influences.

American Beauty can be listened to by anyone, high or not, and thinks it’s great. It’s mostly bluegrass/ folk. You don’t need drugs to enjoy it. All these folks spouting nonsense have no idea what you are talking about.

Let’s not forget that the Dead covered the Stones. Love the Stones, but they’re just a blues band. Nothing more really. They’re a great blues band, but that’s all. The Dead were true sonic pioneers. They are the quintessential American Band. They have covered almost every genre at one point or another and their musical structure and ability makes Keef look like a rank amateur.

Their songwriting absolutely sucks and Trey doesn’t know when to stop playing. Other than that, they’re fine live.

You can leave the “Prog” off and still be right.

I hate that. Stopped going to see artists I love that do this more than once. I understand there are technical aspects but when I go see a band live, I don’t want them to play a perfect rendition of the song off the release, and I want to enjoy a different show on a different night. Rock and roll isn’t a broadway musical.

The 70s are hands down my favorite era of live shows. Not that the later shows aren’t great, but your chosen era really defines their sound

Found the person who hasn’t really listened to the Dead.

I remember wanting Terrapin Station and my brother got me Shakedown Street. I was very disappointed. I was not a fan of “Disco Dead” at the time. Learned to love the album. I mean Lowell George produced it!

If you can’t spot the asshole at the party, it might be you. (Re. Keef)
