American Beauty album for sale Product Description
American Beauty album for sale by Grateful Dead was released Mar 06, 2007 on the Rhino (Label) label. AMERICAN BEAUTY was an instant classic when it was first released November of 1970. American Beauty CD music It is among the most satisfying and enduring of the Grateful Dead's studio recordings, expanding as it does on the engaging mix of country, blues, and folk materials they first coined earlier in the year with WORKINGMAN'S DEAD. The musical vision of the Dead is more sharply focused on AMERICAN BEAUTY--from the serene reflection and compassion of the opening "Box Of Rain" and the earthy mysticism of "Ripple," to the sensual rock of "Sugar Magnolia" and the anthemic proto-boogie of the closing "Truckin'." But then, every tune on AMERICAN BEAUTY has attained a classic resonance, both from decades of steady airplay, and the way the Dead seemed to continually revive these popular standards for their concert repertoire. ...See Full Description

 | great cd and wonderful cover album A nice country west coast album..one of best grateful dead work By ianniello.eboq (castelforte,lt,italy)  |
| Entry Level Dead 2 vinyls, 3 cassettes, and the third CD, it was my first Dead album and my favorite, along with my favorite live album, One From the Vault. This album has great selections that hang together and some of their best harmonies. By a reviewer (South Pasadena, CA) This review is for a different format. |
| American Beauty This album is American beauty and nothing else. By willruddock (Half Moon Bay, CA, USA) This review is for a different format. |
| An American Classic!!! Despite the fact that this album, coupled with "Workingman's Dead" are the two most commercially accessible albums by the Dead, this is a must for any fan of the Dead, classic rock, folk rock, or even the roots-rock movement of today. With quasi-bluegrass ("Friend of the Devil")mixed with a twinge of folk ("Ripple"), sentimental ballads ("Brokedown Palace"), and introspective rock ("Box of Rain", "Operator"), this album is a true statement of the times and the freedomm inherent in the American experience. A great listen on a road trip. By sobota (Naperville, IL) This review is for a different format. |
| "American Beauty"/American Classic Loved this album when it first came out; love it still. It is the quintessential Dead. This album exemplifies the Dead "sound" and their great lyrics, which get stuck in your head and makes you want to play the CD over and over and over.... By lwisewideman (Bradley. SC USA)  This review is for a different format. |
