 New Riders of the Purple Sage
Submitted on: 2008-12-17 |
|
| This is their wonderful first album that brings back sweet memories of my youth. Excellent songs with the bonus of some fine steel guitar playing by Jerry Garcia. |

Get this c.d. if you like the country side of the Byrds or the Dead
Submitted on: 2008-08-14 |

| There is really nothing more that can be added to the reviews below except one thing: anyone who appreciates the original alt-country of Dylan, the Dead, Poco, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, the original Pure Praire League, Neil Young or Gram Parsons must buy this c.d. immediately. |

So I've been getting into Ryan Adams lately. It doesn't take long to find out that Adams stands in the great shadow of Gram Parsons, who in his day paved the way for people like the New Riders.
The New Riders, for their part, consisted of Grateful Dead alumni (read: Jerry Garcia) and Dead proteges. The New Riders toured fairly extensively with the Dead as their opening band.
This album recalls nothing so much as the Dead's "American Beauty". There's a couple of duds, but when they let loose on the wah wah pedals while riffing on country music, the going gets weird, and the weird get going....or something like that.
If you're into Lucinda, Ryan Adams, Wilco, or any of the so called alt country bands, you need to get back to the source. Start right here. |

Garden of Eden
Submitted on: 2006-01-11 |

| For all you Deadheads - this is country Dead ! But it is much more. This was a great live Band (without Garcia) and many songs on this album were the keys to their live performance. And none of the reviews mentioned Garden of Eden which to me is an outstanidn song, particularly if you have heard or have a live version. If I were going to buy only one NRPS "album" , this would be it. |
