Album of the Day
SHAKEDOWN STREET
The final Grateful Dead album of the 1970s, SHAKEDOWN STREET, paired the group with another acclaimed California rocker: Little Feat's Lowell George, who co-produced the Arista collection. This would be the final Dead album to feature the husband-and-wife team of Keith and Donna Jean Godchaux; the latter sings beautifully on “France” and her own “From the Heart of Me.” From the Garcia-Hunter title track (which flirted with disco) to such future concert staples as “Fire on the Mountain” and “I Need a Miracle,” these 10 songs cover plenty of stylistic ground. SHAKEDOWN STREET shows a great band still eager to shake things up, and we'll spin it now to wish drummer Bill Kreutzmann a happy birthday.
