Blues for Allah is the Grateful Dead at their most adventurous in the studio, and this CD edition revisits the 1975 album that turned a break from touring into a creative burst.
With the band taking time off the road, they gathered at Bob Weir's home studio and built the record from the ground up, writing and arranging together in a way they rarely had before. The result is intricate, jazzy and full of surprising turns, with odd time signatures and exotic scales sitting comfortably alongside their warm, rootsy melodies.
The album opens with its crown jewel: the suite of Help On the Way and Slipknot! leading into Franklin's Tower. Help On the Way is tricky and urgent, Slipknot! is a knotty instrumental maze, and Franklin's Tower releases all that tension into a joyous, rolling groove that became one of the band's great live celebrations. The Music Never Stopped is a bright, funky ode to the power of music, while Crazy Fingers floats on a gentle, reggae-tinged sway.
The closing title piece ventures far further out, a long, desert-hued meditation that shows how willing they were to experiment.
Beloved by fans and a gateway for many, this record captures a band in full creative bloom, as restless as it was relaxed.
