The Very Best Of Grateful Dead squeezes a famously sprawling band onto a single remastered CD, a 17-song introduction to the Dead's songwriting that works equally well as a primer and a road-trip companion.
First assembled in 2003, the collection skips the marathon jams and focuses on the songs, and it turns out the Dead wrote a great many good ones. The tracks run from the psychedelic sunshine of their 1967 debut through the country-rock high point of 1970 to the late-career surprise of a genuine radio hit in the 1980s.
"Truckin'" and "Casey Jones" ride on Jerry Garcia's bright, curling guitar lines and Robert Hunter's wry, rambling lyrics, while "Ripple" and "Box Of Rain" showcase the gentle harmony singing that made Workingman's Dead and American Beauty so loved. "Eyes Of The World" and "Franklin's Tower" capture the looser, groove-driven side of the band in miniature.
Then there is "Touch Of Grey", the 1987 single that brought the band an unexpected new wave of fans with its singalong promise that they would get by and survive.
Deadheads will argue about what was left out, as they always do, but as a front door to the band's catalogue this compilation is hard to beat. It moves easily between eras and moods, and leaves plenty of reasons to dig into the albums.
