The Grateful Dead’s first album is an eclectic mixture of cover songs and two originals. Much of the material were staples of the band throughout their 30 year career such as, “Beat It On Down The Line,” “Cold Rain and Snow,” “Minglewood Blues,” and the epic “Morning Dew.” Most of the songs were reworked into better renditions later in their career. Easily the best song from the Grateful Dead’s self titled album is the cover version of Lewis’ “Viola Lee Blues.”
