Fillmore East: April 1971
: :This four-disc set documents the Dead's monumental five-night final run at New York's Fillmore East in April 1971. Coming from the same period as the live Skull and Roses album, it finds the band at its most sinewy--without second drummer Mickey Hart and without much in the way of Pigpen's keyboard work.

In addition to the plethora of newer originals, we hear a number ...

Clash on Broadway
: :They were one the Only Band That Matters! Of course, that was when punk rock had to raise a ruckus to get noticed and restless youth turned to pop stars for political perspective. In retrospect, Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon, and Topper Headon (the latter occasionally supplanted at the drum kit by Terry Chimes) didn't have all the answers. But they posed apt questions and had the grand sense of scale that their punk pathfinder rivals lacked--save accidental nihilists the Sex Pistols. Clash on ...
