I've just experienced the pleasure of buying/listening to three times in
a row the "Old and in the Way" album. (which was just recently reissued).
Does anyone know of any other recordings/tapes of members of the Dead
playing in this bluegrass/folk style. Tapes of concerts where they
"emphasized" these roots in their music would also be of interest. Yes,
many of their songs show the influence of bluegrass/old folk songs (i.e.,
I Know You Rider); I am looking for recordings like Old and in the Way which
were more explicit, whether the entire band or just a part of it performed.

Thanks for any help,
		Joel
