The Dead release their 4th album on June 14, 1970. It come at a time when some decisions needed to be made -- the band was dealing with some heavy debt and the 70's music landscape was changing by the minute. They traded their trippy, sonic stuff for some acoustic-driven folk and country rock -- and hit it out of the park. Even the album cover -- that iconic shot of San Francisco's Mission District captured the blue collar vibe. It's #409 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and is a must (along with its companion, American Beauty) in any collection.
