I agree about the album - and I'm definitely no Dead fan. Burning Spear's take on "Estimated Phophet" is great. Absolutely nothing like the original (that's a good thing). |

This album is great. Lyle's version of this is good but the Jane's Addiction cover of Ripple is one of my favourite covers of all time.

It was a real highlight from that record (or cassette in my case). I guess I need to learn about this upload feature. I have tons of stuff I could share. I also agree w/the Jane's Addiction comment. Great cover. |

Not generally against covers, but I reckon he could have left this one to Jerry
