Description

Grateful Dead – Shakedown Street
A smooth, funky detour from the band that defined free-form rock. Shakedown Street (1978) finds the Grateful Dead sliding into disco-tinted grooves, soulful rhythms, and sun-soaked California vibes — a bold left turn that’s become a cult favourite. With gems like the title track “Shakedown Street,” the tender “Fire on the Mountain,” and the gorgeous ballad “If I Had the World to Give,” it’s a warm, laid-back record that rewards repeat spins. Jerry Garcia’s touch is sweet, the grooves are deep, and the feel is pure Dead spirit at play. Clean vinyl, mellow magic — a must for Deadheads and collectors chasing that funky side-trip in Dead history.
