Description:
Workingman's Dead and its successor American Beauty from later in 1970, are the Dead albums even non-Deadheads embrace. With these two new-decade statements, the group reigned in its demonstrative instrumental side in favour of a pithier presentation of prize tunes. The opener, "Uncle John's Band", signalled that this was a relatively streamlined Dead.

500 CDs You Must Own Before You Die! (500 music items)"Temporarily putting aside their long space jams and LSD-inspired studio games, the Dead mined Hank Williams, Robert Johnson and Buck Owens for this album full of working-class blues. Standout track: “Uncle John’s Band”"
