Rolling Stones And Grateful Dead: Stoking The Eternal Flame

Read "Rolling Stones And Grateful Dead: Stoking The Eternal Flame" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Notwithstanding the almost clockwork regularity of archival releases (with and without bonus material), upon quick reflection, the Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead would not appear to have much in common. But some concentrated contemplation reveals how many traits these bands actually share and that's even apart from their remarkable longevity. With sixty-plus years and counting ...
