Released in 1977, What a Long Strange Trip It's Been is an 18-track collection of the Grateful Dead's years at Warner Bros. Records, 1967-1972, heavy on studio recordings. The album makes the same "greatest-hits" appeal as Skeletons from the Closet did in 1974, presenting more accessible, bite-sized chunks for curious newcomers to the Dead or listeners who liked a few radio singles but weren't ready to dive into the endless well of live recordings, bootlegs, and the entire culture that grew around the band. "Truckin'," "Ripple," "High Time," and a few other tunes show up from the Dead's commercial peak of mellow rootsiness on Workingman's Dead/American Beauty, and their early days of nascent psychedelia get a nod with the inclusion of tunes like "Cosmic Charlie" and "St. Stephen." Beautiful live tracks from the early '70s like "Jack Straw" and "Playin' in the Band" show up, but always in drastically truncated versions. Considering they could stretch the same song into an hourlong set in the live arena, the two-and-a-half-minute studio rendition of "Dark Star" that shows up here speaks to a decidedly different side of the band. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
