OUT OF PRINT in the U.S.
DYLAN & THE DEAD is a collaborative live album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan and The Grateful Dead, released on 6th February 1989, by Columbia Records. The album consists of seven songs written and sung by Dylan, with The Grateful Dead providing accompaniment. DYLAN & THE DEAD was recorded in 1987, during a successful Stadium Tour of the same name, that featured the two artists performing separately and together. The album initially sold well and earning a Gold certification in the U.S. Quite possibly the album by either Bob Dylan or the Grateful Dead, the live DYLAN & THE DEAD completely squanders its promise. Working from an intriguing selection of songs - it includes staples like "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and more obscure gems like "Joey" - The Dead and Dylan contribute listless, meandering versions that are simply boring. Both artists have done much better, but DYLAN & THE DEAD is a sad, disheartening document. When Bob Dylan teamed up with The Grateful Dead for a tour in the late Eighties it was a terrible mismatch and out of it came the live album DYLAN & THE DEAD, widely considered among the worst album of Dylan's career.

Given their collective memories of music from before rock 'n' roll and a degree of mutual respect, something good should have come of it. But the album of seven Dylan songs was leaden. Or worse. Repeatedly Dylan would forget the words to his songs, play in the wrong key, have drunk too much... When it came to cobbling together an album from live recordings there wasn't much worth considering but, against the wishes of The Dead, Dylan willfully insisted on some songs from very inferior shows. Dylan's sounds mostly uncommitted or perfunctory, but The Dead also sound like dead weight as they lumber through most of the material elevating the doggedness. That seems to be a later realisation because if Dylan could hear at the time just how truly awful versions of his songs is then he must have been more drunk than anyone thought. Dylan shouts some lyrics but otherwise seems utterly detached, so maybe he didn't understand his songs any more. It certainly sounds that way. Against the odds however after this debacle, Dylan hauled himself up again with Oh Mercy later that year and the second Traveling Wilburys album in '90, fell of the wagon again with Under The Red Sky and then started the process of rebuilding his career, himself and deeper source material with two albums of folk and blues covers: Good As I Been To You and World Gone Wrong. Then came Time Out Of Mind in '97 which started a run of mature and quite extraordinary albums of original songs which has continued to this day. DYLAN & THE DEAD, which has a lousy cover, has been quickly reshelved at Elsewhere's place. He was so much weaker then, he's better than that now.
