Grateful Dead : The Best Of Skeletons From The Closet : 197 4 : John Van Hamersveld Cover Art ! : 1990's (1974/1990's) Warner Bros. Records, Inc. ( 2764-2 ) : " Collector's Grade ! " Mint Condition !! Grateful Dead Fans !!! The One & The-Only ... " Grateful Dead - The Best Of ' Skeletons From The Closet ' !!!!! ". A " Best Of " Grateful Dead 1974 Warner Bros. Records release so incredibly-significant to the rich History ! of The Grateful Dead ... that it is practically impossible to even pick a place to start - in describing the overall timeless significance of this massive release. And ... as the old saying goes - if Album Cover Artwork is the ' Secret ' ... then Wow ! - does this Album ever have way-more than it's fair share. Let's just say ... John Van Hamersveld - and now ... you can go check out his Art Rock accomplishments ! Highly-Highly ! Impressive ... Marlon Brando ( The Wild One ) - Cesar Romero ( The Cisco Kid ) - and ... " Both " Jesus Christ & The Devil ... as a Charles Manson like character image, perhaps ? ( I think ? ) ??? So-amazingly provocative - and beyond ultra creative. And Musically ??? Pretty " Unmatched " as far as the G.D. True-Hits go ... Truckin' ! - Sugar Magnolia ! - St. Stephen ! - Uncle John's Band ! - Casey Jones ! - Lovelight ! - One More Saturday Night ! ... & Friend Of the Devil !!! And too, just think about the actual ' timing ' of this Album release ... in 1974 - right towards the end of the Grateful Dead Dual-Golden ! Era ( 1965 - 1974 ) ... and also, right before the ' Post ' October '74 Grateful Dead " Hiatus " when the Good Ol' Grateful Dead came ( somewhat ) close to permanently " disbanding ". But, So-Thankfully ! ... that only lasted like less then a year & a half ... and, arguably even less than that - really. All things considered, it is really hard to put any other G.D. release up-there on the same shelf as " Skeletons " in regard to what it did promotion wise for the Grateful Dead in not only American, but ... all around the Rock & Roll World too ! It's actually now close now 45-Years Old ! now - and really, it never sounded any better to my ears. Heck, just for Fun ! ... I had a listen through myself when the Grateful Dead Celebrated their " 50-Year " Anniversary ( GD 50 ! ) - just a few years back. And Wow !!?!! -- All ! of the Memories !! that this-one brings back. Beyond-Incredible !!! ... Enjoy !!!!!
