Grateful Dead : Fire On the Mountain
On November 15, 1978 The Grateful Dead released Shakedown Street, an album described by critics as the band at its nadir. Produced by Lowell George, the album's title cut is a slippery attempt at Bee Gees style disco. Drummer Mickey Hart liked the sound. Shakedown Street is rescued from the trash bin by "Fire On the Mountain", a live Dead mainstay based on 1976's "Happiness is Drumming" from Mickey Hart's side hustle, the Diga Rhythm Band.
