I have no idea what that mean from Rollingstone... Might be a slight misprint as we already have the Rumours Classic Album DVD. And that was part of their series #1... Take a look.

the "Classic Album" series but it seems rather redundant since there was a DVD awhile back released through Rhino that is very similar to those in the "Classic Album" series (Basically just the same-old-same-old about how the album was recorded & the drama behind it.)

Oh, okay...sorry to get everyone all excited.

And kudos to Paul and Heather McCartney for their $1.9 mil tsunami donation!

$1.9 million? that's cool of them but, um.... lol... that's kind of a random number... i wonder why they chose it....

oh wait i just figured it out.... maybe in pounds it's a nice, even, round number it's about 1 mill pounds, right?

Don't worry - my train of thought exactly!

PAUL and HEATHER MCCARTNEY are donating 1 million pounds (approximately $1.9 million) to the International Rescue Committee U.K. as part of a British aid effort for victims of the tsunami.

Speaking of classic albums, I've never heard the Dead's "American Beauty" before but I hear it's a great album. Anyone here ever heard it? What do you think? I'm thinking about purchasing it.

Cool. Happy to hear about their very generous donation!

American Beauty is an excellent album-- it has most of the Grateful Dead stuff that became popular, and it's always a great album to throw on at a party cause people know and love the music. In The Dark is another great album to check out.
