The interplay between Weir and lead guitarist Mark Karan and Weir's regular guy vocals notwithstanding, this doesn't sound all that much like the Dead.\nTrue, there are a couple of bluesy workouts like \"Bury Me Standing\" and \"Odessa\" (which actually sounds more like the Band), but the bulk of the album is a lot more experimental. Witness the instrumental \"The Deep End,\" which flirts with late '60s free jazz, and the concluding \"Even So,\" with its dissonant guitar lines and edgy feedback. The general level of songwriting is extremely strong, in particular \"October Queen,\" a jazz-inflected sort of surreal Tom Waits-ish story (complete with surprise ending in the last verse) about a man who cheats on his wife in New Orleans once a year; it's the sort of thing that never would have even occurred to the Dead.","brand":"Bob Weir \/ Ratdog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44582195265769,"sku":"1OVLDX-Q8GW-00","price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/bob-weir-ratdog-evening-moods_ZfanQ_09a5b1fa-3e39-4bc1-aa7a-67918bec7bb5.jpg?v=1758989725","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/bob-weir-ratdog-evening-moods","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
