2 stars Surrealistic Pillow. It's not excellent. It's excellently overrated! Jorma Kaukonen produces one of the most amazing consistant performance on any album from any guitarist I've heard, but that's just what this is: Guitar Rock. It's Delta Blues people! The gems of this album are "3/5 Of A Mile In 10 Seconds" "Come Back Baby" and "She Has Funny Cars". Everything else proved to be a chronic disappointment. "White Rabbit" was one of the biggest pieces of rubbish I have ever heard, and it makes me sick that people worship this song so much. It's LSD in music form. And "Somebody To Love" is just an average, repetitive, boring blah-blah song that people get tired of. Every other song except maybe, just maybe "How Do You Feel" is a boring, forgettable attempt at making a good album, and its a shame because Jerry Garcia contributed to this piece.

YAWN!!!
