4 out of 5 stars Classic hippie-stoner country from the early 1970s.......2006-08-28

This is a long overdue reissue of a best-of set that gathers the best tracks from this hippiebilly band from Northern California. The New Riders were originally a side project of Jerry Garcia and some chums from the Grateful Dead, but as their attention turned elsewhere, the band took on a life of its own. They specialized in drug-oriented novelty songs ("Henry", "Panama Red") and shambling boogie-rock covers of rock and R&B oldies. It still holds up pretty well, especially if you're interested in the roots of the modern alt-country scene.

(Note: This edition (2006) adds five bonus live tracks, expanding the set from its original 1976 vinyl release and the previous, 1990 CD reissue.) (DJ Joe Sixpack)

5 out of 5 stars Five Star Country Rock.......2001-05-06

Gene Pitney should be proud of them - the best version of Hello Mary Lou by far with a stunning display by Buddy Cage on pedal steel. If you come across their version of You Never Can Tell you'll hear how even a Chuck Berry original can be upstaged - it was obviously meant to be played in the Country Rock style that the New Riders conveyed better than any other group.

5 out of 5 stars Must have for New Riders fans!!!.......1998-10-11

From the classics "Kick in the Head" and "Henry" to "Panama Red", what an increadable collection from this awsome band.

      3 out of 5 stars One important correction..........2001-09-07

      I just want to amend the previous review -- there is one key member from the original New Riders on these tracks: the lead singer/songwriter John "Marmaduke" Dawson.

      3 out of 5 stars Just Okay.......2000-04-13

      It's sad when a band name becomes public-domain.

      I don't know who owns the name "New Riders Of The Purple Sage", but this is NOT the same band that played "Panama Red".

      I've seen the same thing happen to "The Flying Burrito Brothers".

      None of the band members are originals, but the sound is true to the original.

      There are no stand out songs, there is no stand out singing. But this is a pleasant effort nevertheless.

      You could do a lot worse. Everybody's heart is in the right place and I'm glad to have this CD as part of my collection. Just be forewarned- this is not your father's "New Riders".
