Ace by Bob Weir

Ace, Bob Weir's first solo album, came out on Warner Bros. in 1972, though calling it solo stretches the point: the Grateful Dead's rhythm guitarist and singer brought his bandmates along to back him. What you get is the Dead's rootsy side with Weir steering, a loose-limbed blend of rock and roll, country and old folk strains, played by a band that knows every turn of the road.
These songs didn't stay put on the record, either. All but one of them went straight into the Dead's live shows and stayed there as staples, a second life on stage that outlasted the album itself.
