...affaire Bruay began one early afternoon in April 1972 when a group of teen-agers kicking a soccer ball around an empty lot discovered the nude, mutilated body of Brigitte Dewèvre, a 16-year-old schoolgirl whose father is a miner. The investigation began routinely enough, with police looking for a "tall, strongly built man wearing a turtle neck" who had been seen with the girl the day before she died.

...Dead's choice of material for the album is disappointing. Anyone who has seen the Dead in the last six months knows that the group has some incredibly good new originals that were not included. The album could not have suffered if a version of "Morning Dew" or another of the Dead's long numbers was released instead of "The Other...
