Have you heard it Stu?  Looks tempting, though at 27 notes I'm hesitating.....

As an album, it's fairly ordinary. The Floyd stuff is interesting, though not good enough to make it onto one of their proper jobs, and the Dead stuff is a couple of minutes from the Live Dead Dark Star, plus Jerry noodling around on a guitar. Quite nicely, but not exactly earth-shattering.

 

Add in a mixture of tracks from the American Kaleidoscope, Youngbloods and John Fahey (all otherwise available)and the jaringly dreadful Patti Page track and you end up with something that really isn't that good, though as  a Dead and Pink Floyd fan I had to have it, it gets played very rarely.
