This is 54 years ago, only 5 years into the golden road (four if you don't include the Warlocks). Considering there was another 25 years in the tank, I say early. But your mileage may vary.

And I think of the 1st 3 albums, up until Live Dead, as Early Dead. Jerry and the band just have such a different sound by the time of Europe 72. But that's my take, nothing carved in stone, of course.
