Just read your comment. 7 years later, I hope things are good in your world. You painted a beautiful picture in my mind, I definitely feel you brother….tears to the eyes. Going through the good ole’ days myself right now and so happy Garcia’s been a large part of my life. All of him is good but I’m definitely a 78’ - 82’ Garcia head myself. Always felt those years were the peak of his abilities. Cheers!
Haven't been to Penobscot Bay in more than 50 years, but what a beautiful place to listen to this immaculate concert. I'm sitting in the forest of northern Skåne in Sweden and what a concert! Thank You Voodoonola2!!!! You are a HERO! Jerry Lives
Wish I wish I was hanging out with you brother I used to have a girl there Jennifer both years who I really miss who lives up in Maine or actually New Hampshire now
I’m drinking a beer at 8:12am in Mississippi after working 5 nights straight about to go try and rest before my 4 kids and wife get home. With that same tear as I reflect on how blessed I’ve been. Peace 2/3/21 😎✌️
My first show was 81 & loved every minute of every one after ~ there was a real sense of love for the people as well as the band fun connections fun times ~ this won’t happen again that’s the saddest part ❤
one of my fave Sugaree, so amazing... and it just keeps getting better , love Jerry so happy, great video...makes me so happy, and Sitting Here in Limbo is obe of my favorite songs , Jimmy Cliff...but Jerry can sing it to me any day...thank you fof this wonderful happiness 🕉🎶🎶🎶🎶
Ine of the best JGB shows I've ever attended... WHoever posted this video This ones for you, and me and everyone out there who views it. Amazing Show!!!!
I've watched this over a hundred times easily on my computer, and will continue to do so for years to come. But I especially love the intro cartoon - what a gem!
@@KingCooperProjects I think it’s an oberheim, I’m drunk and stupid right now but I think I’ve looked this up befor. I’m pretty sure herbie Hancock has used a similar patch and it’s an oberheim of that era ❤
I'm with those who believe this is the best version of Sugaree ever recorded. The Dead were firing on all cylinders when they commenced performing this magical jam. Absolutely perfect.
I'm lovin' it. God I was only 19 years old and playing my own brand of guitar in a college band. Then I found this when I was 50 yrs. old. Wow.... Gerry sounds so in tune here with his guitar as well.
I always loved Jerry's shows. He had the time to develop solos that reflected his mastery and genius differently than when he was with the band. Here was where he really burned the coal. Thank you. Much love.
Once again Amazing.. nice to watch the different years... Still love 78 with Donna and Maria.. but I love Solo Jerry as well... I love the acoustic jams with Grisman.. and the pizza tapes.. got a bootleg at an early 90s show.. love to hear the expanded version with extra banter...I saw Jerry Band at Merriweather in 89 at 17 yrs old.. My second year of shows.. Went at 15 but stayed in Lot..overwhelmed with madness and Album Cover LSD... 1987... RFK DC.. went every year after to multiple shows..
Taped this show live on the radio back in 1980 when living in NY and wore out the tape. So glad to find this show several years ago on one of many shared music web sites after not hearing it for many years.
That was always a favorite of mine. And the DeadHead hour. These young fans shouldn’t be so hard on themselves You Tube is a great way to hear a lot of shows.
Glad I subscribed to your channel; I get an email every time you post a dose of musical history...always high quality! Jerry's tugging those strings into submission!
I'm here listening because the Jerry Garcia Band is coming to Hawaii next month, I don't know that I'll make it to the show so I wanted a listen here. Amazing.
This is such an amazing show Jerry is at the top of his game surrounded by incredible musicians. Hard to believe the drug induced rapid decline he's about to go on.
How Big Steve could diss the absolutely incredible playing of Ozzie Ahlers on the keys is beyond me. He is consistently my favorite person that Garcia ever had in that role with JGB, and I absolutely love Melvin, Nicky and Keith! Ozzie is sensational on this Simple Twist!
This was another Cool Show I remember this still well ~ some of the Happiest Highest Hi lights ~ simple time’s extraordinary times ~ we were lucky to experience this 🦋🤣😳❤
what an amazing concert, the band plays so well together at this show. I think dear prudence was also part of this concert and man they killed it on that song too. Amazing concert, truly shows off the band's talents. I love it.
19 years today we lost Jerry What I saw I loved what I missed I heard later what was to be, sadly, we will never know. All the |Shining Stars that burned so brightly but then became extinguished . We will never forget your name but continue to shake it, shake it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thank you
No disrespect to any of the other members of the greatest live band ever . But by far Jerry Garcia band is my favorite non DEAD band to have seen and continue to listen to. I read a article or saw a interview and Jerry was asked if he thought of himself of being a great guitarist and being the very humble Jerry he said nah but maybe if I was to play for 50 yrs, maybe I would. Lol I always hoped he lived long enough to have played 50 yrs. But we fans know that he was a incredible player. RIP JERRY!! Heaven is enjoying your spirit now!!
The fact that they gave their music and talent so Freely by allowing Taping is a blessing... Put on Jerry Band 78 or Grateful dead from 1977 or even 1989 for later Dead.. and Any early Pig (esp1970 IMHO).. meditate, pour a glass of wine, puff/Vape or do what make You mellow and happy and just Go Back... I have been taking care of Alzheimers Parent. Housebound. I have been doing Tours.. all of 1977 and now checking Jerry Band( not as much available) redid all 40 or so of My attended shows etc..
this incarnation of JGB. Garcia 🔥with the new ax, playing through Mesa Boogie. Late 1979 and 1980 was a period to behold. (First show 8/30/80 Spectrum)🤗
jerry plays so sweet n slow which i hear is alot harder then playn fast, every note gets appreciated thats a lesson i was given from a 87 ish instrument maker who in his day played with the likes of bill monroe who was known to play pretty darn fast
What a great nite of music. Went there with 3 friends, for both the early and the late show. I would always buy the late show tix first, then buy the early show tix if they were still available, cause the late show was usually 2 sets of music. The Capitol was a funny place. During the week in was a porn theater, complete with glory holes in the bathroom stalls. Best memory was getting tickets for the 1978 invitation only show. See it was so much fun..... I'm still on the bus.
John de Foncesca is just incredible on drums. This band was one of his best. Young kid Ozzie on the big stage rips it up, why they parted is a story id like to hear. This here is some powerful s*^t, 90 mile an hour fastballs, one after the other, straight down the plate. Straight heat all night long
Sometimes he was so hot, sometimes so tired and wan sounding, ah Heroin. But THIS show, man. He was on fucking fire. I was born at the wrong time, like you said. Sigh.
@Dennis Campbell - I agree, "Sitting Here in Limbo" got me too. The drummer is Ron Tutt, he was on the skins with Elvis Presley during the 1960's-1977. He was part of Elvis backing band TCB Band ("Taking Care of Business")
I loved John Kahn and saw as many JGB shows as possible. Living I. NY that’s a lot of shows. I would love how he would mix up his back up singers. I prefer how sweet it is by Jerry rather than oh god what’s his name. And Mission in the Rain is my all time favorite.
I didnt catch any dead shows. But one of best friends caught the last show at Soldier Field, so I live a bit vicariously thru him now n again. And yeah, they zapped him good. Thanks Jerry..see ya soon
To have RUclips l can tell u take it from me l start seeing them in HS. 1977 you get so much more out of the videos. Shows that l thought sucked l have a new appreciation for.
Jerry always had side projects going on while the GD weren't touring. From the New Riders to Merl Saunders to Old & In the Way to Legion of Mary to Reconstruction to the JGB, he basically never stopped playing. Crossreferencing thejerrysite with deadlists, 1980 looked like this: 1/13 - GD benefit 1/20 - 3/27 JGB 3/30 - 7/1 GD 7/18 - 8/9 JGB 8/16 - 10/31 GD 11/16 w/Dylan 11/26 - 11/30, 12/6, 12/12 - 12/14 GD 12/20 - JGB 12/26 - 12/31 GD Approx: 130 shows total
Who's here listening to this amazing music in '24
Will always play Jerry here in Indiana ✌️❤️😁
About to go to bed before I begin another 13 hour shift at work. Need something to mellow me out, and here (hear) it is.
I was until the FK,N commercials. I hate yt
Yes, while supplies of '24 last, you betchya!
I'm sitting on my back porch here in Maine looking at the penobscott bay and jamming this and brushing tears from my eyes.
Just read your comment. 7 years later, I hope things are good in your world. You painted a beautiful picture in my mind, I definitely feel you brother….tears to the eyes. Going through the good ole’ days myself right now and so happy Garcia’s been a large part of my life. All of him is good but I’m definitely a 78’ - 82’ Garcia head myself.

That's wicked cool! Love from Connecticut, we're down here jamming too.
Beautiful spring evening here in Mass. Giving the neighbors a big dose of Jerry today. Big love y'all!
Wish I wish I was hanging out with you brother I used to have a girl there Jennifer both years who I really miss who lives up in Maine or actually New Hampshire now

Still miss the man 8-9-2023 thinking back🙏we were blessed 💎💯🗿🧙🏻♂️
42 years ago and I remember this night like yesterday. Jerry's sweet guitar, bright voice and overall enjoying putting on a great show
I am Green with envy
You were very lucky to be there, congratulations!!!🎉 😊
Superb. It's good to see Jerry so happy. He loved to play. My first concert ever was JGB 1975. It changed my life for the better.
Me too, he came by SUNY New Paltz in maybe 1977, May, not quite sure...
Which s show in 75?
My first show was 81 & loved every minute of every one after ~ there was a real sense of love for the people as well as the band fun connections fun times ~ this won’t happen again that’s the saddest part ❤
Jerry's voice here was soooo sweet... His geetar playing was just crazy solid too - so we've got that going for us!
One of the best versions of Simple Twist of Fate that I have ever heard. Sing on Jerry!
You ain’t kidding. 😮I totally agree
Mission is the best to..awesome show.
That base solo ❤
My favorite quartet of all time. This line up is timeless.
one of my fave Sugaree, so amazing... and it just keeps getting better , love Jerry so happy, great video...makes me so happy, and Sitting Here in Limbo is obe of my favorite songs , Jimmy Cliff...but Jerry can sing it to me any day...thank you fof this wonderful happiness 🕉🎶🎶🎶🎶
One of my favorite shows to jam in my food truck for all to hear!!! 🤟
I listened to this every day for 6 months going back forth to work on the subway. It's simply amazing. Thank You Jerry!
Thanks Google for putting advertising during the middle of songs.... UNGRATEFUL
Mid bass rip in simple twist...atrocious timing
@@gratefulgrub4925❤😂
Probably one of my favorite shows right here
Lovin this opening Sugaree. Good vibes this show.
Ine of the best JGB shows I've ever attended... WHoever posted this video This ones for you, and me and everyone out there who views it. Amazing Show!!!!
Masterclass in session ▶️🎚🎛🎙🎸🎸🥁🎹🔈🔉🔊🎼🎵🎶⚡🔥
RIP JERRY THANKS FOR THE GOOD AND BAD I LOVE IT ALL HE GAVE US EVERY THING HE HAD DEAD TILL THE DAY WE MEET AGAIN
I've watched this over a hundred times easily on my computer, and will continue to do so for years to come. But I especially love the intro cartoon - what a gem!
The keyboard solo in sitting in limbo is fantastic!
What synth is he using? I’m dying.
@@KingCooperProjects I think it’s an oberheim, I’m drunk and stupid right now but I think I’ve looked this up befor. I’m pretty sure herbie Hancock has used a similar patch and it’s an oberheim of that era ❤
this might be the best version of sugaree ever recorded. i had no idea the JGB sounded so good. thanks voodoo for including the rippage
I'm with those who believe this is the best version of Sugaree ever recorded. The Dead were firing on all cylinders when they commenced performing this magical jam. Absolutely perfect.
@@markwilkerson5848
This isn't the Dead, It's the Jerry Garcia band. The best Dead version of Sugaree is 12/1/79 Stanley Theater.
I'm lovin' it. God I was only 19 years old and playing my own brand of guitar in a college band. Then I found this when I was 50 yrs. old. Wow.... Gerry sounds so in tune here with his guitar as well.
Gerry Jarcia lol
I just had one of those rare and beautiful eye-widening experiences during Sittting Here in Limbo, I can't thank you enough V, wow.
I was at this show ... the late one too .. Thanks for the sweet memories
Lucky you 😳😎
I always loved Jerry's shows. He had the time to develop solos that reflected his mastery and genius differently than when he was with the band. Here was where he really burned the coal.
Thank you.
Much love.
absolutely beautiful, what a show!!! and i can't believe this video's still here! damn! what a treat to stumble on today. thanks for sharing!

completely amazing...who could play shows like that today ...nobody
This is one of the best videos I've stumbled upon
I'm here listening because the Jerry Garcia Band is coming to Hawaii next month, I don't know that I'll make it to the show so I wanted a listen here. Amazing.
Thank you brother for putting this on RUclips
John Shears Capital Theatre video monitors in wavy black and white . High as a cat in a smoke filled dream. What a memory. Thanks.
What else can be said but, wow. Thank you for uploading this gem.
This is such an amazing show Jerry is at the top of his game surrounded by incredible musicians. Hard to believe the drug induced rapid decline he's about to go on.
Voodoo, you are, once again, THE BALLS. Thanx for everything
thanks for this. his solo on 'that's all right' is fucking brilliant.
Thanks carljw316smp for updating my memory banks, I was there for the solo show in 82. Very very cool to see Jerry by himself and in rare form
How Big Steve could diss the absolutely incredible playing of Ozzie Ahlers on the keys is beyond me. He is consistently my favorite person that Garcia ever had in that role with JGB, and I absolutely love Melvin, Nicky and Keith! Ozzie is sensational on this Simple Twist!
Parrish's inflated ego is bigger than Trump's
missing Jerry on the 18th year of is passing...Jerry is on fire at this show....such a special show
Every day is a Jerry day!😎🍄🍄😎
This was another Cool Show I remember this still well ~ some of the Happiest Highest Hi lights ~ simple time’s extraordinary times ~ we were lucky to experience this 🦋🤣😳❤
what an amazing concert, the band plays so well together at this show. I think dear prudence was also part of this concert and man they killed it on that song too. Amazing concert, truly shows off the band's talents. I love it.
a little bird told me this may just be the best concert that ever happened!
Bet your momma!
Lmao,if not, it's pretty damn close, lmao.
🌈🔟💜💙🧡✨
That Synth is awesome on Sugaree!!
Do you know what synth he is using? I can’t figure it out.
That's Alright Mama, any way you dooooooo!
Jerry & the boys are absolutely on fire.
NSFW - tears, goosebumps and can't focus now.....oh how I love this band.
This is how we roll
God Bless Brother, so sure I’ll see you play so very soon again
And check out the late show that night with Robert Hunter doing Tiger Rose and Promontory Rider with the band. Jerry couldn't be happier.
Such ease n flow to this show. 🙏thanks I’m very G…….
Love Jerry and Mule... Rip Garcia & Kahn...
19 years today we lost Jerry What I saw I loved what I missed I heard later what was to be, sadly, we will never know. All the |Shining Stars that burned so brightly but then became extinguished . We will never forget your name but continue to shake it, shake it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thank you

Thank you for the great post. I have to believe Jerry was in a good mood.
He was always In a good mood with JGB. CATS UNDER TBE STARS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES. Donna wrote 2 songs on that album. Take that haters.
Love this my man.. Thank you

Jesus there is sooo much in just the first solo of Sugaree…
Tiger’s tone is beyond words.

think i was at these shows at the capitol theater like muscle memory, think i have music memory we miss Jerry
Gotta say, I'm from Maine to, Aroostook County, definitely Jerry and the band at their best performance

This here is some powerful s*^t, 90 mile an hour fastballs, one after the other, straight down the plate. Straight heat all night long
Johnny died in a car crash and the magic wasn't there with Ericco.
Sometimes he was so hot, sometimes so tired and wan sounding, ah Heroin. But THIS show, man. He was on fucking fire. I was born at the wrong time, like you said. Sigh.
I think Jerry said that the Capitol was his favorite place to play.
Agreed. The Dead loved the Garden. I use to see him at. CW Post.
We love you!!!
Great video.. Had this on bootleg tape in the 80s...was released as Garcia Live vol1.. The video is even better though!! love your stuff...
