Dylan Patterson Check out "Keller Williams at Soul Kitchen" on archive.org. Some epic guitar playing by Gibb Droll. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a lot of other stuff out there that I've been able to find, but it is one amazing show to say the least.
Thank you. SO MUCH. For posting this album. I had always wondered why this wasn't on RUclips or Spotify. Such an amazing compilation of songs. This was my very first Grateful Dead album, and there's a story behind how it found me. At the time, I was a young delinquent. The music I had bern listening to ranged from Korn to Primus to Mudvayne and ICP. Later, finding Pink Floyd and taking a short liking to their music. Yes, I was one of those 90's kids. Angry at my parents, my self, and the rest of the world sometimes for reasons unknown to me, finding out as time went on there were reasons for it, but some areas are still dark murky paths which I still don't understand to this day and perhaps I never will. Around that time, my family life was turbulent and volatile. My parents were constantly on the brink of separation and divorce, which really cut me deep, as I distinctly remember my dad telling me something of that nature would never happen. My mom had a sort of ritual of visiting a pawn shop across the river in Cahokia, Illinois on occasion. While we were there, I saw a metal basket attached to a steel shelf filled with dusty CD cases, laden with finger smudges. Half the CDs were missing from their cases. I saw a blank 2-CD case with both CDs, shiny metallic surfaces with what appeared to be skulls lightly etched onto the frontvside of each one in a design similar to frosted glass. I was really into skulls and anything that depicted darkness, apathy, or death in general. So, I decided to buy it for around $3. I took it home, listened to it, and I haven't stopped listening, attending Grateful Dead tribute shows, festivals, and the like ever since. And that's the story of how The Grateful Dead found me. I am literally afraid to think where I might be if I hadn't come across this CD. I probably would have started listening to the Dead eventually, as most of my friends started going to festivals a few years later. Which, for some reason, I was late to that party and still missed quite a few great times to be had. But, I was in such a dark place prior to this album. This helped me find myself and ground myself here on earth. Mentally and physically. Of course, I'm not the sanest crayon in the colored pencil box... But without this. A few years of dealing with my mom and dad's back and forth bs, running with my mom, abandoning my father for some time, being in shitty relationships, having shitty friends, constantly being used and abused, me being the only one of my close friends that decided not to use heroin, failing in work, in school, and at life in general because of all this... Earth would most likely not have been my home anymore. But this... This made all of that OKAY. This album in particular. Any time of day, when I wasn't busy with school (or unbusy, I guess you could say) or work or dealing with my parents' bs... Listening to them scream at each other while I was screaming inside... I could pop this CD on my makeshift stereo system or in a portable CD player, crank the volume up, and all of that terrible nonsense would just... disappear. Anyways... if you've made it this far and are still reading this... thanks! Thank you for sticking around to read this and just in general! Life is really, really, beyond words that can describe how hard it can be. Did I suffer? Oh you're damn right I did! But when I look back on it now, it wasn't really all that bad in comparison to what others may be going through. I've always had a roof over my head. Might not have been my own or a place I could call my home, but I have always had shelter. Perhaps more than I should. I've gone hungry and malnourished quite a bit, but I've never starved. And that's what this has taught me. Be grateful for what you've got, and hopefully, God-willing, might you never truly be without. I'm not a firm believer of any particular religious faith, but may God bless you. Stay kind. Do something nice for someone you don't know once in a while. There are lots of people out there struggling. It's up to us to be the change we want to see in the world.
He came to town with a strong pull Would flash his moves for the worshipful Shoulder moves from side to side Go over your head, and dot your eyes Every night about a quarter to ten From the middle of June till the summer's end People would gather from miles around To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down He'd pull up from around the back Folks say, "there's Rainbow's Cadillac" Fancy shirts and shorts of plaid Coat of more colors than Joseph had Every night about a quarter to ten From the middle of June till the summer's end People would gather from miles around To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down Take a quarter form the collection plate Every night he would dominate Jump to the top and pick off a dime Throw it down at the proper time Every night about a quarter to ten From the middle of June till the summer's end People would gather from miles around To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down
One of my favorite albums tyvm
Love this whole cd-when it came out I danced to this all the time-Bruce was soooooo great with the Dead!!!!!😊😊😘
Aside from Phil and friends with Warren and Herring, this was the best post Garcia band without question.
Can I get a witness?
My sentiments exactly
Agreed
anything with phil singing is repulsive and sickening
Yup love Steve K. Too...
Agreed....I enjoyed this band very much. Loved the tour when Ziggy opened for them. I did Hampton, Greensboro, Suwanee, and Atlanta I think. Fun times
Amazingly groovy 🌈 🎶🙌❤️
This is everything...Steve Kimocks solo on this is the stuff of legends

True that Steve takes it to the stratosphere only like jerry could.
Agreed

You lost me at thank you🤣😂🤣
Stay strong
He came to town with a strong pull
Would flash his moves for the worshipful
Shoulder moves from side to side
Go over your head, and dot your eyes
Every night about a quarter to ten
From the middle of June till the summer's end
People would gather from miles around
To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down
He'd pull up from around the back
Folks say, "there's Rainbow's Cadillac"
Fancy shirts and shorts of plaid
Coat of more colors than Joseph had
Every night about a quarter to ten
From the middle of June till the summer's end
People would gather from miles around
To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down
Take a quarter form the collection plate
Every night he would dominate
Jump to the top and pick off a dime
Throw it down at the proper time
Every night about a quarter to ten
From the middle of June till the summer's end
People would gather from miles around
To see the mighty Rainbow knock 'em down
The other ones album
Great band, great sound, except for any time phil sings of course.
You just have no appreciation for the crooner 😂
