What an amazing gift we were given by this man. I’m sad he’s gone but grateful for the moment in time I got to share in his genius.If you got to see Jerry play live consider yourself one of the luckiest people on earth. I know I do !
Dylan's words, Jerry's playing, or Jerry's singing - any of the 3 can take you from heartbreak & that aching in the pit of the stomach feeling to the euphoria of redemption in a matter of 2 frickin bars. Words of despair become enlightening. A weeping guitar becomes rich in hope. A broken verse becomes a hallelujah. They must've picked that up in a theory class, right? RIGHT? How the f? Thankfully recorded immortals, thank you.
Thanks for the earliest Jerry version of this song I’ve heard the first non 80s version I always wondered why he didn’t cover it sooner and I’m glad to find out he did
Agree with your comment! But about your name tag? If you think playing commie is so cute, try asking the millions who survived getting out from under it, or the millions more who never made it. But stick around, your dictator, Beijing-Biden, is already shoving Amerika down that drain.
Never heard this 70s version until today. So many Dead gems I still discover on youtube. THANKS for posting this. Dylan didn't know it at the time but he wrote these tunes for Jerry, the boys and the heads.
Me too I'd like to think I'm a pretty solid head. I too had never heard this or even aware that it existed. A real gem man. Thank you for sharing this. This my go to song when I'm fixing a jerry jones, feeling stuck in contemplative state or oddly feeling really really content or happy...I go to it and I never regret it
what's amazing to me is one of the things he did best was take covers and not only made them his own, but he had this ability to become the song & the story teller, really no matter what he was singing. It's a unique trait.
Stillfknmissm. Never heard this studio version before. Freakin gives me chills. Aw fuck, Jerry, did you really have to leave? My dad, my son, my Jerry, what a load. I'll never really get over it. Thanks for posting Jeff.
Yeah. . . I came here to find out who the hell that piano guy was. . . hopin' it was Keith. . . but it wouldn't disappoint if it were . . . DAMN YOU OLD AGE!!!!!! that guy who the Stones used when they needed some melodic keyboards. . . EDWARD!!!!!
Are far as I know they played together for just that one tour in 75’. There was an album release with that particular configuration, but I don’t remember the name. It has Sitting In Limbo which has some of my favorite Nicky Hopkins playing.
The lyrics, the melody, and from the mid point of the song makes me think of days gone by... filled with a breezy melancholy... Can't imagine a better marriage - words, and music by one of the true geniuses of music... RIP Jerry...your legacy continues to inspire...

This has always been my favorite Jerry cover of Dylan. It's just such a special tune to begin with--such cool lyrics. There's a message in this song. I've never 100% figured it out, and that's kinda what makes it so fun. When you take Dylan's lyric and sprinkle Jerry on it...it makes for a very cool and very special moment. I especially dig the way Jerry slows it down a bit, and throws such a tasty solo over it. Brilliant!
I mean, there can't be a better song than VOJ. Every verse is topped by an ever better one, it's Dylan's masterpiece. I mean, every single line can launch you into a spiral. The point is that I can't explain this song at all. But throw Jerry into it, you have to listen to all 16 mins.
I feel like this is Dylan's version of Sartre's No Exit or Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Some sort of existential holding pattern that is at once incredibly confining but at the same time made incredibly beautiful by the artist and their art. "We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it"
¿No es como la noche para jugar trucos cuando estás tratando de estar tan callado? Nos sentamos aquí varados, aunque todos estamos haciendo todo lo posible para negarlo. Y Louise sostiene un puñado de lluvia, tentándote a desafiarlo Las luces parpadean desde el desván opuesto En esta habitación, las tuberías de calor solo tosen La estación de música country suena suave Pero no hay nada, realmente nada que apagar Solo Louise y su amante tan entrelazados Y estas visiones de Johanna que conquistan mi mente En el lote baldío donde las damas juegan al farol del ciego con el llavero Y las chicas de toda la noche susurran sobre escapadas en el tren "D" Podemos escuchar al vigilante nocturno encender su linterna Preguntarse si es él o ellos los que están locos Louise, ella está bien, solo está cerca Ella es delicada y parece el espejo. Pero ella lo hace todo demasiado conciso y demasiado claro. Que Johanna no está aquí El fantasma de la 'electricidad aúlla en los huesos de su rostro Donde estas visiones de Johanna ahora han tomado mi lugar Ahora, niño perdido, se toma a sí mismo tan en serio Se jacta de su miseria, le gusta vivir peligrosamente Y al mencionar su nombre Me habla de un beso de despedida Seguro que tiene mucho descaro para ser tan inútil y todo eso. Murmurando una pequeña charla en la pared mientras estoy en el pasillo ¿Como puedo explicar? es tan dificil seguir adelante Y estas visiones de Johanna, me mantuvieron despierto más allá del amanecer Dentro de los museos, el infinito sube a prueba Las voces hacen eco así es como debe ser la salvación después de un tiempo Pero Mona Lisa debe haber tenido la melancolía de la carretera Se nota por la forma en que sonríe Ver la congelación primitivo alhelí Cuando todas las mujeres con cara de gelatina estornudan Escuche al del bigote decir: "Por Dios, no puedo encontrar mis rodillas" Oh, joyas y binoculares cuelgan de la cabeza de la mula Pero estas visiones de Johanna, hacen que todo parezca tan cruel El vendedor ambulante ahora habla con la condesa que finge cuidarlo. Diciendo, "Dígame alguien que no sea un parásito y saldré y rezaré por él" Pero como Louise siempre dice "No puedes mirar mucho, ¿verdad, hombre?" Mientras ella misma se prepara para él Y Madonna, todavía no ha aparecido Vemos esta jaula vacía ahora corroerse Donde su capa del escenario una vez fluyó El violinista, ahora camina hacia la carretera. Escribe que se ha devuelto todo lo que se debía En la parte trasera del camión de pescado que carga Mientras mi conciencia explota Las armónicas tocan las llaves maestras y la lluvia Y estas visiones de Johanna son ahora todo lo que queda 1 chavruta2000 chavruta2000 hace 3 meses Chester Prudhomme Chester Prudhomme hace 1 año How lucky am I at 78 years old to have grown up with Bob Dylan, Jimi, Chuck Berry and thousands of great musicians.......and it ain't over yet!!!!!!
The best Dylan song sung by the best interpreter of his tunes...I love this and Positively 4th Street, as done by Garcia. The man could always evoke a tear or ten from those sad ballads he loved to sing so much. Is that Nicky Hopkins on piano? That is outstanding keyboard work. Wow!! What a "masterpiece." ;)
If that's Nicky, the engineer ought to be flogged. What a waste of a brilliant piano player. The piano is damned near the only variation audible in sixteen minutes. I think I'll go listen to "Pig's Boogie"...
I grew up in the Village in NYC and when I was young and heard the BYRDS doing Dylan my life changed. The song Mr Tambourine Man was coming out of the Bleeker St Record Store. The Byrds, Dylan and the Band were all over down there. We saw all those dudes regularly.
This song knocked me back 13 rows to my knees at Soliders 95 I want to say RIP Jerry but I really feel like saying keep on rocking out in heaven we will see you

I'l always remember that night at Soldiers Field. The wind in his hair blowing, the times were tough. He was fumbling lots of tunes and then he gives us a Visions of Johanna flawlessly. The stars shone over Chicago that night even though the end was near.
My oh my did he ever belt that out. From the very depths of his aching soul too. Nothing can ever top that version. Neither this one, nor Dylan’s very own epic ‘66 live version from Sheffield, England. Jerry Bear dug deep down for that one that night. Glad you heard it live. I woulda wept like an infant. We all knew the end was near. He wore it all over his face. Some of the saddest days I’ve ever lived through. If Jerry hadn’t passed then I very well might have from my own heroin addiction. I didn’t want to end up like him. So, many years after ‘95 I finally cleaned up myself. I sincerely thank Jerry as one of the people who helped me through it. God I miss the guy!
The angels are circling my speakers. it's a beautiful sound to them. Jerry. so poignant. covering Dylan. imo. sounds good here. THANKS JERRY. THANKS DYLAN. This is what salvation must be like after a whie......
Garcia how we all miss u like I tell people u either feel it or u don't u wanted to be remembered as a compatin musician but you were a legend to me .......Uber Dave
Miss you Jer Today is Blue Ron's 50th Happy Pig Pen Day 3-8-23 Dylan's just played FOTD, Bobby is amazing, so is Phil & Mickey & Billy.. you'd be so proud Miss you more than words Kahn tell 😢 Thank🕺♥️⚡💙💃You
that's real truth. it was safer when he was alive. he knew it was getting weirder and worse but it got way darker when he left. I never really felt scared before he died. now am scared almost everyday. its true what you said. I think he was God
@@marttram2183 Not a close neighbor but Marin County neighbor. He had a short marriage after he divorced Carolyn and lived with young wife and their child in Marinwood which is close to Novato where we lived and where Mickey Hart had a ranch where the Grateful Dead had a studio a few miles from us. I think Bob Weir lived in Mill Valley but was in Novato frequently to work at their studio . Our daughters worked at Jack in the Box in S. Novato in the early to mid 1980s next to Marinwood where Jerry came thru the drive thru on his motorcycle regularly and came inside to order once when our younger daughter was working there and waited on him, but didn't know who he was until another waitress told her. He was always in our local news. True next door neighbors around 1990 who you may have not heard of was Eric Martin, who had played backup for Journey when their group was called 415 before called The Eric Martin Band.. Eric and his wife and Dave Meniketti and another member lived next door to us. Some housemates formed group called Y & T who played some street concerts right on our block.
@@jillschoenfeldwhite5534 those are great memories. A time that I, as a 27 year old, will never experience. Jerry is the one guy I wish I could've seen live, especially in the late 60s/early 70s period. I haven't yet found modern music that makes me feel quite like how the classic rock age makes me feel, and Jerry is the heart of it all to me
Listen to.....I think it’s 3/18/95....... he remembers all the words... a special performance for me, not sure why. He was dead 5 months later...... shit man
That version was officially released on "Fallout from the Phil Zone." Jerry's vocals and solo are achingly beautiful. That was my wedding day in CT, and to this day I wish I had driven down to the Spectrum instead, just so I could have seen that performance of this song!
If you are one who must create to survive, the nugget of truth in this piece is, "Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial Voices echo This is what salvation must be like after a while" Fkn Dylan.
Yet another excellent rendition of a classic Dylan tune done with the kind of soul & passion only Jerry could have performed it with. Simply put it's lyrical & musical perfection at its best!
this is very easy listening...the best quality recording i've heard on youtube, vocals and instruments, but i like the later live versions better for pure emotion.
@@drewl9330 i know, i know enjoy now for what it is, we may all be dead tomorrow...but i wonder how much of what we hear in a song is coloured by what we know of the back ground story... did willy nelson, or johnny cash, who i cant stand as singers, sound any better as breathless old men on death's door, or did they sound better knowing we wouldn't have to put up with their crap singing for much longer...hhmmm...
It takes a beautiful soul to sing like this, I close my eyes and can see him in the studio on a bench with a Cheshire cat smile on his face and a sparkle in his eyes. I miss him so damn much. Addiction sucks dic. Peace to all be safe
I mean you could technically say he did write the guitar. The guitar work deviates from the original, especially during the jam session after the final verse.
Sometimes Garcia’s cover versions of Dylan classics are better than the composer’s live transformations. I think it’s because Garcia sticks to what he felt of the original version, and this one is a good example.
What´s the only thing better than Dylan? Why, Jerry Garcia playing Dylan, of course! As with all good covers, Garcia makes this quintessential Dylan-song completely his own. Magical stuff. :)
Is there more beautiful music than this I do not think there is poignant elegant makes one think makes one drink this music should go on forever and ever it makes me feel loved
Dylan, the genius...Garcia...MASTER of illusion.....great mixing, thanxxx wikipedia and youtube for sharing some of the best music..in the world...Feb 14, 2016-Richie
Danke Herr Kingfish. This is really beautiful! Special not just because God took human form for a few short years to entertain us. But also because Jerry chose to play another Dylan song. And this time he gets all the lyrics right.(He must have used a cheat sheet.) And he plays the whole song, and it sounds so good. God bless Jerry. RIP Thanks for posting Jeff. From Vienna, peace.
Jerry hated that crap. Jerry was a man with talent. That's all. Doesn't mean I don't love what he creates any less but that god crap rubbed the man wrong.
That's got to be a Jerry Garcia Grateful Dead reference and that song other than ever came out with an album cuz Jerry Dives yeah yeah days between eternity Tucson Arizona Sonoran Desert yes I keep on keeping on Rastafari
Was fortunate to be at the breakout in Hampton 3-19-86. Search out the video, on RUclips. Head full of Gooney Birds and blown away🤯 Walked out and my tour buddy said... "What the fuck just happened in there"🥰
so beautiful... a studio version of Visions Of Johanna (studio 1976? ) 1976, That would mean it likely has Keith on Piano not Melvin or Nicky(?) the guitar is just glorious
@Gary Daniel I was wondering if it's Nicky too. Phrasing seems a little "spare" for him, but he was such a musical chameleon it's hard to be sure. I know somebody who might know. Let me reach out and see if I can get a definitive answer.
from what I have come to understand (per David Gans and Blair Jackson who worked on this release) this was recorded sometime in Nov. of 1978 with Keith on Piano. Blair told me a great story about the post production that I will share here somewhere.
There are a couple studio pros on his 70s album besides Keith Melvin didn’t play piano on any of his studio stuff. The Bo Diddley outtake has Hopkins on it other than that I can’t find him on any studio session with Jerry.
This is why I am and Jerry is always a live performer !... I can't be sitting around the studio and just trying to get everything sterilized perfect man I got a flow with it just like the Grateful Dead
"When I paint my masterpiece(s)." Yes, both Bob Dylan and Jerry Garcia have done so here. First, lyrics that include lines like "she's delicate, and seems like the mirror" (of so many, and even just so in this song alone), indicate that Bob Dylan is light-years ahead of all other songwriters. Next: the way Jerry just steps to the plate, and masterfully strings out the flow of both the lyrics and song . . . is brilliant. I'm 'pressing on' for more Jerry covers of Bob.
@@williamkershner4999 Me too! I thought I was the only one. Took me years to see it in a book. For a while I sang “mirror”, but one day I mentioned to my wife that I liked “seems like veneer” better and she said “then sing it that way.” And I have ever since. Sang it at an open mic in Sacramento a couple of months ago and I was pleasantly surprised at the reception-that some of the younger folks even knew the song. Go several nice comments from some of the other players. Been singing it since 1969 but this was the first time I did it in public. My favorite Dylan song.
For many decades, without having seen the printed lyrics, I listened to Dylan's version of this song (hundreds of times!) and I heard "She's delicate, and seems like Vermeer." Yes, Johannes Vermeer, the 17th century Dutch Baroque painter. I don't know why, that's just what I heard.
likeForrest says.....brings me to tears as well.......that's what the dead does.........and laughter and dancing and being good men..........that's key............for me!............they bring us to feeling like no other group and we need that........we need to feel more 'cause our women are gettin' tired of the same old thing!........just sayin'..............it's all good!
Philosophical Spaghetti for the Soul right here y’all!! The sound quality on this track is exquisite. I mean, the soul and the ooomph Jerry elicits here is one of the absolute best versions I e ever heard and paired with the recording is clear and the levels are perfect. Is this a Betty board? This sbd is absolutely perfect I’ve got to know who ran sound? “I want to know. Are you ~ kind? “
Wish they’d put this on the standard box set. I didn’t manage to pre-order as, unbelievably, I wasn’t a dead head back then. Managed to get one on eBay years later but no bonus disc 😢
Garcia turned this into a very bittersweet ballad with him bringing it out again in 95 n that tour and time in my life booth crazy and not to good always brings a tearful smile,,,,,,,omni Atlanta ,,sick version"v..THE EMPTY. LOT WHERE THE LADIES PLAY BLIND MANS BLUFF W A KEYCHAIN U CAN HEAR THE ALLNITE WOMEN WHISPER OF ESCAPADES OUT ON THE D,TRAIN U CAN HEAR THE NITE WATCHMAN ASK HIMSELF IF ITS HIM OR THEM DATS INSANE⚡⚡⚡🍄🍄🍄🌷🌷🌷
If you can only listen to two songs for the rest of your life, this would be both of them.
This would definitely be one for me too. This version.
So true... although I may add The Dead doing Desolation Row
I read this comment as I hit play and chuckled at the wit. Near the end of tbe track, I realize you were serious and I agree.

"Visions Of Johanna"
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet ?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing really nothing to turn off
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind.
In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D-train
We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
Louise she's all right she's just near
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna's not here
The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place.
Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
And when bringing her name up
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
Oh, how can I explain ?
It's so hard to get on
And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn.
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
See the primitive wallflower frieze
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze
I can't find my knees."
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel.
The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Saying, "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him."
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man."
As she, herself prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes everything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loads
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.
"She seems like veneer"[IMO]

Little boy lost, takes himself so seriously, he brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles

¿No es como la noche para jugar trucos cuando estás tratando de estar tan callado?
Nos sentamos aquí varados, aunque todos estamos haciendo todo lo posible para negarlo.
Y Louise sostiene un puñado de lluvia, tentándote a desafiarlo
Las luces parpadean desde el desván opuesto
En esta habitación, las tuberías de calor solo tosen
La estación de música country suena suave
Pero no hay nada, realmente nada que apagar
Solo Louise y su amante tan entrelazados
Y estas visiones de Johanna que conquistan mi mente
En el lote baldío donde las damas juegan al farol del ciego con el llavero
Y las chicas de toda la noche susurran sobre escapadas en el tren "D"
Podemos escuchar al vigilante nocturno encender su linterna
Preguntarse si es él o ellos los que están locos
Louise, ella está bien, solo está cerca
Ella es delicada y parece el espejo.
Pero ella lo hace todo demasiado conciso y demasiado claro.
Que Johanna no está aquí
El fantasma de la 'electricidad aúlla en los huesos de su rostro
Donde estas visiones de Johanna ahora han tomado mi lugar
Ahora, niño perdido, se toma a sí mismo tan en serio
Se jacta de su miseria, le gusta vivir peligrosamente
Y al mencionar su nombre
Me habla de un beso de despedida
Seguro que tiene mucho descaro para ser tan inútil y todo eso.
Murmurando una pequeña charla en la pared mientras estoy en el pasillo
¿Como puedo explicar?
es tan dificil seguir adelante
Y estas visiones de Johanna, me mantuvieron despierto más allá del amanecer
Dentro de los museos, el infinito sube a prueba
Las voces hacen eco así es como debe ser la salvación después de un tiempo
Pero Mona Lisa debe haber tenido la melancolía de la carretera
Se nota por la forma en que sonríe
Ver la congelación primitivo alhelí
Cuando todas las mujeres con cara de gelatina estornudan
Escuche al del bigote decir: "Por Dios, no puedo encontrar mis rodillas"
Oh, joyas y binoculares cuelgan de la cabeza de la mula
Pero estas visiones de Johanna, hacen que todo parezca tan cruel
El vendedor ambulante ahora habla con la condesa que finge cuidarlo.
Diciendo, "Dígame alguien que no sea un parásito y saldré y rezaré por él"
Pero como Louise siempre dice
"No puedes mirar mucho, ¿verdad, hombre?"
Mientras ella misma se prepara para él
Y Madonna, todavía no ha aparecido
Vemos esta jaula vacía ahora corroerse
Donde su capa del escenario una vez fluyó
El violinista, ahora camina hacia la carretera.
Escribe que se ha devuelto todo lo que se debía
En la parte trasera del camión de pescado que carga
Mientras mi conciencia explota
Las armónicas tocan las llaves maestras y la lluvia
Y estas visiones de Johanna son ahora todo lo que queda

How lucky am I at 78 years old to have grown up with Bob Dylan, Jimi, Chuck Berry and thousands of great musicians.......and it ain't over yet!!!!!!
The grateful dead totally changed the course of my entire life and I've never looked back, once.
100% agreed. I am a better person for having them as my permanent soundtrack. Jerry & The Boys are beyond description. Safe Travels.✌️👍🕺🌌
Same here. They changed me.
⚡❤️🤍💙⚡🎶🎵🥀🌝
The Ghosts of Electricity are howling in the bones of my face.
Her, beautiful lyrics, Dylan and Garcia are/were the best.
This is my favorite visions. It flows like water!
Exactly like water
The best Dylan song sung by the best interpreter of his tunes...I love this and Positively 4th Street, as done by Garcia. The man could always evoke a tear or ten from those sad ballads he loved to sing so much. Is that Nicky Hopkins on piano? That is outstanding keyboard work. Wow!! What a "masterpiece." ;)
also when i pain my masterpiece from the same album of my favorite version of 4th street, garcia does dylan, that whole album is amazing.
If that's Nicky, the engineer ought to be flogged. What a waste of a brilliant piano player. The piano is damned near the only variation audible in sixteen minutes. I think I'll go listen to "Pig's Boogie"...
Masterpiece and 4th Street
I grew up in the Village in NYC and when I was young and heard the BYRDS doing Dylan my life changed. The song Mr Tambourine Man was coming out of the Bleeker St Record Store.
The Byrds, Dylan and the Band were all over down there. We saw all those dudes regularly.
Never understood why Dylan didn’t Marry Joan Baez. Wrote this song about her and she wrote Diamonds and rust.
Best cover of the the greatest songwriter of our time.
This song knocked me back 13 rows to my knees at Soliders 95
I want to say RIP Jerry but I really feel like saying keep on rocking out in heaven we will see you
Say one of best concert moments in 26+ yrs
I have Ryan and we will. OBE experience Ryan.
JERRY WAS ANOTHER HIGHER PLACE AS HE AND HIS BOYS DELIVERED THAT NIGHT!
My favorite Dylan song. I had no idea Jerry covered it. I like it.
I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. . . . you're wrong. . . you LOVE it!
I like it but hes trying to sound like dylan too much and nobody can sound like dylan
@@jennifertroy476 Nobody EVER tried to sound like Dylan. Great songwriter, but worst singer of all time.
@@Marshall_Stacks i knew it was a dylan song the minute i heard it
Oh man, brought me to tears. R I P Jerry Garcia & John Kahn.
Forrest George this is so good!
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet ?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing really nothing to turn off
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind.
In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D-train
We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
Louise she's all right she's just near
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna's not here
The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place.
Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
And when bringing her name up
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
Oh, how can I explain ?
It's so hard to get on
And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn.
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
See the primitive wallflower freeze
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze
I can't find my knees."
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel.
The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Saying, "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him."
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man."
As she, herself prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes everything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loads
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.
+Forrest George Thanks for posting George. Needed that information. WWJD.
Forrest is my first name. George is my LAST name, like Lowell George , my father. He produced "Shakedown Street".
@@TheRealForrestGeorge loved your Dad Forrest
Beautiful version of such a beautiful song. RIP Jerry you will never be matched
you ain't lying, he was da man
His voice is heartbreaking!
Rest in peace, dear friend...
I'l always remember that night at Soldiers Field. The wind in his hair blowing, the times were tough. He was fumbling lots of tunes and then he gives us a Visions of Johanna flawlessly. The stars shone over Chicago that night even though the end was near.
Well said. I was there. It was a heartbreaking moment but beautiful nonetheless. Fare thee well Jerry 🥀
My oh my did he ever belt that out. From the very depths of his aching soul too. Nothing can ever top that version. Neither this one, nor Dylan’s very own epic ‘66 live version from Sheffield, England. Jerry Bear dug deep down for that one that night. Glad you heard it live. I woulda wept like an infant. We all knew the end was near. He wore it all over his face. Some of the saddest days I’ve ever lived through. If Jerry hadn’t passed then I very well might have from my own heroin addiction. I didn’t want to end up like him. So, many years after ‘95 I finally cleaned up myself. I sincerely thank Jerry as one of the people who helped me through it. God I miss the guy!
It was actually in stage air conditioning causing the hair to blow, but point taken on the performance ❤
The angels are circling my speakers. it's a beautiful sound to them. Jerry. so poignant. covering Dylan. imo. sounds good here. THANKS JERRY. THANKS DYLAN. This is what salvation must be like after a whie......
Garcia how we all miss u like I tell people u either feel it or u don't u wanted to be remembered as a compatin musician but you were a legend to me .......Uber Dave
Yep full blast volume here with 6 speakers.. You can almost feel Jerry in the room..🍻
Miss you Jer
Today is Blue Ron's 50th Happy Pig Pen Day 3-8-23 Dylan's just played FOTD, Bobby is amazing, so is Phil & Mickey & Billy.. you'd be so proud Miss you more than words Kahn tell 😢 Thank🕺♥️⚡💙💃You
Wow! Really beautiful :) Especially dig the understated yet poignant solo that begins at around 7:05. Thank you Jerry.
Listen to you Jerry brings love and joy and sometimes tears; thanks for all the good times and company for more than 40 years, RiP mate
JUNKIES OWN YOU...........................
This, Morning Dew and So Many Roads - poignant, sincere, creative et al. Only Jerry could.
Appreciation also due to all the accompanists.
That is really special. The ghost of electricity indeed.
Miss you Jerry, the planet is not the same without you being here physically. Thank you for all the music you left behind.
that's real truth. it was safer when he was alive. he knew it was getting weirder and worse but it got way darker when he left. I never really felt scared before he died. now am scared almost everyday. its true what you said. I think he was God
Greatest version of this song besides one of Dylan's by my late ex neighbor in Marin County!
Jerry was your neighbor??
@@marttram2183 Not a close neighbor but Marin County neighbor. He had a short marriage after he divorced Carolyn and lived with young wife and their child in Marinwood which is close to Novato where we lived and where Mickey Hart had a ranch where the Grateful Dead had a studio a few miles from us. I think Bob Weir lived in Mill Valley but was in Novato frequently to work at their studio . Our daughters worked at Jack in the Box in S. Novato in the early to mid 1980s next to Marinwood where Jerry came thru the drive thru on his motorcycle regularly and came inside to order once when our younger daughter was working there and waited on him, but didn't know who he was until another waitress told her. He was always in our local news. True next door neighbors around 1990 who you may have not heard of was Eric Martin, who had played backup for Journey when their group was called 415 before called The Eric Martin Band.. Eric and his wife and Dave Meniketti and another member lived next door to us. Some housemates formed group called Y & T who played some street concerts right on our block.
@@jillschoenfeldwhite5534 those are great memories. A time that I, as a 27 year old, will never experience. Jerry is the one guy I wish I could've seen live, especially in the late 60s/early 70s period. I haven't yet found modern music that makes me feel quite like how the classic rock age makes me feel, and Jerry is the heart of it all to me
La de da
@@jillschoenfeldwhite5534 Are you talking about Eric Martin from Mr. Big? Y&T were an awesome band, they deserved to be bigger than they were.
Listen to.....I think it’s 3/18/95....... he remembers all the words... a special performance for me, not sure why.
He was dead 5 months later...... shit man
Spectrum!
That version was officially released on "Fallout from the Phil Zone." Jerry's vocals and solo are achingly beautiful. That was my wedding day in CT, and to this day I wish I had driven down to the Spectrum instead, just so I could have seen that performance of this song!
If you are one who must create to survive, the nugget of truth in this piece is,
"Inside the museums,
Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo
This is what salvation must be like after a while"
Fkn Dylan.
deadtimber spot on, brilliant!
Fuck yeah my good friend trump 2nwo
Yet another excellent rendition of a classic Dylan tune done with the kind of soul & passion only Jerry could have performed it with. Simply put it's lyrical & musical perfection at its best!
Stunning studio work Y'all nailed it! Perfect 0! (~);·}X
Where has this recording been all my life? Holy cow!
love this song...I can feel every word as in all their songs but Jerry does this song amazingly well..i am in awe
The visions have indeed kept me up way past the dawn.
David Hull They are keeping me up right now buddy...
Jackstraw 34 love you brotha loool
I once met a girl named Johanna at Rosemont Horizon GD 1993. We really gelled. Lost contact with her. I still would like to see her😍
@@patrickhume485 damn. Well hell, give her a ring sometime you never know bro
me too
Starordinaria versione cover dell'originale dylaniano. Grandissimo Jerry Garcia! :-)
this is very easy listening...the best quality recording i've heard on youtube, vocals and instruments, but i like the later live versions better for pure emotion.
Thou shall not judge the dead.
@@drewl9330 i know, i know enjoy now for what it is, we may all be dead tomorrow...but i wonder how much of what we hear in a song is coloured by what we know of the back ground story...
did willy nelson, or johnny cash, who i cant stand as singers, sound any better as breathless old men on death's door, or did they sound better knowing we wouldn't have to put up with their crap singing for much longer...hhmmm...
La versione di Jerry è molto più intensa e avvolgente di quella di Dylan
Jerry does the song justice and i feel like that is hard for anyone else to accomplish.
Exactly!
Excellent point. You, fine Lady, win the $78 price. And no ones done that before. Peace.
Definitivamente
even Bob..
agree not sure anyone else can masterfully pull this one off
So clean, that piano finally gave Jerry a run for his money and it turned out magnificent.
Who's on this piano, Nicky?
this is . . . . . perfect
Just absolutely perfect.
as only Jerry could
It takes a beautiful soul to sing like this, I close my eyes and can see him in the studio on a bench with a Cheshire cat smile on his face and a sparkle in his eyes. I miss him so damn much. Addiction sucks dic. Peace to all be safe
JUNKIES OWN YOU, CUPCAKE.......
Thanks Jeff. I could listen to Jerry sing Dylan for the rest of my days.
This sounds almost like Beethoven at the start....then the progressions of Nicky Hopkins are better than Bob Dylan ever imagined this song sounding.
One of the very few covers I enjoy as much as (maybe more?) than the original.
Thanks 4 postin this!
Jerry plays & sings it like HE WROTE IT! Only he could pull this off in such a way IMHO.Thanks 4 postin this!
HALF PAST DEAD your very welcome
I mean you could technically say he did write the guitar. The guitar work deviates from the original, especially during the jam session after the final verse.
@@Alink2yoshi hush
Sometimes Garcia’s cover versions of Dylan classics are better than the composer’s live transformations.
I think it’s because Garcia sticks to what he felt of the original version, and this one is a good example.
It hollows me out and fills me up at the same time...
i don't claim to know this man's groove, but i know he grooved when gettin after dylan.
of that, there can be no doubt.
Here another cover version of Visions of Johanna: studio.ruclips.net/user/videogONKHeg8mvY/edit
Eccellente. Garcia genio. Non c'è altro da aggiungere, solo tristezza per i dislike.
What´s the only thing better than Dylan? Why, Jerry Garcia playing Dylan, of course! As with all good covers, Garcia makes this quintessential Dylan-song completely his own. Magical stuff. :)
Jerry you’ll always be the man and we’ll never be lost because we found you
Is there more beautiful music than this I do not think there is poignant elegant makes one think makes one drink this music should go on forever and ever it makes me feel loved
This Songs been on my mind
Thank you Jeff ✌🏽💓🤠🤙🏾
Happy Jerry Days Between Brotha 🤘🏾🤗💗🎩
A JGB all-nighter for me: HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021!
Dylan, the genius...Garcia...MASTER of illusion.....great mixing, thanxxx wikipedia and youtube for sharing some of the best music..in the world...Feb 14, 2016-Richie
Danke Herr Kingfish.
This is really beautiful! Special not just because God took human form for a few short years to entertain us. But also because Jerry chose to play another Dylan song. And this time he gets all the lyrics right.(He must have used a cheat sheet.) And he plays the whole song, and it sounds so good.
God bless Jerry. RIP
Thanks for posting Jeff. From Vienna, peace.
Stefan Schleps you think Jerry Garcia is god 😂😂😂 may the lord cut through your deceptive thinking
Thanks for the kind word!
Jerry hated that crap. Jerry was a man with talent. That's all. Doesn't mean I don't love what he creates any less but that god crap rubbed the man wrong.
this is a profound contribution to humanity
Que fantástico!
Happy Days in Between
That's got to be a Jerry Garcia Grateful Dead reference and that song other than ever came out with an album cuz Jerry Dives yeah yeah days between eternity Tucson Arizona Sonoran Desert yes I keep on keeping on Rastafari
C'est juste magnifique. Quelle sensibilité.
I love you.
Oh…There are no bad Wallflower tunes either. It lives on.
Was fortunate to be at the breakout in Hampton 3-19-86.
Search out the video, on RUclips.
Head full of Gooney Birds and blown away🤯
Walked out and my tour buddy said...
"What the fuck just happened in there"🥰
This song has gotten me through many hardships, thank you for posting🩶NFA
Simply beautiful is all I can say.
Favre Dillon and jerry style jer really nails it
What a gem! I'm soooo glad you posted this thank you.
Excellent! Especially the Jerry and piano (Keith?) improvisations!
Goosebumps always.❤❤
Great song. Thanks for the upload!
One of my new favorite songs
so beautiful... a studio version of Visions Of Johanna (studio 1976? )
1976, That would mean it likely has Keith on Piano not Melvin or Nicky(?)
the guitar is just glorious
Guessing 76-79 myself, voice too fresh for 82 Sounds like Keith too, but not 100% either
@Gary Daniel I was wondering if it's Nicky too. Phrasing seems a little "spare" for him, but he was such a musical chameleon it's hard to be sure.
I know somebody who might know. Let me reach out and see if I can get a definitive answer.
Sounds like Nicki Hopkins to me.
from what I have come to understand (per David Gans and Blair Jackson who worked on this release) this was recorded sometime in Nov. of 1978 with Keith on Piano. Blair told me a great story about the post production that I will share here somewhere.
There are a couple studio pros on his 70s album besides Keith Melvin didn’t play piano on any of his studio stuff. The Bo Diddley outtake has Hopkins on it other than that I can’t find him on any studio session with Jerry.
Awesome version Jerry rip my brother
This is why I am and Jerry is always a live performer !... I can't be sitting around the studio and just trying to get everything sterilized perfect man I got a flow with it just like the Grateful Dead
So so beautiful! Mesmerizing!
"When I paint my masterpiece(s)." Yes, both Bob Dylan and Jerry Garcia have done so here. First, lyrics that include lines like "she's delicate, and seems like the mirror" (of so many, and even just so in this song alone), indicate that Bob Dylan is light-years ahead of all other songwriters. Next: the way Jerry just steps to the plate, and masterfully strings out the flow of both the lyrics and song . . . is brilliant. I'm 'pressing on' for more Jerry covers of Bob.
I've always sung: ..."Delicate, and seems like veneer." Different. Never thought/new of "the mirror"...
@@williamkershner4999 Me too! I thought I was the only one. Took me years to see it in a book. For a while I sang “mirror”, but one day I mentioned to my wife that I liked “seems like veneer” better and she said “then sing it that way.” And I have ever since.
Sang it at an open mic in Sacramento a couple of months ago and I was pleasantly surprised at the reception-that some of the younger folks even knew the song. Go several nice comments from some of the other players. Been singing it since 1969 but this was the first time I did it in public. My favorite Dylan song.
For many decades, without having seen the printed lyrics, I listened to Dylan's version of this song (hundreds of times!) and I heard "She's delicate, and seems like Vermeer." Yes, Johannes Vermeer, the 17th century Dutch Baroque painter. I don't know why, that's just what I heard.
Anyone know the date? Sounds like Keith I would think 78ish
likeForrest says.....brings me to tears as well.......that's what the dead does.........and laughter and dancing and being good men..........that's key............for me!............they bring us to feeling like no other group and we need that........we need to feel more 'cause our women are gettin' tired of the same old thing!........just sayin'..............it's all good!
Philosophical Spaghetti for the Soul right here y’all!! The sound quality on this track is exquisite. I mean, the soul and the ooomph Jerry elicits here is one of the absolute best versions I e ever heard and paired with the recording is clear and the levels are perfect. Is this a Betty board? This sbd is absolutely perfect I’ve got to know who ran sound?
“I want to know. Are you ~ kind? “
Raises the hair on my neck every time
Hmm muchbepper them other versions I’ve heard
Lol
Bet Jerry had the highway blues too.
JZ SNAKE the highway blues are what bring many of us here to this beautiful music my friend 😉
@@dominickmicale5413r a ruptured eardrum. only then did I understand this song.
Wish they’d put this on the standard box set. I didn’t manage to pre-order as, unbelievably, I wasn’t a dead head back then. Managed to get one on eBay years later but no bonus disc 😢
Damn ! This is almost 17 minutes long !! Love it 😁
Garcia turned this into a very bittersweet ballad with him bringing it out again in 95 n that tour and time in my life booth crazy and not to good always brings a tearful smile,,,,,,,omni Atlanta ,,sick version"v..THE EMPTY.
