- "From the middle night of a five night stand that were billed as the Dead's "Farewell Concerts," this is widely considered one of the greatest, and most emotional, versions of Morning Dew ever performed by the Grateful Dead. Thankfully, the Dead's farewell proved to be a two year hiatus from live touring, and in June 1976 they returned to the road." - David Lemieux

There are musicians, and then there is the Good Ol' Grateful Dead.
We are coming up on 50 years since this performance. What a wild thing to think. And it's still so relevant and impactful to so many. New heads are getting turned on everyday by the sonic tapestry the boys weaved through the decades. What an incredible time to be alive. ❤❤❤❤
You thunk
Tapestry called free. People making their own…living loving forever ❤. Get some on you and spread it. “Leave it on!”.🎉 Another Ron once said. “Without a warning…”
Everyone says Jerry died young. He really lived for the time he was here. The most relaxed lead guitar player ever
He died just in time
Right? People always say it’s so sad when musicians die young but they often live lives most of us could only dream about.
He died young, just after my second show, after listening for 15 years
The most relaxed lead guitarist…so well said.
I agree; heck yes@@richarddebellis1965
Don't want to brag but I was at all 5 shows. It was farewell to the wall of sound. On the fifth night, Mikey Hart rejoined the band after leaving in the wake of his father ripping off the band a few years earlier. I think I sat in the front row of the balcony most nights taping these shows on a Nakamichi tape recorder. This was before taping was allowed and we had to smuggle our gear past Winterland security. Still friends with the guys I went to these shows with. What a long strange trip indeed...
Mark Salditch is it freaky to see this in such high quality footage
Do you have any of these recordings on RUclips or somewhere else? I would love to see some of this footage!
My mistake, you taped it! Haha. Guess it's my 19 year old bias here assuming you recorded with video! Hope you have a good day & life of health
I was there for all 5 & Bill Graham& crowd and birthday cake singing happy birthday to Weir first show
Thats awesome man
Man, im 26 and just found the dead feel like Ive been missing out for years. What an incredible thing music can be
I've known about them since I was 9, I'm 45 now and only last year actually discovered what they're all about...I finally got it.
@@jasonlambert5552 hey man, better late than never, right! At least we're on the train now 🤙
this made my day
Welcome home
Duckie, may I recommend, as a long time fan, that you catch Phil Lesh live at the earliest possible convenience. If you have not already done so.
There is no substitute for the real thing, in person...
Almost makes me sad. Time is so precious. Please enjoy it and be kind to one another.
well, in Vietnam there was reason enough to cry out loud! this is the band that everyone went to hear for comfort and security.
If it gives you any comfort time is not linear, it's just how we perceive it. So this moment is infinite, just like that moment in 74
This may be the greatest example of what the Grateful Dead was all about that I've ever seen in my forty years of being a deadhead. Gives me chills and makes me cry all at the same time.
Amen
I'm sitting here listening on Christmas morning with tears in my eyes.
And everyone at the show had a great beautiful trip!
I keep coming back to this Winterland run because nothing can touch the ambiance and music. Would be hard to find anything else which presents in such amazing Light (and quality).
Been a DH since 1971. Listening now to 05-08-1977. 😂
You know that moment when the music washes over you and you feel like you're in a different place. You can feel the stress of the day completely leave your body. It almost brings tears to my eyes.
Almost?
That feeling of perfect peace walking out on to Post Street after the concert was incomparable! They blasted us off, flew us around and gently deposited us back.
You described every Grateful Dead concert I ever attended. Even in the so called later days of Jerry. The shows, the music, the whole scene was that transcendent. It was soul lifting, indeed. And Jerry was awesome, right to the end. Imho.
This is a great comment 😁
Another classic by far grateful dead piece of. similavr to a Rembrandt, seems everywhere this piece was performed live, morn dew just happens bridge th gsp between/7
Still miss Jerry and always will. This was our church, our community. All like minded kind people. What a time what memories.
@A little loppy Hey Kids Still is & Will always be All Of Ours ...Thanks To The Boys In The Band...Thank You
Church.....indeed
😢😭
Its hard because I think about the people who were so close to me.
Morning Dew is one of those tunes.
Jerry died on August 1st.
And I am NO one special by any means but Jerry died on my birthday- August 9th.
I have dreams.
I have wonderful feelings but death is death and may he be in peace- as WE ALL so need it right now.
ॐ
I was 15. But ya know- I still believe.
For each human being.
God knows.
@@stacyblue1980 my dad brought me to my first and last dead show In June of 95' my dad died a month later
July 8th and Jerry month later. I was 12. Best memory I have of my dad was watching him dance and trip at that show!!! Oh the times we would've had when I reached my teenage years!
But yes, I feel a real deep connection w the GD for that awesome time I shared w my dad 1 month before he passed.
Miss ya pops. Miss ya Jerry
My love will not fade away!
This song is so powerful and moving, there is something otherworldly about it. It took me almost 50 years, but I finally "get" the whole "Deadhead" thing now.
Better late than never, right?
Guess it doesn’t matter anyway 😉
@@janeriksrlie4861 haha, touché
Had to be there man
When I was growing up in the 70s and 80s, I was a proud punk and scorned the Dead. Later, I worked in the music biz, with a lot of indie/alt/punk musicians in the 90's.
Fast forward to 2010, and I had a shit life year and somehow spent hours, just hours, listening to the Dead on archive.org and posted something about that on FB. This ancient punk guy, famous musician, says "we all shit on them at the time, but the terrible secret is that the music is very, very good."
Couldn't say it any better.
@@danhedonia never saw the need to shit in peoples choice of music.
Im a converted punk myself, but the bashing was always lame.
Grateful Dead helped me battle the COVID days. I would just sit there and listen to them, specially morning dew. I feel like thanks to them those day were bearable.
My husband and I got together during this concert series, so long ago! I had had a hard crush on him for years. Two kids and 48 yrs of bliss later… still sounds fabulous!
I have attentending concerts for a few decades and now I'm not, the casinos are trying to latch on to the money
so amazing!
I am so happy that you are here on the earth to live your life. It makes my universe complete just to hear one such love story around the group that showed me infinite love an joy are within.
@@scottobrien3605 What a sweet thing to say and yes- the music never stops!
Fantastic.
It doesn't get any better than this.
The world needs more Jerry, and a healthy dose of Fred Rogers. This is a step in the right direction. I approve.
totally. the world would probably be far less fucked up than it is.
Hear,hear!
YES!!!!
A good dose of Brent as well
How bouts A healthy Jerry & A dosed Fred Rodgers?
I'm not crying, you're crying
Shut up, I just have something in my eye!
Allergies, dude. Sniff.
lol
Alex Pensyl 👍🏼🤣👍🏼
There's no cRying in deaDShows... there's no crying. Just fRying... does that make sense? Did everyone bring their cast irons? Hmmmm.
Yeah, for sure in my Top 5 favorite Dew.. Jerrys singing is perfection, the Band completely
in sync - Jerry unfurling waves of goodness from his gtar. Miss you Big Man..
wasn't expecting to be crying at my desk, but here we are. absolutely beautiful. thank you
Same 😭
always gets me😭
Yes, tears and goosebumps. The sense of purity and truth.
I kinda expected the waterworks when I sat down with a joint to watch this at 3am. Was not disappointed.
I was in the shower and when I heard it I just knew it was special I stopped the water and sat in complete rapture... Wow.... Thank you
Transformational and the reason we are ALL here. Thank you David for sharing the magic with the kind folks who love it the most. BTW, who the hell disliked this video! Repent!
I noticed that too! Maybe because it ends.
Hahaha. I was thinking the same thing. How can you not love this?? ❤️
Repent! Love it
Sorry but my old man's thumb caught the 'dislike' button as I was going for the 'like' 🤦🏼♂️
@@geoffbuck6865 😂😂😂...😢😭
the magic of this performance is their use of dynamics...quiet/build/loud/climax/release...repeat.....genius
RIP Jerry. Thanks for everything you shared with us!
At 5:50, Phil’s blissful smile and hand gesture after that magnificent bass chord - priceless!
I gotta learn to play some chords on my bass, they sound so good....
Clearly an uh huh moment!
Love it when you can see "it" on musicians face!
Bass Thunder
I also love Jerry looking at him smiling waiting for him to drop the face melting bass bomb
Imagine the sound of that moment with the WoS heavenly I’m sure Phil is so cool 😎
Smoked DMT, started getting into a bit of a panic, chaotic feelings swelling in my chest. I put this on and all my troubles melted away, just Jerry, Phil, the Boys, and me, in transcendental space for all of time.
Every time the Boys would simmer down into near silence, it was like the ultimate tranquility would take hold.
You can just tell they were in no rush here, nowhere to be, nowhere to go, nothing was more important than the next note that was to come from their fingertips, and giving the people a beautiful lament that I'm sure everyone in that crowd carry with them to this day.
Godspeed to Jerry, Long Live The Dead, and may the universe bless you beautiful Dead Heads!
boy am I glad that I got on the bus. This version is absolutely sublime. Cheers to all the deadheads worldwide.
This mix is fire. Phil's shaking my whole house rn.
What does this "mix is fire" mean?
@@dunestunes1 that the audio channels are leveled correctly. Can hear everyone as clear as a spring chicken. Phils bass especially, theres bombs all up and down this dew
not kidding
phil was taking concrete out of the building with those bass bombs
Totally agree....video is pristine as well. Fire indeed.
I just listened to this after being there live 46 years ago with a group of pranksters from my high school one was my girlfriend Lisa who left this earth way to early like Jerry but I was blessed to know and love both of them. My quest for the rest of my days is to learn and play all the songs from this show and reconnect with tears of joy and sorrow.
Peace be with you. Tonight. I play this. Just Lucy and I. Starting at the sky with diamonds. My diamond is the mother of my son, my best friend. My most longed for contact. Taken in a housefire. My son was 8. I’ve never faced this pain. Praise Yashua not one inch of her burned as the house did around her. In my father’s hands just sleeping. Until I wake and see those eyes again. Forever grateful forever a vapor. Grateful. Dead. ❤
Bonnie Dobson was my great aunt from Canada she wrote this song as a result of a nightmare she had about nuclear holocaust when she was a teen. Thank you for posting
You have great aunt and you can be proud from she write this song now i am in 40 and remeber when i heard this song in my 14 me and girlfriend take 2 acid and leter H and we stay 2 days in bed only push repeat thanks for your aunt and god bless you big whishes from Croatia
I just learn a lot about morning dew, thanks to your comment. love hearing about the origins of songs. thank you.
@@ivanbarisic559 thank you for your kindness.
You say 'was' as though she is no more. I'm delighted to be able to tell you that great aunt Bonnie is still alive and has been inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2018. By her own account the song was written after a dinner party discussion with friends where the topic had turned to what the world would look like after a nuclear holocaust, which was inspired by the film 'On The Beach'. But I suppose she could have had a nightmare too.
God spoke to her, and Jerry spread it from the rooftops so loud it can still be heard today and maybe lend some ballast to things.
When the Dead music was what the real fans talk about. Wish everyone could have experienced a Winterland show! Plus Morning Dew always seemed like their true Anthem. So lucky so much has been recorded!
Too bad they did not compose it. Jerry liked it and that's all that matters... A song about nuclear Armageddon would be a little weird to represent the band. Dark Star would be more fitting.
@@rogdow5497 They didn't compose it, but they changed the words, and those changes transformed the song. I always heard the song as not about nuclear armadeddon, but as a love song where one of the lovers is at first hesitant but then decides to open up accept the love.
At 5:50 you can see just how much Phil loves the wall of sound. Nice to see a guy love what he does.
This is simply the Cornell '77 of Dead videos. The very best.
This entire series of concerts was filmed for what became "The Grateful Dead Movie"...
Knew someone had to Barton on this.
Jerry's face as Phil is dropping bombs makes me so happy. This song is so beautiful.
Phil bomb at 5:50 is magic. Instant shivers.
This movie changed my life the first time I saw it. It wasnt long after my little brother passed that I became a die hard deadhead. This song means more to be than I can put into words. Still shocks my soul and brings tears to my eyes of both joy, grief, and awe.
Also, if you haven't taken a trip and wtached this ful movie, you're missing out.
Amen to that man
So good! I love seeing the audience shots, too. No cell phones, no talking. What it must have been like to see them at Winterland!
Agreed. Feeling it! Pure magic!
I was at these - and a couple hundred other - GD shows. Still have my "THE LAST ONE" stamped ticket stub. More or less grew up under the mirrored ball. Hard to express just how good those good times were...
@@tablaturebutler2823 I can sort of imagine. My first show was in 1988. The smallest one I saw was JGB in Reno NV, in a parking lot venue. While most of the shows I saw were quite large, I did have the pleasure of seeing some very special and memorable ones. And of course there were no cell phones! And hanging out near the spinners, not too many people talked during the show :-)
Both Winternald and the Fillmore felt much larger than they really were. It's as if the whole world was there.
No cell phones, how true and beautiful.
My son's favorite song to fall asleep to. He's 10 months old. Just shy of a year,not even a full trip around the sun and he already has a love for Jerrys voice and guitar ❤️
Putting my daughter to sleep w it now. She’s 6
Awesome guys there’s hope for the future💥💯
Seu filho felizmente faz parte das pessoas que tem o verdadeiro bom gosto!
No one has traveled around the sun. The sun isnt 93 million miles away. And earth isnt a round ball either. The grateful dead were a masonic stooge band...and knew this. Fuck these lying motherfuckers. Damn shame...still like the music.
My daughter would fell asleep to “Gimne Shelter”! 🤷🏻♀️😂😂😂🤷🏻♀️
I was there all 5 nights. Magic!
me too 19yrs young
we drove all the way down from humboldt county to see this show. we didnt have tickets but in those days they always held on to a few hundred tickets to sell at the door at Winterland, so you could always get in. Saw the show and drove home the same night. What a blast!
Jerry's beard was so epic it had it's own microphone
dual microphones are out of phase to prevent feedback. In case you give a shit;)
Lmao 😂😂Well said!!
Jevf Kon and Owsley discovered that technology, I believe.
It was designed out of necessity because their entire speaker system, known as the Wall Of Sound was located behind them. It was the premier sound system of the time. Most bands sounded like garbage in big halls, so they developed this system to get over the crowd without distortion. It's pretty amazing, including the fact that each musician has his own stacks of speakers, the out of phase mics, and even a quadrophonic soundboard.
@@jevfkon5787 easy dude, that was an epic comment even Jerry would've adored... in case you give a shit
This video was an emotional rollercoaster, definitely one of the best dew sets but probably the best filmed set too...and thanks to David and the dead team for reminding us why we love the dead and why It brings us together.
Where's Bobby in this video? Heard but not seen!
Yet he's not seen even for a second!
He's certainly mixed in loud--much louder than usual.
There always a prejudice against this most unique rhythm/almost lead guitarist who's content to be number two, without apparent ego
@@smsdr bob is kinda shown in the background of a few scene's but does not put on a show or move as much during dew sets because he plays a crucial part in the acoustics to help jerry keep rhythm and keep the whole song together, same reason for why he is mixed in louder, and you can hear each player clearer because the wall of sound is being used in '74
Bob is there, shown for a sec. Mickey isn't altho he would be to finish the Winterland shows out. Funny story that as related in the book Living With The Dead by Rock Scully
@@murcules33 yea I'm not sure about the whole story but didn't mickeys dad kinda rip off the band or something?
Sam Bouchard -According to the book he did rip them off of their record advance. They tracked him down and only got 30K back out of like 500K. Mickey was mortified & quit but came back during these Winterland shows & stayed on. Its a good story, i def recommend Living With The Dead
Does anyone else feel like they need this song on repeat right now? It seems even more poignant with all of the covid-19 uncertainty. Just like always, Grateful Dead are here for me when I need them. 🌟
You're not the only one. ❤️⚡💀
Totally agree. I'm spending a lot of time on youtube these days with the self-isolation. The music I love has saved my life in the past and it is again now. Its good to find similar minded people like you here too. It really helps with the loneliness of this crazy time.
The cycles repeat. Covert 19 is just another bunch of sorrow and bs.... and it’s clearly caused by people. Not natural. All of Jerry’s songs are about humanity. Good bad and ugly
jennoelle29 💯
Ripple always soothes me too. Absolutely necessary
Play this at my funeral service.
I’ve listened to this version at least a thousand times. I’ve cried a million tears.
I could go on about the interplay of the instruments, the dynamics etc.
all core five are all essential in this and just exactly perfect at the right time together here. Jerry generously let’s the entire band finish up at the climax. Mind body soul wrenching no words for this 13 minute journey. Never fails, never will
I’m so lucky to love this band. Billions are missing out.
They don't know what they're missing.
Have seen the Dead many times. Their music has stood the test of time
This is the song that finally made me "get" The Dead. Bobby and Jerry together are truly fantastic in the art of weaving their guitar lines. They are all fucking excellent.
in '69 i got up onstage for six hours ('NOT STRAIGHT!! HA, HA") you better believe me..i'm who i am today because of the Dead.
Nothing less than mystical and sublime. I could hear this reverberating all the way to my bedroom in suburban New York, age 6 ears and mind wide open, weeping at the beauty-by 1984 i would see my first show in New Haven, Connecticut and was then officially “on the bus!” I miss you Jerry🥲
One of the finest pieces of music ever crafted. Miss you, Jerry.
The Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band to ever walk the face of the Earth...
Ahhhhhh, JUST what I needed on this glooomy Thursday of May 2019.......sparks some light!!
Hey, me too! Right on...✌❤
Yup! ❤✌
sparks some other stuff too!
@@mharvey2010 That smile Phil gives Jerry right as they BOMB that note at 5:50 is glorious!
Forever and ever a favorite!
Ageless......... We had such a wonderful lifetime of experiences........ and although its sometimes painful to acknowledge that those days are gone, how fortunate for us that we lived them..... and lived them well. Thank you, for those thirty years of magic!!!
Whiskey River .....Here,here!
Whiskey River you're right, I may be old and creaky now but I feel so lucky to have lived in that time.
This is one of the most moving Morning Dew’s I’ve ever heard. Must’ve listened to this a dozen times in the past few days.
Chills. Everytime.
Oh well I mean I can come snuggle you while we take a listen together, I'll bring the matches.❤
Once I finish my time machine I know where my first destination will be. At this exact moment in time. This is such a moving morning dew. Probably the boys best version they ever played. Phil absolutely drops bombs on this one. Thanks boys for such a moving song. Never heard anything so beautiful as this.
I can't stop listening to it. They have never performed a tune more perfectly than this.
This is batshiat! Billy absolutely crushes it, too! I’ve never heard this version and I am blown away. Just blown..
This version is amazing. I would honestly argue that Lyceum ‘72 is better with Jerry’s guitar work and vocals but this one is fantastic
you read my mind!
Sorry, Europe 72’ is better 😂.
That bass guitar power chord at 5:51 shook my entire soul! Holy Christ!
There's just something about Morning Dew... no matter what my train of thought is, as soon as I hear that opening chord I am snapped right out of it and just *present* for the song. This channel - and in particular this project to roll out video from the vault - is a freaking gift, thank you!
Y'know? You're right. There is something ineffable about Morning Dew that makes it, somehow, more than it is.
Did you know this was the first song Bonnie Dobson ever wrote? She was 18 at the time, and we all lived under the nuclear shadow of the Cold War.
[Side note: Actually got to see her perform, and meet her, when we were traveling in the UK last fall. An absolutely delightful warm, open hearted, and generous woman who, by the way, is still in fine voice to this day (much to her own surprise). I don't think she exactly understands the whole Dead phenomenon, but she does appreciate that her song continues to mean a lot to many, many people who barely, if at all, know who she is.]
Very well said. It’s spooky. I’ve heard this thousands of times and it’s always the same feeling. Miss you Jerry!
The song was performed and sang by Jerry as a way to seriously bring you back from a hardcore Trip...bring ya back to Planet Earth and relax the Brain...( I"m gonna be ok :)))
Practically the most powerful chord that exists in the deads music. That opening D sucks everyone in. You could hear a pin drop it’s just so
Emotional it takes me places my mind didn’t think existex
It seems like this song had the same effect on the band too. Every version of this song I hear is very focused and present, no matter what year it's from.
I accidentally became obsessed with the Dead recently. I blame this song, and particularly this performance of this song. The part that starts around 5:37 and particularly right around 5:47 where Jerry looks over at Phil and smiles because he's about to unleash pure magic from his guitar is one of the most delightful facial expressions I've ever seen another human being display. I am just mesmerized by all of these musicians and this song is so damn good. I'm glad they decided to cover this because as awesome as the words and theme are, I didn't much care for the original version.
Good catch you can tell they are on
Well, that was lucky. I've been wondering who was the original. Do you know the name?
In the vernacular, they are known as "Phil Bombs"...
@@Deejaay83urj38 The song was originally written and performed by Bonnie Dobson...
Literally my favorite part of the song, great time stamp 😍 Once the camera pans up to the disco ball, you just know shit's about to get real lol
This never gets old. Just amazing seeing Jerry looking and sounding so healthy. I love the 74 sound.
One of the best versions of the best songs.
Sounds like it was recorded yesterday - crystal-clear sound for 1974. And a mighty performance, of course!
Move over Europe 72. This just became my favorite Morning Dew.
Check out 1974-06-18 and 1973-09-11
@@aetetreau Will do. Thank you.
1973-11-17 and 1973-12-02
sooooooo grateful for some good free content that has made for so much magic in our lives amongst all the negativity in our modern world
Hear, hear!!!
well said
Yep, it's great great having all the Grateful Dead we wanna hear available at just a touch.
Just love seeing all the roses coming to Jerry perfect! 3:25
Henry Capps Yep. Chills.
Man o man... what an amazing version!
I saw the Dead play approximately 300 shows my wife saw over 500 shows. I miss you Jerry wish you were here my brother.
I lost count at 100, and I estimate the total as somewhere around 275. After that and all the hours of listening to the tapes, I think of this as one of the definitive versions of Morning Dew.
The sparkle in Jerry’s eye during the close ups is so beautiful. He was truly an amazing soul.
I’ll never forget my 12 year old head and my dad seeing that Jerry abs passed, and he just shook his head in disgust….it hurt him to see someone so brilliant and in my eye saint like dye from something so bad.
I wound up hooked on pain meds etc. and eventually heroin, and survived somehow, and I can feel Jerry’s pain in the later years even though he was big and jolly, there was pain there.
What a beautiful song, and beautiful band…🙏🔥✌️🤙🏻💚💯👽👾❤️
Probably my favorite performance of any song by any band caught on film. This whole movie is a masterpiece
The jamming in this number at this performance - it ranks with the all-time greatest Jazz bands when they would reach their apex live on stages in the 30s, 40's, 50's, even into 60's...free...a group of musicians all speaking to each other with their instruments - having a conversation...through the language of Jazz music. That's what they were playing for much of this...Jazz...in it's purest form. They just did it in their Grateful Dead style. This was sublime. Absolutely sublime. And a gorgeous lyric and voice to convey it to boot. Bless them all.
That's me at 6:04 - 6:08...And Jake Taylor...I was 18. Great 4 days!
AWESOME!
WoW. My dream. I was 87’ to 95’ I use my imagination to ‘be there’ by using my hi-end hifi system. Lucky girl.
Can we be fbook friendsm
I gotta be in there too somewhere - I was at all four of these shows - but I can't say I've found myself yet. All the best!
Wow, that's so cool!
Mourning the loss today of Terry, who taught me to love The Dead. RIP my best friend, first husband, and volunteer father to my child. You were extraordinary ...
Morning Dew is still one of my favorite Jerry songs live, never fail to get lost in it's melancholic beauty...
Still get so warm and fuzzy when I hear this version. So dang good!
This song, this version of this song, is sacred.
Music and lyrics: Bonnie Dobson
Performed by: The Grateful Dead
Arrangement: The Holy Spirit
MAGICAL! Jerry's liquid notes cascading out like a waterfall. As pure a sound as could be imagined.
So true My brother uses this metaphor all the time, and he is right. It is like a waterfall.
This has become my favorite version. The crowd roars, jerry's singing, and the dynamics overall... especially with Billy. my god
Went to all 5 shows. Cried on the 5th night.
Every time I hear this song I think of my mom who has passed and I shed a tear or two. She loved this song.
I first saw the Dead in 1979, so I missed this in person. My youth was spent listening to Europe 72 and the other live albums available. This is so beautiful that I am sitting at my computer crying right now. Wow. So powerful.
That was epic. I had to listen to the last 7 minutes left of the song in the grocery store parking lot. I couldn't turn it off.
The Dead at their peak. Amazing era for them.
Good Lord...I love this band!
As I sit here listening to this during this pandemic sweeping the world I can't help but shed a tear! What an appropriate song!!
There's not nearly enough video of the earlier years. It's nice to see you all are addressing that.
I don't disagree with you, but I love how spoiled we are, because we obviously compare the amount of quality audio recordings to the video library. I am so excited that we may be getting a whole lot more. more, bat, more! Cheers!
I sent my 5 kids and 5 grandkids all Grateful Dead shirts with no comment attached. They all thanked me and 3 of them said they listened to the dead for the first time and liked the music.
Its a start..
you changed their lives in such a way...
Unreal! Billy’s drumming is spot on.
He was flying solo. Could no wrong
The dynamism of the solo Billy years really pushed the band beyond stratospheric heights. As a human I love everything Mickey has done in terms of the acceptance and wider appreciation for other cultures and the impact sound has on our lives. But as a drummer, the band from '71-'74 (and to a lesser extent the early years) having just Bill on the kit was just different gravy. Much love and see y'all out there. ✌️ & ❤️.
I never want the song to end!! I love it so much. God bless the Greatful Dead
The Grateful Dead and the Dead Heads are all my soul family! I love all of you!
I was only 5 years old here but i caught them in 87 for the next 8 yrs over 150 shows with my deadhead family damn i miss all of you God Bless
Gonna be hard to top this one! Apocalyptic. That grin of Phil's after his tremendous bass bomb is one of prankster triumph.
I loved when the Dead did their Morning Dew cover. This was amazing. For anyone wondering what it was like seeing the Grateful Dead "on", this is it. Wow!!!
The feeling I get in my bones from the build up to the first incredible solo is incredible. Look at the chemistry between Phil and jerry here. Impeccable version so much soul and emotion, but I guess it doesn’t matter
Anyway
By far my favorite set of Grateful Dead ever.
Beautiful. This music is important
Where to begin.... I'll skip the 10 minute (positive) rant I have about this, to spare everyone hearing someone full of overjoyous happiness. I'll sum in it up in one sentence: Thank you David and The GDF for helping bringing this magic to the people, we all need it, in these crazy times, this is beauty at it's core!
Hear! Hear! You took the words right out of my mouth.
well said
This song fells unsettlingly fitting nowadays.
Wonderful song with a dark story.
The GOAT of American rock bands!
I love the really quiet, reflective part of this song and the pairing with the film shots of audience, the band, Jerry's shadow, the big disco ball. It's really beautiful. Not only did Jerry pull together this performance musically, he edited the film as well. I think he did a great job!
I was 12 years old when their first album came out. My brother who was 5 yrs older told me to listen to it. This song reached deep inside my soul and that was it! I became a lifetime member of the family. ✌
The best days of the dead...The 70's..Man I miss those days.
Man what a great time to be alive, the best years in the history of the planet has to be from 65 to 75, for everything...
my soul mate. my God say that all the time! Wow. Youre so so sooo right! Right on!
Awesome! Was a thrill to be there that night. Unforgettable!!
This is so awesome, I'm gonna show this to everyone at work and convert them to deadheads.
Godspeed
Don't expect too much, and don't be disappointed. You don't need to convert anyone anyway.
Ha. Convert them to deadheads. I like that. Been pumping dead music to my boss'es ears for two years now but I'm not sure he's converted yet. At least he doesn't mind it.
"There's no need for you to be worrying about all those people"
@@jonathonroiko7474 yes! It’s not our job to get the mindless drones on board with this there loss ...
Unbelievable song . The faces in the audience. Oh man . Lucky souls to have been there .
I started going to live Dead shows in December of 72 long beach arena, great show, Dark Star. Crowd pased a inflatable alligator up to Jerry who placed it upon Keith’s piano . Anyone else remember that as crowd chanted Aligator as Jerry beamed. Classic moment. You had to be there , & I was. Still on the bus i got on that I got on that show & never got off no matter what, changed my life in a profound way forever.
