      ruclips.net/video/lNWpECKL-Tg/видео.html
      I viewed the line
      talking a lot About less and less
      And forgetting the love be bring
      as being an expression of two people who just can't communicate anymore but are still fundamentally in love

    First off ... you are so adorable!!! I am so glad that you have been tuned into the Dead. One thing you will probably get in your comment section is that you MUST see the live versions of these songs!! I attended over a hundred Dead shows back in the day. They mix so many styles of music!!! The lyrics are always so interesting. I love rap and hip hop, but the Dead kinda hits that in me!! Keep rockin babe!!

  • @martyw9504

    My favorite Dead song

  • @markschuth8036
    @markschuth8036 4 года назад +3

    Jerry Garcia sings and writes the music. Robert Hunter writes the words. My understanding is the song relates to Jerry's friends trying to confront his heroine use. Jerry is Althea even though he's singing. This song was hunters way of talking to Jerry without confronting him which never worked. There are so many layers to Dead songs.

    • @WaterKreature
      @WaterKreature 3 года назад

      It was as though the song is about me and my reckless selfish ways of addiction, and being dishonest with my self, telling me I need to get my shit together before its to late because the time will come when I have to weigh those things

  • @ChrisP-sc9sf
    @ChrisP-sc9sf 4 года назад +5

    A bus came by and we got on, that's when it all began. Plenty of room for more. You need to see a live performance. Dead and Company is where most of the remaining members play. Highly Recommended. Go to a show. You'll never forget or regret. Namaste.

  • @marysuewardell516

  • @johncoulombe833
    @johncoulombe833 4 года назад +2

    The Grateful Dead formed in 1965 in San Francisco. Members participated in Ken Kesey's acid trip in the bus Further. They were a top band during the Summer of Love in SF in 1967, but the band really started to roll in the 1970s. No band ever toured and performed more than the Dead. I personally saw 13 Dead concerts throughout the Southwest over the years. The band played blues, rock, country, reggae, acoustic, and metal (of sorts). This band is unique and difficult to categorize. Jerry Garcia died in 1995, but the band kept going and is now playing together as Dead and Company. That means it has been performing for 55 years. If there is one album that I would recommend to anyone interested in really hearing the Dead at their best, it would have to be Europe '72. These are lives shows performed at different cities throughout Europe. This album is a genuine classic.

    • @edm781
      @edm781 4 года назад

      Just to clarify, the band did not go on the cross country bus trip with the Pranksters. That was 1964 before they were a band. They did attend and play at most of the acid test parties. But they were not literally riding around in Further more than just some local thrill rides or the ride to hand out flyers at a Bay Area Beatles shows.

    It's cool seeing a young person picking up on the Grateful Dead. The music has so many different flavors. Althea Is 1 of my favorite Dead songs,You need to listen to the live version of the song,there is so much more going on. When you listen to it crank it up and get up on your feet and dance around, It's good for your soul.This song has such a good groove to it, you can't help but move around.

  • @Jeffrie_Baer

    Jerry used to have a volume pedal that would take the emotions up and then crash it all down. Chills would go up and down your spine.

  • @boffo766
    @boffo766 4 года назад +5

    Instead of and album, do a show (or a 2nd set). I recommend - Grateful Dead - Foxboro 7/2/89
    (good sound, kick-ass set list and easily found). Get a flavor for the atmosphere they used to create (that California mellow you're catching with the trippy edge they're known for).

  • @namastecstar
    @namastecstar 4 года назад +1

    The song is basically Hamlet. The first and third and fourth verses, as well as the bridge, are allegory with Hamlet being loosely referenced. But the entire second verse recounts nuremous scenes directly from the play's script.

  • @KavaKavana

    Love the opening breather. They totally look BeeGees GQ on this cover. Great review/reaction. “Reckoning(for the faithful)” is my album recommendation cause it’s yet acoustic. “Live without a net” for one of their most gelling electric eras (the Althea on that is one of my favs)

    I highly recommend you search out the documentary Sunshine Daydream (I think the whole thing is now on RUclips now, but if not at least most of the songs are individually). This is a recording from Veneta, OR 8/27/72, my absolute favorite concert. The film transports you to a different, more peaceful and groovy time.

    Althea has one of those classic Deadlines; "Thinking a lot about less and less
    And forgetting the love we bring" but Ren!!! If you want some real BeeGees vibe the GD has that too--- ruclips.net/video/6jmnASVqZMU/видео.html (the Dead are like a cosmic jukebox playing all Americana music. All. New Orleans (Aiko Aiko) Blues, Funk /Disco (like Shakedown linked here), Jugband [they cover a bunch of Gus Cannon and other Jug band tunes.. but make them mad mad mad like this classic jugband tune Viola Lee Blues ruclips.net/video/wKRs7XpHtLc/видео.html (buckle your seatbelt before you listen to this one!!) and of course that Etta James set ruclips.net/video/G_zKuqHzYks/видео.html You gotta see this one Ren you'll swear you never knew it could be this good!!!!

    Hope you've been listening to some live dead since these vids. The dead was at their peak live in the late 80's in my opinion. The only live album release "live without a net" 89/90 just the best. Set 2. Jerry the man. Although this song in the 1st set.
