    I am the same age as Bonnie Raitt and listened to her and John Prine (RIP💜) sing this together so many times. It is really a tribute to the 2 of them to see the next generation pick this song up. I also am a longtime grateful dead devotee and I love seeing Bobby Wier and John Meyer together now. This young man is an extraordinary talent in the old-school style with that delicious taste of salt.

      IMHO and I'm quite sure JM will tell you the same, John Prine and Bonnie Raitt built the mine shaft and pulled the big nuggets. Tedeschi Trucks band found some really big beautiful nuggets as well. JM is getting some cocoa pebbles here. I love cocoa pebbles. But let's not pretend his vocal approaches Bonnie or Susan. Or even Derek's guitar, yet I know JM can rip. But, go seek and you will find.

      He's only gotten better too since playing with Dead & Co, I've seen him 3 times in 3 different states on 3 different tours in Australia and every time I've been amazed at how much he's improved as a guitarist since the last time. And also remember this particular performance was when he'd just started touring again after recovering from the granuloma. His voice and his control over it are now better than ever in my opinion. This Ziggo Dome performance is my favourite live set he's ever done. I mean AGT and WTLI are spectacular but there was just something about his vibe on this night that was different, he was just super happy it appears to me and seemed to really love the crowd there, and it was abundantly evident in his free playing, the Walt Grace/Dreaming With a Broken Heart is chill-inducing.for those who haven't had the fortune of checking it out!

    Man he makes that guitar do exactly what his brain is thinking in real time. That's incredible. I'm sure some of that solo was done prior but I'm wondering he prolly improvised some of that right there and it's just all on point when it needs to be . He's a legend.

He was always very heavily blues influenced, now you hear blue grass and even some jazz elements in his playing...and its alot more free form.

    He didn't write it, but this is another of JM's story-telling songs. I'm not sure what the message is though, except it is very sad. Shows compassion for the human condition, breaks my heart. JM points out sadness just by recognizing a song like this. Gotta love him! It's his sensitive talents and he brings us along. This is why he is a Master, the Man and the King ❣🌟💎👑

    I see so many amazing singers, performers, singing with their eyes closed. Why do they always complain about that on singing competitions like American Idol? I used to like to sing with my eyes closed when I was little.
