Man I am blown away at how clean and tight this is . ESPECIALLY in 94 . If I dident know date I would think this was much earlier. Still popping out gems in 94. THIS IS HOT HOT DAMN.
Yep, there are even some blow-your-mind jams in 95 yet everybody completely freaks out because Jerry has a bunch of moments so they just discard the whole year. It must be so boring up just listen to 74-77 85 89 and 90. I mean, at least after awhile. I really like 94-95 because when they get it together it was so cool and doesn't sound like any other time.. There's this Jam in April of 95 I want to say it's the Birmingham show where they do Matilda and they have a third drummer playing with them holy s*** that jam is great!!! And then there's a recording from one of the Seattle 95 shows, it's not the famous scarletfire where he uses the whammy pedal, yes that is awesome, but I want to say it's the night before, they released a night and played it on the Grateful Dead hour. I thought that s*** was 91 when I first heard it was so good... so yeah, glad this is posted! I want to say there's some crazy weird unusual segue they did like this in 93 with a Cassidy sandwich and some other song. Someone's got to help me out on that... oh my gosh, and the Terrapin Jam from the 93 Deercreek show is unreal amazing
@@matthewmaurysmith2486 Not to mention the songs that came out of the 90's. Some of my all time favorites Days Between, Lazy River Road, So Many Roads, Black Muddy River
This is the kind of stuff I absolutely LOVE about the last 12 months or so of Jerry's playing in the dead. Yeah, he had carpal tunnel and untreated diabetes and we all know about the flubs and all that stuff. But when he wasn't feeling like s*** and could actually feel where his fingertips were, hevput just as much heart and soul and his essence into the songs as he ever did at any time. Not to mention, Vince is at his absolute best during this last period and his midi keyboard preset sounds are classy and perfect. People are completely surprised when I say this but I really mean that some of my favorite music that they ever played comes from these times and I can be very specific about which songs and which shows if anyone cares. A Friend of mine and I did a project a few years ago where we listened to every single show 95 and 94 and took notes. We then went on to do 93-92 and we've taken a bunch of notes... and I was going to write a book. But what he has done is absolutely amazing. He made like a three to four-hour playlist of the unusual moments, overlooked and forgotten jams, and just all the cool unique versions of songs that were somewhat different or a typical during the last tours. When I listened to his 94 playlist I was completely blown away. After many many years of listening to this band, I had never EVER heard them in that way. Even after listening to them intently since age 10 and the year 1985, hearing that compilation has been a revelation in understanding the dead and I dare anyone to listen to one of these playlist from the last two years and then walk away and say that those years are forgettable and they sucked and Yadda yadda all the trendy thoughtless stuff people say about post brent or late Jerry. Although, this playlist is still secret right now I'm ;-) Problem is it's all AUD stuff right now and I can't figure out that old back door trick to access the individual vbr files on archive. if we could get the soundboards to this tracks and redo it, well I'll tell you that this track makes the cut
Matthew I’d love if you could share that w me…I’m so with you. My years were 81-95…would be awesome…hey if you like HMU here or whatever. Would love to to reminisce and all …🙏💜😎
I am sure what you are saying is true, Matthew, about the quality of the best moments of late Dead. I rarely listen to shows from after 1980, partly because my time is limited and there is plenty of material from the years I like most. But I think it would be good listen to highlight playlists from pretty much any year. In a way, I think many people who are dismissive of the later years are in a situation similar to that larger group of people who pretty much dismiss the band altogether. In all periods there was dross mixed in with the diamonds; I doubt they could have been more consistent than they were given the way they operated, but they had to work that way to produce what they did. I have always thought that many people would change their minds if they really listened to some of the highlights, and understood just how good - great, even - the Grateful Dead could be.
1990's are definitely hit and miss....but the hits are fantastic as you describe well. I've listened to every show from the 90's sort of the same way you did. (also did the 70's and 80-85). 1994 was a big resurgence year for GD. 1992 really fell off and then Jerry was sick. 1993 was sort of rebuilding and had lots of highlights. Those included some of the fun new Beatles tunes thrown in the mix. 1994 the band really hit stride again. The Jerry lapses were minimal (at least for the time period) and the rest of the band was really strong and in top form. However, 1995 fell off again and then done.
I guess you refer to him missing the little signature lick at the beginning of Music Never? Oh, who cares about that. Listen to him segue into sugaree and how he plays it Fuckingawesome. Pretty sure that's the point of this. You do "have to try a little bit harder" than that in 94-95 but when you do you can become very rewarded.
I went this show from japan
It is miracle in my life
LOVE Vinces backup vocals with Bobby! SO freaking 🔥 So clean. So in sync. People sleep on my man Vinny!
Greatest Music Never Stopped in my opinion. The reprise is one of the greatest reprises of all time for me. Who said that 90's Dead didn't kick ass??

People sleep on the 90's. It's their loss.

Poor Jerry - is he even playing on this?
I guess you refer to him missing the little signature lick at the beginning of Music Never? Oh, who cares about that. Listen to him segue into sugaree and how he plays it Fuckingawesome. Pretty sure that's the point of this. You do "have to try a little bit harder" than that in 94-95 but when you do you can become very rewarded.
He's not playing
Dude are you hard of hearing? He is absolutely killing it here.
@matthewmaurysmith2486 What about that Music reprise? He absolutely kills it. Jerry rocked until the very end 🔥
