I dunno beg to differ.. Goes from a double twist in the sky to a roller coaster to hell real quick. Try Clementine best audio play on the planet. Visuals we used to put in the store window to attract people. Almost like being there just without the mud and being hassled by police. 😆
@@stefanschleps8758Wait are you sure? Can you see that too or is it just the acid? And if you want to see something trippy look up the Pink Floyd AI videos.. Melts the soul off your face
Keith's playing at Cornell was great ... I love how high in the mix he is for the entire concert. His solo on "They Love Each Other" was awesome, and those chords he lays down in stephen are top notch
Good blond opitiated hash and one or two European cigarettes, Few hundred hours of live Dead on the reel to reel and a few hundred feet of live Pink Floyd ~ Mmhhhh 🤤Happy place
Let the haters hate! Mean time I'll be on the floor near the mixing board if you need me.. don't come looking I may get lost. And anyone who hates it has never listened to it.
I never see anyone point out how otherworldly Jerry's extended jam on NFA is. I have listened to it 100s of times and it always blows my mind as being one of the all time peaks and valleys jam. It is a true musical composition. Jerry comes in real subtle with some overdrive and phaser, and then it just builds from there. The tension and release is top shelf. There is that peak he rises to where he just sprinkles out torrents of notes and then gets into that wicked bend in the upper register and just unleashes an emotional peak that, to this day, blows my brain wide open. He then comes off it, as if he is catching his breath, and gets real subtle again going for larger amounts of notes and amazing phrasings, finally concluding in that run of notes that seems to go on forever before bringing it back into the basic rhythm. I know I said a lot there, but I feel that strongly about it and, being a professional guitarist, can just analyze what he is doing and always find it completely mind-boggling.
and as the hit melts on your tongue, the rest is history......hopefully Jerry hanging with Gregg today, a little Squire on bass and Bonzo slowing to the beat. And a mad keyboard by many past members.
got this on tape in about 1989. a friend gave me a bong hit and a Maxell XL II w/ this set on it. i put it in my Walkman and rode my bike in the sunshine. Life affirming afternoon😎
Yeah, those Maxell XL II. Wow. I haven't thought about those in years!!! Definitely the best cassettes to use for recordings! Between '88 & '91 my older brother & I had gathered about 50 Live/Dead cassettes. Well, in '91 we decided we wanted to see a Dead Show on the West coast. And also figured
I attended my 40th hs reunion this summer...ONLY CLASS MATE I wanted to see was the VALEDICTORIAN who said f it and followed the Dead instead....Leslie where were you? Could care less about the lawyers, doctors and the rich but you DID THE DO!
I knew some brothers who were the runners up for wrestling in the 80's Olympics. Their choice was go to the Olympics, I think in '84, or go on tour. '84 was a great year! 😅
I wish I was born in a time where I could buy a lil van and follow the dead tours. That lifestyle would be what I need right now. My dad used to tell me stories of hanging out at camp sights with Deadheads, he was never one himself, but said they were the nicest people on planet Earth. I know theres the Grateful Shread and Dead and Company, but they dont have the same scene from what I've gathered. Hopefully once the world heals a little bit from this, something beautiful will come out of it
You can find positive music out there but you have to dig sometimes. Nobody can replace the Grateful Dead and the experience of the city that followed them. It was an egalitarian but capitalist society. They fed each other and provided what they needed. They had their own economy. Everywhere was music 24/7
Man , i love the dead so much. The connection is unbelievable. I was born the morning his beautiful soul passed. My mom and her friends had said I high ficlved Jerry on my way down and his way up :)
that's truly outtasight girl!! connection is strong - i was a hippie chick from the sixties. actually i stayed over with the Dead one weekend. so, i loved your post and wish i was young too.
I was at a show at three rivers about 40 years ago. They came out bad. Stumbling and mumbling with roadies and set hands. Bad energy build up in the crowd..Bumbled through 1st n 2nd set. 3rd set they came out ON FIRE! there was electricity on that stage that night. I can't emphasize how hard they came out swinging. Talk about a half time pick up. Man.. Good times. And the music never stopped!
Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia had an amazing relationship when it came to making with the music. Especially some of Hunters lyrics set me back a minute.
Awesome upload! Thanks so much! I'm sittin here and groovin and I'm watching these graphics and I'm nodding my head and realizing that I've been that high many times back in those days - the acid was real good in the 70s!
Music doesn't get any better. I still remember when I got the BettyBoard of this show and was blown away! I think its all I listened to for days!! God, that early May run in '77 was sublime!
"This was the best show they ever did!" This is by far the most common comment about them that I ever see/hear. Every single one of them is absolutely correct. Did this touch your heart? Did this touch your soul? Have you passed this on to the rest of humanity? If so then you are absolutely correct.
I agree with Natalie. I saw the Dead at a number of venues in the early '70s. Every show that I saw was the best show they ever did. You had to be there to experience the wholeness of the experience. It is difficult to express how the band, the crowd and the building were all in sync, rocking to the greatest rock'n roll band of all time. They were at there best in front of a live audience. It was a contact high...In July of 1972 my girlfriend and I saw them at the Paramont in Seattle. We were dancing the night away in the balcony and the balcony itself was rocking to the music. Thank you Jerry RIP.
Beware, Youth: if this bug bites you, you might never be the same. However, I'd argue there's a whole lot of peace & love in this community, and all are welcome. Y'all take extra good care of each other 💜🌈💙
One of THE greatest shows the Dead ever played. Legendary Cornell 5/8/77. I was lucky enough a couple years back to score a pristine copy of this show in it's entirety. The "thing that happens at the end of Morning Dew might just blow your fucking mind. Yeah, it's that amazing, and to this day I'm still not sure exactly where that sound comes from. ?????
Ah the garden wet with rain morning dew yes I Rastafari Tucson Arizona Sonoran Desert keep on keeping on San Rafael Marin County San Francisco California yes I
Dang! Saint Stephen is of my favorite songs and this was a great performance. Amazing job synching the evolving fractals to the rhythm and amplitude. Wow.
I do like the version with Bob Ross on her Monica and John cipollina on guitar yeah not fade away man you know our love will not fade away yes I Rastafari Tucson Arizona Sonoran Desert keep on keeping on
I spent many summer days and nights at Grateful Dead shows and I have to say some of them were the highlights of my youth. The entire experience was so unique. I can still feel it when I listen to this.
Much gratitude going out to Ms or misses, mr. Nutty R for your awesome graphics once again, you never disappoint. Thanks for all of your Dead, life wouldn't be the same without the music! Not fade away,😁, Sooooo real! Cant believe I just found this, thankx again. ☮️
Actually, Garcia played a Travis Bean Stratocaster knockoff from summer of '76 through '77. He returned to the Doug Irwin (Wolf) guitar in early '78. And I don't think there was any question of whether a stock guitar would stand up to his playing.
L-L-L-OVE this live set. usually a big fan of the early 70's dead, but def one of my favorite saint stephen>fade away combos. The only one i have to say i love more than this is the 2/13/70 filmore show. Much love! thanks for this.
Most of the purple microdots I ran across were NOT very good or just bunk. I mostly enjoyed the vials of liquid or those "tour sheets". Unperforated white blotter, just tear some off, eat it & enjoy. One night we were debating on if we were feeling anything yet. Sandy, my brother's girlfriend said "No, I'm not feeling anything yet." And I was smoking a cig and was starting to get that thin saliva taste/feeling in my mouth. And was about to say "Yeah, I'm starting to feel it". And Sandy looks at my bro and says "You look like a duck with blue lips". And as if that was not funny enough, I look over at my bro and he did!! He looked like a duck with blue lips!! And I was like "OK Sandi, your NOT feeling anything yet!!!
I give this as antidote to friends a lot. Thanks. Gave it to my son for his 17th birthday in a card with the link hand printed inside. He found almost everything else.... kept in reserve. sweet
I know it is en Vogue to say that 77 was not their best year. maybe it wasn't. but one thing could be said, their rhythm section was succinct. more than any other year. they were funky and tight. Jerry was always on top of his game. he may have forgotten the words but he never forgot how to play. bill, and Mickey, and Phil, together in 1977 better than any English band ever. true American legends!
Spring 90 was a perfect tour. 89 was just an amazing year for shows too. 87 had a chart topping album, a summer tour following months of rehearsing with Dylan. JGB on Broadway for ten magical nights. Three sets on NYE to end the year. I saw ten shows that year, I was 18 and fresh out of high school.
May 1977, and really the entire Blues for Allah/Terrapin Station era of the Grateful Dead prove that Jerry Garcia was perhaps had the smoothest, slickest, most beautiful melodic phrasings during his improv solos. Cornell NFA is definitely smoother and funkier, Englishtown, the labor day reunion for the Dead was a different thing altogether, both are my two favorite NFAs BY FAR - Englishtown is just straight hard rock jam from Jerry for 20+ minutes into Truckin, the Cornell version is a funk groove fest of magic.
Thank you, this is wonderful! Really cool shit! I had a few bootlegs with this incredible st.-nfa-Stephen jam but I never heard this show before it's Niiice!!!
there's only one thing to say about this video, and I would but my mind is blown!!! keep 'em comin' - oh and by the way I am a serious lover of the Dead. i'll share my story some other time..i subscribed and there's no better compliment!
my whole life started right with this tune, i think i was16, never to be the same, thank god for nutty and Rob Eaton! thanks for the memory lost :) makes me so sad though, the scene died with Jerry, for me
... for God so loved the world......♥ ॐ No bullshit. Just us human beings in this time. As it was then. And -- as it will be. Our love for the future right NOW...? Please? C'mon. For my Mother, Betty and my Sister, Star. And dance and hope for me & my fella, Zach. With every bit of hope you have ..? Anyone?♥
Boy, this jam, different genre, different instrument, but Jerry turns into Coltrane for a while and then back again. I saw New Haven on this tour. As they say, 77' "it's all good."
