Days Between ~ Grateful Dead - 7-27-1994 Riverport Amph., Maryland Heights, MO. (set2-08) 

A song I never want to hear anyone other than Jerry singing.

Here with tears in my eyes another year of the Days Between. Never got to see Jerry, but my god has he had an impact on my life.

such a beautiful riff at 7:39 - god I remember crying at so many shows - even sober - was always an honor to hear this man play

This song is such a fitting send off for such a mighty songwriting duo!! Such beautiful words and I agree with Hunter that Jerry sang it like a prayer!! What a blessing it is to have these moments preserved forever

No chorus, no bridge, only verses that express the experience of life perfectly.

A masterpiece through and through. Proof that music can transcend time and carry emotions through to the next generations.

Not one down vote in any of the comments. Blessings, my friends. Jerry made us ALL better. Opening hearts, minds, the thoroughfare to love immaculate. ❤

Days Between 2024. Thank you Jerry for your part in making me who I am today. Thanks for the ride on the bus since 1969!

I'm glad Jerry is not around to have to witness the times we are now in. So much death, greed and destruction. He checked out too early but managed to escape, leaving behind a long trail of fine words and music. See you in Dead Heaven Jerry!

There were days I know where all we ever wanted was to love and learn and grow... Thank you Jerry for all the days you’ve shared with us❤️

Now it's 28 years since a new live note from the sonic joy that was Jerry. was possible. Today I still miss him and am so grateful for the experience and the technology that brings him to me now

These are definitely the ones that get me teared up. So many roads, ripple, I guess at times a lot of tunes put a lump in my throat. Lucky Ol' Sun....I remember hearing that for the first time at a JGB show and soaked my bandana...I don't know how to explain it but I would think more about my son Instead of Sun, who at the time I hadn't seen in 7 years but I got custody and things turned out OK...Good Lucy and great music were like a golden sunrise in the morning to which I saw a lot of after JGB shows. Then he was gone and more tears came. I feel bad for the people who never got to see jerry and only Dead shows. What a huge difference.

In remembrance of my late husband rest in peace dear one I love you and I'm sorry

Jerry would be 79 today. 25 yrs already. Damn. It's really never been the same

You can feel the wonder joy pain and struggle of life itself in this performance of days between, god its heart wrenching.

Here we are again. Happy birthday Jerry.

As Phil said "achingly nostalgic". Great work filming this, preserved for all to set. The last Hunter/Garcia masterpiece

Oh Jerry! You make me weep. You were an original. The one and only. We still miss you terribly.

He plays and sings from his heart on this and those of us who are lucky enough to catch it, live with him in our hearts forever..thank you Jerry, you gave me love to share in the days between and ALWAYS.

There were days And there were days And there were days between Summer flies and August dies The world grows dark and mean Comes the shimmer of the moon On black infested trees The singing man is at his song The holy on their knees The reckless are out wrecking The timid plead their pleas No one knows much more of this Than anyone can see anyone can see There were days And there were days And there were days besides When phantom ships with phantom sails Set to sea on phantom tides Comes the lightning of the sun On bright unfocused eyes The blue of yet another day A springtime wet with sighs A hopeful candle lingers In the land of lullabies Where headless horsemen vanish With wild and lonely cries, lonely cries There were days And there were days And there were days I know When all we ever wanted Was to learn and love and grow Once we grew into our shoes We told them where to go Walked halfway around the world On promise of the glow Walked upon a mountain top Walked barefoot in the snow Gave the best we had to give How much we'll never know we'll never know There were days And there were days And there were days between Polished like a golden bowl The finest ever seen Hearts of Summer held in trust Still tender, young and green Left on shelves collecting dust Not knowing what they mean Valentines of flesh and blood As soft as velveteen Hoping love would not forsake The days that lie between lie between There were days And there were days And there were days between Polished like a golden bowl The finest ever seen Hearts of Summer held in trust Still tender, young and green Left on shelves collecting dust Not knowing what they mean Valentines of flesh and blood Still tender, young and green Hoping love would not forsake The days that lie between lie between

Jerry these words ring true 2018 brother still holding true... Thanks Robert for all the magic you made happen when you put pen to paper.

The song and somber feel itself makes me cry. When I read the lyrics, it makes me cry. When I hear Jerry's fading voice it makes me cry. And when I hear his heart-wrenching guitar solo it breaks me. I end up in a river of tears and snot!

I remember in RFK 95 hearing this as my buddy was trying to talk to me. Turned to him and said can you STFU!!!! I'm trying to listen to this gem!!! Miss these times!!

What a great haunting song. Garcia/Hunter are being inducted into the Songwriters HOF. Justifiably deserved honor. This is one of many reasons why.

Robert Hunter’s indelible, haunting lyrics that envelope you in the space and time of a lifetime, and the majesterial melodic line and deeply soulful vocal interpretation by Jerry…it rarely got better than this. It burns with quiet fire.

Magic Energy... These are the portal opening consciousness ranges of expression through music. In the future, it will be known that "The Grateful Dead" were at the front and center of the human consciousness evolution... As the post ice age human batch here continues to evolve, hopefully, we will continue to shed our egos completely...

There were days, and there were days And there were days besides When phantom ships with phantom sails Set to sea on phantom tides Comes the lightning of the sun On bright unfocused eyes The blue of yet another day A springtime wet with sighs A hopeful candle lingers In the land of lullabies Where headless horsemen vanish With wild and lonely cries Lonely cries RIP Robert Hunter

The contrasts in life, beautifully captured

why did you leave us jerry? you were and are still loved by so many of us. dammit! I miss you.

Gorgeous. Rest In Peace my friend. You are loved

Was at this show. I remember this song so intimately. It brought tears to my eyes when it flowed over me. I definitely got "Jerry-ed" in this song.

Jerry's goodbye song. I can feel his heart. I keep playing it over and over. Good job Lolo

Oh my..the solo before the final verse. One of those moments that restructure the rest of my day. A side effect unique to Jerry’s music? Been listening for 35 years and these little scraps of magic still have the juice.

RIPeace Jerry! I can remember walking down the boardwalk in Mission Beach in San Diego after hearing he had passed. I felt soulless, tears streaming down my face. It seemed everyone I passed knew the reason, the why.

When all we ever wanted was to love & learn & grow😌❤️‍🔥😭💚⚡️

Despite just one fumbled line, this is an incredibly tight, haunting, intriguing and delicious « Days Between » ! Wonderful ! "and there were days besides when phantom ships with phantom sails set to sea on phantom tides Comes the lightning of the sun on bright unfocused eyes the blue of yet another day a springtime wet with sighs a hopeful candle lingers in the land of lullabies where headless horsemen vanish with wild and lonely cries lonely cries"...

His singing in '94 was often stunning.

Sweet piercing guitar, soothing melancholy vocals, forming a dreamy soundscape.

Pure soul and emotion coming from Jerry and the band.

Sooo bittersweet 💜🎶🎵💜

Never thought this song would be interrupted by two ads ... what a fucking shame people

Missing you Fakir, mussing you Jerry ... your work, your art is living on... shine light on us all.

aug 1 to the 9th stones fall from my eyes instead of tears

Takes me right back to that time as if no time has passed at all.

Miss you every day jer ❤️

I 'discovered' the Dead in 85 or 6 in Frankfurt Germany... via Workingman's Dead. Saw many shows after moving to California in 87. This is the only song that showed magic potential that was really never FULLY achieved. This is very close... sad to see Jerry so frail. But, Damn...the FEELING... RIP Jerry. Miss the twinkle.

The Days Between ... i miss Jerry sooo much !

What a great song👌

Hunter knew everything was winding down, but not all was lost, but limited time for all. Jerry knew it too. This is a beautiful, tragic song.

WOW talk about pure soul Jerry !

Gorgeous. Miss you Jerr.

Magnificent, makes my eyes swell with happy tears

Happy Birthday Jerry!!! as we start to celebrate your day and "The Days Between"

Magnificent God blessed

All we ever wanted, was to live and learn and grow..

Always here for you...a long standing angel now...captain trips looking over from the other side...while he was here in the days between (8/1/42-8/9/95) there was love, wasn't there?...now beyond...and I'm just an old hippie with a guitar whose been on the road a very long time...ready to come home...Jerry's music led me to california in '19...now let's head home to hippieville Bend Oregon, shall we? Further on down the road...look over me like you did 3 years ago...my guardian angel J. Garcia... I maybe crazy...just an old 61 year old sober cat on the ship of fools, so be it...but truth is what it is and it can't be denied...

Happy heavenly birthday Jerry Garcia🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🥳🥳🥳💖

Probably the Dead's most beautiful, haunting lyrics And the song just has an implacable sadness, almost hurts to listen to, but in a beautiful way

4 words I MISS YOU JERRY

A broken angel sings.... Rest in Peace, Hunter/Garcia.

And there where days, and there where days. . . .there where days unknown. . . .

The blue of yet another day

Finest ever seen... days between ~ forever, velvet memories

wow this loud and awesome and yah

I was at this show. ❤❤🎉

Holy s#¡t I miss Jerry!!!⚡️🌹⚡️

thats so fuckin good

So profound and epic, so sad and a catharsis, of sorts. 38 years ago can seem like only a few yesterdays ago, everything changed as much as it has stayed the same. Gone but not forgotten.

I still can't believe he was able to remember so many lyrics...and under the influence

All we ever wanted was to love, learn and grow ❤

Oh my lord! 😢😢😢

Last Garcia, Hunter masterpiece...

Miss you Jerry! 🌈

Amazing....

Encapsulated all of it. Hunter/Garcia

Love You Jerry!

BRAVO jERRY!! fUCKIN' BEAUUUUTIFUL!!!!!

A magic song, strong performance. Looking back in retrospect, and looking at Jerry's obvious physical deterioration and knowing he would be gone a year later, one can get pretty cosmic and sad about this, rightly. But as a musical moment in time, it is a strong performance musically and vocally, no? If he had been healthy at the time and lived another 25 years or more, we'd just be saying "great performance of a great tune!"

who thought the 80's/90/s we would look back and say remeber when.....

fantástico, fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!

30 years > Hunter > Garcia > Days Between > Heads = Everything sacred~ past and present and onward is here....

OMG....Amazing,

I swear to God, if i'm having a boy one day, he's name will be Hunter Garcia

Even a barely coherent Jerry playing sloppily doesn’t diminish the haunting beauty of this. In fact it may even enhance it. I had been at Riverport for the previous night’s show. Regret missing this one.

💜🧡💙💚

AWW, JEEZE!!!

That first line though: Summer flies and August dies The world grows dark and mean. (I'm a sap for loss of innocence motifs) So sad and so good simultaneously

Happy Birthday Jerry!!

Fucking beautiful

the wreath of shining laurel lie upon your shaggy head bestowing power to play the lyre to legions of the dead If some part of that music is heard in deepest dream, or on some breeze of Summer a snatch of golden theme, we’ll know you live inside us with love that never parts our good old Jack O’Diamonds become the King of Hearts. I feel your silent laughter at sentiments so bold that dare to step across the line to tell what must be told, so I’ll just say I love you, which I never said before and let it go at that old friend the rest you may ignore.

Hi there u my old friend ! Haven’t been on to much lately but I enjoyed the Shpee or whatever it is but it blew me away ! Bobby own it ? I know he could if it was his doing ? Love u for being there for me ! ❤️🐇🐰🌹🪽🥲👻🕊️💀☠️⚡️✌️1️⃣😘🥰😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
