Nearly 60 years after Bob Weir helped form the eclectic rock group The Grateful Dead in Palo Alto, Calif., the music of the Dead is being adapted for the concert hall. In this extended interview, correspondent John Blackstone talks with Weir, now 75, about the Dead's music, adapting it to performance by a symphony orchestra, the curious life of a song "critter," and the unfinished business resulting from bandmate Jerry Garcia's passing.

Bob Weir and his mates, who we recognize as the Grateful Dead, are the creative definition of America. The ragged glory. The inventive free thinking. The urban and rural musical representation of our history, folklore, and traditions. A business enterprise that keeps its promise to its customers and works for their best interests. A visualization of the true idea of personal freedom. Whether you like the Grateful Dead or not, there is something for everyone in the music of the Grateful Dead. If you look through the cultural lens, Bob and his mates are as American as there is.

@barefootarts737 Год назад

When he says he feels it in his bones, he's describing how we can use our physical body as a way of creating and then triggering memories. Especially in our older age. When you move your body your whole mind comes alive. You can literally forget everything in your life and still remember how to play a music instrument flawlessly or dance like a pro. Keep your bodies moving folks.

I have seen hundreds of concerts from, Dizzy Gillespie, Deep Purple, Arlo Guthrie, Ray Charles, Aerosmith, The Who, The Ramones, David Bromberg, George Thorogood, Neil Young, Count Basie, Little Feat and tons more. But seeing Bob and Jerry and Phil and Bill and the rest was just a whole different thing. Got to see the Dead about 50 times, not nearly enough. You had to be there to understand, can't be explained. Live music is where it's at, and the Grateful Dead were the masters of the live event.

I let him keep one, and kept one, appreciating his honesty. free stuff from the GRATEFUL DEAD. I now have a T-shirt which I ordered after seeing it here. it's a black T w/ Bertha, who glows in the dark. great Halloween T. too cool for school.

@@MDavidG1 There would be no way to verify the claim, and it's probably not accurate. HOWEVER, Bob has been playing with some form of the Dead since he was 16 -- Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions, The Warlocks, and then The Dead. Consider that he continues to perform to stadium crowds right up until 2022. I would venture that if you could somehow measure actual time on stage -- and total number of fans -- from 1964 to the present, Bob Weir would be somewhere in the top 100. He may indeed be top 10 or even number one. The spirit of J Davis' comment is accurate, but yes, there is no way (at least I don't think there is) to actually measure the total number of fans.

I cant think of enough nice things to say about Bob Weir. Every day I thank my lucky stars that I was alive at a time when the Grateful Dead were roaring through the US all the time. There were good shows and bad. The bad shows were good and the great shows took you to a place that normal folks will never understand. Jerry was at times inconsistent as he struggled, but when Jerry was hurting Bobby pulled them along. The common misconception about the Dead was that they were a party band. There was definitely a party happening, but the reason the Dead is still so popular today is because the songs are absolutely fantastic. They cared about their craft and they cared about how it sounded live to the fans. RIP Jerry, Pig, Keith, Brent , Robert Hunter and John Barlow. Your music lives on . Thank you for a real good time.

We love you Bob! I saw the dead April 5th 1995 in Birmingham Alabama a few months before Jerry died, it was a life changing experience ❤

@scott83074 Год назад

I got a tear in my eye when he was talking about the band and audience relationship. I have seen any of them since Jerry passed but it's so true the music floats above the room. I'd give anything to be at 1 more show...sweaty hippies, peculli, pot smell,phil zone/ 💣 ,girls spinning....There is NOTHING like a Grateful Dead concert!

I have been listening to Bob Weir and the Grateful Dead since 1971 and I still love their music and it's been the soundtrack to my life! I just simply love Bob Weir and all the people who have played with the band! There's a spiritual connection to the Grateful Dead for me. They were meant to be here from the beginning ( borrowed from and love ELP!) God bless and Peace on Earth!

@paulaepstein9051 Год назад

Listening and seeing since ' 73. From the Beginning is a personal fav thanks for the shout out to ELP!

@lionheartmerrill1069 Год назад

Me too, 70--71. I saw the Dead at the Hollywood Bowl. Saw Bob with Kingfish 3/16/76 at the Golden Bear/Huntington Beach & he would remember that night, long story.

I think he may recognize that we're first and foremost, Spirit Beings (temporarily wearing meat suits), and some have a strong ability to hear messages from Spirit- messages from our Spiritual Home. Music saves many of us so why not musical inspiration? I believe all brilliance is inspired. God bless you!

Bob Weir has about a year on me, and within that experiential context what he says strikes a certain common chord. I appreciate how he describes his experiences with Jerry Garcia and the rest of the Grateful Dead. Potentially, that refers to All of Us.

@bethseptember8 15 дней назад

Glad the music is being aporeciated to this day. We have known this all along. Bob has endured and danced through all the years ..

My dad bought my older brother the first Dead album back 1966 or 67. Listening to it in those old cassete players driving from Lawrenceville N.J. up to go snow skiing in Maine. I was like 11. Then a few years later when i was 13 my bro took me to see them at the Fillmore East when they where doing their Athem of the Sun album, they came on at like 11 p.m and played till sunrise. Wow. Talk about pro jamming at its best. Now 55 years later they are still the BEST JAM BAND. PEACE UP ALL U 🎶DEADHEAD'S🎶 NOW LIVING IN BALI. 🌴✌🏄‍♂️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♂️✌🌴
