Grateful Dead - Cassidy - 10/31/1980 - Radio City Music Hall 

Watching jerry play is like seeing a friend that you never met. Familiar but so distant

My first introduction and first show got on the bus and never looked back

Just one of Bobby's many masterpieces🎶👍

I love how the jam gets so discordant so quickly, and then boom, back in with the beautifully melodic "flight of the seabirds...".

LOVE Brent's harmonies on this tune! For years after first hearing this on Reckoning, I thought "Wow, Donna sure has settled down and is making the band better" I was wrong of course.

My favorite Cassidy ...this was a good couple nights back then ..

Can you imagine Jerry n Bob around a campfire singing songs??

Drive that bus 🚌 bro, we're all with you ❤😂🎉😢!!!

Jerry thrived on "never playing a song the same way twice" ... brilliant ❗

All I want to say is… Thank you. Music heals my soul everyday

Love the part at 5:32 where Bobby shouts at Jerry to get out of the jam and back to the chorus. Shows how much he grew into his leadership role, and even moreso into the next decade as Jerry declined.

classic & timeless=] Let the words be yours- I am done with mine, one of the greatest hooks in modern lyrics.

I have a cousin that looked exactly like Bob ...in college his hair was exactly like bobs ..he sold weed out of a backpack in the mid 1980s...he had some incredible stuff back then ...😂

Man, Jerry from 4:45 on.... he looked like he was driving that Cadillac! He was way in there, man.

5:35 mark, i love Bobby's subtle indication to Jerry to let loose the seabirds!

GROW THE SCORCHED GROUND GREEN!!!

SO grateful for all the acoustic sets we have preserved. Wish we we had even more of them...

Radio City Music Hall. Midtown Manhattan. A concert being recorded for a record and video. Jerry: Which one are we doing? Bobby: Cassidy. Jerry: Oh!

for every father and his daughter, be blessed by this song of deep connections lost and found!

My God.... what a beautiful time in the world of music!!!! God bless Jerry and Brent.jammin in heaven with all my killer b brothers

Gotta love Neal Cassidy.........

praise the heavens for jerry n the boys

I love this song and this band !

Oh, Yeah.....Cassidy!!! YOU ROCK Guys!!😀😀

Anyone out there old enough to say they saw this broadcast on MTV?? I did. I also own 2 copies of Reckoning, the original released album.

That is one fantastic version of a fantastic tune.

That jam though. Wow.

And to think, this is the closest thing we have to an MTV Unplugged performance from this band.

grace from god of a soliloquy of musical talent to enjoy

Simply sublime ❤️💀✌️🎶

I was there

I feel very fortunate to have been at shows during this timeframe on the West Coast. Every show was phenomenal.

Damn Phil is SILKY SMOOTH!!

These videos are great. I appreciate the close up shots of everyone. We couldn't see any of that from the Balcony! 💥🧨💥🧨💥

Amazed

The damn jams

Is it just me or does that Bob Weir fella seem to be working out?? Understatement of the Century... Go BOBBY GO!!!

My cat Cassidy loves this song for obvious reasons 💗

In this world, but not of it.

Hey!

yes

Great

I just have to say: Jerry Garcia wasn't even 40 years old yet. The man aged like all get-out. It's sad. He died prematurely

The way jerry pulls off notes is awesome. To my ears there's this perfect kind of hesitation it's nano but to me it makes it Jerry...just unperfect enough to be perfect. I feel like his tone is coming off the note vs at striking

#ugottalisten2b4udie #gratefuldead #cassidyhutchinson Speaks his name though you were born to me #Cassidy Come wash the nighttime clean 🧑‍⚖ Come grow the scorched ground green

Jerry

Bobby with feathered hair. Oh god 😂

Dean Moriarty on the road baby in a Cadillac I could tell by the look on your face he's coming back

Good Job CIA

Neil Cassidy...

Correct me if I'm wrong. But was this Brent's first night with the band?

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. About a very beautiful person - Neal Cassady. When are they going to correct the spelling?

Should name an ice cream after this. Maybe vanilla diversity.

I never understand why people (fans) who are so devoted to the music of a band drown their playing out with their hollers and screams.

Haha haha peace Infinitiv 8888 on the road

Bobby trippin' here?
