Tim Malloy He really dominates throughout the entire two songs. Garcia is clearly studying him intently as Weir directs the course of the song, and Phil is also paying very close attention and cueing off him.
Weir might be the most unique rhythm player in rock. His accents, tempo, "off" notes. Unlike anyone else. Had the pleasure of seeing him 2 years ago on the Bob Weir & Wolf Bros tour and it was awesome
Nothing more American than the Grateful Dead. Then again, they seem to be relatable to EVERY human experience no matter where you're from. They played for their lives and our lives as well. God bless em!

You're really silly. Not one member of the band would want you to be all silly-patriot-twat. And no right-thinking person on the planet would want it either. Get real.
You were right the first time - they were the living embodiment of Americana… in many ways, not all of them good, but at the core there was the best value we aspire to: freedom.
This is a pretty special rendition of this medley! Very musical all around; everyone shines here! This may be my favorite performance of China-Rider ever.
It's amazing that the band manages to squeeze so much new, great and inventive material out of a song vein that seemed to have been thoroughly explored 20 years earlier!😃
Hell ya I was there my second trip up to Shoreline The vibe is still alive dancing my way back to my mail order Loge seat with a micro brew in my hand honestly could not imagine a finer place at any other time in my life
CRAZY ChinaRider, holy cow it's good! I really miss seeing Jerry, Bobby, Phil, etc, and getting to hear this combo, followed by Terrapin and then the killer Dew, while they played outdoor on a hot summer night! The mighty Grateful Dead 😊
I love that around 2:11 when Jerry tries to go to MIDI for the second part of the solo you can practically see his brain say "where are the trumpets? There are supposed to be trumpets. " Then around 2:43, right before the 3rd verse, he summons Parrish with a finger wave to fix it. Garcia plays a holding pattern until Parrish fixes it around 5:37, then plays ANOTHER round to do an on- stage soundtrack with the MIDI, then draws it out, THEN they do the climax before I Know You Rider! This is like 3 transitions and subsequently AWESOME!
Other versions this same year have the midi trumpets at that point of the solo. And trumpets are the main sound once Parrish fixes the midi a during the jam
I remember once at a show in 89 (or there abouts) at the second I wish I was a headlight the lights swung out into the crowd and the crowd's response was legendary. One of the best feelings I ever experienced at a Dead show. Someone said Jerry did a little hop.
t'was a special moment for sure, I saw Jerry do a little hop playing Dear Mr Fantasy in Irvine Meadows in the 80's .. t'was very special moment for me too.
At times the lack of Garcia's camera angle is excruciating. But holy shit it's so good. He absolutely schools them all at the transition crescendo. Like MJ dunking on the whole team one by one. Priceless.
I can honestly say... It's awesome to hear crystal clear individuality of them playing. When I/ we were there, it was real time. The feeling was awesome. Then had got a dubbed 4th generation tape that wasn't clear. But we could tell difference...
This is my favorite rendition. Shoreline 90 my all time fave shows. G.D were simply on fire and they looked so comfortable with F.X never do i tire with anything in this era..
Always wondered what Bill and Mickey talk about..looks like just casual conversation.."How's the kids Bill?".."They're good..started school this week"......
One show, my girlfriend sat on the bench with Bob and Jerry during Drums. She said Jerry was telling Bob about a cartoon he saw on TV that afternoon. LOL
@@woodzieniles5373 That actually sounds realistic. Want to know why? Because famous musicians spend most of their time pent up in hotel rooms on tour when they're not home.
Jose Villarreal especially the Dead. Kind of sad, in a way.. The woman I was talking about was friends with the folks at Winterland Productions. They sent her backstage passes for each tour. She offered them to me too, but since I wasn't a beautiful woman or have enough "supplies" to share, I felt like I'd just be in the way backstage. "Hi Jerry! I like the way you play guitar." 😑 As much fun as the coliseum hallways were, now I kind of wish I would have gone back and met them at least once. When I'd ask, Monica, my girlfriend, told me bits about what each member did backstage. Mickey mostly hung out by himself away from everyone and constantly drummed on a practice pad. Phil was her favorite. They got along the best. He was the only one to wake up early like her. Sometimes, he'd meet her for breakfast at the hotel dinning room. She went to more shows than me. I went to a LOT, but after a week or so, I would miss my woods and animals, and head back home. I still have a stack of passes. I keep them in my "Go to Heaven" LP.
Excellent, but for me, I always prefer the early 70s much more for this tune and many other from that particular repertoire. It was such a showcase for Bobby and one of his very few leads. Not sure if it was by choice, but he’s WAY scaled back by this point and Jerry has all but taken over the lead in the transition section. And nothing against Brent or even Donna when she did it, but when it was the three part harmony from Bob, Jerry and Phil, I just can’t get enough.
@@GratefulDead5050, thank you for asking. This kid (starting at the middle of the top of the lawn) runs in Birkenstocks at full speed down the middle of the lawn. He's amazingly weaving around groups of Deadheads sitting on blankets. I'm pretty much jaw-on-the-ground watching him. I'm also tripping hard, so part of me is not even sure it's really happening. I see him rapidly approaching a section of wall-to-wall blankets/people: 50 feet wide by 30 feet long, about 100 feet from the bottom of the lawn and the roughly 2-foot high steel fence separating the lawn from reserved seating. There is NO way this kid is going to weave around that section of people, and he's too close to them (going too fast) to stop without taking a serious tumble. About 10 feet before that wall of Deadheads, he leaps into the air. He goes soaring over their heads, bicycle-kicking his arms and legs. He lands about 5 feet in front of the wall of Deadheads, manages to slow down, and finishes the run without hitting the steel fence (and having never hit a single person). Stunned, I look over to my right. I make eye contact with an older Deadhead. He looks like a modern wizard (bald on top, long gray/white fringe hair, longish white mustache, soul patch, round glasses). He also watched the kid's run, sees the look on my face, and can tell how hard I'm tripping. He matter-of-factly says to me, "Yeah dude, that DID just happen." 🤩 -Andy
@jonathanandrewwatkinsartpoetry 😆 What a story! Thats amazing and hilarious all in one. I totally got a visual, no pun intended. I genuinely appreciate Your telling us about it, Andy. Stay Kind
@jonathanandrewwatkinsartpoetry Certainty can't outdo your Crouching Tiger Hidden Hippy story, or desire to...But this reminds me of a hilarious (true) story I tell when I get the chance: My Older Brother and Cousin were tripping one night and sitting on the couch TV when my Cousin really started getting heavy visuals. My Brother appeared to be unphased, however, so he didnt say anything. A few minutes later, the TV they had been staring at proceeded to grow arms and legs, then hopped off of the cabinet, politely opened the door and walked out into the Texas night. My cousin thought he was going nutso and sat there speechless. My Brother, who was sitting right next to him, cooly looked in his direction and said to His surprise: "Are you gonna go get your TV?" 😆 🤣 😂 Thanks again.
Hey Everybody. Non-Show Seeing Barron Isle Enthusiast having an August Sun 11th of 2024 . .. . In Georgia. Party on all that partaking in happiness and joy. Love the Dead.
Unfortunately I never saw them live but this is the next best thing! A good friend of mine just turned me on to these two for the price of one fabulous song(s)!! Ty !! 💠💠💠 That bass line is marvelous and carries the groove along - what a Happy Hopeful Sound, the sax Oh, My, 🌻🌻🌻
@@rayboden1264 “It IS?” 🤭 I feel like the village idiot as I looked for the sax musician and didn’t see one and guessed - wrong! ha! Jerry’s got a special kinda magic while strumming those strings - how does he do it? David Sanborn the jazz sax player passed this week at age 78 & I’ve been listening to him a lot. R.I.P. David 🎷🤍🤍🤍
Sorry( not) but here I am again😉, but I here I am again! That guy there with that there guy with the grey hair can sure play that there gee-tar there can't he? Woooo doggie!
My favorite version for sure, lots of people don't like Jerry's midi but i think it works well here, his playing is top notch, combine that with Phil and Bobby's excellent rhythm and you got one of the best jams of '90
People comment on the sound or the mix, that's because by this time their mojo was on fire.....If you were there like I was, you know.....Sound 89-90 was off the chain!!!!!
It’s a GOOD THING Jerry, Bob, and Phil “ pulled out of it around 9:30, the drummers faces looked like they were about to melt off!! Lmao!! Take a good look!!!
