Captain’s got his hair pulled back like a psychedelic Mozart. What a wizard that man was (and still is 😉). Never will there be another band to grace the stage like the Dead. Never! 💀⚡️🌹
Stephen Marley recently said in an interview that Bob Weir really reminded him of his father I love Bobby man but yeah I bet you he's loving that is a pretty cool compliment y'all
No one does Rooster like the Dead..Real blues, its all about Brent for me, love when he takes the verse n nails the solo..Good example of Brent era Dead.
Captain frets yo ol Jer-bear was a virtuoso musician he kinda liked to keep it mellow but he has got them chops that are more than mere notation in a chord or scale that he was taught or learned his riffin style He must have hung around with some Louisiana New Orleans musicians when he was a kid Something that never was able to verify but I had to be some kind of voodoo to have lit his flame I still remember where I was the time of day How overcast the sky was in TN the day back hearing Jerry Garcia passed away I never as a kid was the biggest dead head around but growing up on the hippy farm back in tn You couldn't help but feel connected to the sound of GD and the emotions I felt was when he died I have since played organ and piano in more than one dead cover band and am well acquainted with learning most of the repertoire or roster of songs Among those Little Red rooster was the main song I would be tasked with singing
Yeah between riffin on the organ and shooting some Persian I imagine he was plumb Skippy Brent was the best keyboard for the GD making the Hammond organ scream with exactly the correct overdrive level to weaponize that som'a'buck
Fanfriggintastic!!! Oh, I am sooooo grateful to have come across this today!! Bless you, and God bless the Grateful Dead!!! ❤ (I love it all, from Bobby's 1980s short shorts, to the look on Mickey's face with his mullet in a ponytail, to Tigerlily, to Brent stealing the face off the show around the 3:40 mark!!!) *Smile, smile, smile :)
Real music. Real musicians. No fluff, no explosions, and no background dancers causing a spectacle. Just real gifted musicians laying it down and that's it! The Dead loved doing this and there will never be anything like them and the joy they brought ever again.
I love Brent more and more every time I hear him play that organ. This is probably my favorite version of this song although there are quite a few that are real close.
what is the little toggle switch Brent keeps switching back and forth? its on the lower left side of his organ...when he solos he keeps messing with it...what does that do? what an amazing instrument it is; and he really is amazing on it...all soul.
H Cat Hey man, 7 years later, that’s the speed control for his Leslie speaker (the special spinning speakers used for Hammond organs) you can see one behind Phil at 2:44. The speed controls the speed of the spin and creates the watery sound that the Hammond is known for
@@pauzer922 4 months later... Thanks for the info! I think that will be a good thing to know, especially for my keyboardist girlfriend who LOOOVEs Brent's sound!
This place got blown the hell up after this show went down......l.i.t.e.r.a.l.l.y.! or did Brent blow it up? 100,000 deadheads at this show........EPIC!
I dig it but you don't want to pour the syrup in your skillet especially if it is cast iron Put syrup on when your cakes have been plated Maybe syrup wouldn't ruin the seasoning of the skillet cuz it's sugar Moisture is the anti-castiron in seconds of leaving any water or liquid will make it oxidize fast as a mother The taste is somewhere between the scent of wet assed dog smell Combined with the aromatic tones of a filthy rotten brillo pad long living in the floor grime behind the stove So that's the flavor profile if you ask me
Brent was a master at toggling the Leslie switch for that doppler effect. Musicians of that era worked with what they had, and they were better musicians for it!
Ha. Once he was above the frets and it went to the IV it ‘twas a bit rough. But it’s Bobby doing his Bobby thing 🤷🏻♂️. Jerry recovers and rounds it out just fine.
