    I've had a tough time getting into these guys in my life - that is until I found Dick's Picks Volume 8. I see what you all have been going on and on about, finally.

    Ha, glad ya made it. It took me a while too. In college it's was kinda preordained that you were supposed to like they so, being stubborn, I chose not to like them. Fast forward to post-college (and, unfortunately, post-Garcia) and their live album One From The Vault (still one of my favos) is the the portal that did it for me. The fun part about finding them late is there is sooooo much music to discover. Fortunately they were a few decades ahead of their time in recording most of their live shows!

    BTW, I noticed on another of your posts somewhere that y'all are expecting baby Two...congrats! :clap:

    Is anyone else going to Bob Weir's birthday party for jerry this Friday at red rocks? If so, does anyone know how the show is going to be structured (bob and camprife, then a long jam with guests and Bobby is my guess?)

    i still love this

    http://liveforlivemusic.com/news/warren-haynes-shares-playlist-of-his-favorite-grateful-dead-songs-listen/

    Warren Haynes’ Favorite Grateful Dead Songs

    TERRAPIN STATION – The quintessential Grateful Dead “time capsule” song.

    CHINA DOLL – I much prefer “live” versions to the studio version. Beautiful haunting melody and lyrics.

    CRAZY FINGERS – I love the way the music and melody, which sound nothing like traditional reggae music, are superimposed over the reggae beat. Great chord changes.

    COMES A TIME – I always loved the Garcia/Hunter ballads. Gave Jerry plenty of space to emote in. His voice really delivers the emotion of the lyric and melody.

    BROKEDOWN PALACE – Another beautiful ballad with a timeless lyric and music that spans back through the history of American music.

    SHAKEDOWN STREET – I prefer the slower, funkier “live” versions to the studio version but it’s a classic part of the Dead repertoire.

    UNCLE JOHN’S BAND – One of Hunter’s best lyrics – really paints a picture of a beautiful, fictitious story.

    HELP ON THE WAY > SLIPKNOT – Classic 1, 2 punch – fans hate to hear them separated, but either on it’s own is great. Cool juxtaposition of a straight ahead, R&B influenced, tune in to a very complex instrumental that’s influenced by jazz and classical music.

    RIPPLE – The simplest, but perfect, melody – also one of Hunter’s best lyrics. The audience has to sing along-they have no choice.

    BLUES FOR ALLAH – Uniquely beautiful piece of music.

    KING SOLOMON’S MARBLES – Another complex instrumental very influenced by jazz and jazz fusion.

    STELLA BLUE – Another timeless ballad composed in a way that shows influences from decades before the birth of Rock and Roll.

    WHARF RAT – One of those “slow-burn” Dead tunes that signifies their unique, instantly identifiable sound. Great song but also a great vehicle for improvisation.

    SCARLET BEGONIAS > FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN – Another pair of classics that the audience loves to hear together, but are equally powerful apart.
