Traffics original version is much cleaner and purer. In other words it has not been "stepped on", and yet Jerry and crew again reminds us that indeed, we all could used a good head trip in these heady days of 2011. I'm grateful that he is dead, and not having to witness the vast rising tide of crappola about to engulf us all coming from the Middle East. The Western World needs to take a giant bong hit, mellow out, then resolve not to let freedom die through evil paradigms that would enslave us
It's absolutely absurd that the Tiger sold for less than a million, and a fuckin Chinese vase just sold for 80 mil. Just goes to show people with that kind of money have no idea what they're doing...
Take us out of this gloom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile! A moment in time, a memory lasts forever. Lifes only consolation.
Love In at Elysian Park, March 26, 1967. Ron "Pigpen" McKernan on vocals and tuck-n'-roll Hammond. Ron was chuggin' Coors, and would use his ponytail to wipe the head off his walrus mustache. Turn On Your Love Light was Ron's tribute to Ray Charles. Hope I'm reincarnated to jam with the man.
There is no one I miss more than Jerry, but Brent is a close 2nd. His voice and songs are some of the most touching ever. I love you, see you again one day.......Jackstraw58
I was standing in line to pay my respects to Jerry Garcia August 13, 1995 at the Polo Fields in Golden Gate Park and I could hear these 2 woman and a man talking about how sad it was that Jerry had taken so many drugs and not taken care of himself maybe as much as he could have. And I heard the man say in an almost pranksterish voice, "Please dont be sad, if it was the straight life he'd had, we wouldn't have known him all of these years". I cried just a we bit less that day and I remembered.
Always loved the melodies of Jerry & Brent together in this song. Nothing better. God, I miss them both, but didn't they fill my life with some beautiful stuff while they did?
I can see it like it was just yesterday: through the viewfinder of a Panasonic PV-100, into a JVC S20U portable HiFi stereo VCR. With the FM signal, of course.
I would love to see this and the other video source which is from straight on combined together!!I have the VHS, I'll work on transferring it to dvd, but Synching sound is not my strong point.....
"please dont be sad if it was a str8 life you had would not of known you all these years"...THANKS JERRY rock with BRET and PIG some where in the fabric of time and space. While we all will just sit here in limbo youtube!
awesome boys, awesome!

Ill never forget opening the Detroit Free Press to see Brents obit. I had just seen his last show. I believe it was in Chicago.
Hampton Va. was a favorite venue, as well as Copps in Ontario. They always seemed to rock a little heavier in thoes round arenas.
