KILLER SONG!!!

[the43k]

RIP Jerry.... We miss you

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@the43k

R.I.P. Pigpen. He died the year I was born but I allways admired him.

[fubsie2]

@TEMPmichaelhansen There is something almost enigmatic about Pigpen. He died before I was born, too, but I always found him so interesting, for some reason.

[TheZepmeister]

O-riginal Dead Heads!!

[jeffreypepperrodgers]

Beautiful...great groove, sound, images.

[eargasmjamz]

the song is in the key of E Blues so your harp would be a fifth away from the key so it would be A harp. thats how you determine harp key when playing blues tunes brah

[WoogieTheCat]

Thank you for posting this!

[KoreanMilkman2007]

what key is that harp in? E?

[esumsea]

@KoreanMilkman2007

Yep

[THCisbody]

seeing jerry healthy makes this so much better. amazing

[coyote023]

[TheXraser]

Festival Express now that's a damn good bit of history for any music buff

[saetiacore16]

amen.

all great musicians, all playing great sets, ridin' a train across canada...untouched by society for a couple days.

this needs to happen again.

[Marthanna3]

Amen, brother!

Martha

[cassidy3268]

I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill.

I saw things getting out of hand, I guess they always will.

Now I don't know but I been told

If the horse don't pull you got to carry the load.

I don't know whose back's that strong, maybe find out before too long.

One way or another, one way or another,

One way or another, this darkness got to give.

[katolesce]

Love it. "Please don't dominate the rap, Jack, if you've got nothing new to say." I wish people would heed that advice more often.

[powerman2027]

[connrobi]

pwnage

[chefcosmiccharlie]

It doesnt get any better than this, sucks to get old

[sksnbss]

This never gets old in my book!!!!! We got to tune into the best music ever made and I'm glad to have been a witness of it!!! uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutube!!!!!

[derfsanderson]

its ok, dont worry. worrying is what makes you old.

[JohnMayerGayFlamer]

@chefcosmiccharlie

Not just getting old sucks. Getting older sucks. I'm staring at 37. What are you staring at? No matter that, things aren't the way they used to be, are they?

Or was it all just a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago?

Bby the way, I'm not gay. John Mayer is and you can find this to be triue on my channel page after seeing him in the man bikini.

Would Jerry wear something like that?

I think not and everything I know to be true I learned from Jerry.

[gunsanddrugs]

@chefcosmiccharlie hey! nothing sucks about gettin old! its a great trip, we have the man on the moon stories, we have the war stories, the conspiracy stories and what do the young un's have>>>>? boy bands!

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@chefcosmiccharlie

i swore the older jerry got he got better. he was allways himself. you should hear the interviews with him about the acid tests, the "Anthem to beauty" DVD, & the IN THE DARK album. He was allways funny. ALSO CHECK OUT THE GRACE SLICK INTERVIEW!!! "Grace Slick Profile - CBS 08/03/09 " says a nice thing about Jerry Garcia.

[TheMitchymitch13]

@chefcosmiccharlie like my mother always says "if you're not getting older then you're dead"

[GeorgenotSmith]

@chefcosmiccharlie:

Yeah, I *hate* when that happens.

[conratty]

this song sounds better live

[MrChrlee]

This is FARKIN' AWESOME ! Looks and sounds great !!

[taylor410ce]

I saw this movie a long time ago can anyone tell me what the name of it is?

[hookahLAwoman]

festival express?

[seanx666]

nice and lazy NSB. ahhh...if only more footage existed from this show.

[melodicsympatico]

love the brothers' dead

[SunshinneChild]

Jerry looks really good here! & Everyone else! This is an amazing video & brilliant song.

[hazelmere1]

Get the film Festival Express if you like this. This is from the film. The Band is also great in the film as is the footage of Danko, Joplin and Garcia tripping their asses off and having the time of their lives.

[WEIR4EVER]

MILLION thanks to whomever posted this. Heard them in 76, saw them first in 81, what a treat to see such great footage from way back! Thanks man.

[isjerryzkid]

TFF ty n peace  all i can say is CHOICE

[philzkidz]

wohhhhhhhhooooooo... PHIL PHALL TOUR!!!!

[Zookfoot]

I would rather be at a Dead show than a Hendrix show. Nuthin towards Jimmy,....but....

[orlaej]

At that day Hendrix played Boston Garden, Massachusetts!

[doogiejunk]

Next time i see Jerry in my dreams, i wanna ask him,"Why Micky? Billy held things down just fine."

[tomestokes]

Billy and Mickey plus piggy man this is the clearest tightest film I've seen with the New Speedway Boogie. I am always grateful for those who had the foresight and ability to record history in the present, for those in the future, who weren't even a twinkle in their daddy's eyes yet. God Blessed the Grateful Dead.

[suereed]

This is amazing stuff.The best dead film I have ever seen and the coolest sound. Truely subline.

Its revon eyeliner no.7 (best for afternoon-ware).

[kriswhat]

God they were so good around this time. <3

[reallygonecat]

Jerry was a notorious cross dresser, although in his defense, he only wore silky underthings on saturday night. Hence the song, "One More Saturday Night". Just check out the peggy-o from vegas '94, he has obviously clean shaven legs, and shapely they are too! I think Bob's feminity made Jerry a little jealous, and he wanted to show that he too could be a beautiful woman. I mean after all, what were the dead about if not letting your hair down? And yes, I'm kidding, okay?

[6749er]

reallygonecat ..I get that you are kidding & I think it's pretty funny & amusing. I go back to Warlock days & I'm guessing but I think Garica would think so too. He always had more of a sence of humor than a whole lot of the so serious about him & them latter day Deadheads and Yes it was written as a responce to Altamont. Nice to read someone who knows where it's at. Love this tune. Thanks! Poway23 I'm becoming a big fan of yours. Happy Trails to You.& Good old Grateful Dead.

[elbo33]

Relax Philibust- I know who Jerry is and have spent a lot of time listening to and playing his tunes. It was kind of a joke, but also a serious question. I'm sure the boys played rock star on occasion.

[elbo33]

Does Jerry have eye makeup on?

[Philibust]

fuck no! at least you didnt call him "jimmy garcia" like this retard commenting on one of the videos on pg 1

[ultzisakhain]

Eye makeup?? Definitly... NOT!!!

[caution686]

this is amazing. It's nice to see some good footage of the dead. Pigpen and jerry are awesome

[reallygonecat]

Is this song about the concert at Altamont?

[crawdad1]

yes robert hunter has footnote in his lyric book box of rain stating this song is response to ralph gleason's article slamming the bands involved in altamont

[bluenote335]

Great God Almighty! That is some of the finest GD footage I have ever seen! Many Many thanks for this post :))

[NEWspeedwayBOOGIE]

hmm... i think i like this song... obviously lol

[ethandeitrich]

this is from festival express. great movie.

[bellinghamster]

awesome... thanks!!!

[dopeywonder]

this is from a movie called festival express i believe is the name about the tour through canada on a train- insane=-it has great footage of all the bands on the train playin music together in different cars and has several full dead songs- i reccomend it!

[doctorx67]

AWESOME!!! Pigpen in undistorted video=miracle. amazing quality, im guessing this was featured on TV...Sweet jerry high note as well. Who knew these boys would evolve into the most important american band of all time?

[joealanouf]

um. freeking awsome.
