I Play Bass and bend the strings, i also play it out of tune. Try Kids.

[luvtotruck]

To use another gone to soon from us as a reference the late brother Marvin Gaye: WOAH OH MERCY MERCY ME AH MUSIC NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE OH NO WHERE HAVE ALL THE REAL ARTISTS GONE REPLACED BY TECHNO VOICES AND AUTO TUNE:(

[bdasht]

if you can honestly watch this video and still think the dead are 'the worst band ever', you are obviously a retard and probably have AIDS.

[Aryozad]

14 is a bit young!

[dgstan152]

There an't nothing like a Grateful Dead concert...

[joeyblast]

i call this the GRATEFUL DEAD. do not insult them with genres. ;)

GO FURTHUR!

[dubseedz757]

I heard Furthur perform this song 30 years later earlier this year, Bob and Phil still have it for sure! Still some young Dead fans as well and RIP Jerry

[imjustbuzzed23]

My dad is the biggest deadhead, this music is amazing and I only realized a couple of months ago

[youneedmorecowbell]

Phil is killing it in this. Turn it up and FEEL the bass. Awesome recording.

[MrMunive]

Jerry García is da deal!!!!!

[Quailman437]

I hope everyone who hates the dead die horrible deaths.

[wharfrat10]

@Quailman437 "Well that's a nice thing to say." he typed sarcastically

[SonjaBlade608]

[mrsjbigos]

RIP Jerry!

[SuperSushibar]

I cannot possibly like this more. "Everybody loves to polka!"

[TheDragonfucker]

for being really young i really admire the dead. some of the best music in the world if i must say!!!

[screwyootube1]

I wouldn't call this country music. This is rooted in bluegrass & folk, as much as country. A tinge of rockabilly, too.

[fucker661]

@screwyootube1 no matter what you call it, it can all be summarized by one word:awesome

[pholt999]

@screwyootube1

I'd call it the grateful dead...

[screwyootube1]

@pholt999 First and foremost...Their sound is very definitely all their own...

But there's no denying their influences, as they would likely be first to say...

Damn, I'm glad you commented... reminded me to listen to it again, LOL!

I'll always kick myself for not going to see them at least once, before it was too late...

[Ryan82586]

@screwyootube1 Bluegrass is a sub-category of the genre country.

[screwyootube1]

@Ryan82586 In the strictest sense, I'd agree. But I would NOT call all Bluegrass country music. In any case, the point was, that I wouldn't call this "country", only because there's so many other prominent influences in there.

[screwyootube1]

Wow, this was really cool! Thanks for posting this!

[masterfuol7]

YEA PHIL

[tony46571]

wilt could not be more right

[wilt0064]

I remember thinking and drinking when I first heard this. "So country music could actully be good! Why the fuck isn't it? What is wrong with those people on the radio?"

[FalseLion]

@wilt0064 real country music is good. the crap on the radio is typically pop music.

[PenLoverHH]

Thanks for posting. Great song! I remember sitting in front of the original German TV show 28 years ago watching the concert at nighttime.
