Little Clip of Mimi Farina, David Bromberg, and Jerry Garcia

[jazzmanchgo]

It's Rosalie. She 's a good friend of mine, and I just asked her about this clip. She doesn't have a copy of it, but she knows about it and she remembers that day very well. And yes, MillerMencken40, she and Bromberg were touring together at that time.

If you look very carefully after the song ends you'll see David Bromberg getting up to leave (about 56 seconds in). I think he says (in reference to the rain) "it's not good for the dobro.." The way the dobro finished that up sounded very rehearsed. I would venture to say that Bromberg was probably playing gigs with Rosalie at the time.

Yes, Rosalie. Check her out

[pootinella]

the women singing is Rosalie Sorrels

[seaking1926]

The woman singing with Garcia and Bromberg is Sylvia Tyson of Ian and Sylvia.

[FenceThis]

That is NOT Mimi Farina

[dominiquedv]

Are you sure it is Mimi Farina? It is not her voice and not her face!

[William1880]

Definitely Rosalie Sorrels's voice and face, not Mimi Farina. Mimi was probably on site, but that's it.

[StJohnsliberia]

Whoever it's supposed to be, all I can see is Jerry Garcia! I wanted to see what David Bromberg looked like in '69, but I'll have to look elsewhere. I must say the voice does not, at least in this video, sound like Mimi Farina.

[William1880]

Definitely Rosalie Sorrels & not Mimi Farina.

[ramblinshoes]

I agree with you--wrong chin.

[Peachtreefrog]

I am relieved that I am not the first to notice that THIS IS ROSALIE SORRELS, NOT MIMI FARINA!

[jpwonkie]

Yep, I had guessed Rosalie Sorrels too before reading the other comments.

Don't fret about the Dead being MIA from the Woodstock film, I was there too & they really sucked that night, & I was a fan then.

[moco635]

Did anyone ever see the F Troop episode that had Henry Gibson guest star as "Wrongo Star" and he had a goat "Miss Gwendolynne"...that who she sounds like.

[Giselle62]

it's not mimi---she doesn't sing like that and she was quite shy---prob didn't jam much---please change title.

[RATBOY222]

All u see is Jerry? and? What more matters?

[tedslaw]

Ditto that. It's Rosalie by a chin. Although Mimi and Sylvia were both there, Sylvia had a similar vocal style and similar appearance, it's definitely Rosalie. Besides, it was her song from her then current LP, as stated previously. The title really should be changed. Give credit where credit is due. The biggest blunder the Dead ever made was not appearing in the Woodstock movie. Thanks a lot Warner Bros. #$%&*!!!

[bilanalieb]

It is without doubt Rosalie Sorrels! No more debate necessary.......

[Ermengarde11]

In learning about all my favorite musicians over the years I've heard a lot about Mimi. This is the first time I've experienced her singing that I know of! Thanks!! Going to check out her other stuff here with Dick too, how cool the stuff you find on YouTube!

[spiderladya]

she's not mimi!!

[JERRYBAND801]

All i see is Jerry

[305chonga]

THats not mimi farina! Change it please

[captaingutz]

Cool clip---howlingly bad title page.  Once more for the folks in the cheap seats, that would be my friend, Rosalie Sorrels, singing "If I Could Be the Rain" (by U. Utah Phillips, GVGSW(random little ditty?)) the title track of her 1967 Folk Legacy LP.

While we're at it, Bromberg is playing the Dobro.

[Cal44]

Actually it's Rosalie Sorrels

[Bobb9999]

Ditto. That's unmistakenly Sylvia Tyson.

[lefthanded129]

definitely sylvia tyson

[Baez971]

Sorry but that is not Mimi Farina!

[bucksfarmboy]

... I think this is Sylvia Tyson from Ian & Sylvia, some of their vids are posted here, take a listen/look :)

[bucksfarmboy]

nope, looks, sounds, NOTHING like her. we miss you Mimi

[jeffersonista]

dude, that's NOT Mimi Farina
