[sofewroads]

what a masterpiece this is and you can tell the dead AS usual when covering dylan take is so seriously

[schwartzf1]

I like to close my eyes and dance around a lil so it feels like I'm there:)

[FRANCECHILD]

THE POPE SAYS YOU CAN SEE GOD IN ART. HE IS SPOT ON. AMEN

[mphurwitz]

The best version, imo, is The Band live off of Rock of Ages disc 2. Good luck finding it...I've been looking for-ever!!!

[LongStrangeTrip710]

@mphurwitz The Band with Dylan? I can upload that one for ya :)

[mphurwitz]

@LongStrangeTrip710 I would be forever grateful...pun SO intended, if you uploaded that one for me, it's by far my favorite version and I've been trying to find it ever since that trip back in 2005. If you get it up on this piece, please do let me know. Thanks in advance. Hugs!

[schach420]

Is that background supposed to begin moving on me? Or did I just look for too long at it?

[XanatharEye]

nobody xcept Brent even gives a crap on this testament to apathy. JGB is where it's at

[skyhippychick]

Too much LSD and Cocaine had my head a spinning,

My grasp on reality, place and time was very quickly thinning. I held on to a dream, though it was maybe more a notion, Fueled by visions of dancing bears and unrestrained devotion.

I’m a music lover born and bred,

But by choice a faithful Dead Head.

7-26-1987 also has a great version. Powerful vocals, and Jerry was in full effect all night. Major kicker is that it is one of the View from the Vaults (number 4 to be exact) so you can watch a great video of the entire show. May Jerry and the Dead live forever!!!

[akira515]

[fv593duys]
