If I wanted to see those fancy array of colors I would just take some acid, why must they have those cheesy effects in the video. Otherwise, sounds great.
Best Vince vocals I have heard. They played this as a closer, Rich Stadium 92 or 93... after "They're all wasted", they went into Beatles' Tommorow Never Knows"
...everybody is entitled to their opinion...no accounting for taste...but remember - the Dead NEVER "covered" another band's music. They just took what was out there, "gratefully deadicated" the songs, and let it fly...Sometimes the recordings are not perfect , it was done live without remix, overdubs or electronic tweaking- just like the scars on fine leather - a reminder of the authenticity (apologies to the Woodstock album liner notes)
You're kidding right? Don't judge Phil's voice based off of a YouTube video, at least find a better sounding recording before you start dissing the Dead.
I was about 10th row for this show and the last time I really doses hard at a Dead show,wow.Last show and last song of the year...the first year they stopped playing New Year's shows.Those 2 drops I took in on a choclate chip cookie sure were powerful and so was the bad the night before 12-16-92, Jerry was on fire.
This is one great band covering another great band! I think the bands were buddies?
Its interesting, and something of a novelty, but they cant match The Who's original it is one of their signature tunes - dont think The Who could have played `Dark Star' though!
To the moron who opined that "Jerry feels it more than Daltrey ever did." Perhaps you've never listened to the Grateful Dead before, but Jerry isn't singing this song.

I think Vince's voice on the contrary is pretty fine here..as is the rest of the band and the arrangement
