Robert Hunter is America's Poet Laureate - has been for years! A hundred years from now people will be wondering if Jerry was an incarnation of Krishna.
PS to zambiland - I could NEVER make heads or tails of any Robt Hunter lyric til I either listened many many times, but very much easier when I got the book of all his Dead lyrics. (Of course, even then a lot don't make any sense - China Cat, anyone? not to mention Dark Star)
Aww...you're gonna make me cry...I WAS THERE that night! at the old Gahhden...stinky & uncomfortable as it was, it had so much history. I believe the Dead played more shows there than any other band who ever played the Gahhden.
And a shout out @ zambiland - I was on the floor as I recall, so it sounded pretty good.
This sounds way better than it did in the room that night! It was impossible to tell what the lyrics were from my seat, although it was amazing to hear this and Estimate Prophet for the first time.
First Dead show i ever heard!! Thanks!!

@mtoinma China Cat is supposedly about an acid trip. Silk trombone? C'mon :)

@dudeitsbryce Well, I'd venture to say that a LOT of their early songs were about acid trips. Or at least written while having one.

.@mtoinma according to hunter, china cat sunflower came about from a series of haiku he had written while psychedelically altered. hope this helps :)
