Grateful Dead - Loser - 4.12.78

[deerhunter34100]

@Goodywagon damn like those four songs: loser, Althea, Peggy-O, and terrapin are outstanding, and so aren't many other dead tunes but I love them tunes a lot!

[kocean1]

Great to hear Donna on this---what a great up load

[clubmyndset]

Man, I can't put into words how listening to this with the visual makes me feel. "SHIT"

[charfman84]

wow, that solo might be the sickest loser I have ever heard

[obiwannut]

i nearly shat myself during that solo - long live jerry

[UGot2Rollme]

this is so fckn awsm... such a beautiful butterflien >>> solo that Jerry sings through his guitar..

[kocean1]

Great camera work-Duke Film School.

[loraccap]

you have to listen to the Dead with your heart to apprecviate it

[Myrna4Loy]

american music is always the same

must be a strange country

[bigdallyc]

@Myrna4Loy Thats crazy talk. We have the best and most diverse music in the world. Turn on the radio and look at your music collection. American music is #1.

[nycman131313]

@Myrna4Loy That has to be the most uneducated comment I have read in a while. Yes I guess Germany is known for their great music huh? Go listen to some more David Hasselhoff, he is a legend there:) Again what a stupid comment.

[Myrna4Loy]

@nycman131313

who is david hasselhoff?

never heard of

[Goodywagon]

@Myrna4Loy This band is outta this world man. you really do have to listen to it with your heart to appreciate it. like really man. Not all of us are the same man, that is a sweeping generalization. There are many terrible people all over the world, you just gotta search for the good ones and befriend them before it is to late. These were some amazing, "people". Jeeze, open your mind.

[dkdering]

this is unbelievable! I have this concert on CD, I had no idea it was on video. Thanks for posting it...maybe the best "Loser" ever! JG is from another planet ....what a treat ...the Peggy O is unreal also

[talkingducksrgreat]

we all know how many classics this band has. but would anybody reccomend more that are specificially like THIS ONE??? ??? is it me or is there just something about it??? ???

[appraiserjv]

@talkingducksrgreat One of my fav "rare" tracks has to be "two souls in communion".  check that out

[Goodywagon]

@talkingducksrgreat There is just something about most of their songs haha. Especially when played like this, but as far as similar mentions:

Althea

Peggy-O

High Time

Idk I really love most.

Terrapin does it for me everytime.

[333Hille]

I love this song - wish I had been there!!! but I was 5 years old and in Sweden...

[sharegrace]

@333Hille yes I wish I was there too, but I was there 3 nights later in Virginia. Check out William and Mary 2nd set. Similar energy but more intense...Best Not Fade Away I can find . Great Morning Dew too.

May Jesus Christ bless your country and its people and our people and all people over the world

[mrwright70]

thanks

[fishhedz]

Is that Emmylou Harris?

[kewlbreez]

No, dude, it's Donna Jean Godchaux, at that time she was married to Keith Godchaux, the piano player for the Dead. Google her & Keith for their history with the band, and afterwards. She's back in music now, for some time, after having been out for many years.

[bluenote335]

I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines...

[statesidekale]

this is great and its also my favorite dead tune

[JimAntics]

Wow... that jam that start at 4:29 is what it's all about.... I just love it!!!

I have to go see Pearly Baker play this next week!!!

[voznow7]

This is the Jam.

[WallsTV]

[spagNsc]

Beware of the Queen of Diamonds. Dont let her get that ten dollars it unless it include 72 hours rent paid at the hotel.

[intoHelpOnTheWay]

Nice one! Thaks for the post and the great show. I am so hooked on the '78 stuff. I am also not above begging...anyone holding onto anything like this...please don't boggart! Pass it on!

[greateststory72]

this is such a hot time period/month im so happy i stumbled across these videos, thanks for the upload SBDmusic, another hidden gd gem

[mattlevitch]

Awesome!!!

One of my favorite versions of Loser. The band was so polished at this stage of their career. Absolutely love the jam in this song. Garcia's guitar sounds so, so sweet, and Keith adds some great backing work on piano. Perfection.

[alchemistvstiger]

dope.

[MrSharkey11]

who you?

[alchemistvstiger]

@MrSharkey11 yeah



[darkstar2181]

Thanks SBD for posting this concert is a gem

[davecainsf]

A real treat to see all these tunes. This is #9, set one. Garcia has some trouble with his solo; the second run is a little more on target. They recover nicely in the chorus.

[gagealbright]

[bolillo239]

[friscobay01]

Are you kidding? no comments in 4 months? There aren't as many deadheads on YToob as I thought. Great upload SBD, thank you for all of the nice videos, cheers to you my friend.
