[platter1000]

awesome video but jerry looks like he could use a good shit shower and a shave

[CashCamg]

Bob Weir taught Bobby Bonds how to use HGH

[icebirdz]

BOB Weir stays YOUNG !

GREAT AMERICAN BAND/ MUSIC. Maybe the Best

[iorioriorio]

I married me a rich prep school girl, she's been a royal pain the tuchas all my life!

[sudonimh19]

Got chills from the awesomeness! Rock on Deadheads!

[MrBluesFool]

Was at this show , 11th row center. Saw them many times and this was one of the best ...OMG..Radio City Music Hall. Class production start to finish. Sound, Lighting,And ambjence all top notch. One of the best shows I ever saw, and that is saying alot. It was an honor to be there.

[burnybrosnan]

Keep warm,people!

[Allanoster]

Plain and simple. I miss Jerry!

[kylegancarz]

well i married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life...

[mrmrak6]

GOOD!!

[grandbbq]

Nothing better than a Dead show on Holloween.

[TomG6000]

beyond greatness...just beyond...

[mselinske]

Radio City was a magical run for us Deadheads back then...First Acoustic sets in years..seven of us came down from college in Boston for the show, dropped some liquid, and let the music play...however Uncle Johns Band was the encore for Halloween Night, this song was played in the first set...Thanks for posting it though..i love time travelling...

[mharrin5507]

Classic Jerry look @3:25. :)

[verno329]

Always loved this tune. Long live Jerry!

[tjhillgardner]

I was fourth row for this. I knew then how special this was.

[Maitreyafication]

@tjhillgardner Hey, what jerry song has the lyric, "throw me in the jailhouse til the sun goes down"?

[Feestar76]

[mcgriv]

Still missin' you, Jerry

[LedZepplinFan54]

i want to look like jerry when i get older!

[torie7498]

my dad keeeps playin this while i do hw and its friggin annoying. i hate this songgg

[maxwellph]

Where did you get this? It's not on "Dead Ahead."

[kerripolus]

Unless you are in Wisconsin right now, you will not grasp Cold Rain and Snow, the way I feel it right now! I love how this song has a Native American Indian feel!

[peachkey]

This video + Me + Joint + Guitar = Learning this song in about 10 minutes and feeling like a badass

[Leeberful]

This is probably the best version of this song in the middle of their career. I am fond of the 60s version...but this just Rocks. Wow, those Sennheiser's sound good on vocals. And either Jer or Bobby does an incredible rhythm lead at 4:21.

[Hipdudester]

Me too goose bumps. Make me remember Brent too.

[wichitarick]

Thank you! Was -15 here yesterday and this came to mind lol, will forward this to old friends In Colorado and Minn. and East coast that are buried maybe get some smiles from it. Long time dead head ,a rare thing in these parts lol I keep my integrity by trying to pass it on and smile at the nay sayers. YES True Hippies can have a Life also . Peace Rick In Wichita Kansas.

[33vicparis]

I was born in SF and have been a deadhead since 1966 - I've gone to the last three Furthur NYE concerts and Phil's 70th birthday. Furthur just doesn't do it for me. I thought they would - but I miss the rhythem devils, I miss Jerry. I sold my NYE tickets at face to some very happy deadheads from Boulder because I knew they really wanted to be there. I get goosebumps when I hear this.

[wichitarick]

@33vicparis Must be contagious? I have the same goose bumps . And Yes those were/are some Happy! dead heads. Likely friends of mine children still bouncing around . Peace Rick Wichita Ks.

[pfmaguire2000]

wonderful

[peacefulfreedomluv]

Some Sweet Ass Shit!!!

[BarreraMusic]

classic

[GrooveTraveler]

so few words with so much meaning, look Jerry's eyes! This guy was obviously in touch with what he's saying!!! I picture a large woman chasing him out the front door swating with an old broom! Run me out in the cold rain and snow! RAIN AND SNOW Oh Oh Oh OH OH WOE!!!

[GrooveTraveler]

That man's voice was so silky smooth! There's no reason in the wide wide world that he ought not to have had all the teen aged girls he wanted throwing themselves at him wherever he may roam...

[GrooveTraveler]

Super Duper! Thanks!

[StealY0urFace]

one of my favs.

[StStephenhead]

Love at 4:25 when jerry gets into it. just amazing

[aquabats70]

so cool to be able to watch jerry sing and play close up. best thing about you tube.

[4everledzep]

peace to all deadheads

[TheKilbasa]

@4everledzep and to you, as well! :-)

[jasenmack]

Its because they go in with preconceived notions about The Dead. If you just have this playing without telling people who it is they will dig it. Tell them its The Dead before hand and they never give it a shot.

[tony411m]

simply fantastic!

[bradmason123]

aahhh, Jerry playin' the low notes

[cokefueledrage]

i walked out of my house this morning ( 5:40am EST) to walk the daag.

and when i saw what was happening, i thought of this song

and then the daag turned around and headed home

I loove the dead

[morvelification]

2:09 fuck yeah. FUCK. YEAH.

amazing.

[racknricky]

gotta luv it! sure miss the dead.

[BriBriou812a32]

AWESOME SONG!!!! YA!!!!!

[MrBuzyrd]

Does anyone remember UNCLE JERRY???

[dsilbar]

Best when seeing the Dead live at an outdoor show in the pouring rain. Heaven sent.

[1962Slapshot]

One of my favorite tunes and it's always nice to hear Jerry!!!

[tommytheboy14]

Furthur on people..... JK can bring it and My first show was in 77.......

[parablearable]

i was there on their dime thanks to bill walton,kiki vandweweigh and earnest scalemandre'.thanx earnest!!!!!!nice windows too.

[havenmusic42]

love everything about 1980 GD - if you play guitar you may want to check out my practice rendition of Cold Rain and Snow in my video response

[tgoodin1102]

Holy G Science! Rock on Jerrry. I miss you bro! saw the dead in 91 and it was a nice try, but sad miss, yet I was lucky to see Jerry and the boys as good as they were. I have no regrets or doubts about their skillzs at that point.

[mendex2006]

jerry love to jam with brent specially, i m sure of it

[jerseyguyctj]

I was at this show and it was friggin awesome. Guess I'm showin my age, huh?

My personal fave from this show is Franklin's Tower.

The boys were definitely "on" on this night.

RIP Jerry & Brent - miss ya

[kariaudar]

Greatest friggin´ band in the history of popular music. Absolutely no competition!

[PebbleBreeze]

yeah!!!

[bauman743]

Reading "Living with the Dead" right now by Rock.... Man, I miss the Good Ol' Grateful Dead!

[veggiedeadhead]

I remember listening to this song so much at the beach that my friend wanted to take the CD and throw it out the window.

[PlaxinHeat]

Awesome, thank you.

Jerry's little smirk @ 4:20 (oddly enough) is priceless. Wonder home many time he was locked out in the cold rain and snow.

[crwhitneythegreat]

Yep; its cold rain outside now, in San Joaquin co., Ca.! Suppose the snow is goin' on , too, but that's miles away from me! This is a "get homework done" inspiration song; for me!

[shakedown5000]

Jerry and Brent=magic. RIP.

[boatbyrns]

Had me a wife shes been trouble all my life what can I say miss the bous all together. Jerry was the man!

[boatbyrns]

had a wife she been all my life what else can I say .Love ths version. Miss all the fun and trips.

[mharrin5507]

classic Garcia expression @3:25

[manthatcan1983]

I remember being a kid on my dad's shoulders while my mom danced to the music at Dead shows! Great memories!

[crwhitneythegreat]

Wish I coulda went to a Grateful Dead show; didn't become a fab 'till last year, after that it was ON!

[thebigschott]

I can't imagine anyone listening to a song like this and not getting hooked on the Grateful Dead!

[doctorquickbooks]

@thebigschott

Right on brother

[BeatleBob2]

@thebigschott I heard the original faster version in 1967 at the Grand Ballroom in Detroit, ended up seeing them at all three concerts that weekend, then recorded this song later with my group.

[MSJsoul]

@thebigschott

Funny you say that. About 15 years ago I was at a gas station in San Diego cranking a version of Cold Rain and Snow while filling up and this guy who had never heard the Dead before came over and said, "That is so good who is that?" I told him and he kept at it with, "How do I get a recording of this?" He was from baja and with his whole family but had to know what that great sound was.

[HoldenCalif]

strangely, it makes me want to cry. Jerry was something special.

[78jjackson]

@HoldenCalif thats not strange at all

[MsTruthMatters]

@thebigschott WORD!!

[supermemojo]

@thebigschott I cant either,this is what keeps life going.Thats not light bro.counts a war,prison,to blessed with love.Thanks to the Dead for life.

[soulevolution82]

I know exactly what Jerry's talkin bout, I been thrown out in the cold rain and snow, literally by my ex, and spiritually from a painkiller addiction, which he had as well for a while, I feel ya Jerry man, he IS a magical man with music, the way he expresses himself w the others is soooo

GENUINE, bands aren't like that anymore

[Aquitat]

. . . and I'm goin' where those chilly winds don't blow . . . winds don't bl-o-o-o-ow, o-o-o-o-ow

[tmc515]

"Well shes comin down the stairs pulling back her yellow hair"

[shakedown5000]

This whole show was amazing. When they were "on" it was pure magic and when they weren't they were still the best. Like the man said, "There is nothing like a GD show"

[drmlabs]

day-um I still miss these &^%$ers

[womenrsmarter420]

for me its like hendrix janis and jim they were @ for like 4 or 5 years when i started my run in 90/95 it ended as quick as it started to bad so much fun back then and now just no jerry....forever grateful

[sytby]

Where did you get this? Is it on the "Dead Ahead" release?

[canadianchewie1]

This is not the encore to the show. This is the 2nd song in set II. Just sayin...

[deathlikesilence710]

today is a sad day in history

aug. 9 RIP Jerry

[mugawumpmusic]

jerry garcia will never die. He lives on through the people he inspired and shared his love with, which were many. Take a moment to love Jerry, and you will be pleasantly taken by the beauty that is all creation. JAH!

[AmateurPhilosopher85]

Never had the opportunity to see the Dead, but last night saw bob weir and Ratdog. They opened with "playing in the band" and "cold rain and snow". Incredible show

[crwhitneythegreat]

All of you who saw live Dead shows; you are blessed. You have that memory with you for life, man. That is awesome! I like this post; Also no text posts of BS! I like that!

[usernametaken73]

im one of the lucky ones who caught the tail end...first show was 89....last was Soldier Field 95! SOOOOOO Glad!!

[crwhitneythegreat]

Awesome...Lucky!

[dylanbees451]

[dylanbees451]

[grapp86]

[sudonimh19]

@Magnolia274

OMG; I'm so sorry, I gave ur comment a thumb's down, but didn't mean to, I hit it on accident!! can u undo it??

[oneillkev]

OMG 30 years gone by.. I was actually 10 years old on that day, and not at the show. This is one of my favorite songs, fitting with the marriage ending now. Thank God for the online archive of every Dead Show ever. Who would of thought. Stay close.

[motnotsla]

Search: Peter Rowan -Tony Rice - Cold Rain and Snow. It's a nice version, slow and spooky, hitting the high notes. Check it out!

[caseyjones67]

keith and brent look alot alike to bad pig,tom,keith,and brent all died

[jackstraw1969]

Tom's not dead...He's Dead...but not dead.

[npspec34]

Hey, Keith and Donna were GREAT,

but ultimately the Dead were a blues/rock band at heart and this line-up did at as good as any. "And I ain't goin be treated this ol' way."

or Dead Dude Downhill Drive Derby (relived)

[superkindonmymind]

I cant get enough of this song

[TULLYCAST3]

I'm right with you.
