  • hard tune to play live, ie like this, even though basically this is studio live for sure, which is amazing, very well recorded

  • @pyrotech8285 He had said in interviews it was dated and awkward to play....

  • i wonder why jerry didn't like this song, its such a great tune

  • In my opinion, this was their best. Experimental, flamboyant, raw, and pure psychedelia at its best.

  • I have a tiny caulk.

  • @overbrookXXX keep listening guys, you'll eventually fall into a sort of ethereal and kindred type of relationship with the Dead music. In my mind, it's evolutionary.

  • As much as I dislike this band, I gotta admit it their first LP is really fucking good.  Their best work for my money

  • @Motown65 Agreed. Lots of improve (a bit like Jazz of the late 1950s/early 1960s).

  • pure raw punk!

    

  • The time signatures are all over the place!!

  • only 1 week till I go to San Fran!!!!! Every time I hear this album I think about it!!!!!!

  • @Django5198 Yes! I hope you had a great time in SF! When I think of SF, I think of DCBA-25 by The Jefferson Airplane. This is a fantastic tune. It's too bad that GD didn't stay with the psychedelic sound all the way through.

  • @mickeymousebiker1 I thought it was the greatest city I'd ever been to besides Paris. there was nothing I disliked about it (except maybe the weather).

  • @Django5198 I exist in NE Ohio. At its worst, the chilly/rainy weather in SF pales compared to the lousy roller-coaster weather here. For another matter, this region of America is dull/lifeless/unimaginative.

  • @mickeymousebiker1 Without trying to sound rude, I have to agree that the Landscapes of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, and a lot of the midwest states do look sickeningly dull. I've never been but a lot of people who have been there say it's so boring it's almost scary. But there are some nice friendly cities around there apparently. Most american cities I've been to are really friendly

  • @Django5198  I need to move to California. I truly belong there. A Happy and Hopeful New Year 2012 to you.

  • @mickeymousebiker1 You can always come to Philly. We have plenty of "excitement" over here - if you love B&D and/or S&M. You'll be on your toes trying to avoid getting beaten within an inch of your life (or outright to death) or getting murdered while going about your business. (P.S. I'm a native Philadelphian and will join you in Cali. Seems MUCH less anal retentive out there than here - if my impressions are correct.)

  • As Phil Lesh has said, the first Dead album didn't indicate what they sounded like live at the time, but I love it anyway. It's like garage rock with good musicians, and this is my favorite track. It wasn't until their next (and IMO best) album "Anthem of the Sun" that we heard what the band was really all about.

  • Summer of 66....whew....Cheap Thrills still resonate for some of those affected.....dendrites unite *

  • The Grateful Dead grew into greatness.

  • Sounds like early Arthur Lee and Love.

  • Comment removed

  • This reminds me of surfing here in nova scotia.

  • this album is 44 years old today..next to VLB,this is my favorite cut from this disc.

  • I love this album. Why didn't The Dead put out more great stuff like this instead of all the mellow acoustic stuff that came after it?

  • @spahnranch69 you must be new, because there's TWO MORE ALBUMS OF THIS, and those two albums are even better than this

  • @tommytentiming, are you referring to Anthem of the Sun and Aoxamoa?

  • @spahnranch69 "Mellow acoustic stuff"? There's nothing wrong with that.

  • @spahnranch69 mellow acoustic stuff come on now the dead are good at whatever music they play

  • YEAH!!!

  • there are at least 1200 cool people in the world!

  • HIPPIE MUSIC!

  • Don't fuck with this Warners!!!

  • J'adore !!! Groooooovy =)

  • cool
