[JustJake57]

@carini7487 7/19 Fresno is the show you're alluding to.

[WaldenPeace1]

I wanna know where you found that awesome-ass picture of Jerry!

[jamesriverman]

it´s better than any drugs...

[ripbarrett72]

Would a musician be willing to tell me if jerry here plays a simple spanish scale or does he use a mode? And what one it is? Thanks aton, much love~Caleb

[dannyhood66]

Spanish psychedelic style is killer!..If overlooked since then it would be necessary to reinvent it.

[willeng84]

@dannyhood66 In my opinion the Doors kind of lived in that style.

[willeng84]

@dannyhood66 Thats what the doors were all about. Most of they're jams are in that vein. 

[hashachar70]

Just Beautiful! I can see the toreador in the ring.

Thank You for sharing!

[Hazlenuts1991]

[TheBackOfTheBoat]

@beachdog67 how true

[wildnites558]

Looks just like Gene Simmons!

[pesmith8768]

@wildnites558: True, but with actual music talent (not just business acumen).

[PinkZeppelin44]

[clarkewi]

This is real Acid test material - "Insect fear".

[trixie10121]

WOW-This Music Is Alot Better Than What I Do:)

[ascheylus]

i was in the lotus position meditating at a furthur show and they did spanish jam.. absolutely incredible.. i think it was the ithaca show but my memory is dicey.

[mountainhigh88]

Basque

[mountainhigh88]

jerry's left arm/hand is on the fret of the guitar--then it isn't, then it was and then is

capitan trips leads on evermore

[xmedical420Marijuana]

THE WIZARD

[prophetdude2]

Man, i want a guitar like that so bad,

it's to bad they cost

4000 DOLLARS!!

hint, hint gibson.

[Garboho]

I don't get how people don't like to blaze

[MarcoGreenberg]

@Garboho some people are just done with it, been there, did their thing then were just done with it for one reason or another. But I'll say this, I don't get how people hate on blazing and say they've never wanted to try. This is still awesome now and if it were years back I'd probably be even more mesmerized. Peace man. This is good stuff here, once they really get going into the jam,.

[NoRosesForMe]

@Garboho Cuz some of us have grown up and realized that there is more to life than gettin stoned. I ...ugh..."blazed"...in my teens.....for a long long long long time. If a person is intelligent and has any common sense they stop the childish shit and wake up to reality. Even tho its a bitch..........and then go out and buy good whiskey and get numb. Weed is overrated.

[Garboho]

@NoRosesForMe - Did I talk to you? Who the fuck are you? Don't rail on my because your life is lame and sucks. Childish? You realize that other societies have social norms with accept the usage and don't comport with ours? SO they are childish cultures? Ohh and numbnuts, the only one that needs to grow up is the loser still drinking hillbilly whiskey. You've seriously never had a good single malt?

[NoRosesForMe]

@Garboho First of all motherfucker I only drink Irish whiskey. Hence the "e" in its spelling. I dont touch amerikan shit. Secondly -I never said life is lame. But if you had a hard life you wouldnt be such a fkn asshole ranting on a hippie vid and trying to sound intelligent. Thats all you fkn stoners are good for- talkin shit and tryin to be hip. ....or trying to figure out how to shave yr pits and wash yr hair. ....takes a while huh?

[Skoomaheadmrmush]

@NoRosesForMe your argument was irrelevant good job making yourself look like an imbecile and empowering stoners everywhere thanks

[threeby8887]

@Garboho '68 Dead is so good, you don't need to blaze. It already gives you a natural high. :)

[MrGuitarman187]

@Garboho well for me when i blaze i get totally paranoid and introspective so it doesn't work for me. But ones mans medicine is one mans poison. I used to love smoking but it changed for me after a while

[phileesarah]

Was'nt it great when they turned there back's,faced amps & turned up real loud !

[AzathothianBrew]

Yeah! Those were the daze...

[jasonadams93]

fuck yea, been a touring fool since , 84--- seems rather like thee gnewbie,butte yettie,. still diggin'

[Superchacho83]

o yea

one of my favorites

[pdondini]

wonderful. thank you.

[moshwangles]

no problem, have a nice day.

[Mtdeadhead312]

Im really diggin this jam.... i love all their music that pretty much goes 1o min. and longer.! :

[cavemanfarts]

If you guys love this. Listen to "The Fool" by Quicksilver Messenger Service.

Great spanish song to listen to.

I don't think it's on here tho. :/

[WEIR4EVER]

WELL well well! I never thought i'd hear this except coming out of my own mouth...; You are so right, The Fool is the ultimate gem... been thinking of doing a vid for it since a while but i would hate cutting it to fit... Already did that w a 3 part Mona ....

then again.... i just might do it. Got lots of recent images from Spain, an excellent excuse. Mmmm ya got me thinking

[kevin988901]

[SteveSparx]

Exquisite

[freenow73]

[AaronT611]

PSYCHEDELIC WARRIORS

DEAD FOR LIFE

[desolationrow]

1/20/68 Eureka Municipal Auditorium. Arguably one of the best Spanish Jams available

[TrailerNo9]

Great picture of Garcia. He looks ready for anything.

[1177rr]

Peyote and Shroomz?

Nice combo!

[shroomangel]

You won't find bands nowadays who would attempt to play a gig whilst peaking on pure Owlsey.

[adamanlyman]

...maybe some really kind shoomz,...but not 'cid,...at least not the kind there is today...( um...pure speculation...dig?)

[unmegaface]

mostly due to the lack of patient audiences with a high attention span if you ask me, me and my bass player love jamming way off into the wilderness, our audiences don't. Thinking about it, maybe we suck lol

[leadzeppbelly]

am sure you don't dude. I play banjo, piano, bass and acoustic (all averagely) but when my mate plays bass and i play electric guitar for jamming we go off into our own world

[Mtdeadhead312]

thats the best way to do it man!!

[WEIR4EVER]

A sign of our time's fast and furious consumerism methinks.... Seek new audience! Bestaluck

[TheBackOfTheBoat]

@unmegaface dude the fact that no one has a fucking attention span anymore is the reason why all media today sucks- not just music but movies, TV, and literature as well.

[PinkFloydrulez]

I'd love to give it a shot.

[kcor]

i love how it just keeps building up

sssssssssoooooooooo good

[ncbloom]

i think its unlikely any members of black sabbath ever heard this. man these pre '70 jams are absurd. totally storming heaven. when people talk about the modern incarnations of "the dead" i have to bite my tonge. i have lots of respect for the other members but really capt. trps was the fuckin man. every thing he touched turned to gold. untill, that is , he touched to much gold. alas troubled souls produce the best art."never could reach it just slips away but i try"

[CadillacL]

Simply beautiful. Some would hear this as noise but, its beautiful, intense. I was SO

born in the wrong time (1971). I've loved late 60s/early 70s music since my teens. LOVE the Grateful Dead. Thanks for posting Happy 2009!

[UnkWilly]

Thank you, sir!

[moshwangles]

no problem man, have a nice day : )

[timhorpo]

you know i really hate audio songs unoccompanied by the real video effects. However i just love this shit by jerry that i will handle some jpg shit instead of some live shit. God i love the dead. Next week i'm gonna get a marching bear tattoo. i must post it yes??????????

[v8moottorisaha]

this stuff blew my fucking mind!

[911makesmesick]

this is very special

[CRACKtakular]

oh man this shit is heavy. i wish i was there

[MrCrowley1018]

this is badass

[moshwangles]

u couldnt be more right mrcrowley

[TDKIII]

check out Bo Diddley's "Spanish Guitar" from 1955; it sounds like it could've influenced this, as well as many other psychadelic bands, surf bands and many to follow

[jmerizar]

wonder if Sabbath was influenced by this recording...

[moshwangles]

wouldnt rlly know cause i dont listen to sabbath, but the dead in my opinion are one of the most influencial bands ever due to their combination of styles and the broadness of their appeal

[jmerizar]

check out Planet Caravan and Electric Funeral from the Paranoid album on Youtube.
