[CrazyTwiggy36]

Words just can't describe.

[Jpd11261]

This was one of Jerry's finest hours by far..1987 was a fantastic year for him and the band. Soulful...absolutely...Heartfe­lt..Redundant...God I love Jerry...Miss him more every year that passes....

[jaceinspace88]

yes indeed. i think this was a little over a year after he came back from his 5-day diabetic coma...and still, he was always so good at bridging worlds, wasn't he...

[jeffdachef]

This one teared me up, it's like somewhere inside, Jerry was feeling his journey coming to an end and it came out in his craft!

[ghostdog7575]

if LSD burned neurons, and lead you to play like that I don't want no more neurons...

[TheDeadhead56]

[CloudClimber7]

This performance gives me the chills.

[KalahariKAri]

[c1nikon]

[Insanebeastbear]

Jerry Garcia > lil Wayne. By a longshot.

[Lasercrew420]

Namaste

[Turgorful]

It's funny, Jer' said that one if the things that he wanted to do before he died was to actually learn to play the guitar. He wasn't joking. I think he never really thought of himself as having gotten to where he wanted to be, musically. We all benefitted from that constant striving on his part.

[TehEpicWaffle]

That just brought tears to my eyes.

[clayrad1]

awesome

[GDXPRSS]

jeez, the one person who voted dislike on this video must have been britney spears. :-O

[Marsally]

Did you know that Garcia got the name "Grateful Dead" for the Book of Tobit? I think that's true anyway.

[Mezzapa]

Sorry buddy.

[CreationPhotography]

this guy is anti 2nd amendment  INFOWARS google that

[BarreraMusic]

never sounded better! 

[lbart325]

brought tears to my eyes

[rotolo]

joan baez will always have so much class!)

[gratefulpanic5th]

simply...beautiful

[gurdjieff66]

For a Christmas concert, they really could have worked up some better, more seasonally appropriate songs. They must not have had time to practice, and just decided to play the same old moldy tunes they all knew. deadheads don't care anyway.

[wtf0987]

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I like Dylan doing it more. I still think Guns N Roses version was the best though. To each his own I guess, but thanks for posting it.

[bassbob42]

A great version, soulful

[willburr]

Jerry's solo on this is amazing. Boil him down, on acoustic, and you still have that magnetic vortex that he could create, over and over...

thanks forever, rest in peace, go with love

[TheHoverman]

Thats the best version of H.door I've ever heard, Joan ,Jerry and John thats beautiful.

[MILISA99]

Best version of this song I have ever heard. Jerry had been living this song for a long time.

[bktallguy]

jerry sounds good with a proper female backup...not screechy donna jean

[howapel]

I happen to like screechy donna jean myself.

[roflcookies]

brent mydland's better :D

[artaylor5615]

yeah he is, check out the cover of the weight (1990 performance), jerry, brent, phil and bob all sing a verse

it's awesome

[PhillyCheech]

Simply beautiful, melodic, and sweet

[1999wharfrat]

So sorry to see both John Kahn and Jerry gone. They are missed!

[ShaniMcCarthy]

Beautiful Love. Thank you!

[teddycozmik]

Rest In Peace. Thanks for all your music and talent handed to the listeners who appreciate every minute of your voice and presence.

[GracedGosling]

[MrSpiritCoach]

So damn soulful. Brings tears. Play on Jerry, heaven appreciates you.

[Isayrow]

So sweet.

As MarkSteve used to say, "Slip Sip Slip Slippin' on the Kitchen Floor. . ."

[boxcardoor]

Keep on knocking and it will be opened.....God bless you Jerry

[katsimbalis7]

Jerry Garcia vive no sub-conciente das mentes libertárias & Anarquistas. Por isso devemos bater na porta da percepção. Yeh Man!

[dmandarkstar]

Would you happen to know who sings the "Grateful Dead Christmas Carol? Its to the tune of Come All Ye Faithful.
