[oldtony100]

Anyone that listens to this an still criticizes Jerry's playing is an absolute moron.

[BooBoo1005x]

Love the lyrics 

[johnmitchel1958]

Was there ever a time they weren't great? Tight as BALLS!

[rastamandan124]

Thank you

whoa !

[PatDog949]

No more time to tell how, this is the season of what,

Now is the time of returning with our thought

Jewels polished and gleaming.

Now is the time past believing the child has relinquished the rein,

Now is the test of the boomerang tossed in the night of redeeming.

[PatDog949]

Underfoot the ground is patched

With arms of ivy wrapped around the manzanita,

Stark and shiny in the breeze.

Wonder who will water all the children of the garden

When they sigh about the barren lack of rain and

Droop so hungry neath the sky.

William Tell has stretched his bow till it won't stretch

No furthermore and/or it may require a change that hasn't come before.

[PatDog949]

High green chilly winds and windy vines

In loops around the twisted shafts of lavender,

They're crawling to the sun.

[philsteakfreeman]

Is six more seconds of this song too much to ask?!?! Really...

[sunshinedaydream64]

@philsteakfreeman Hahaha....if it was 17 seconds longer it would be 11:11:) Cheers!

11.11.11.11.11  Nice

[adrianlitvinoff]

Joyous! And would that be TC on organ I wonder?

[wangson]

@adrianlitvinoff yup i think it was the tom constanten era too. the 11 is made triumphant with that organ!

[hayduke1969]

All music should be in 11/8 time. It would force us all to dance more funky.

Happy 11.11.11 everyone.

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

must listen to 11 times today

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

this song is all i've been thinking about for the past few weeks! looks like I'm not alone!

One of the best Pigpen inclusions on any Dead track I have heard! Thanks for this track!

[BeReal65]

The mix really gives you some sweet Pigpen sounds!

[AliIKarimi]

Since the Dead there has not been a band with such a frantic passion for music and its creation.

[Jsizzler2]

@AliIKarimi I thought so too until I heard The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

[drtymrty]

More Cowbell!!

[kariaudar]

The Grateful Dead: the most fantastically creative and inspired ensemble in the history of popular music.
