This is soooo hitting me right now, first time I've ever listened to this song stoned.
Pig beltin out with his gritty voice, Jerry and Bobby hammering out funky fucking licks,
Mickey and Billy and Phil GROOOOVING the fuck out oh my god, this couldn't be better!!! OH my.
Also, if you feel the same way about this song, follow me at my classic psychedelic/rock blog at

Think it was Jerry who said "at his best, sometimes we were just Pigpen's backup band". Nice

Aaahhhhh, Pigpen;););)

@gantock A bunch of young people taking drugs, rebeling agaist their parents. The reason the sixties were like no other decade before is because there were way more young people than had been in previous decades, the baby boomers. There are alot of true hearted musician in this world still, your just not looking hard enough, if you think its all dead. People still get inspired by the same music that inspired Jerry. You need a list?

@clarkewi I totally agree and the more I hear Brent sing, the more I love him too. The Dead are really special. There is no doubt. I just feel like Pig doesn't always get his due. What I would give to hear him sing a song live.
No one could be further from Manson than gentle Pig. You're just seeing the surface visual cues. Which is...just wrong, dude.

Love how Pigpen and Garcia play off each other, especially beginning at 1:40.
