some vintage footage Part2 of 3 I found this footage on a old CD i had.Dont know to much about the it . If some one has some intel on this footage do tell.
@3ertin The Dead played EVERY kind of music. This particular song has some Country Blues elements to it, but so what? It was rather psychedelic at the time for a bunch of liberal hippies to be playing music that was once only for die hard conservatives. The Dead helped to make it hip. . But anyways,, The Dead got REALLY psychedelic in their jams. The Dead were not a country band. You haven't listened to them enough.
When I was 21 I read The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test by Thom Wolf. It had some inspiring descriptions of Grateful Dead concerts, the schoolbus Further with a outdoor soundsysteem, day glow orange paint and acid tests. I thought it was one of the most inspiring books I ever read. Then I heard the music of Grateful Dead and I remember being really dissapointed. What a boring redneck music. Seeing this clip only confirms it. In my mind it was far out psychedelic and experimental. Imagion that.
Great video DUDE! This is live footage of the Grateful Dead in Toronto, Canada I think its from 1971 Festival Express tour which was a train ride threw Canada mostly for the performers but pitstops to perform and get more booze ha, dont drink the Canadian Club, unless you wanna trip. Still there was a free show demanded by the CRAZY CROWD trying to bust into the show, so the Grateful Dead did a free show to get the crazy crowd settledown.
