The Grateful Deads final rendition of Black Muddy river from their final show at Soldier Field 7-9-95; enjoy :)

Also, if ya listen closely near the end, you can hear the person filming saying "thank you" to a person that gave him a fresh battery for his camera :)

  • Very nice!..... I was in a coma from a car accident back in 1997. A friend of mine put a walkman on my ears with some of my favorite Dead tunes......shortly afterward I woke up.

    I have a lot to be grateful for.....

  • what a amazingly sad, beautifully haunting rendition of this incredible song - all the more important for its place in history (so close to the end).

  • I hope our love for each other "rolls on forever"

  • this show is always so sad

  • read Phil's book "searching for the sound"..it tells of a Garcia who'd been in serious mental and physical decline since their last studio album...RIP Jerry!!! Thanks for the memories...

  • Jerry was messing around with words here and there but how strange it is that if you listen very close he says "I will walk alone by the LAST muddy river" the first time around! Oh Jerry, so many tears... at that show, shows before that, and ever since. Bless you all!

    Well stated. 8)

  • it seems as if they knew this was gonna be the end.. the sound of Jerry's voice.. its... i.d.k. is it all in my head?

  • I was there. So many roads was best. Box of rain was last song. How fitting the last line sung was "Such a long,long time to be gone and a short time to be there". Thank you for a real good time.

  • @badluckhoppy No Box of Rain was the last song... Phil went into it after BMR b/c he "Couldn't stand the thought of ending the tour with one of Jerry's most sorrowful songs."
