Nice to see Jerry Garcia in top of form - before becoming a pathetic junkie, I mean...
-
Pigpen looks ill already, but he still rocks.
-
@crusher you are right -- thats what happens when you get old and start forgetting. It IS an Otis tune which I remembered from the 60s but got mixed up with who did itl
-
@Mtdeadhead312 i love pigpen too! but the dead did ok after his death in 1973.
-
@Aviv52 wasn't a sam and dave tune. it was an ottis redding tune.
-
do a quick search on your computer. the black crowes version came out in 1990. this was 1970. the dead covered an otis redding song which he recorded in 1967 (wasn't released until after his death in 68). chris robinson (the lead singer for the black crowes) was 1 when this song was origionally recorded. so their version would be a cover too.
-
Great video...You should change the caption though. The Grateful Dead are NOT covering a Black Crowes song. It's an Otis Redding song that the Grateful Dead made more well known. The Black Crowes covered it several decades later.

@phillyphil690 There is footage of Easy Wind available on YT. Good version.

Pig Pen representin'. Greatness. Too bad Easy Wind isn't here too.

Really? A cover of the Black Crowes' Hard to Handle in 1970? Try Otis Redding. The Crowes formed in 1989. Fantastic post though!! Great movie.

This was a cover of a Sam and Dave tune. The Black Crowes were toddlers when this was recorded.
