You know what made the Dead great, above all other things? They loved what they did. They may not have been the best musicians, and they certainly had their good and bad years. But if you, as a listener, place any value on soul and emotion, the Dead provided. Jerry and Bob lived what they sang. They meant every word of every song.

What's this "get it"/"don't get it" shit. If the music moves you..great! If not..move on. If a 13yr old wants to listen to the GD...that is great,for whatever reason.I can't help but think that when I was 13,wanted to check out some Benny Goodman and was told-"you don't get it"...if I would have the collection of BG's music I have today. With having an "open ear" comes the responsibility of an "open mind". Peace, J

Even before now, the Grateful Dead was singing their version of the Rippln tune for today. There is still time to join my team before the current window closes. Ripple-one.c

"American Beauty". the album "Ripple" is on is my favorite. Timeless lyrics from 1970! :)

"get me some Slash"?? Seriously... #1 he's over rated, #2 wannabe rockers rave over him, #3 he's a different style of music #4 he's a different era... Slash would not fit in this band as he is hard rock these are more folk rock.

Glad folks agree. Albeit I would say '80 was one of their peaks, they were great in different ways, till the end. Peace!

Thank you, this is what I try and explain when I defend them in their later years. The sound isn't always what counts when it comes to music, it's the meaning that's important. The Grateful Dead didn't play music though, they swelled with emotion at every seam :)
