Me And My Uncle

another Grateful Dead tune, though not a Garcia/Hunter original; our friend Onno plays the banjo. there are a few slip-ups in the lyrics due to me orally misinterpreting certain lines ("the winner takes the hand"), but I promise I'll get it right next time!

This is a very good rendition of the John Phillips tune. One of my favorites and covered very well by you guys.

Thanks again, Tim! Have you produced your own version yet?

[TDS4UT]

This is a great cover guys. I have saved John Phillips, Joni Mitchell, the Grateful Dead and your version to learn the song myself. Seeing the three of you play reminds me of Norman Rockwell painting the musicians in the barber shop. Nice mix of acoustic guitar, banjo and bass. Nice work.

@TDS4UT Thanks a lot for your appreciation! Good luck playing this great ballad with its surprising ending. Just to get you going, the chords are mostly G to Em, with G to A in the penultimate line of the verse, and a G via Bm to Em on the last line. Show us the result on YouTube! Kind regards,

I would like to see you all try out some Garcia/Grishman covers; maybe some SHADY GROVE! You'd rock it out!

OMG- love it! I love the additional 'bluegrassyness'... you could even add a slap bass and a whiskey jug... but really... GREAT!!!!!!!!!

Great cover lads.

If you don't mind I send my version.

Take it away if you don't like it.
