Fire On The Mountain - Fire Rap Version - Mickey Hart - Unreleased Jerry Garcia
From GD Radio Hour #500
And of course, we have the legendary unreleased Mickey Hart "rap" version of "Fire on the Mountain," from an unreleased 1974 studio recording that featured Jerry Garcia on guitar and I'm not sure who else. I got a copy of M Dung's reel, which he got from Mickey's master. This track really oughta see the light of day officially some time.
Enjoy!

thank u... a lot.. it goes full circle to everything
This seems like some 5 in the morning shit mickey and jerry came up with after staying up all night doing coke.
More like straight Fire on the track! I think this is better than the live versions.
Fun version
I saw Mickey rapping on Friday at the Sphere in Vegas and wanted to see some footage. Had no idea it went this far back!
I was there too and had been waiting in anticipation to catch this version of Fire after hearing this last summer. Mickey didn’t disappoint!! 🔥

I always knew the Grateful Dead invented hip hop 🙌🏼
This is 5 years before rappers delight.
I think i like this better than the released version
SHOULD HAVE STayed unreleased! SAD.
I love this! It used to be a filler on 1st set tapes of different shows we would get in the 80’s, i love Jerry’s laid back guitar!
Pretty sure everything is Mickey besides the obvious Jerry guitar.
I always loved this version!
Does Yeat finally have competition⁉️⁉️⁉️ Nah but seriously, he spitting bars. Heck this is probably the first white rapper track. So ahead of its time is genuinely insane.
Oh yeah! This tape was given to me by a beloved friend back in the day! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
When Jerry said "Rap isn't music," this is what he was thinking of. 😂
Raps not music! Makes a rap song 😂
THIS isn't what Jerry was talking about! he meant all the later cop killing, gun stuff type rap
@@Tamerellathere’s plenty of cop-killing, gun stuff Grateful Dead songs
@@TamerellaI don’t think anyone but Jerry knew what he meant but I think he was referring to the production of rap music versus anything he does.
@@anthonyroussis you’re right, only Jerry knew

This is innovation here..get down Saturday night and John Mayer what? I found that to be a little off..here body's a wonder land I guess?
I have never herd mickey sing? Wow rat trap? What the
Wow you guys must have been hammered when you did this?
Play it back clean 😂
this new ICP goes hard as fuck
Please never let this post be taken down. Fantastic! Thanks for uploading.
A copy of this ripped through NYC in '83. We would drive through the village blasting this from my old Dodge (crappy car, great sound system). This was the time of the emergence of Grandmaster Flash and other pioneers of rap, fit in well.
some tight shit, has anyone heard that “Estimated Jam” at a 74’ sound check?
drop a link!
This is straight out of early Beastie Boys whiteboy rap lol. But. 10 years earlier... This world is strange!
Why does Mickey sound like a member of the beastie boys
Man, I'd love an official release of one of Mickey's rap versions. I'd listen to it all the time!
What amazes me, is that Mickey cut this in the studio in 73 San Francisco !!! He’s truly the originator of Rap, which Jerry said in an interview ; “ it may be a form of art. But it’s not music. “ Gotta say, if all Rap performers did the Grateful Dead, I would actually give it a shot Lol 1:01
th-cam.com/video/w2tmegLVvN8/w-d-xo.html Jerry was wrong however. Jimi hendrix used to jam with a guy named lightning rod. As far as I can tell this is the earliest rap. 1969
@@DistantWailer , Jerry wrong? Nah it was his own opinion, can’t be wrong about your own opinions. Even when they are wrong technically, they’re still right, because they belong to you, and there is a Bill of Rights, Constitutional Rights of Freedom of Speech & the pursuit of happiness. And , Jerry has always made me happy. He ain’t heavy he’s my Brother. Jerry’s Kids ⚡️🥀⚡️
@@ericmeacham9532 Mickey was not the originator of rap. I mean I can prove it right here and I just did. Listen to this and this was before mickey was doing rap
@@ericmeacham9532 There was a whole rap scene going on as early as the late fifties in france
@@DistantWailer ~ you must’ve missed the part where I agreed with you. Nevertheless, I still agree with Jerry Garcia. Rap is not music, it is an art form though, never been my kinda art style. The Grateful Dead does it for me, even Bobby Womack if ya’ want to explore genres….
Mickey Hart invented Hippie Hop

Ha, I got a chuckle out of this.
This is nuts…and I love it!!!
Amazing!! Mickey rapped a verse at tonights (july 2,2023) Boulder show.
I'm here for it. That shit fired me up so much!
Exactly why I looked this up!
it was iconic
Blew my mind! What a great 3 nights… and the drone swarm!
That was epic. I still can't believe that happened.
I thought there was fire on the mountain before but this is actually fire.
Thats some str8 up G gangsta shit.
Hidden gem! Easter egg
This really dispels the notion that the Grateful Dead was a 60s nostalgia act. These guys were cutting edge.
Yes they were
I don't know anyone who would consider the dead to be a nostalgia act at all
@@floridaboyabroadi wasnt alive at the time so i cant be sure lol but im assuming many people outside of the dead fanbase viewed them this way by the time touch of grey came out. either way its bullshit to call them a nostalgia act.
hahahahaha!
best demo on the mountain
.........so it WASN'T "Uncle Sidney" kickin' in when I heard this in the parking way WAY back!! LOL
Has anyone ever seen a vinyl pressing of this?
So Jerry wouldn't call this music?
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I haven’t finished listening to this, but the correct lyric in the second verse is “wound in barbed wire, hell I ain’t sore, only hurts when I laugh or roll on the floor” that’s what it sounds like to me and it kind of makes sense if you think about it
I love this version! I first heard this in the early 70's on what was at the time a very progressive FM station in New York, WNEW-FM. Somehow they got a copy of this and would play it occasionally; it was supposedly from an as yet uncompleted Mickey Hart album. I also clearly remember that sometimes they would, late at night, play the entire Dark Star from Live/Dead. What a time!
Predates Rappers Delight just sayin
Pigpen rapping
As a life long dead head, this feels like I've just unlocked a hidden level in life
Dead and co did it live the other night🤣.
Yeah man This a DEEP cut ✌️💀🌹
@@lve6211 thats how i discovered this shit and im loving it
The title of “ fire on the mountain” is in reference to the book “ I Ching” BTW.
Please tell me you know about the Talking Fox and the water of life.
Let Mickey sing
Mickey invented rap.
No, Mickey didn’t invent it. It was around, but still underground. Like punk, grunge were b4 record companies heard about them and cashed in on “The Next Big Thing” All the boys were all listening to other stuff going on in music. So it’s not surprising that Mickey came across this type of spoken word with cadence.
@@Oldcrow77, guess I’ll have to take your word for this. I’m not up on punk , grungy , and certainly not rap. When I was in facility 27 months in 80’s , rap was not even close to this level of quality, and I was a DeadHead who hated rap. 3:30
@@ericmeacham9532 The first popular character commercial rap was probably this But certainly not the first rap. Just the first to get a record deal probably that called it rap. You will see in the comments that lots of folks have their own ideas about it.
@@ericmeacham9532 th-cam.com/video/mcCK99wHrk0/w-d-xo.html
@@ericmeacham9532 this is probably the first commercialized rap. It came out in 79 I remember living in SoCal in mid 80’s when rap really came on the scene/ radio And thinking what is this shit?!💩 th-cam.com/video/mcCK99wHrk0/w-d-xo.html
if Mercy's a business... I wish it for you!
I don’t know if I’d call this rap, it’s more similar to the spoken vocals Charlie Daniels, Arlo Guthrie, Laurie Anderson and others sometimes used. Either way, pretty damned creative take on this song for it’s time, without question.
It's as much rap as rapper's delight.
This is rap the same way MC5 is punk, like 10 years too early.
