"There was Cowboy Neal at the wheel of the bus to never never land" refers to friend of the band Neal Cassady- the inspiration for the character Dean Moriarty in Jack Kerouac's book On the Road. Cassady (successful at navigating buses without actually looking where he's going) and the Dead spent lots of time with Ken Kesey- who wrote One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Many of the band's earlier gigs were as the house band at Kesey's place where $1 gets you into party with spiked punch. The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe documents this and the psychedelic scene.
Such a crazy story. The Beatnik poets of the 50's influenced the hippies and the Grateful Dead started out as the house band for Acid parties. The documentary Long Strange Trip is pretty good.
This was the first song Bob Weir ever wrote. Jerry sings the Cryptical Envelopment "You know he had to die" verses and Bob sang the (That's It For) The Other One "Spanish lady comes to me" verses, usually the only section played at shows. When they were making this album in the studio, Bob asked the engineers to record the sound of "thick air". One of them quit.
Nice to meet you, Bob

From Wikipedia: Warner Bros. executive Joe Smith was noted as characterizing Anthem of the Sun as "the most unreasonable project with which we have ever involved ourselves.”
Anthem of the Sun is probably the best sonic representation of the psychedelic experience ever put down on tape. Alligator is one of my all-time favorite studio Jerry tracks, and the jam in New Potato Caboose is simply out of this world.
That album had a Jerry quote "we mixed it for the hallucinations, it worked"
This stuff is drenched in LSD, contact high.
The base track for this song was actually recorded live in March 1968, and interlaced with studio tracks and the referred to the process as "mixing for the hallucinations."
Thanks for the info Jeff!
LSD dead at it's finest
This is some dense experimental stuff. Studio weirdness mixed with live tracks.
I've been a Deadhead for over 50 years and this remains my favorite album as well as live song. Even though seeing them play Dark Star was what hooked me. For me, this is the best example of psychedelic music ever put to record. Thanks for reviewing it. You're the first I'm aware to do it.
We’re glad you enjoyed, thanks so much for watching!

When I really want to enter into the Garcia zone I put this one on. His playing is ridiculous, Exhibit A for his part as greatest guitarist ever. Lightning fast, yet with enormous soul. Amazing!
Thanks!
"I could stare at this album art work all day"........I remember a few "staring sessions" during lysergic listening periods. The Dead was searching at this time, and it shows on these early albums. It's all essential. This became an incredible live "vehicle" song for the band!
I had the album for more than 10 years before Irealized that there are portraits of the band
When Anthem of the Sun came out in the 60's it was a favorite to drop acid and listen to. ☮️
Sounds like a good time!
It was a still a favorite for that in the 80's! haha
Jerry Garcia tells a story about playing this music live. As usual, he was on acid and walked off stage after the set ended. He was pissed because he felt like the entire set was a huge struggle. He grabbed his bass player, Phil Lesh and threw him down a flight of stairs.
Months later, he was listening to that live set of music to make a collage for this album. The set he thought was a disaster was cracklin with energy. At that point he came to the realization that his personal experience playing the music didn't translate to the actual quality of the music produced.
Excuse me... THREW Phil L down a flight of stairs while tripping (as usual) on acid?
I grew up in SoCal in the 60s-70s (born in 54), ate a lot of LSD, and followed the Dead (short of being a DeadHead), but CherryGarcia tossed bandmates down stairs?
Please elaborate!

Wow,@@JackCerro! I wonder what he means by a LITTLE flight of stairs though...
@@fredkrissman6527 it was like 3 steps. And he didn't hurt Phil.
@@fredkrissman6527 Jerry mentions it himself in the interviews for The Grateful Dead Movie
That's FOUR Grateful Deads playing at once and mixed in the studio. Four live performances mashed together!
Oh man you guys are getting some really interesting GD requests haha
In concert "The Other One" was mostly just the middle section and it was one of their most enduring jam vehicles. Nice catch on those jazzy drums, a trademark of Billy K and Hart's style!
Love the drums
I think Bill was the one who really brought Jazz chops and groove to the drumming.
And this, boys and girls, is acid rock.
Sounds like an airplane made of wet cardboard trying to take off. I love it
How to keep time and pitch while simultaneously being on Acid (LSD) and Pot. From the band who didn't even want to be signed to a record label because that was selling out to The Man, and would distract them from their live performance schedule.
Well, how about that...This studio version is about as basic as they could make this song at the time. The middle part was really a vehicle for the band to go off and explore with, returning to the theme periodically to check in, take inventory, then take off again. There are live versions that went 15, 20, or 30 minutes. And it's a song that stayed in their play list their entire career. If your into that late 60's, face melting, psychedelic exploration, you might be ready for Dark Star from the Live Dead album...or the St Steven that follows it...or The Eleven that follows that...or the Lovelight that follows that. I mean, once you get in the groove, why stop?
Love it! They're great!
More Grateful Dead! I love how you guys break it down. I’d recommend something like dark star -> st Stephen -> the eleven from Live Dead if you really wanna hear amazing instruments and trippy. Or Scarlett begonias -> fire on the mountain from Cornell 77! Please please!
this was a crazy recording....grabbing pieces from various shows, overlapping them etc.....combined w some extreme tripping. wild stuff
I love this recording(s). It rocks surprisingly hard for the Dead, too. Reminds me of Tony Iommi layering guitar solos, just total chaos
Lush, lavish lysergic lunacy. Love it. If Jerry was Captain Trips, what rank did the others aiding and abetting this visionquest/voyage hold?
Thoughtful, perceptive remarks as always. Cheers.
🙂

Sifa, you articulate the song perfectly.
:)
LOVE THA DEAD!!
Since you guys really loved this, I'd like to recommend, simply for your own enjoyment, not a reaction video-- is listening to the live version of this same song from 03/01/69, live at the Fillmore. An older head turned me onto that recording 30 years ago, and it was a mind-blowing show. He described it as twin tornados spiraling upward, and he was right. The studio version pales in comparison.
Thanks for doing this song, it's one of my old favorites!!🎶✌💜

Thanks for that!
For a long time I thought this song was 'coming around ' because I only knew it from concerts. Of course I wasn't even 16 yet and hadn't really started my vinyl collection. Come to think of it, I thought Franklin's tower was 'roll away the dew'.
The key thing about this album was the original Vinyl version sounded great. Then it was re-released with a remix by Phil Lesh that improved a couple of things, but really destroyed some of my favourite bits. I believe the original mix is again available these days. I think it's what I get on spotify. I spent years rarely listening to it, because the only version I had was the crappy CD version.
"Heat came down and busted me for smiling on a cloudy day." Bob Weir chucked a water balloon at a cop. Cool lyrics ensued.
The bass player Phil Lesh is hardly ever mentioned but he is by far and above one of most exceptional there ever was. In this cut he is a driving force and his timing combined with the drums is unmatched!!
Lesh never played bass, or any electric instrument for that matter until Garcia handed him a bass and said here you go. And he learned it in something like two weeks.
Loving these - keep having fun with album cuts. Think about Eyes of the World or maybe Brokendown Palace
Thanks Jim!
Love it - have to brush up on my dead - very psychedelic. A bit creepy at the end
The live version from the Filmore 71 is incredible
That was a very experimental album. If you listen to it you can hear that the studio tracks were blended with more than one live track simultaneously and faded in and out. The Dead were on Warner Bro’s and after Zappa got away with total artistic control the Dead insisted on the same. It sounds like they had a real good time making this album. They had great album covers, check out the cover to their follow up AoxomoxoA
Thanks!
Had I been older and cooler in the the 1980s, I would have made a mixtape with this song going into Pink Floyd's "Time"
If you love the Lysergic side of The Dead, you should check out Dark Star. Beware however, it is an entire album side, and may require repeated listenings, as there is a lot going on.

The bit after that was my favourite part of the whole album - though I don't know it's name, perhaps "The faster we go the rounder we get". It's got the most amazing psychadelic harmonies which are different each time they come in.
This is the album that turned me onto the dead - a gentle calming psychedelia, with some great playing. I've been a deadhead ever since.
Pretty wild for 1967...
How can peePell hate on the Dead, I mean,
I sorta get it , in a weird way, it's an aquired taste,
But how does something so gentle and non - obtrusive evoke such "hate", I guess is my real ponderance
Ego death
Exactly....it's metaphorical..
You two need to react to Terrapin Station - studio version. It is a very different sound for the Dead
Suggest it on our Patreon ❤️
Super weird one.
nice! an off the main stream song
