One of my favorite Jerry songs. Only Jerry could make two chords over and over again so beautiful
This version is from the View From the Vault DVD if you are interested.
Also, this is not Brent Mydland's last show as a few commenters thought, Brent's last show was less than a month later though at the World Music Theater.
Here is a link to it: www.archive.org/details/gd1990... Hope you enjoy :) - เพลง
It actually hurts. I saw these guys many hundreds of times with my brother, and when the music started it was if there was no other world, nothing else existed. You could just dance, sway and bliss out, meet someone's eyes and break out in grins or at times find tears running down your cheeks out of pure happiness. We lost Jerry and I lost my brother and life goes on, but there is a great void where something wonderful once existed that is now filled with cherished memories. Love you both, guys.
I’m sorry you lost your brother, friend 🌹⚡️💀
@@summerwilliams3999 Thank you, Summer. Best always......Jos
@@summerwilliams3999 I did also but it was a long time ago.
Your review made me tear up because I totally agree and understand your sentiment. God bless this band.

Been listening to Jerry for hours and now I'm just crying. There's no one else who can reach into your heart and soul, hold you for a while, not in any hurry, never rushing a single note, and then gently walk away and disappear into the stars.
I can relate. I am near tears hearing the purity of Jerry. Beautiful.
Love his voice
Wow. so well put. Thanks for that.
Naomi
Wow, great response. He really is like a Zen Monk
Church wouldn't let me play this at my husband's memorial, so my son in law blasted it in the parking lot as everyone was going in. Dave is once again your audience Jerry. Peace.
What??? I would change venues! This is a wonderful hymn!
Definitely get a new church
That's why churches blow. Beautiful choice. A tearjerker.
Are u kidding me, God damned organized religion! God Bless the Grateful Dead and your hubby! Maybe he's at a show up there. 💘
Two years later and that church still sucks. Sing them bid you goodnight tongue in cheek
I am 15 years old and the dead is just beautiful to me. Ever since I can remember my dad has played the dead for me in the car; on the way to baseball practice, on the way back, and whenever he gets anywhere near the radio. I have learned to love the dead and what they have put out. Standing on the Moon is by far my favorite song by them, and it brings back so many memories of me and my dad. When I grow old I know the dead will for sure be played to my kids in the car and then to their kids as well. ❤️
My dad played the dead... Later i fell in love with the dead... I now play them when I miss my dad... When I miss certain others... Now I play them for my kids. And the cycle will continue. The circle is unbroken,.like the wheel
Bless you.... Keeping the music we hold so dearly alive......my almost 9 year old knows all the songs, surprises me still when I hear him start singing along...... He will always connect this music with his dad, long after I'm gone..
Brought up my daughter and son on a steady diet of the dead. I’m 75. Still listen to some Jerry everyday. Thankful.
And don't you forget it sonny
Jerry is still AMAZING. Just glad we have this. Love it ❤
I was standing about 20 feet from Jerry while he sang this, it makes me cry watching this again. I went to over 100 shows and this one 7-6-90 still stands in my memory as the best concert i ever saw. I was in the 4th row or so straight out in front of Jerry and Brent. RIP to two of the baddest mofos ever to hit a stage , Jerry Garcia and Brent Mydland
right on
Shay stadium 94 I think awesome awesome show funny don't remember the end though
What an amazing memory... i missed seeing jerry by a few years as i was only 13 when he passed but my sister was on tour 91 to 94 so i loved the dead.. for that im grateful
gonna cry reading this. you had to be there. i was lucky enough to catch the boys quite a few times right around this time when they were on fire hammering on all cylinders. goosebump chills just typing this with the memories hitting me. RIP JERRY
This is the stuff I didn't understand as a child, and now that the Fatman is no longer here, I wish I had appreciated it more then. My mother's favorite song. Gonna work on it again tonight in honor of it all. WALSTIB (~);=}
Jerry Garcia opened my heart so many times and listening to his music at 66 years old still works what a beloved person in my life through his music, WOW!!! Being a tight-hearted Scorpio, with a Virgo rising I love his big-hearted Leo energy that rules the heart, Leo actually does lead the heart in the actual astrology.
I have been blessed to have existed and travled at the same time Jerry did! ❤
Jeanene Brunken , what a time it was...❤️
Oh what a long strange trip I had... this time prepared me for everything else in life🦋
@@karma2893 I thank God i lived my life with the Dead as my major musical influence for my entire lifetime.
Jeanene Brunken amen!!! Me too , as I cherish every show I have ever seen. I listen to the GD everyday. Jerry is and always has been inspiring. Thank you Jerry!!!!!
Me also💜😊 Saw them in Ohio and was always in the parking lot when they are in Philadelphia getting nitrous oxide balloons among other things
I feel sorry for the people that choose to dislike this song they must have no soul
MISS YOU JERRY!!!!!
jamman6565 they have no love for short shorts ✌️
Only thing I don't like is there is not a ❤ icon to press
F those people. Don't need them anyway!
@@bgjkjnroghubggugh2159
Thank you Brian 👊🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Agreed!
Now this song feels like Jerry telling us how much he misses us from above.
agreed
Bryce Coleman 😢💔
nice one
Damn
That comment gave me chills. You are so right! Right on!!!
I believe Jerry's greatest gift was his voice, his vocals. Pretty amazing when you consider all his other talents.
Yes, he was one of the all time great singers. You can either agree with me or not, I wouldn’t waste a second arguing it.
Play this at my funeral
me too
Black Muddy River for me!
Good times.
SOTM,BMR,Hell in a bucket on my list.
I love it! I've made a list! Peace!!!!!
"Be with you" - no three words more powerful
I LOVE YOU
LOVE EACH OTHER
Thats where it gets me every time.
Thanks for posting this. I can't really put into words how much I love this music and the man playing it. I never met him. I never got to see him play it live. It's still the music that reaches right through me and gets hold of my soul. It makes me laugh,smile,cry,sing and dance. Sometimes all at the same time. Thanks for posting this. Thanks everyone else for listening and commenting. TH-cam/music saved my soul I'm a drug addict living clean and sober still going to shows to see Phil and Bobby and enjoying them even more than ever without the use of drugs or alcohol. Still love everyone and everything and don't feel any different than anyone else that is there. I'm simply singing thank you for a real good time
Good for you. I've got a few 24 hours in AA, been to a number of shows sober. So good to go to a show and remember it the next day. Here's to many more day sober! Bless you!
I was raised on the Grateful Dead and I wish that I could have met jerry he was one of the most kind hearted people in history Rest In Peace jerry i will always have a massive amount of respect for him
Definitely drugs were a huge neg force for him and many of us. But his main issues (related to drugs of course) were poor diet and exercise habits. He developed diabetes and ended up not being to survive the constant abuse of drugs because of his poor physical state by 1995.
I hear you, but drugs-specifically psychedelics-were an vital catalyst for creating both the Dead's music and live performance structure. Like anything, drugs are inherently neither good nor evil--even heroin--it's all about what you do with them that matters. Well, I take that back...crack is pure fucking evil! What a horrible high-5 minutes of semi-bliss, and then you want to claw your eyes out unless you get another hit! Or so I've been told...
Beautiful tribute, TV 4realgoodtime. What you wrote and what you're doing to save your life and keep on enjoying the music. Isn't there a group of sober people at at the concerts? Might help you feel even less alone. Because you are NOT alone. Look how many Deadheads (even if you never saw Jerry, you're in) are here. And we get it. What a sweet, touching post. People here are the best.
Standing on the moon but I rather be with you with you.... rip jerry!
Jerry plays his guitar so delicate in this song, when we all know he can tear it up. I love the different styles he had. I just love Jerry. Period
I believe my cat enjoys being pet with the same philosophy. Although he may _tolerate_ me using more force, when I stroke him gently, he seems to genuinely appreciate the feeling
Amen brother
@@AJ_Deadshow good analogy
These song 🎵 are Timeless and will forever be listened to by those who understand what a wonderful Spirit and Soul Jerry was gifted with and how through his music he created a multitude of generations ❤ who would pass all this love and kindness to others. He still lives within our hearts 💕 forever Grateful for The Grateful Dead!
👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼❤❤⚡⚡
Right On !!! You took the words right out of my mouth, even though you wrote this five months ago, and I just read it five minutes ago!
Built to Last is such an underrated masterpiece of an album.
@@charlie.something built to last has aged like fine wine. it is criminally underrated.
people ride the dick of so many other trash "albums" bc one song is one it they where high on weed the first time they heard it. Built to last is an amazing album
@@charlie.somethingI think it is to some of us older fans, who've become somewhat spoiled or jaded. Every album cannot be "Workingman's Dead" or "American Beauty".
@@larrydaiell An interviewer once asked Don Henley about his newer stuff not being up to snuff --- he replied, 'I can't write Hotel California again'. peace and love
I love this.He was so clear,hard to watch without a tear.where did the years go.I was 19 seemed like Id be young forever.45 now,what a long strange one.These guys are even more important to me now.thanks.
+daniel wysocki I got 5 years on ya an it has flew by..just like yesterday. Miss Jerry and still listen every day.
daniel wysocki ditto, (tear bit) ,very emotionally evocative
ditto
This new Grateful Dead album is so good...oh wait it's over 30 years old....just turned 47 remember the day Touch if Gray came out and thousands of people ruined an amazing scene that was rocking for 20 years prior
Well said brother man well said!
I love this song so much! Perfect for a funeral or memorial service, the words are so profound. The
opening cords send a chill down my spine, every single time. I love you Jerry!
on a back porch in July staring up into heaven the songs of the heart start to sing again! Thank you Jerry!
Standing on the moon
I got no cobweb on my shoe
Standing on the moon
I'm feeling so alone and blue
I see the gulf of Mexico
As tiny as a tear
The coast of California
Must be somewhere over here, over here
Standing on the moon
I see the battle rage below
Standing on the moon
I see the soldiers come and go
There's a metal flag beside me
Someone planted long ago
Old glory standing stiffly
Crimson, white and indigo, indigo
I see all of southeast Asia
I can see El Salvador
I hear the cries of children
And the other songs of war
It's like a mighty melody
That rings down from the sky
Standing here upon the moon
I watch it all roll by, all roll by
Standing on the moon
With nothing else to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I'd rather be with you
Standing on the moon
I see a shadow on the sun
Standing on the moon
The stars go fading one by one
I hear a cry of victory
And another of defeat
A scrap of age old lullaby
Down some forgotten street
Standing on the moon
Where talk is cheap and vision true
Standing on the moon
But I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco
On a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven
At this crescent in the sky
Standing on the moon
With nothing left to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I'd rather be with you, be with you
Thank you. I love following the words
good job Ray
This song not only makes me cry but grabs me by the heart and rips it out. Jerry keeps the song very simple until the final solo so that the emotions and lyrics are the focus. I miss Jerry so much. No one could ever do anything that he does in this song, in this particular recorded version of it especially. I'd rather be with you. Those words get me every time.
one of the best songs to feel secure and in good company while tripping, well truly any song of jerry or the dead! Jerry's voice and guitar have a unique sensivity that makes me feel at a home i never knew before but that was completely familiar and natural when i first felt his energy... that day i will never forget. when i hear his songs i feel like floating and flowing, the color blue, summer's starry night, barefoot comfort and warmth in my heart and soul. thank you jerry for healing the world! love you, always and for ever. X
One things for sure. All the upcoming generations need to experience this on some level. Pass it on !!!
Jerry was on the moon, he came around in cycles and still does. I miss him more then words can tell but he is up there on the moon keeping an eye on his deadhead family and I swear he was at the dead n company show a few weeks ago, I felt it
I got you, I was born in August 1995 and feel my life purpose is to pass on The Jerry Garcia wayyy
I'm only 15 and the greatful dead is just an extraordinary band.
New Year's Day, 2018: My heart breaks listening to Jerry. "I watch it all roll by..."
I totally believe Jerry's in heaven. It's called Grace and Mercy and it's all over the place in heaven. He's playing there now, I'll bet, making more of his heavenly music.
Grace and Mercy are sadly an uncommon event down here.
Amen I BELIVE he is there were the water taste like wine.love every deadhead all across the world .and I will go out this away I c it
I must say congratulations to all of you, my fellow Dead Heads. You folks really captured nearly every song the Dead of JGB ever made famous. I never owned anything that could even capture the sound at a concert, so I am so glad that many of you captured both the sound and the pictures. I thank all of you from the bottom of my Heart. :-)
Jerry made me cry when he was still alive. Many years later, his music still does it for me. This was a hot day on tour and everyone wore shorts. We didn't see Jerry in shorts just any old day!
I missed him by a few years but I grew up with a sister that went on tour and a brother too… what I would give to just be at 1. Seen many phish shows, so great, but I’m missing Jerry on my belt
I went to many shows back in the day. I loved watching and listening to this beautiful voice! I miss the Capt more everyday. I thank God we have his recordings. Many of his songs, like this one eventually move me to tears, tears that feel good. I think of Jerry entertaining vast crowds in heaven! We miss you Jerry!
@@stevelavazza1304 Yeah, Phish ain't the Dead.
I love The Grateful Dead so much. No band will ever ever ever come close to The Dead. R.I.P Pigpen

Drop LSD take Mushrooms do DMT smoke lots of Pot expand the mind let the brain fire on all cylinders.
jerry literally shredding beautiful poetry with that guitar solo towards the end... can listen to it 10 times a day
The first time I heard this live. Around 1990, Jerry was singing it & I was blown away. I could see Jerry putting all of himself into the song. It was one of the first times they must have premiered it, I realized how beautiful of a song writer Jerry was. I was completely taken back. Then, I went home to study the lyrics & learned it was really written by Robert Hunter. It was at this moment it dawned on me that Jerry allowed Robert to write because Robert expressed Jerry's heart the best.
All of the dead members were amazing song writers but nothing hits better than hunter and Garcia
I remember listening to Jerry being interviewed and he was asked what he thought about fans taping their shows. His response was perfect jerry: he said that once he played a note he no longer "owned it"....it was out in the universe where he no longer laid any claim to it and it was open and available for everyone to do as they please with it. This openness and freedom to allow fans to tape concerts only helped to fuel their fan's loyalty and devotion. One other quick note: I have always loved that the Dead came out and played in simple clothes (shorts, jeans, tee shirts)....nothing stupid or fancy....it's all about the music not some act.
Absolutely the correct reply from Jerry. This is it.
Meanwhile Dead & Company still hasn't even decided to livestream their shows yet... and they want to make you pay for the whole concert video.
Timeless.....the days of old how I long for thee....so blessed and grateful to have been able to tour and experiance a magical time in my younger days...bummer- it cuts off! ugh
I had a dream I was hanging out with Jerry, he was teaching me guitar. I wasn’t even alive when he was around but in my dream he had the most gentle and soothing soul. It’s crazy how the music lives on and touches a kid like me in such a way.
I only hope to have a dream like this💙
Thats real man.
Way back in about 78 he left the stage in the middle of the song and we both smoked a doobie together on the side of a mountain and looked down and watched him and the band play the song together… all in a dream, all in a dream . True story 🫡
I saw Jerry from 1968 to his death in '95. May he and Brent both R I.P.
My first show. What a beautiful life I have lived since this moment.
I've listened to many versions of this song and this one has to be the best. It's so calm and mellow. The guitar work is so clean and simple and the keyboard work is beautiful. These fellows really worked good together. There's a time and place for everything. Just glad it's recorded.
I like the reverence the band employs with this very emotional song by Garcia. They all knew the days were numbered even if they didn't know. "On a back porch in San Francisco", makes me happy/sad and very loving. Thanks bro. You gave us every thing you had.
Um yeah sure Einstein.... They all knew the days were numbered...whaaaaaat?!? Like ok guys, only 1,500 or so days left
@@jharv813 come on, be kind. there is a wistfulness that comes to thoughtful musicians and songwriters. we all have to look at our mortality, and they way all things are marked by impermanence, as Buddhists put it. your brth certificate, as one writer on death out it, has your death certificate in faint letters on the reverse, place, time, and cause still to be written in. once we know that, we can LIVE.
My man, spitting to the end. I miss you Jerry...soon we will dance together again.....many years alone...tears....
Love this song. The "Morning Dew" of the 90's.
how so? Did they open with this a lot?
@@TheRollingCoinStore another wistful one about loss and gentle loving.
Jerry is a given! God damn, I miss Brent!!!
+james white I was a big time Brent fan.When he died I left tour
+Ras Malachi so did I saw 2 shows in Maryland after Brent died that was it for me.
I didn't see them again till spring of 94 in Miami
LOVE BRENT AS WELL. HE WAS THE BEST GD EVER HAD.
Omg! Brent was my man! You can run, run, run, but you can't hide.
I lost my Sam . He was so into Jerry. This song has not stopped going through my head., He was a big dead head.I know he was friends with a lot of people who where always on the Sunday show with him. If anyone of you see this. I want you to know. I took care of him with hospice and my son.helped.alot. He died peacefully at home. You all made him Happy.. Thank you.
❤ I'm so sorry for your loss. Hugs to you!
Sending love from SC 💜 I miss my favorite people too!
I had to hear this song (one of the last great Hunter/Garcia compositions), clicked on this version, & found it was recorded exactly 21 years ago, today... I remember my Dead Days like they were yesterday; I wish some were tomorrow. Thank Goddess Jerry lives on You Tube, a bit more tangibly than in my heart. I was so lucky to be alive & with the Dead when they shone; it is one of the greatest miracles of humanity that these guys came together, to make the most transcendent music ever heard...
i had just started setting up at the restaurant i worked at, when i heard it on the radio. my boyfriend called immediately and folks at work gathered around to comfort me. a very sad, beautiful, poignant moment in my life.....i so love this song....miss you Jerry;)
I never got to see Jerry and the Dead live . But man , they have had a huge impact on my life.
Theyre so powerful !
Not everyone is into them , but those of us who are really share a special bond with eachother. Even if we have never met.
Only good vibes and love !
Exactly what the world needs right now
I dig how casual and laid-back they were. Shorts! This band is more important to me now at 59 than they were at 19. I appreciate the music more........ and miss them
My Dad is dying and I have been looking to Jerry for comfort. This was perfect.
yes it is sad. did you know the last words Brent ever sang were on his verse in The Weight....."I gotta go, but my friends can stick around"
Some of the BEST music all across the hole world .BUT THE LAW HATES US HIPPIES.ONLY IF THEY NEW THE SHIT WE BEEN THREW .
i love when a good ID RATHER BE WITH YOU makes me want to cry
Brent and Jerry!
The best! Miss those two more than words can say.
I have been loving Dead & Co more than I thought I possibly could, but it is no until I listen to Jerry that I realize what i miss (and the things I do not miss).
Go see Jrad... I swear its the only cover band today that has just a tiny bit of that energy at the Dead shows.. D&C is intentionally meant to not have the energy.
Fragile Thunder I agree it's a different (though wonderful) energy , Dead & Co. But I never knew it was intentional. Like they didn't want anyone pretending to be Jerry, because ugh, not possible. That's why I like John Mayer; he's an amazing, intense musician with intuitive understanding of the Dead, but he doesn't mimic Jerry. I'd really like to understand what you mean, and then of course I'll listen to the band you suggested. I'm not a sarcastic person so please don't take this as anything other than what it says. Thanks for the insight.
I'm glad Dead & co. is out there keeping the music going but its a different thing than what we had before. I'll always be grateful for Jerry playing so much music for us.
Nothing touches Jerry’s beauty!
Appreciate what we got in the here & now. All too soon Bobby, Mickey, Billy, Phil will all be gone. Death don't have no mercy in this land.....
So beautiful. Masterpiece
PLAYED THIS SONG AT MY YOUNGER BROTHER FUNERAL ......THAT BOY COULD SHOW HOW TO DANCE .....GOD BLESS
Rest in peace to your brother, I'm sure he's dancing up a storm with Jerry as we speak ❤
i was 1 years old when this song came out and i swear i could tell you ever dead head song by the time i was 12-16....jammming this song for u brother
Jerry had incredible tempo, he never rushed a song and got the most out of each note. No one better at single not improvision as well.
That's right... he got out of the incessant torrent of the flood rapids....pulled into the backwaters where you can hear the birds and frogs, open up a bottle....breathe in the sweet air. He coaxed an animal sound from his guitar Tiger.
Jerry was the master of subtelty. Especially in this song, where the chords were kept so simple, as to not take away from the lyrics.
WharfRat WharfRat he can make that guitar cry like my grandfather did on his steel guitar and damn that makes me CRY
Lovely view of him, but rather be with you!!
Ahhhh....Standing on the moon. I love you Jerry. Cant wait to see you again.
Jerry put his heart and soul into this music. He's appreciated by so many. Forever grateful.
somewhere in san francisco on a a back porch in july......
+River Taff was it a TuesdaY?
River Taff / The most beautiful verse in the song River
Gets me every time I think that's all jerry wanted at this time
In a hot tub.
Yeah, that's some great Jerry imagery there. That line aways gave me goosebumps. It always reminded me of another fave Jer tune of mine, Mission. Two different snippets of Jerry's Frisco
I miss song that last more than 3 minuets,the hidden meaning, emotion, shure pulls on the heart strings.
I feel the same about this song, so strong. this was my 3rd of 28 shows and I think the best. I remember jerry's guitar & whole band captivating me. what a huge sound that amazing band generated. "Bob spit on me!" lol. sotm wad always one of my favorite newer songs the boys did.
I got to visit haight ashbury a few years later and see where that strange trip started. hell yea!
Love the Jerry lullabies. Such passion and feeling in the singing and the guitar. Never get tired of listening to these gems.
Have the telescope out looking at the Moon and listening to this. How I miss him.
there is an interview some were Jerry said fighting for peace is still FIGHTING :>)
my husband and i would sing this song to our daughter to calm her when she was first born. now shes almost one and she still recognizes it. this is a beautiful song.
The memories come flooding back !
Jerry touches the very fabric of my soul, and brings me back to those special days that never seemed to end. The music, the colours, the friends, the stinky hotel rooms with untold miraculous heads dedicating another day to the music that eternity seemed to run on - drums and space, sprinkled with a little grace.
Jerry you left us too soon, and I MISS YOU.
Super love that comment about two chords over and over. It's so true. All about the feeling. It's making me cry right now. Thanks so much for posting!
+Pearly Baker
+Pearly Baker It's more than three chords. Listen.
+Joshua Byron that's really funny!
+Joshua Byron Josh is right...love that bridge
+Pearly Baker Sorry for the misunderstanding. I wasn't actually talking about TWO CHORDS. Does any song only have two chords?! I was talking about a feeling. A mood. A slow pace. More about simplicity. Can you understand? That's okay.
absolutely and one-hundred percent incredibly beautiful. Thank You Jerry.
while listening to this song, I decided this will be my next tattoo in memory of my dad who passed from kidney cancer and my grandparents who got killed in a car wreck that same dreadful morning on New Years Eve.12-31-2007. A man standing on the moon with the words "I'd rather be with you." I miss you all more than words can say. 💔💔💔
Another great memory.
Jerry has gone away, but still is alive and well in my heart.
Thanks, man.
Happy Birthday Jerr..... miss you man
I feel your silent laughter
at sentiments so bold
that dare to step across the line
to tell what must be told,
so I'll just say I love you
which I never said before
and let it go at that, old friend,
the rest you may ignore.
Is your name Robert?
Simply... Absolutely... Utterly... Beautiful
Thank you for posting
JERRY G. RIP. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
I remember jerry played this in 93 at the sam boyd silver dome. I thought it was just for me. I cried so hard , people I didn't even know where like dude it's O.K. I still cry tears of joy whenever I hear this he was a majik man
I was just a little kid, 10 years old, probably playing in the woods or on my tire swing with the neighborhood kids, having no idea of the era that had just come to an end :( Still, though whenever I listen to this music I feel sad, like losing a brother.....What musical talent this man had to leave such an impact on so many people.
Bobby's ponytail is priceless...A lovely view of Heaven but I'd rather be with you -we all will be again Jerry!
I got to see Grateful Dead play in Birmingham at the Civic center. Was a great show I will never forget. It was in April1995 . RIP Garcia
I was there ; great show
Jerry from 9:35-9:50...one those totally transcendent Jerryesque guitar passages. I listened to it like 20 times.
GDTRFB sweet 🎶 to relax to.. ‘thx BF
oh. sweet soul Darling you are missed always and iam always twirling dancing with my children and you my dear
The perfect song for the last time he played for us, and the perfect version for us all to hear. Thank you, Jerry for all time.
Jesus Flores Perfect song yes. But this isn’t the last time he played for us, he had 5 more years
missing jerry and the summer shows in nor cal, good music , my buddies, my lady friends and good smoke. tears of joy
A Friend of the Devil
Love the dead
they let me spin
round and round and make me float.
Maybe I better take another toke :)
sit in my chair,close my eyes
sing-a-long and smile.
Whether it's
shouting it out to,Fire on the Mountain
or singing,you know you got such dark eyes
Woooo....
Shaking it up with Sugaree and asking her to
please forget she knew my name
or telling Bertha
Don't you come around here any more.
I could always get a little dizzy
spinning round and round with the girl that
has rings on her fingers
and bells on her shoes...
I knew right away she was not like the other girls.
Or go Trucking with
the do-dah-man
what a long strange trip it's been...
become the Ripple singing
let there be songs to fill the air.
Feeling so free,flying with the birds
singing their songs...tell me all that you know.
Hiding out in a rock and roll band
with Uncle Sam
wave that flag...we're all confused,what to do.
It Must Have Been the Roses
got me so fallen in love...
all I know is I could not leave her there.
Feeling all melancholy
Standing on the Moon
watching the battle rage below.
I watch it roll by,
feeling the pain.
So sometimes I feel like just
Throwing Stones and singing
ashes,ashes we all fall down
or maybe go strutting with
Cosmic Charlie...
he's smooth as silk.
But where ever I walk with
Jerry and the boys
I know they will
ease my soul
because there are
So Many Roads.
RIP Jerry...

You're right on it, kid. All that superficial stuff---hair, clothes, partying--is beside the point. It's music--ART. Created and played with integrity, full of meaning, that cuts right to the heart of human existence. And yes, Jerry Garcia was a special artist. The good news is he left an ENORMOUS amount of music behind, and as your experience proves, it still comes across. You didn't have to be there, any more than you had to be there to experience Bach or Chopin. Cheers to you. Keep on truckin
Jerry tugs at my broken heart 💔
In retrospect, there is no other experience like being at a Dead show. The live music, drums, space, but for me it was the crowd, and the fact that you would always see someone from a different time and place you knew, and greeted like a prodigal family member. The brotherhood and sisterhood was something I have yet to find an equal to, and doubt I will.
A cultural phenomenon, unparalleled. The memories are as fresh as yesterday, and always have been, and always will be.
God bless you Jerry.
I miss my husband. I'll bet he is standing on the moon looking over us. Miss you Donny so much.
This is why Phil rarely wore shorts.
It burns!! It burns!! hahahaa
I was there, and it was hot southern hell. Even Jerry wore shorts! but, point taken...lol
Missing Colby like the cheese!!!
such a BEAUTIFUL song...sung and played with such soul and heart
Beautiful. Thank you Jerry. I'm tired of all the hate that I've been feeling and giving during this pandemic.......I needed this more than anything else. You had your faults as we all do but you always hit the heartstrings and you will never be forgotten.
I believe at 5:52 Jerry starts crying. “At a back porch in San Francisco” seemed to hit him hard. Such a touching moment and heartbreaking at the same time. Love you Jerry
Anyone that marked this down has lost their share in the afterlife.
Miss you Jerry. Thanks for all the great shows and vibes. I hope you're back again and getting ready to change the world again. Much love brother.
"what happened to beautiful music?"
It's right here, with just one click, whenever we want it...
Thanks to TH-cam, to the fans who saved and post these little slices of time-and-place, and of course to the Dead themselves, other than whom I can think of no band that not only made music of such breadth, depth, variety, beauty, subtlety, inventiveness and power -- but allowed us to record and share it whenever we wanted.
this is HEARTBREAKING, but nessessary to the essence of uplifting flow
Old glory standing stiffly, crimson, white, and indigo
makes me proud to be an American aND A DEAD FAN
This is by far the best version!
bless ya brother----------a very special band--glad the younger generation still appreciate it--ROCK ON BRO--lots of great old rock-n-roll---dig it all
absolute shame to end this so abruptly.....
mi ok I was just thinking that same thing!
I agree It just stops and I feel like something went wrong
I miss him so much :'(
❤️⚡️💀🌹🇺🇸
Love Brent’s time in the band, especially 89/90, such a worn in feel during their latter days.
This is beautiful, thanks so much! I remember the MSG run in September of 1991. I was still having a really hard time with my best friend’s suicide a few months earlier and, man, i let everything out right there on the floor of the garden. For some reason the combo of Jerry and Branford brought me to my core and I that moment was when I really began to heal. It really was a strange sensation. To this day, SOTM makes me look up and smile
