    This song pertains to a man begging ppl for money because he's addicted to gambling. So he rigs a game and warns his lady not to get drunk cause they gotta wake up early and leave town before they realize he rigged the card game. Thank you Jerry.

    This version of this song moves me. What a great story brought back to life by the GD. There are a lot of spirited songs they brought back to life. I swear the folks who originally created them move thru Jerry and the boys and become magic once again.

    Thank God and thank YOU for taping these and sharing them! I’m in my seventies and am so happy for hearing and watching these early Dead shows before I die ❤️😎 especially Loser which I never heard at all before now! What an inspired song. I like all the comments here too from good people 😊😊😊 An amazing absolutely amazing song, and I dig how Jerry sings and plays it, like everything he did-RIP , angel ✨💫🌉🥰🌬🌊

  • @falllinemaniac

    Jerry wrings out all the tears, angst and pain of the gambler in every grand solo I've ever heard. Loser has always been a favorite, especially the play on the inside straight. A hand that never wins.
    Put your gold money where your love is baby before you let my deal go down.
    Come to daddy on the inside straight.
    Well I got no chance of losing this time.

    Love the way Jerry "conducts" the group dynamics in the second or third verse. Takes it softer and quieter, and the band follows. Setting up for the next run to the top. It was fun to watch.

    Jerry's solo.. looking over his right, smiling, than swinging to his left, locking eyes with Brent. They stare into space, Jerry smiles and produces easily one of his greatest solos of all time and questionably the best Loser ever.

    Don’t misunderstand me… Been a deadhead for 45 years, but something’s not quite right here. 1977 was a good year (some legendary shows that spring). But this video and another one I saw from Wolfgang (Winterland, New Year’s Eve)… Jerry sounds horrible… I mean, like the mid-80’s onward. Are you sure this is from ‘77? Jerry’s voice wasn’t gone yet… but in THESE videos, it sure is. Also, the beginning of his solos… I know how they sound… era-by-era… this really sounds more like late 80’s, early 90’s… and somehow superimposed over the video. (?)
