Thank you Shannon. So happy you loved it... there were times during the production I didn't love it! but we stuck with it and glad now we did: when people like yourself take the time to listen and comment, well, that's what makes it all worthwhile. Happy New Year.
Many thanks to all of you. Every time I watch you warm my heart and bring tears to my eyes. Wish I was there with each of you. Music makes a better person
Thanks Wally... certainly didn"t want to make anyone cry... but good to know we made emotional contact. Will let you know if we do another... Take care
@paul s I come to this version from the one by PFC, which I absolutely love. Now I find that I love this version, too. Both, each in its own way, are fantastic, and show the love that the musicians have for the song. Thank you, and bravo! This is something special.
Indeed the PFC version is excellent (all PFC does is just great). And of course it was our inspiration. Thanks for you praise and motivation. Take care.
Ah, a superb original arrangement of a favorite tune by these very talented musicians and vocalists. Great production values, too! It doesn't get any better than this. Many thanks to all for this lively and entertaining rendition of a favorite Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter song.
Thanks you so much Jazz Del Mar, for taking the time to wite. And of course for your lovely encouraging words. One doesn't look for praise, but when it comes, you should enjoy it. And we very much enjoy yours. All good things for you. Paul
thanks Curtis for listening and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated. I will pass your kind words on to 'the young lady singing the last verse').
the vinyl is American Beauty, I think. Thank you for subscribing... happy to hear that. I actually have a channel (th-cam.com/channels/6iheMB6ev27I8IOf4OoHag.html) with all my stuff. I generally upload something new about every 3 months; mostly now my own songs.....
Thank you so much Sean. Yes, what started out as a small seed of my friend Chris and myself, blossomed and turned into something neither of us expected.
Hello Paul, you've all poured your hearts into this cover and it shows! Absolutely in love with this, especially the male vocals, with the females in the background creating a lovely harmony. You can see how each and every person is passionately playing this song, and Jerry would be proud if he were here today! Would love to see other covers of Grateful Dead songs, much love and I hope that you stay safe and well!
Wow Diego - what a lovely delightful comment. Sort of thing that makes it all worthwhile. We are all now glowing. You too stay healthy, safe and sane (The Grateful Dead can help with that.)
Thank you Marika for taking the time to comment... good to hear... not enough (en)joy in the world at present. Take good care. should you want more, here’s the link to my TH-cam channel: th-cam.com/channels/6iheMB6ev27I8IOf4OoHag.html
Wow! Musical magic. The acoustic intro with clever pauses and artful nuanced staccato picking was foreshadowing of the truly special composition that was to come. Thank you.
Absolutely delightful! Bringing together (virtually) so many musicians - mostly amateurs - and merging their discrete contributions into something as beautiful as this cover version must have been quite a challenge. But the result speaks for itself. It is my perception that it captures the true spirit of the original while adding more richness to it.
Thank you Never_talk_to_ Cops. Wow quantum physics applied to song... praise indeed. I'm sure Rober Hunter and Gerry Garcia would have loved your comment too.
Just found this now towards the end of 2022. Looking back on that time of isolation and sickness and unknowns, such a moving piece. Making a way to unite and carry on in the wheel of life. Really beautiful rendition, ty
I love the lyrics and especially like the lilt of the steel guitar backing , which gives the melody that nostalgic country atmosphere! Paul, I note you share the lead vocal in a dialogue with two others. I like the vocal harmonies of all the singers!
Song always makes me cry , such fond memories of shows from the past , the dead just have such a way of blending their talents and Jerry’s heart felt story telling . They are not just songs pumped out by some innocuous song writer , they are heart felt experiences of life , songs like ripple , broken down palace , even fire on the mountain , he lived and loved Life with passion and these folks have captured some of the magic Many thanks to all !
Thank you Trbird100... such a heartfelt comment, much appreciated. Indeed Jerry and the rest were very special. Uncle John's Band and Casey Jones do it for me, Sugar Magnolia the list goes on. A beautiful version of Friend of the Devil with David Grisman... sensational.
@@pauls4609 Yeah, I heard a group called playing for change doing their version of honky tonk woman. Watched it and was impressed and started watching more of their stuff. And then a referral came up for their version of Ripple. After the first 30 seconds, I was in love with that song. Seen several versions by GD of their song, but PFC has the best version, imo. Most impressive to me was the logistics necessary for PFC to do that song. You guys do it a little different but in an affecting manner. Thank you.
Yes the PFC version is excellent (as is most of their stuff... particularly like theier song of the same name 'Playing For Change' with Sarah Bareilles... if you haven't heard it, give it a try. Thanks again for your support and take care.
I watch PFC videos and their ripple cover every day and that was great. And that's coming from a 70s card carrying deadhead that had a genuine "Jerry Garcia for President" bumper sticker on my bean bag seats, carpet covered walls, van. Where are you all from?
Why would you have 15 secs of dead time before starting the music? Yes, thanks for the free contribution, but please try to stop wasting other peoples' time. THINK
It warms my heart no matter how many times I listen to it.
What a beautiful, motivating comment... moves me... thank you
Thank you, I just love this rendition...
Thank you Jeff. It's a great song and it carried us all along with it. A great way to survive 'lockdown' too.
One my top 5 all time favs.
Want it played at my wake.
The song is a killer - i know how you feel. And if you meant 'my' version, i am deeply honoured.
I have it in my will and funeral arrangements . Everything is together; will and funeral arrangements are in the same folder.
Once again, if you mean my version, I am touched and honoured. In any event you wrote a beautiful comment. Thank you.
Fantastic. Every time I hear this song I fall into a trance
Me too... one of the best songs of all time...
Thanks for taking the time to comment.
As a Deadhead of over 50 years- WELL DONE!
Praise indeed... thank you Dave. The Dead were so special...
Best song ever ... 😎
Thank you Karlheinz... i agree... Gerry Garcia and Robert Hunter composed a classic
That pedal steel solo is out of this world.
Thanks... i passed your comment on to the lady in question..

thank you too Jack. Happy you too the time to comment.
WOW! That was beautiful! Many thanks.
Many thanks to you too Catherine... always uplifting to read such words.
I believe Jerry himself played steel guitar on Teach Your Children. He did it for free in exchange for CS & N teaching the Dead how to harmonize.
Sounds like a good deal... and the best ones are always free.
I love this song.
