Guys, the beauty of it IS HIS WEAK VOCALS, FORGETTING THE WORDS, get it? He is sick, BUT HE CAN'T STOP PLAYING!!. Moron saying it isn't good, you are not looking at it the right way. You can see his humanity. Bob has to start sing the line, "Wind inside, wind out side, dangling the window blind" in order to remind Jerry of what verse is coming. He knew Jerry would forgt. You can hear the weakness in his voice, but he is like some incredibly delicate angel, his voice break and out f breath. It's darn near the most heartbreaking and beautiful thing I have ever heard. No, the weaknes, forgetfulness, it shows his humanity, his life, his death, THAT'S WHY it's awesome and haunting. See it the right way, please.
We are very fortunate to have been alive during the span of time that this man and his band produced such passionate sweet music. His death was merely physical, the notes he played will resonate for eternity. Miss ya every day dude, hope you found the road home.
Jerry is crying, and this song naturally came to mind during a really hard stretch of life, and I learned the words by heart hearing it over and over. This music gave us so much. And Deadheads are the best family in the world. What a beautiful thing.
If you like drugs, having gross sex with unclean people and believing that this is the best music ever. Then yeah, deadheads are cool. As long as you agree with them.
My dad isnt very internet savy and I showed him some of these videos, hes been to 49 dead shows and my mom like 60+. Brought tears to my dads eyes.Some powerful music and jery was an icon.
I’ve been a dead fan since they started, But I’ve only been to three concerts, the last was in California I retired from 29 years in the Navy two days afterwards
I was so lost at this point in my life, yet moments like this one gave me more joy than I had ever experienced. The Jerry ballads always just overwhelmed me and made made laugh, cry, and scream in anger all at the same time. Falling in love and Grateful Dead shows will always be some of my favorite moments in life.
I cried my eyes out in pure happiness at Soldiers 95 when I heard this song.There wasnt a dry eye anywhere around me that night.There was a weird feeling that this was gonna be it and it was.I miss the concerts alot.Something I really looked forward to.I met some really Beautiful people along they way.
Never can get tired of listening to Jerry & the Dead. I was turned on to them back in 75. Seen Jerry and Bob on solo tour in 76 and then the Dead in 78. Just recently saw Bob & Ratdog in 07 and still sounding great. We miss you Jerry, hope you are "Standing on the Moon" with "Peggy-O" and a "Box of Rain" getting ready to travel "So Many Roads" to "Franklin's Tower" Peace!
I felt the same way for a time. Best words I ever heard were from Jerry, He said I was going to be OK. Thats all he said but He KNEW that I would be. He himself made big mistakes, I trusted his wisdom and have done great things since. Love to you, the children will be home soon.
I'm a 64 year old Vietvet. I have played guitar all my life. Into a few different styles of music but I've never listened to a side of Grateful Dead and until a few days ago I couldn't tell you one song they sang. I've evidently missed much. Jerry must have been a special gift. The comments columns are a rare phenomena. I've been reading the columns and I feel as if I'm sitting in at a family reunion where everyone seems ot like each other. Thanks.
Never really a big dead fan but a friend of mine from high school died last week and one of his best friends posted this song as a tribute. Maybe it's the poignancy of the situation but can't stop listening to the song.........Great song but very sad! God Bless you BJ, you will be missed by many!!!
grateful dead... either you get it or you don't. i'm one of the lucky ones who do. so much good music they left us with... they new it was special a long time ago. they took the time from the very beginning to master how to record their shows. now we have access to more of our favorite band than any other band out there. it's pretty amazing i think with all the file-trading going on today... there are alot of new people being turned on to this music.
this man and his music moved me thru a very dark place in my life. He continues to do this every day....thats powerful. Miss u jerry, forever grateful.
I’m only 16 never got to see jerry live but i wish jerry could still be playing watching him in his last performances is sad and he’s still playing with so much grace n soul . Wish I could experience the dead era but Jerry’s soul n art lives on for future genarations in his music 🎶 ☮️ thankful for what he left for all of us 🙌🙌
I wonder if anyone in attendance realised that this poignant performance would be one of Jerry's last? He's playing like he knew it. Such a beautiful song, and such an emotional performance. Thanks for posting this.
This performance has something truly magical to it... Jerry’s 6 string confession on the emotional/physical reality of near nonstop decades on the road + a beautiful, sad, and deeply reflective lyrical journey , some of the most transcendent, raw, and expressive soloing I’ve ever heard hitting so perfectly, flowing in perfect contrast to the backing, and negating the few minor lyrical mumbles.. It’s always conveyed a very strange blend of induced depression from witnessing a genius wasting away, yet mixed with immeasurable respect for the artists soul still shining through to tell the story of all the roads he’s traveled, searching for one to bring him one. To ease his soul.. As sad as it is hearing him mumble through and forget a few lines, it just really further exemplifies the authenticity and natural artistic depth involved.. Just over a year later he would be gone, age 53, succumbing to addictions, poor health/habits, heartbreakingly passing during a long overdue stay at a drug rehab center There’s a later live ‘95 version of “So Many Roads’, prob the last time Jerry played it.. but it didn’t do much for me ... 1994
This song is a masterpiece, and Jerry, he is just incredible, some people just dont understand the pure beauty of his soft and weak voice in the later years, he is amazing!
I remember this day, what a concert. I hit the whole west coast that year. Brings back goose bumps. You dead heads would understand. Nothing beat a dead show.
Of all the things I have gained and then lost in this life, I was most surprised at how much it hurt when we lost Jerry. He will forever live in my heart.
The Grateful Dead makes everything worth it. whenever i feel down i just play some of their music and suddenly i feel amazing... nothing else matters. thank you so much to everyone who keeps their music going!!
I saw this song performed on a few occasions, always very moving, and years later with a few more miles under my belt it means so much more than Jerry could have or maybe wanted to imagine given his genuine humility, to me and so many others who are just trying to find their way it's a timeless gift!
It was the day before my 50th birthday when, as I walked along a sun drenched road, that the radio whispered in my ear telling me that Jerry had passed and I sat on a large stone and cried. It all rolls into one.
I was in the shower when the radio announced it, I had my thumb out on hwy 101 before noon that day. Met some awesome people on the trip there to the polo fields for the service.
What is hard to believe? I do not understand your comment, Whom other than Jerry has such a great following? He is in my heart as I hope he is in yours. If you want a flier from the dirge, write me. Always free.
As i sit here tears in my eyes and compleatly sober, which might be a good thing.My step grandfather is 600 miles away at his house on his favorite recliner with no breath in his lungs, morphine drip on his waist and every rib exposed and cancer covering his lungs. With a pastor and all his family by his side, I dedicate this song to Larry Lang, he was as good a man as can be. Bless your heart Larry as you take your last few breaths on Earth know we love you and will see you again! ='( Zack
Funny, I just came by to leave a note to say the same thing. Isn't it beautiful ? It seems to get better every time I listen, and it just gives me great comfort. To let the mind follow the music, and at the end I always see one thing: Jerry is smiling down from above, with the gentle thought that his creations still touch his fans, as though each of us was standing next to him. I miss him. I really miss him.
I saw the dead 144 times, and I do still miss Jerry. Watching this stuff is great and brings back lots of good memories of music and friends. Its too bad it had to end. bt
AMAZING! love how Jerry mumbles the lyrics while Bob tries to keep him on track. He used to get so lost in the music and sweated it out from every pore!
i caught jerry at th end of his road. a young 15 or 16 i was. 15 years later i can still see all the roads traveled. i used to tell my dad it wasnt my fault jerry followed me all other the country, lol. love it.
@@sde9815 We didn't let it happen. Jerry knew how it was going to go down. I can't explain the why's and wherefores, just know that he was the captain of his joy and his pain, and that he was never one to cast blame on the fans, or the band, or anyone or anything else. Peace to you, best wishes, and take care.
this is my first song of Grateful. I heard them and this song today for the first time, because I felt ashamed I didn't know any of their songs. And I can't stop listening to this
yes im only 16. your extremely fortunate to have been able to have jerry and the dead be such a large part of your life. and even though i was never able to see them, i did grow up with their music thanks to my dad and their music has always been magic to me.
top 10 in my opinion, Garcia showing that he still had it all the way until his final days on this planet. A true artist, A true inspiration to all, and a true legend! God bless this band and the history and Art that they have created for all of the Human race to embrace and love and create!
I have heard this song a thousand times, yet with each new play, it hits me harder than the time before. Rosebud sings at the hands of the master, and what hands he has. I am in amazement of the tribute Jerry left for us all. That we may know how his talent and feel the emotions brought on by life, and to carry them with us wherever we go. Jerry, you cannot know the anguish of loss we still feel. God bless you.
Jerry didn't even start singing and the tears were already streaming down my face. So So hard to listen to without crying. It does not seem possible that 13 years have passed.
this was my first show and hardly remember it. Not because I was high but because I was six years old. Momma always told me hugs not drugs...15 years of tears in my house Jerry... we miss you!!!
Jerry's haunting riffs from Rosebud echo still. So many roads to get to the wonderful shows I shared with so many others over the years. This ballad is as good as it was in 1992 when Jerry first played it in Oakland. "From the High road to the low, so many roads I know.." Memories forever.
the beauty and peace ive felt from this song and many others a culture of ppl following them around trading and helping one another in a time and space we all belonged as one loving sharing it was a beautiful time to be in for the ppl who was there and did belong and do know, this oong is for all us jerrys kids ... bobby spit on me !!!
It looks like Jerry reached deep down for this one. What a treat it was to see the Dead and the many incarnations of the Jerry Garcia Band. Thanks Jerry.
I was at the Pittsburgh show a year later, didn't realize it at the time but watching the recording it was easy to see how far gone Jerry was and shouldn't have been surprised he died 60 days later.... he poured out his soul and left it all for us to breathe in for years to come
I saw the Dead in Atlanta in 94 3/30/94 Last time the Dead would play Dark Star with Garcia in concert Magical Night Great Feel Like a Stranger first set the jam ot of the vocals to the end was pure funk great Lazy River Road Scarlet > Fire Playin in the Band and Dark Star in the 2nd set Liberty encore I love the Grateful Dead Family Thanks for all the great music and see you on Furthur tour in summer 2010
I remember when I was in college my Mom asked me had I figured out what I wanted to do with my life, I said yes...follow the Grateful Dead. I feel so blessed to have been a part of the life, love ,music of the Grateful Dead
This is the last show from Las Vegas, how true about the words, just hits you like a ton of steel. I am glad to have soo many memories of the boys from the start to the end. Never too old to hear, listen and enjoy. Thanks Jerry, you weren't the best at what you did you were the only one to do what you did.
I still miss Jerry to this day. He looked me in the eye while singing "Standing On the Moon" and my life changed. Our memories will always keep Jerry alive.
I miss you Jerry. You sat in my chair in my bedroom and said that I will be okay in 95, I am ok Jerry, I miss you and I wish you would visit again. I need inspiration. I love you Jerry and I will never forget. It was scary back then but you reassured me and I made it through. Come back Jerry, just for a moment. Please Jerry.
The Dead at the Garden was magic...makes the hair stand up on end...I was a high school teenager during these last few years and although disappointed I hadn’t been older to experience more, I thank God I was old enough to get a good enough taste of live Jerry, the Dead, and the scene to help ease my soul through all my remaining days...
ive been to many dead showa & have over 1050 shows in my collection.Jerry in my eyes was & always will be the best musician.I almost cry when i see this video.Lots of memories.Thank you for the video...you made my day....RIP JERRY..WE ALL LOVE YA!!!!
A great version of this song that I can never get enough of hearing Jerry playing and singing. Thank you Jerry, we miss you as we continue on the road with you in our thoughts.
I was at this show...Thank you so much for this. This made my eyes tear. No one will ever understand just what this band can do to a person...if they dony understand.
Im a complete Dead Head without ever seen an actual "Grateful Dead" show. Im a Dead Head born and raised and have seen multiple post Jerry line ups. Everyday the fact that I will never see Jerry and never get to experience what it was like back in the day brings me down. Tears streaming down my face right now. I miss Jerry and I never even saw him...
This was one of my favorite "So Many Roads" I ever saw Jerry perform. So heartfelt. I still remember hearing people saying "piss song" as they ventured away. I only wish I was in Vegas now seeing Jerry n the boys. Loved seeing them out there. Good times.
ahhhh the Vegas shows .... thunder and lightning during drums, Jerrys little dry humor crack when folks were passing out in the front of the stage from the heat, so many fond memories .....
I miss you Jerry, you are like a part of me I never got to see or hear, I wish for that one moment, just that once when I stand in a live GD concert,even when I listen to your songs, it touches the soul somewhere deep down there....Thank you Jerry, after all its just a box of rain
dude i am a 22 year old and all i listen to is rock and roll i hate today s music and the grateful dead is my favorite band they open my eyes to good music man the grateful dead music will never stop
This video brings a tear to my eye everytime I watch it, but still I can't help but re-watch it over and over ... Thanks for everything Jerry, I still can't put in words how much I miss you!
brings a tear to my eye. There are so few who can so well channel their talents to share with so many of us. While others are in that club, there'll never be anyone to replace him.....
i never saw the dead live, but wish i did. these songs helped me grow up over the years, teaching me about the many roads in this life. Its good to watch this video and see the clarity in eyes which had seen so much. rest well, Jerry. thanks.
So Many Roads is one of those songs that could literally make a person shed several tears. For as many struggles; as well as moments of glory, Jerry represented the average American citizen. Jerry will always be missed, and for those who never opened their minds and hearts to this music, its too bad they missed so much!
@@leshtricityI’ve tried to understand for more than 50 years. How is it possible that not everyone experiences the magic?!? There is simply exists no answer …
No guitarist comes close to the feelings that Jerry could convey through six strings..RIP, we love and miss you
I really want you to think about how wrong you are for a second.
@@joeldecotis8986name one and I'll write an essay explaining how and why you're wrong. seriously. try.
Absolutely right on my friend
@@joeldecotis8986you don't belong here

+musicdreamerish technically, there is no "right way," dude. but you're pretty damn close if there was one.
+musicdreamerish You're right. That's the sheer beauty of it :)
Long live Jerry!
+musicdreamerish *_Greatfully agree'd_*
musicdreamerish couldn't agree more man
We are very fortunate to have been alive during the span of time that this man and his band produced such passionate sweet music. His death was merely physical, the notes he played will resonate for eternity. Miss ya every day dude, hope you found the road home.

Jerry Garcia makes me cry when I play his songs
Back at ya brother!
Jerry was tired and broken, but what a soul to sing and play until the very end
Feeling good in texas , still, I teared up watching this.
😎❤
😪
Word. He may have forgotten the lyrics but his guitar playing was still 🔥
@SirAlexOfTheGuitar is ok, we will sing the lyrics for him. He is a life saver. ✌️🌹🙋🏼♀️
My dad isnt very internet savy and I showed him some of these videos, hes been to 49 dead shows and my mom like 60+. Brought tears to my dads eyes.Some powerful music and jery was an icon.
right on man, hope your folks are still grooving to the music that never stopped
Jerry still is an icon.
I’ve been a dead fan since they started, But I’ve only been to three concerts, the last was in California I retired from 29 years in the Navy two days afterwards
147 my friend
Was there. Jerry was weak but this Song says it all. Jerry finally went home. Bless him
I was so lost at this point in my life, yet moments like this one gave me more joy than I had ever experienced. The Jerry ballads always just overwhelmed me and made made laugh, cry, and scream in anger all at the same time.

Makes me think of all the wrong roads I’ve taken. I can’t turn around now and correct the wrong ones. This song tears at the fabric of my poor soul

Solid comment brother!
this song always flows some tears. thank you jerry, thank you grateful family!
As much as jerry might’ve forgotten the words , his guitar playing never faltered. Amazing guitarist!! RIP JERRY. PEACE!!!
I wonder if anyone in attendance realised that this poignant performance would be one of Jerry's last? He's playing like he knew it. Such a beautiful song, and such an emotional performance. Thanks for posting this.
Doubt it. I saw the next to last show and didn't have that feeling
thanks for this.
I attended 171 shows from 1975 to 1993....and I chereish all the memories!!
this has got to be one of the most peaceful songs recorded

Love your username HAIL BOOGNISH 🤘
Love the 95 one for different reasons. It's definitely one of the most heart wrenching dead performances I've heard
This song is a masterpiece, and Jerry, he is just incredible, some people just dont understand the pure beauty of his soft and weak voice in the later years, he is amazing!
I remember this day, what a concert. I hit the whole west coast that year. Brings back goose bumps. You dead heads would understand. Nothing beat a dead show.
depending on my mood, this tune can bring me either a smile or a tear, but both are great.
5:40 on.... brings tears to my eyes. Everything he had, left on stage for all to enjoy. Thank you Jerry.
Of all the things I have gained and then lost in this life, I was most surprised at how much it hurt when we lost Jerry. He will forever live in my heart.
I do love this one the best, Jerry all in purple with hair blown back in the wind. Man, it sure does ease my soul.
The Grateful Dead makes everything worth it. whenever i feel down i just play some of their music and suddenly i feel amazing... nothing else matters. thank you so much to everyone who keeps their music going!!
My favorite balad Jerry sang in the 90's along with Morning Dew.
Brings me to tears
Pure grace and honor to this genre. Thanx Fellas.
Always faithful. M circle.
Thanks for the memories guys... 200 or so shows by the time I was 15... Great way to grow up.
This is difficult to watch for me because the pain inside of him comes pouring out, I watch it and cry with him.
mindblowing....dont know who or why anyone would want to criticize this obviously heartfelt prrformance
If this doesn't speak to you, you have no soul. Gives me shivers. Simply beautiful
I saw this song performed on a few occasions, always very moving, and years later with a few more miles under my belt it means so much more than Jerry could have or maybe wanted to imagine given his genuine humility, to me and so many others who are just trying to find their way it's a timeless gift!

thats hard to believe... i spent the summer of 94 on tour and im so glad for the experience.
What is hard to believe? I do not understand your comment, Whom other than Jerry has such a great following? He is in my heart as I hope he is in yours. If you want a flier from the dirge, write me. Always free.

hard to believe hes been gone so long... he was such a big part of my life and still is.

Days Between is one of my favorite Jerry ballads too. That one and Comes a Time.

This ballad is as good as it was in 1992 when Jerry first played it in Oakland.
"From the High road to the low, so many roads I know.." Memories forever.
the beauty and peace ive felt from this song and many others a culture of ppl following them around trading and helping one another in a time and space we all belonged as one loving sharing it was a beautiful time to be in for the ppl who was there and did belong and do know, this oong is for all us jerrys kids ... bobby spit on me !!!
It looks like Jerry reached deep down for this one. What a treat it was to see the Dead and the many incarnations of the Jerry Garcia Band. Thanks Jerry.
I was at the Pittsburgh show a year later, didn't realize it at the time but watching the recording it was easy to see how far gone Jerry was and shouldn't have been surprised he died 60 days later.... he poured out his soul and left it all for us to breathe in for years to come
I saw the Dead in Atlanta in 94
3/30/94
Last time the Dead would play Dark Star with Garcia in concert
Magical Night
Great Feel Like a Stranger first set the jam ot of the vocals to the end was pure funk great Lazy River Road Scarlet > Fire Playin in the Band and Dark Star in the 2nd set
Liberty encore I love the Grateful Dead Family
Thanks for all the great music and see you on Furthur tour in summer 2010
I remember when I was in college my Mom asked me had I figured out what I wanted to do with my life, I said yes...follow the Grateful Dead. I feel so blessed to have been a part of the life, love ,music of the Grateful Dead
...yet another GD song that almost brings a tear to my eye, such a beautiful piece of music. Wow.
This is the last show from Las Vegas, how true about the words, just hits you like a ton of steel. I am glad to have soo many memories of the boys from the start to the end. Never too old to hear, listen and enjoy. Thanks Jerry, you weren't the best at what you did you were the only one to do what you did.
god...this takes me back to a different time...one i will never forget. How does someone have so much soul? His words will never fade
As a 90s Grateful Dead fan, for better or worse, it doesn't get any better than this...
So many videos to ease my soul. It's been 15+ years since Jerry left this place. His spirit lives on through all of us. Be Kind.
I was not a big fan in the day..but their music has grown on me over the years...gret stuff
I still miss Jerry to this day. He looked me in the eye while singing "Standing On the Moon" and my life changed. Our memories will always keep Jerry alive.
Just recently became a Dead fan . Never knew wat I was missing . RIP JERRY ultimate hippie
I miss you Jerry. You sat in my chair in my bedroom and said that I will be okay in 95,
I am ok Jerry, I miss you and I wish you would visit again. I need inspiration.
I love you Jerry and I will never forget. It was scary back then but you reassured me and I made it through. Come back Jerry, just for a moment. Please Jerry.
The Dead at the Garden was magic...makes the hair stand up on end...I was a high school teenager during these last few years and although disappointed I hadn’t been older to experience more, I thank God I was old enough to get a good enough taste of live Jerry, the Dead, and the scene to help ease my soul through all my remaining days...
ive been to many dead showa & have over 1050 shows in my collection.Jerry in my eyes was & always will be the best musician.I almost cry when i see this video.Lots of memories.Thank you for the video...you made my day....RIP JERRY..WE ALL LOVE YA!!!!
Miss you Jerry. I hope you found the road and soul is at ease. Thank you for all the music and memories.
A great version of this song that I can never get enough of hearing Jerry playing and singing. Thank you Jerry, we miss you as we continue on the road with you in our thoughts.
I was at this show...Thank you so much for this. This made my eyes tear. No one will ever understand just what this band can do to a person...if they dony understand.
Im a complete Dead Head without ever seen an actual "Grateful Dead" show. Im a Dead Head born and raised and have seen multiple post Jerry line ups. Everyday the fact that I will never see Jerry and never get to experience what it was like back in the day brings me down. Tears streaming down my face right now. I miss Jerry and I never even saw him...
This was one of my favorite "So Many Roads" I ever saw Jerry perform. So heartfelt.
I still remember hearing people saying "piss song" as they ventured away.
I only wish I was in Vegas now seeing Jerry n the boys. Loved seeing them out there. Good times.
ahhhh the Vegas shows .... thunder and lightning during drums, Jerrys little dry humor crack when folks were passing out in the front of the stage from the heat, so many fond memories .....
I miss you Jerry, you are like a part of me I never got to see or hear, I wish for that one moment, just that once when I stand in a live GD concert,even when I listen to your songs, it touches the soul somewhere deep down there....Thank you Jerry, after all its just a box of rain
great piece of work. saw him in 94 and really appretiate his music. rip brother....
dude i am a 22 year old and all i listen to is rock and roll i hate today s music and the grateful dead is my favorite band they open my eyes to good music man the grateful dead music will never stop
So many roads....i just want one to lead me home..
Thank you Jerry for so many memories...so many memories that lead me to tour.
This video brings a tear to my eye everytime I watch it, but still I can't help but re-watch it over and over ... Thanks for everything Jerry, I still can't put in words how much I miss you!
Mindblowing...
brings a tear to my eye. There are so few who can so well channel their talents to share with so many of us. While others are in that club, there'll never be anyone to replace him.....
A wounded jerry pouring every inch of his soul into this performance. Thank you
i never saw the dead live, but wish i did. these songs helped me grow up over the years, teaching me about the many roads in this life. Its good to watch this video and see the clarity in eyes which had seen so much. rest well, Jerry. thanks.
I still come back to get more, and the sweet sound of Rosebud singing to me. Straightens up a crooked day for sure.
So many roads, so many roads......
We love you Jerry!!!!!!
My 9 yr old son sees the stars and asks : "Is he in Heaven?"
We miss you Jerry....
We played this song at my friends funeral and it was perfect. RIP Matt
So Many Roads is one of those songs that could literally make a person shed several tears. For as many struggles; as well as moments of glory, Jerry represented the average American citizen. Jerry will always be missed, and for those who never opened their minds and hearts to this music, its too bad they missed so much!
imagine not being a deadhead. couldn't be me.

@@leshtricityI’ve tried to understand for more than 50 years. How is it possible that not everyone experiences the magic?!? There is simply exists no answer …
I always shed tears when i hear this song. Same with i will take you home for Brent..
