      10FootMan Yeah I agree. Personally I thought Mickey was great before he left. The two drummer thing really worked then. But when Bill was the sole drummer from 71 to 74, for me at least, the Grateful Dead were at their peak. That was the "turn on a dime" Grateful Dead when the music flowed like silvery wine in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now.

      How would simply listening to the Grateful Dead make you understand why people took acid? That kind of really undersells acid because it's an amazing enlightening experience that you could not even begin to understand or imagine if you have never done it. Also the Grateful Dead's music (Estimated Prophet) makes a lot more sense after dropping acid. No kind of song or band could ever teach you "why people take acid". Acid teaches you why people take acid and that's it.

    I remember being on LSD and listening to the 'Anthem Of The Sun' with Judy Collins' kid sister, on her stereo. Yes, Judy "I've look at life from both sides now" Collins. This was in 1971. The same year my brother appeared on Playboy After Dark as a guitarist in The Buddy Miles Band. "Well, my mind is going through them changes." About seven years later, when the 'Shakedown Street' album was released, my brother and I were sitting with Artie Resnick and Herbie Worthington one day: Herbie was the photographer for Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks; Artie was a songwriter, including of the song 'Good Lovin'. I asked Artie what was his favorite version of his songs, and he said-'The Grateful Dead'. I then asked Artie what was his least favorite version of one of his songs, and he said-"The Stones' version of 'Under The Boardwalk' (from 1964). He said-'after listening to that I thought "those guys will never last". About 15 years after that, my brother found himself spending the night together with Keith Richards at his house. Among other things, they would talk about music, and Mr. Richards expressed the opinion that he didn't like The Grateful Dead. I told my brother that Keith shouldn't knock The Dead. He said-'why not?' I said-'because they may comeback to haunt him.' A few years ago, I heard a radio clip of The Dead And Company playing The Stones' "The Last Time"; and just a few weeks ago, I rediscovered The Jerry Garcia Band's version of "Let's Spend The Night Together" (not too shabby, imho). Now, imagine if Jerry Garcia cameback from the dead at Keith Richards' house; I mean, all those acid flashbacks must be good for something, right?!

    Great rare live performance of Mountains of the Moon. Best part was when Hef, in his tuxedo with a cocktail and a playmate in his arm was interviewing Jerry, who was wearing a big fuzzy poncho.
    Hef: “Well I noticed that, with your own group, you’ve got kind of a stereo effect going on here with drums - two complete sets of drums and two drummers. Um… obviously for a purpose.”
    Jerry: “Right. Mutual annihilation.”
    Hef: “I see. In other words, the guys kind of compete with one another?”
    Jerry: “Wellll, they more chase each other around. It’s like the serpent that eats its own tail, you know, and” (moving index finger in a circular motion) “it goes round and round like that and if you, if you can stand in between ‘em, uh, they, they make figure eights on their sides in your head.”
    Hef: “I don’t think I’m gonna stand between ‘em…”
    Jerry: “Take your pick” (giggle)
    Hef: “But I noticed that the guys are near their instruments here and the kids have kind of settled down and I wonder if we could get you to, um, do a number for us.”
    Jerry: “Absolutely not!”

    • @flumester
      @flumester 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You're right about acid officially illegal in 66. I'm not sure when the playboy thing was recorded. Owsley was known for making very pure acid with no impurities. Other chemists did not always produce equal product. Owsley purchased something like a gallon of lysergic acid from Sandoz labs. That made it easier to produce LSD.

    • @clarkewi
      @clarkewi 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's true. I was a few years younger than Bill but was living in LA when the Band was down there trying to get a record deal summer '66 so there was alot of acid going around. Sandoz was the standard. There was even a little poem; "S-A-N-D-O-S, Sandoz makes the very best". I got to sample some Owsley "White Lightening" and later in early summer '67 his "Purple Owsely". Both were very potent to say the least Crazy times.

    The reason the Dead chose their new name was because The Velvet Underground were also The Warlocks. So both bands chose new names in mythic stories (Garcia the former, Tony Conrad influenced the latter), and then a new band called The Warlocks surfaced in the early 21st century. Don't knock the Warlocks. They have a rich history. :)

    Little fun fact, the Grateful Dead changed their name to Grateful Dead after learning of another band that had already been using the name The Warlocks. That band is now known as The Velvet Underground.

    • @Kohntarkosz
      @Kohntarkosz 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No it wasn't. Phil Lesh was thumbing through the singles in a record store one day, and found a single by a band called The Warlocks. The VU never released anything as The Warlocks. But that's why the Dead changed their name, because there was another band by the same name who already had a record out. Or so they thought, as Phil admitted about 20 years later, he never saw the record again and no one seemed to know anything about else about them, saying he later came to believe maybe he hallucinated it.

    I don't believe for a second that by 1969 (which is when the Playboy After Dark program was taped) Hugh Hefner hadn't dropped acid at least a few times and probably very good acid at that. Oh, well--classic stories grow with the telling.

  • @Kohntarkosz
    @Kohntarkosz 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It was 1969, not 1967. The Dead and their compatriots were infamous for dosing people. This certainly wasn't the only time stuff like that happened. In this case, they were tryign to dose Hugh Hefner, but as it turned out, Hef was kept away from the crafts tables by his handlers, and only drank Pepsis (or Cokes, depending on who's telling the story), that were opened and handed to him by Shel "Where The Sidewalk Ends" Silverstein (he was Hef's assistant at the time).

      Naw. I've read all that stuff too. They just played their music but the CIA basically spawned the psychedelic movement as they were dosing people under MK ULTRA. The Dead were never part of what the CIA did though. They just played the acid tests which were like raves. None of the members were freemasons or any of that either.

      I went to a lot of local (SF Bay Area) Dead shows after my first show in 1978 (at Winterland, just after they returned from Egypt), as well as a number of shows up and down California. After Brent died I meandered into the house/rave scene and found another psychedelic tribe, the dance scene known as Psychedelic Trance (sometimes calledGoa Trance).
      I did my first doses this year, after well over 20 years off. At the age of 61. It was pretty nice I must admit.
