I agree. I get emotional everytime I hear Jerry sing this song. Dylan's lyrics hit something really deep down within me. And while I can't quite explain what it is or why it is; this song resonates with me like few others do. It's one of those that makes you smile and cry at the same time.

So enthralled I woke up and wandered through the desert and landed at a camp site where some guys were singing with the acoustic VOJ. Hearing is float though the rocks and desert was magical. Turns out the guys were on a Bach party and their plan was shop for a weeks food. I just finished a school camping program and had a weeks worth of food left over. In the am I gave them all I had much to their surprise. It was VOJ that brought us together and VOJ that got you reading this. God bless the Grateful Dead. You all get it. I tear up thinking about it all and what life would be like without it…….miss you Jerry. More than words can tell.

Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet ? We sit here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it Lights flicker from the opposite loft In this room the heat pipes just cough The country music station plays soft But there's nothing really nothing to turn off Just Louise and her lover so entwined And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind. In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D-train We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane Louise she's all right she's just near She's delicate and seems like the mirror But she just makes it all too concise and too clear That Johanna's not here The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place. Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously And when bringing her name up He speaks of a farewell kiss to me He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall Oh, how can I explain ? It's so hard to get on And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn. Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues You can tell by the way she smiles See the primitive wallflower frieze When the jelly-faced women all sneeze Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze I can't find my knees." Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel. The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him Saying, "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him." But like Louise always says "Ya can't look at much, can ya man." As she, herself prepares for him And Madonna, she still has not showed We see this empty cage now corrode Where her cape of the stage once had flowed The fiddler, he now steps to the road He writes everything's been returned which was owed On the back of the fish truck that loads While my conscience explodes The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.

I was lucky enough to be front/center for this show. Given this was '95, there was a lot of talk about how Jerry was fading fast. I recall that near the onset of the opening song, Jer broke a string. He was obviously really upset about it, got help and got back on it. My thought was "well, seems like Jerry's still here to me". This version of Visions proved that. It's cool that Phil included this version in "Fall-Out from the Phil Zone" a CD of highlights. On the liner notes, Phil states he felt that Jer's solo in this version of this song was one of his best ever. Wow! It sure is one hell of a soulful Visions!!!

Sorely missed, ever mourned, Jerry Garcia will remain an iconic and mythologized god of rock and roll until civilization grinds to a stand-still; Zeus to the rest. RIP.

I remember not even liking it then, thinking it was boring, wanting Morning Dew instead, but what did I know then. Since, I've learned the chords and am learning the words, and have come to appreciate Dylan's poetry (this is from his most poetic album ever, Blonde on Blonde) and Jerry's interpretation.

I felt the same way! I thought, why not Dew or Standing... what IS this song anyway? Now I find it to be right up at the top of all the primo Jerry ballads; I don't try to rank them. One of the best aspects of the Dead is that process of growing to really appreciate & love songs that first strike you as boring! A lot of more "poppy" music lacks that depth. It's that deep well that the Dead have always drawn from! At the show, we weren't there *yet*, we were still in the process of getting there! :)

I miss Jerry (and Brent Mydland too...sad story there).......a sweeter soul there never was...He just didn't take care of himself....a shame really . He gave it all to make sure that the extended family,roadies, employees GD enterprises , etc. wouldn't get laid off. (plus he didn't want to let the fans down either ) looking back on it now he and the rest of the band really should've taken a few tours off and recuperated from all the drugs and booze and other assorted madness of the untold years of road life.... wish we had Jerry Now god bless Capt. Trips

They worked him to death, beyond his graciousness, he didn't want to play the big arenas. He always said how great it was to open as The Warlocks in a small venue. they pressured him into playing big arenas, cause he's a sensitive dude. They were greedy and used him. He wanted to go to New York, one September and "they", wouldn't let him. Someone met him at the airport in Europe and "they" wouldn't let the dude see Garcia. Garcia made private plans and TOLD "them", "F** you." I saw cockroaches coming out of the woodwork", Jerry said, analogizing folks surrounding him.

sad stuff indeed ,however it's all overshadowed by Jerry's music and wonderfully generous soul . I'm so grateful...no pun intended..to have been alive to witness a great artist of the caliber of Coltrane or Mingus live in action .Jerry Garcia will be remembered by many as one of the great guitar innovators of the 20th century and a really kind dude too......that's what's important

ChrisAndTommy GoodTimeFolkRockShow I think just the reverse. They are in the caliber of Garcia, live in action. but I don't equate them. Nothing wrong in equating them, just a different way of looking at it. Peace

ChrisAndTommy GoodTimeFolkRockShow I think what might have ultimately been his undoing more than anything might have been the smoking. I know drugs and poor eating and all that, but heavy smoking on top of that is just bound to catch up with ya... I agree that they should've taken some more tours off: they only time they did take off was when Jerry's health was really bad

I saw this Jerry a bajillion times, but not THIS Jerry, thank you for posting this. I mean he actually let's go of rosebud to be a soul rock star. He NEVER lets go of Rosebud. Rare. Phil Lesh was correct to wanna sit back and watch. I miss U all so bad. In heaven all the keyboardists will get to jam simultaneously as well. MELVIN, 2020 saw you again. You better be there as well. Jerry loved you. We do too. Keep rocking!

Jerry has warned my soul since I was a really young lady ,seen me thru good times bad times happy and sad but the best time I ever heard him is now ! rip Jerry the music never stopps,
I thank God and The Universe that I was able to appreciate this during my lifetime. I thank Jerry for it.
Thank you good Lord for this footage 💗
Only one word can sum up this performance, "Haunting". Rest in peace Jerry.
or "beautiful"
Beautiful. Just perfect.
Here I sit, blessed by the presence of genius, Thank you Jerry, thank you Bob.
Phil Lesh said later that during this particular performance, he wanted to stop playing and simply watch. Every one knew Garcia was absolutely nailing it.
where is this interviw
Phil Zone!!!!!
That’s because Phil Lesh was nothing more than a fan of talented people
@@joefaccio7580 lol nice trolling
Yes!!! Absolutely love it. I can hear Phil saying that... thanks man.
Holy geezus, so passionate yet so fucking tragic.... only 53 but looking like 75. RIP old fella.
Jerry the great interpreter of Dylan tunes. His heartfelt licks always added so much depth and emotion to Dylan's complex lyrics.
Truer words were never spoken.
Fucking Beautiful! There will never be ANYTHING close to this band. Magic!
magic is the perfect description. I called going to a Dead show 'going to church'
Damn...tears running down my face. "Mona Lisa must've had them Highway blues you can tell by the way she smiles!" Love it!
I agree. I get emotional everytime I hear Jerry sing this song. Dylan's lyrics hit something really deep down within me. And while I can't quite explain what it is or why it is; this song resonates with me like few others do. It's one of those that makes you smile and cry at the same time.
Only got to see the dead with Jerry about a dozen times between summer of 94 and summer of 95. This wAs my favorite memory of him. He looked to me as if he was growing out of the stage ....lol. ...this brought tears to my eyes that evening I couldn't shake the feeling like it was the end of the ride , and it wasn't too much longer that it was. . Rip buddy., You gave so much to so many people we will never forget.
This is the best 10 minutes I ever spent on KZhead
These visions of Jerry are all that remain :-)
wlunsfor we all go on!
One of Bob's absolute best, performed by one of the very, very few who could do it justice. Jerry does this song with love and respect, while still giving it his own imprint. Beautiful.
Damn straight.
jokerman, well said .Jerry took on some that only he could do and show the soul and passion as If Dylan won't for Jerry. Amazing funky runs WOW
right on
jokerman Jerry was really struggling by this point, but a rousing performance. Man...
jokerman Jerry was really struggling by this point, but a rousing performance. Man...
I still love Jerry as much now as I did in 85 through 95= I am a Jerry kid. Love you forever Jerry. We will never forget how much you changed our lives for the better.Thank you.. Peace, love and The Grateful Dead Family
well said sir.
No words, the beauty of this is blinding.
Close to his death, Jerry summons up a powerful, outstanding interpretation / performance of this Dylan classic
Did he know Just so perfect IWT
As the story goes (thanks to Phil Lesh), Garcia decided to finally take advantage of the teleprompters (which nobody in the band liked to do) for this song and I for one am glad he did. A tremendous version that Bob Dylan himself said "that was what I heard in my head".
Still flubbed the "little boy lost" verse too
@@brendanmcmahon1162 what part of “lost” do you not understand?
"We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it" gets me every time. God damn Jerry, RIP
He gives me goosebumps
Ditto and aint it just like the night to play tricks on you when you're trying to be so quiet
♥️⚡💙 ..verbatim, I love this comment.
This is a Bob Dylan song, so it should be "God damn Bob". This version here is horrible. Horrible!! So, fuck you Jerry
You have said IT¡
Not only might this be the most passionate, emotive version of VOJ of all time, but despite a few mumblings here and there, not only might this be Jerry's best performance of the truncated 95 year, and maybe some sort of clarion call, or pre-cursor of things to eventually come, but maybe one of his best vocal performances of the entire 90's
in other words, it might just be the sweetest thing he ever played
That and the 93 Crazy Fingers that comes up on here
Like a person telling you for some unknown reason that they are afraid then suddenly they are gone...only then does it make sense...
@@augie7484 Hi
Definitely! In that Fallout From The Phil Zone disc, this is in there. In the liner notes Phil says comments his amazing Jerry’s solo is.
Goosebumbs on this version... EVERYTIME
There's never been a better interpreter of Dylan's songs.
+Angry Gen X'er Have you ever heard about Richie Havens?
+Jakub Wallflower I saw both Richie Havens and Jerry do Dylan. AGXer is right, and I suspect Dylan would tell you the same...
+Angry Gen X'er I've always thought so!
Cleo Fierro OK he's my favorite of all time too, but my comment stands - Jerry is so great at doing Dylan.
+Cleo Fierro Whoaaa easy there cowboy. I wouldn't say half assed.. This is an excellent version of an excellent song by an excellent writer. Ain't no time to hate.
What a beautiful, understated and well-recorded performance. So sad to lose Jerry way too early.
this is likely my favorite Dylan tune. and the Dead are the only thing I believe in any more. this cut is nothing but tears for me.
z lstpedestrian Put on some "Where'd You Hide the Body" by James McMurtry. If that doesn't give you someone new to believe in, then you need more help than I can offer.
I believe in you
Tears of joy and gratitude. Thank you.
It so amazing how for so many years this still overwhelms me with tears of joy. Thanks Jerry for all the memories!!
When the world around seems all crazy and out of balance, this is where I come. This is what salvation must be like after awhile..... It's given me unspeakable peace and joy. Beautiful.....thank you Jerry & Bob for making this a better world. Lots of love to you.
Even the croakiness and weariness of Jerry's voice, well was a detriment during these last few shows, somehow worked here, and just brought something extra special to these words.
AGREE. WOULDN'T WANT IT ANY OTHER WAY...
Yes...and also in this period's version of Pretty Peggy-o. So much heart and soul in his beautiful voice.
@@grizzlybear4 as well as the 1974 peggyo's, so quiet and full of emotion
@@grizzlybear4 the shows with the loose blue shirt are always as good as it gets. Also my favorite peggy o and tangled.
On some occasions Jerry could surpass his croakiness with pure expressions of emotions, other times he did sound like a frog, That's what keeps me coming back, those brief visions of perfection Jay
The greatest guitarist playing the Nobel Prize Winner's greatest song. Thanks for uploading!
Miss him everyday....
The boys taught me all that I know. Once in the middle of Joshua Tree i laid down to sleep in my tent and off in the far far distance I heard a soft subtle sound. So enthralled I woke up and wandered through the desert and landed at a camp site where some guys were singing with the acoustic VOJ. Hearing is float though the rocks and desert was magical. Turns out the guys were on a Bach party and their plan was shop for a weeks food. I just finished a school camping program and had a weeks worth of food left over. In the am I gave them all I had much to their surprise. It was VOJ that brought us together and VOJ that got you reading this. God bless the Grateful Dead. You all get it. I tear up thinking about it all and what life would be like without it…….miss you Jerry. More than words can tell.
😭
What a wonderful experience. So plausible to those of us who are here to comment!
That sounds like a positive adventure.
People always thought of frampton talking with his guitar. That's great but no one makes their guitar sing like jerry.
The Great Jerry Garcia ....
this version is so incredible. pure emotion dripping off each note
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet ? We sit here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it Lights flicker from the opposite loft In this room the heat pipes just cough The country music station plays soft But there's nothing really nothing to turn off Just Louise and her lover so entwined And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind. In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D-train We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane Louise she's all right she's just near She's delicate and seems like the mirror But she just makes it all too concise and too clear That Johanna's not here The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place. Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously And when bringing her name up He speaks of a farewell kiss to me He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall Oh, how can I explain ? It's so hard to get on And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn. Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues You can tell by the way she smiles See the primitive wallflower frieze When the jelly-faced women all sneeze Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze I can't find my knees." Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel. The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him Saying, "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him." But like Louise always says "Ya can't look at much, can ya man." As she, herself prepares for him And Madonna, she still has not showed We see this empty cage now corrode Where her cape of the stage once had flowed The fiddler, he now steps to the road He writes everything's been returned which was owed On the back of the fish truck that loads While my conscience explodes The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain.
Are you kidding me!!??? Louise holds a handful of rain.....
U
Seems like veneer.
greatest cover band ever and so much more!!!!!!! God Bless The Grateful Dead.
Briam Stevenson ain't nobody do Dylan songs any better, imho...
there are no words for this other than beautiful. miss you dearly, Jer.
I was lucky enough to be front/center for this show. Given this was '95, there was a lot of talk about how Jerry was fading fast. I recall that near the onset of the opening song, Jer broke a string. He was obviously really upset about it, got help and got back on it. My thought was "well, seems like Jerry's still here to me". This version of Visions proved that. It's cool that Phil included this version in "Fall-Out from the Phil Zone" a CD of highlights. On the liner notes, Phil states he felt that Jer's solo in this version of this song was one of his best ever. Wow! It sure is one hell of a soulful Visions!!!
Christopher Perry me too😀
Miss u everyday
me too, bro. I got a ride from Park City and was dropped off and into 15 seats back and I was blown away by this. Sadly he had to read it from an early pad cuz his mind was going. And it BLEW MY MIND
Can’t remember if it was here or Denver where he actually walked off stage for a bit after kicking his equipment around. This song just slays.
72 shows and this was the one that got away. This song spoke to Jerry.
Three days before my sixteenth birthday..feels good to have been alive when they played this. The band, lyrics, groove, Jerry, Bob..lives on
Remember that we can all still be united in peace and love. Those magical moments together are still accessible - not as memory only but as living experience. Our love will not fade away.
I stopped dancing just to watch in awe and the feeling was the same with everyone at the show! This performance had everyone in tears! Always
yeah we all stopped respect
Jerry had so much heart, so much affectation, so much emotion that burst through every line he ever sang; he put you in the place of the song's protagonist and set the mood of a tune better than anyone else I have ever seen, or heard, here not only doing amazing justice to Dylan's music, but lifting the 'visions' to new levels. Sorely missed, ever mourned, Jerry Garcia will remain an iconic and mythologized god of rock and roll until civilization grinds to a stand-still; Zeus to the rest. RIP.
As of writing, this is one of the most pleasing KZhead comments pages I've seen. And yes, this clip shows Jerry still had it right to the end.
Seems to have remained, and yeah, such a lack of negativity is so rare.
Still true.
Absolutely grand!! "Mona Lisa must have had the highway blues..."
I was at this show. What a strong and poignant performance. Jerry was near the end, but still able to wring emotion from every word, every phrase, every note. I remember not even liking it then, thinking it was boring, wanting Morning Dew instead, but what did I know then. Since, I've learned the chords and am learning the words, and have come to appreciate Dylan's poetry (this is from his most poetic album ever, Blonde on Blonde) and Jerry's interpretation.
+garyshow2005 Hi garys. Lessons of life can´t be learned in a day keep on Bobin`
+garyshow2005 well said
I felt the same way! I thought, why not Dew or Standing... what IS this song anyway? Now I find it to be right up at the top of all the primo Jerry ballads; I don't try to rank them. One of the best aspects of the Dead is that process of growing to really appreciate & love songs that first strike you as boring! A lot of more "poppy" music lacks that depth. It's that deep well that the Dead have always drawn from! At the show, we weren't there *yet*, we were still in the process of getting there! :)
garyshow2005 this was long before he left us. Its beyond beautiful and I believe he left his all on that stage. Who could not be moved by this.
garyshow2005 this. such poignant interpretation that its almost other worldly. Wonderinng if he felt it was near his time to go. The peace brings me is hard to put into words I know he had so much more to give. I pray there's peace where you are. Miss and love you.
Goose bumps every time ❤
Jerry is so good..Time won't decay his talent
i remember this performance, it was so intense and a rarely played song, they always blew the roof off of the spectrum
+Oscar Gayer Yeah fo sure on that!
+LIZZIE SANGI Sangi (Lizzie) hi lizzi! (~);}
Oscar Gayer LOLOL YO, Osc! *
Lizzy hit me up on social media Oscar Gayer or Facebook
Oscar Gayer O m'gosh! NOT until I get a bite of that meatloaf
Such a sense of finality to this version. Rewind to 4/22/1986 Berkley Theater--Earth Day. The set 1 Visions of Johanna on that day is so lighthearted. The contrast in energy between 86' and 95' version s staggering.
Agreed. Just played em back to back last night, and Blonde On Blonde too.. sorry, Bob.
"We're sitting here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it..." Jerry could always deliver the moment. RIP, thx forever brother
NEVER GETS OLD! FOREVER GRATEFUL
I was at this show and remember being blown away by this performance.
I suddenly found myself in Philadelphia when my dad passed on March 15, 1995. I am here, so I might as well go see the Dead at the Spectrum. They weren't playing NY, Washington, or Boston. I think this show may have set a record for the number of people looking for tickets. I was walking around with a small "Please" sign and this kind guy walked up to me and sold me a ticket at face. YES! This song and Ramble on Rose made it for me. I also was there the next night to hear the 1st "Unbroken Chain".
Rip to your father
Me too
Great. These songs are so precious. Love Dylan. Thank you Jerry. God bless you. 💕➕💕😇
That's the good stuff right there.
Jeff Clemetson. Absolute BEST statement I ever "heard", in relations to Jerry Garcia. That's it. There's nothing else to add, and nuthin' left to say.
He gave it his all and felt those words on this night
I needed this so bad right now, thanks for the music guys, y'all helped me thru the good times but carried me thru the bad and for that I'm forever grateful
Dead tour dead shows the highlights of my life!
saw jerry at hampton in 91 and 93 long with all the hampton shows( amongst many others) in the gd cAtologue do not miss what a wonderful world visions.... classic....
Oh man...incredibly beautiful rendition.
Bless The Jerry Man! I miss you so much...
I'm only 24. And they say that Jerry's good moments were few and far between in these late years... but man.... these good late moments are so golden
My first show was amazing in 1968. The 70's rocked all the way. 80s brought the "Touch heads" and great shows from the middle to the first of the 90s. JMHO, from personal experience, and we all experience things differently. Peace and music.
YES his skills although brilliant were showing the dark side of the heroin addiction. Still very powerful
I feel like this song pretty well describes how I feel at the moment. Nobody understands me like Jerry.
... or Bob, perhaps.
Jesse Greer agreed
Jerry was indeed tired, frayed, even disillusioned in the Spring of '95...but he was far from musically defeated. This version of this rare, delicate Dylan Gem matched the first time they played it (which I saw) back at Hampton in the Spring of '86. Thanks for posting.
RIP my honey... Tear in my eyes wachin' this video..!
I can relate
"Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues, you can tell by the way she smiles." -- One of Dr. Bob's best images ever, and Jerry does it justice.
One of Jerry's last coherent ballad performances...
It's the BEST, Jerry! THE BEST!!
Amazing.. it makes feel something I cannot express..40 years later I cant describe it..
every time his voice cracks, I'm done. Tears rolling.
😭😭
This whole show was hot, best Ramble on Rose from that era, hell quite awhile at that point.Really inspired spring tour as a whole.Then that summer...what a shame.RIP brother Jer-Ber
Thank you very much for sharing.
Almost 20 years ago and still haunts the memories.
I'm just grateful for every bit this all we have left
I cant believe how many people, after how much they say they love GD, and that they "know there music" still hate...if you KNOW anything, you know that every preformance, good, bad, sad, or mad, was special beyond believe and cannot/will not ever be replicated in TIME...FOREVER GRATEFUL FOREVER DEAD
Right on brother
Some videos I can't understand why there's even one thumbs down. I can understand being indifferent to it if you don't like the grateful dead, but clicking the thumbs down implies that the person was expecting fire but got rain. But this is where it's at if you like the grateful dead. Some ppl just don't like anything after go to heaven came out.
Maybe they're just pranksters
Just curious, is a "prankster" the same thing as a friggin' arse-hole?
Thumbs downers on good music usually are Beyonce, Jay z, Kanye and Bieber fans.. they're basically, for all intents and purposes ..Deaf!!
They're either trolls who don't like the music in general, or "just another picky Deadhead". Everyone who is into music with a mind and soul knows, there is nothing to compare with or like Jerry, and a Grateful Dead concert. Later on, there were a lot of iffy shows. But do you stop loving your spouse because not every time you make love it's fireworks through the roof? I never felt conned no matter how much he fucked it up.
Don Henley didn't like the Dead, but who cares, that's just his sensibilities. He's a great songwriter and singer, but he just didn't get it. Hornsby tried to turn him on...I was at a show of his in Malibu where he explained what happened when he took him to a show. I get where he was coming from but don't agree. But then again as much as I like the Eagles, I wouldn't bother to see them live anymore...yaaaaaaaawn. Might as well listen to a record.
How can I explain? it's so hard to get on. and these visions of Johanna...kept me up...past the dawn
Love the way Jerry sang this song.
he picked really good notes to go along with , too.
Watching this again has tears streaming down my face. Jerry had a way of reaching up to the pinnacles and down to the depths of this human experience and the beauty he brought to this realm makes my heart & soul ache for the yearning to go home. Up to each of us to create what beauty we can while we're here. Miss you Jer....
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. This music will live forever because of folks who share their recordings. This is one of my favorite songs and to hear jerry singing it is really a gift.
Ten minutes of perfection.
...uncle jerry bringing raindrops to eyes....so much love!!!
Hats off to Garcia. Remembering all the lyrics and rendition in his style
The beauty of wisdom. ❤️
This brings up so many emotions when I hear it and realize that those years passed by in a gust of wind. So many things happened in my life, happy and sad things, but I am still here... And when I hear this performance I am totally back in time. And can almost cry.
One of my last shows before we lost, Him. R.I.P. Jerry. Thank You for a REAL GOOD Time!
I was at this show.. the whole run was a frantic BC of the unbroken chain break out. I was 14 I don’t even remember this on my set list the just??? for it. Maybe 15 years later I was in Chile alone for months and I had the lyrics pretty right by the time I hiked out at least 1/2 of them it a long a song. Little boy lost takes himself so seriously …. likes to live to live dangerously… I don’t know how I remember lyrics I don’t remember hearing 20 prior. I don’t understand what happened in those shows but somehow the band was telling me what was coming. They always have I won’t be alone ever cause this band, thank you
stunning -- absolutely amazing
I miss Jerry (and Brent Mydland too...sad story there).......a sweeter soul there never was...He just didn't take care of himself....a shame really . He gave it all to make sure that the extended family,roadies, employees GD enterprises , etc. wouldn't get laid off. (plus he didn't want to let the fans down either ) looking back on it now he and the rest of the band really should've taken a few tours off and recuperated from all the drugs and booze and other assorted madness of the untold years of road life.... wish we had Jerry Now god bless Capt. Trips
