I’ve recently downloaded 135 versions of this song > Morning Dew. From multiple bands , musicians. From the original artist Bonnie Dobson , G Dead , JRAD and others. This version is absolutely beautiful. Was recorded in a church in Texas. I looked up the top 25 songs covered. And surprised this song is not one of them. G Dead May 8 th , 1977 is another incredible version. Let the good times roll
I have heard many versions of this song from late 60's or early 70's to today, and I can say this is the best by far. The vocals are sincere and strong and the musicianship is up with the heavy hitters. Best arrangement by far.
Great version mm🎸thanks for post...The Jeff Beck ,Rod Stewart also a fine version..must be 40+ years old but stands the test 🎸🎸🎸not to forget that Nazareth did a great heavy version with Manny great guitar and Dan's haunting vocal🎸🎸
Years ago when I heard Long John Baldry on this song . Thankyou Bonnie. The depth, love. angst,.Mr Taylor you have set the and with your BAND a beautiful Cut. You Nailed IT.
I was at this show at a small church in DT San Antonio,TX with the best acoustics ever and the great talent of Michael Martin & The Infidels (awesomely talented local band). What a show it was!
absolutely stunning guitar work and powerful melodious voice. It is the best version of this song out there. I can (and do) listen to it over and over. I think Mike does it the way the song was meant to be sung.
Lyrics: Walk Me Out In The Morning Walk me out in the morning to my room Walk me out in the morning dew today Can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey I can't walk you out in the morning dew today I Thought I heard a baby cry this morning I Thought I heard a baby cry today You didn't hear no baby cry this morning You didn't heard no baby cry today I Thought I heard a young men morn this morning I Thought I heard a young men morn today You didn't hear no young men morn this morning You didn't heard no young men morn today Walk me out in the morning to my honey Walk me out in the morning dew today I can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey I can't walk you out in the morning dew today Where have all the people gone my honey? Where have all the people gone today? There's no need for you to be worry about all those people You never seen those people anyway Walk me out in the morning dew to my honey Walk me out in the morning dew today I guess it doesn't matter at all I guess it doesn't matter anyway
Very nice, Deadlike version. There are so many great covers of this that I couldn’t really choose a favorite. But Jeff Beck’s from Truth is in the conversation
This is a cover of the Grateful Dead version of "Morning Dew". Damn good one too. Just freaked me out to notice they are playing in a church, considering the post apocalyptic reference of the song.
Casbeers was an old church, and the music played there was usually ironic, considering. It's now a hot dog restaurant, and while that might seem even odder, it's way more packed than ever. Only now it's hipsters, not hippies. lol
@@krazkayaker62 You are correct. However, this is almost a note-for-note cover of the Grateful Dead's arrangement. Including lyrical tweaks that the Dead employed and the guy plays both Bob Weir and Jerry Garcia licks throughout. And the Deads arrangement is different than of the other bands that have covered this tune. Lastly, he does include the last line that Jerry added to this tune "I guess it doesn't matter anyway"
Exceptional!! Leans very, very heavily on the Dead's highly re-worked interpretation of the original, so credit where credit's due, however. Very strong vocals (a Dead frailty), tight but quite simplistic guitar interplay compared to the GD - there is simply none of Phil's or Bob's sophistication in the bass or rhythm, or even tonal subtleties, but the extraordinary solemnity and purity of the delivery is near-genius. Stunning sound engineering here, just beautiful - I think the small venue (appears to be a church with miraculous acoustic properties) and uncluttered P.A. just project perfectly. There's a wonderful sense of divinity to this performance, just spiritually moving, almost prayerful. The Dead's take is more Wagnerian, cosmic. The difference is monastic St. Augustine versus universe-shattering Bhagavad-Gita. I generally resist drawing comparisons between the Dead and other bands, but with two superheavyweight efforts like this, a little deconstruction is forgivable, no?
it always just amazes me how many people will critisize a artist just on fact they have never heard of them before and yes I my self have heard this song by grateful Dead & Nazereth to which both bands played the song in many different styles nazereths early version recored on live tv is really my fav version but then later recorded again with some kind of disco beat that totaly stunk in my opinion and GD also released a version with some kind of Jamacan reagge disco beat but this very good #1
This is Michael Martin from San Antonio, TX. He also has a band that goes by the Infidels. He's is probably best know for his stint touring with Tom Russell. Look up Tom's videos and you can she Michael in action on Letterman and more...
its a song written about nuclear fallout, the day "s" after the world blows itself up. Sad how human's talk about love and kindness, while at the same time plotting the destruction of their so called enemies. powerful song foretelling the future.
Really. Why even compare this version to the Dead's when it's not even they're song to begin with. That alone speaks volumes of the Grateful Dead's rendition.
I wasn't criticizing the musicianship, which is the only good thing here. Good phrasing in the vocals and good feel all around. There just isn't really a song here musically speaking, which is typical of the Dead.
13 years later and still listening. I love Long John's version but Michael really put the meat on the bones with this version. Incredible

Thanks for sharing this jem. It's priceless. Spectacular is an understatement.
49 year ole tune
Timeless......... for me, one of the best tunes ever made.
Tnx for uploading
this is the benchmark by which all other versions of this song should be measured, bar none.
A good, valid cover of a beautiful folk song written by Bonnie Dobson.
what a beautiful version of this song
I was at this show at a small church in DT San Antonio,TX with the best acoustics ever and the great talent of Michael Martin & The Infidels (awesomely talented local band). What a show it was!
My favorite rendition.
As a matter of fact I rate this as my favourite you tube vid ever. I am stunned. Compare with all the greater known artists. This kicks ass.
Brilliant.. love this version
One of the most moving versions I've ever heard!!
Excellent rendition
absolutely stunning guitar work and powerful melodious voice. It is the best version of this song out there. I can (and do) listen to it over and over. I think Mike does it the way the song was meant to be sung.
check Bonnie Dobson w/ Robert Plant
You're right this is the best and it's not close. I've not heard of this guy til recently but he absolutely frickin nails it!!
Hello I concur with you, Bonnie wrote a good song and Mick does the song justice.
Was looking around for versions of this song…these musicians were unknown to me. A beautiful performance…honest and heartfelt.
Love this song
Probably my favorite interpretation of this song. A simple song done with power and emotion. Kudos!
The Dead covered it. Bonnie Dobson wrote it.
Beautifully rendered!!!
Long john still no 1 have a listen absolute class
So Right, Baldrys voice gives the topic the gravitas it needs
I posted about Jeff and Rods version..but totally agree about your post... brilliant from long John..and so atmospheric 🎸🎸🎸
This shows the beautiful simplicity of music ~
GREAT VERSION!!!!!
absolute awesomeness...I saw them play in San Antonio, Tx. Outstanding performance!
Superb 👍
This is absolutely the best version of this song by Bonnie Robson.❤
You're right this is the best and it's not close. I've not heard of this guy til recently but he absolutely frickin nails it!!
Most definitely the *_'Mona Liza'_* of performance art ....stunning virtuosity.
Nicely done. Great version of a great song.
this is still my fav version !
Lyrics:
Walk Me Out In The Morning
Walk me out in the morning to my room
Walk me out in the morning dew today
Can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey
I can't walk you out in the morning dew today
I Thought I heard a baby cry this morning
I Thought I heard a baby cry today
You didn't hear no baby cry this morning
You didn't heard no baby cry today
I Thought I heard a young men morn this morning
I Thought I heard a young men morn today
You didn't hear no young men morn this morning
You didn't heard no young men morn today
Walk me out in the morning to my honey
Walk me out in the morning dew today
I can't walk you out in the morning dew my honey
I can't walk you out in the morning dew today
Where have all the people gone my honey?
Where have all the people gone today?
There's no need for you to be worry about all those people
You never seen those people anyway
Walk me out in the morning dew to my honey
Walk me out in the morning dew today
I guess it doesn't matter at all
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
Brilliant
Amazing Mike!
I like coming here. Such a real, natural version.
I concur with you.
@@jamesayers5617 Ahhh. Here I am again. Hello, anyone else. All is well. If it isn't, it will be.
by far the best version I'v heard yet !
Pls check our Long John Baldry
Walk me out in the morning dew, the way it is sung it is just amazing. Nazareth also has a cut of it. Rock with it.
Very nice, Deadlike version. There are so many great covers of this that I couldn’t really choose a favorite. But Jeff Beck’s from Truth is in the conversation
if anyone says this guitar playing is inferior to others I say HORNSWOGGLE !!!
This man gets it
Best youtube treasure
9min 16secs of pure heavenly sounds
Totally utterly.
THE BEST VERSION............!!!
Still listening to this, what brilliant guitar solo???
Who is this band playing the best version of morning dew other then Jerry Garcia & GD. Thank you Bonnie Dodson for writing this song!!!
The Infidels from San Antonio, TX. The band's fearless leader is Michael Martin
This is an amazingly good version of this classic. I like it better than any other version I've heard - including the Dead's.
This is really Great!! What a nice performance,.. you made a good song a beautifull song with excellent guitar playing!
These guys are the guys who play Walk Me Out in The Morning Dew better than the Dead.
This is a very Grateful Cover :-)
WoW!
Rineke RobertsonvanDam - Actually a Bonnie Bobsen tune from 1961. Jeff Beck recorded with Rod Stewart in 1967-68. So well before GD.
GD were playing it by 1966, This, very nice cover is more like the GD cover than the JB cover.
That's why it's a great grateful Cover :-)
@@greenman7612 Bonnie Dobson, not Bobsen
@@greenman7612 I think the poster meant it was a cover of the song as the Dead performed it - which is a massive rework.
Mr. Taylor's version is by far, the best I have ever heard of this song. Hands down, or cut & dried.
Hmm, maybe you haven't heard the covers done by Long John Baldry, The National, Tim Rose or Lulu.
This is a cover of the Grateful Dead version of "Morning Dew". Damn good one too. Just freaked me out to notice they are playing in a church, considering the post apocalyptic reference of the song.

FYI...Folk song written and performed by Bonnie Dobson from Toronto Canada. The Dead and Plant etc covered it

@ZunSuperGirl Jesus folks - I was just stating MY opinion. I like this version better than the Dead's. So chill. You are entitled to your own opinion.

wonderful, insightful review.
Lovely dew..
Very enjoyable comment.
perfect Review
Tony,
With your lovely words and Your beautiful interpretation makes me think you’d be a great music critic. Thanks for sharing
greg allman's version is my favorite. I really like this this. Thank you for this.
loving this more and more.
Very pretty
My flabber is ghasted.
Class!
To say they play this better than the Dead would depend on your definition of "better".
Hey this rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a big blunt and a diet coke and i could listen to this all day.
Loveeeee
Great cover but I still give the edge to Allman Brothers cover as my favorite. Thanks for posting
Walk me out in the morning Fondue 🫕 my honey 🍯
Yo!!!...... Fry Babies!!! Bonnie Dobson !!! not the dead !!!!!!!!!
it always just amazes me how many people will critisize a artist just on fact they have never heard of them before and yes I my self have heard this song by grateful Dead & Nazereth to which both bands played the song in many different styles nazereths early version recored on live tv is really my fav version but then later recorded again with some kind of disco beat that totaly stunk in my opinion and GD also released a version with some kind of Jamacan reagge disco beat but this very good #1
watch out where you step, there's some dew in the air and on the ground.
i really think this is good. I would like to just remind you this is about total destruction, and every bit as relevant as today!
because the night walk me out in the morning dew
Crying out for harmonies....that aren't there.
Just fantastic. The Third Mind brought me here -- Dave Alvin's new band.
This is Michael Martin from San Antonio, TX. He also has a band that goes by the Infidels. He's is probably best know for his stint touring with Tom Russell. Look up Tom's videos and you can she Michael in action on Letterman and more...

if you cant feel this there maybe something wrong check it out
he's amazing...the Allman version blows the Beatles version away...yet yours is so too...
The beatles? The allmans yeah! Gr8 vocals & some stellar Skydog, way in the past....
Oh by the way, Duane & Gregg honorable mention.
The Beatles did a version?
@@jereuter01 Nope, just for the record, they didn't.
Robert Plant version is also worth a listen 🎧
Oh sweet nuffins
Whenare you guys touring the UK?
A Special Song ?😆
Real musicians.......as for the rubbish pop stars of today, watch and learn!
Really. Why even compare this version to the Dead's when it's not even they're song to begin with. That alone speaks volumes of the Grateful Dead's rendition.
I wasn't criticizing the musicianship, which is the only good thing here. Good phrasing in the vocals and good feel all around. There just isn't really a song here musically speaking, which is typical of the Dead.
In case you're implying it's a Dead song... they didn't write it. Bonnie Dobson (a folk singer) did. I hope we all know that in here!
Unless you play a fret less instrument, then you can bee sharp for everyone who ain’t got nuffins with you at all.
@HiyonZunshyne
Not really.
There’s only seven letters in the musical alphabet
Who are they?
Michael Martin and The Infidels
Lotta songs are really the same tune
Why in the hell is he playing Hendrix/SRV on top of Bonnie Dobson?
Cuz he felt like it.
I like the GD & Long John Baldry versions BETTER. So there!
??? version 1 version 2 version 3 etc.pp but never Bonnie Dobson ??
by the Way - this Version is ä GD-plagiarism , nothing more
according to Dobson, "all Tim Rose did was take Freddie Neil's changes" that's the version grateful dead did.
