Phil Lesh is my favourite rock bassist. if you listen to this with some good headphones and close your eyes you can hear him up and down the scales driving the music. Been a big fan of him for ever. Lovely player.
He just left the public stage..Retired that's where they go to retire..No coincidence that he disappears right after Chris released the info that the brotherhood was over.
I heard Remedy years ago, thought, this is a band that rocks, then didn’t keep track until they had a full body of work, and life being what it is, it’s been great to have full length concert videos to marvel at. Now to find this video is like a gift from the almighty! Like Robert Hunter is up there in the big yonder goin’: “Yep, this here’s a classic! Hey Jer, get a load o’ this!”
Love love love when Chris covers GD, I'm an old DH hippie, Chris is hippie to the bone. Respects and really pours it out when he plays Dead songs, throw Phil in and insta magic. The tribe loves you BIG TIME. Here's to u Mr. Robinson
@@thewiltedplums I love him too but man, I don't know what sound that he was using with CRB but was overused and got annoying at times. I would love to know what the sound was called though.
chris is wonderful singing the dead. his voice is perfect. jerry in heaven has got to happy that the music certainly never stopped. sadly i will be away when chris comes to boston but come back soon.
This song remains one of the closest to my heart during my darkest times minutes hours seconds .......I miss you sooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's voice in my opinion is clean. It comes across real tonal. Sure would have liked to have been there. But the video editing is on spot hi lighting instruments on que. Lockin good
It's gotta be super hard to be one of these musicians that cover dead songs, I play guitar ( not well) and when I try jamming with the dead I always end up putting guitar down an dancing🤪
Chris and co. are carrying on the traditions of authentic American music in the continuing onlslaught of crap, I mean rap "music" which just doesn't go away.
People can talk shit on Chris all they want, but when you insult this man's vocal ability, you automatically lose all credibility! Vocally, nobody in the music business has a more soulful voice! Simply the most soulful rock voice of all time!
Used to be that way. He's lost a ton through the years. He's actually had to adjust how he sings, so the soul is been stripped down a bit. His 1996/1997 vocals ain't coming back.
I love Chris, but halfway through this rendition i realized he is no place to doubt John Mayer who has absolutely killed Althea on multiple occasions and was much better vocally imo on this song
As much as I enjoy hearing Mayer play with Dead And Company I wish it was Chris playing instead. His voice is just beautiful. In a perfect world Phish, Bobby, Mickey, Bill & Chris Robinson would all be playing together.
Yeah... I've now heard Mayer sing this a ton of different times and Chris Robinsons vocals here are nowhere near as good as Mayers, and Mayer can kill it on the solos. I wouldn't really care if Chris hadn't been a complete dick and talk shit about Bob's choice of Mayer for Dead and Co. Sorry Chris, you're vocals here are just sub-par.
I've seen Chris Robinson sing this song many times at Terrapin with Phil. The soloists sound tepid here. But Chris Robinson is not the problem. Listen to CR @ 4:50 to the end. No way John Mayer can come close, and I like John Mayer's Althea.
if Family guy rescinds the Mayer dig then so can you. Plus NO ONE is as humbled as Jon when he's up there playing. Chris thinks he should be up there and Jon's just happy to be involved.
Chris Robinson talked shit about John Mayer playing Dead songs... I find it odd that Chris needs to look at he music sheet every 10 seconds 🤬. Weird for a "Dead Head"
The song is nine minutes long. I bet you couldn't learn the lyrics and recite them by heart. Let alone sing them in tune and in time. Give the man credit for a job very well done.
I don’t know, the lyric structure of Althea is a tough one, I’d rather have Chris or anyone focus on the meaning and musicality rather than be concerned about the memorization, I do Althea too and it’s about 20 verses shorter but harder to remember than the entire Dylan’s Isis!
Lol and this clown said John Mayer has no place in Dead & Co... CR, you had to read the teleprompter through most of one of the Dead’s most famous songs... And butchered the singing anyway... Stick with “Hard to Handle” bud.
John Mayer got sober for the Dead and plays with humility and grace. Chris Robinson acts like a drunk gospel singer while forgetting the words. See y'all at Dead & Co when this lockdown bullshit hits the fan.
Completely disagree but glad you’re keeping track, I want to do a cover with my daughter as a duet, hope we pull it off, I want to hear what it sounds like.

genius....and he has a PHD in Composition from Berkley....go figure.
Good Jerry sound too....
Owen Tuckett you are right. I alwAys listen with headphones for that BASS
@@edwhite7475 Phil took composition classes at UCB but never got a degree. See his memoir for details.
Love Chris’s vocals on one of my favorite dead songs. Don’t care who is singing or playing their music, I’m just glad it’s never stopped
"Althea" I could hear in any shape or form and love it. Jerry's magic guitar work is and will always be the standard, this is pretty good too.
Todd Petty agree. Dont care iF Phil lesh sings half of all

1:31 neal looks so happy. He is and always will be special. Rest In Peace ☮️ ❤️✌🏼⚡️
I know, right. That still just blows my mind. He had what seems to me, is the dream. I just don't get it.
He just left the public stage..Retired that's where they go to retire..No coincidence that he disappears right after Chris released the info that the brotherhood was over.
neal casal and eric krasno what a pair of guitarists!
I love it when other guitarists can touch the Jerry vibe their leads and it wonderful to hear the music still playing on....Go Phil !
Chris has one of the most soulful voices i have ever heard. I love seeing him play with Phil and Friends.
He KILLS this song! I totally agree. Did you see the show with CR & Sco couple years ago at Terrapin? Great stuff.
The air apparent as far as I could see and specially hear so sad they went with John Mayer I don't think I'll ever understand that move.
He can sing..at least u can say ... Not any kind of a singing voice, but I shall give him that..likley better than I.

Fantastic performance! One of my favorite Dead song!
This is beautiful
Absolutely. Chris earned his feathers too, such a sweet page in musical history.
That's the best althea cover I've ever listened
Neal and Kraz...two of the most tasteful guitar players on stage together. Awesome.
Who are they? Sorry, can you share their full names? I want to look them up. Thanks!
I was there right up at the stage!!
BEAUTIFUL !!!
WONDERFUL JOB GUYS !
That look on Phil's face at 2:00. So perfect.
I caught that too
I was there. It was an awesome fest.
Neal Casal is a beast!!!!
This reminds me of great Dead moments!!
This is the cut been searching for
Stinking hot version!
Phil has some pretty cool friends!
This song remains one of the closest to my heart during my darkest times minutes hours seconds .......I miss you sooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Miss you Neal Casal!!!
love love love ☺ to say I was there
As beautiful as this is, we see Phil and know that it will never be the same. I love this interpretation and it's on my jam list
So true. Never will. So good to see Phil and have it still with us as we were with them.

Real nice job on the Rhodes.
Chris's subtle twang is a great a great fit.
I gave one of my best pairings to Eddie Harsch to give to Chris thank YOU Eddie for being one of the coolest humans I've ever met

You said it for me.
Or have you lost all credibility saying you love his voice .....I think so. Sucks to be you.
Used to be that way. He's lost a ton through the years. He's actually had to adjust how he sings, so the soul is been stripped down a bit. His 1996/1997 vocals ain't coming back.

Mayer never even like the Dead....
@-- I agree, I love the dead but the pick had everything to do with money, JM would bring in the younger crowd.
@@evertking1 Mayer shreds and is slotting in absolutely brilliantly. People complain about everything but the music never stopped
They both did a great job
Haven't seen Chris Robinson since the Crowes back in 1991. Good stuff.
Scott Walton you missed alot w just what the crowes did
Scott Walton check out CRB. Lots of great music!
Wow. You missed all the best years from 1992-1997.

This is dope as fuxk mang
Good Jerry sound too....
As much as I enjoy hearing Mayer play with Dead And Company I wish it was Chris playing instead. His voice is just beautiful. In a perfect world Phish, Bobby, Mickey, Bill & Chris Robinson would all be playing together.
In a perfect world Jerry would still be playing with GD. I hear ya though, it's nice to dream about what ifs...
Does Jerry right, Stella er! Bluesey to the point of wrecklessness. 💎
RIP Neal
I wanna hear Chris sing with JRAD please !
Man, that would be perfect... Wow... That would be.
Any classical music buffs out there know what piece is that riff from??
does any one know if one can camp at lookn' with their dogs? i want to go next year but can not leave my dogs behind.

What guitar? 4:40
Wow! This guy was talking shit about Mayer? 😂😂
+robert jones do you play an instrument?
triggered! ^
He can't play more than a lick, but he sings circles around Mayer on this song, IMO. And I like Mayer's Althea.
Splitting hairs. Both are very good. Chris needs to chill a bit.

Neal’s sound was like Jerry with trippy effects. He would have been a better lead guitar than Johnny boy
C u soon at the crossroads..
Chris one of my fav hippies, but who is that bass player
Your kidding
@@john.damato2655
Of course I am. DH class of 77, Cornel
sorry, no man is like jerry
It looked like the great musician to Chris Robinson's right was worried that he would over sing, and then he settled in.
Chris Robinson talked shit about John Mayer playing Dead songs... I find it odd that Chris needs to look at he music sheet every 10 seconds 🤬. Weird for a "Dead Head"
i like Chris but it's just somehow diminished when he has to constantly check the lyrics

THANK YOU!!!!
I wanna kiss 💋😘 him!!
Chris Robinson should have been the heir apparent some might disagree but you can't underrate his singing ability way past a John Mayer
John Mayer got sober for the Dead and plays with humility and grace. Chris Robinson acts like a drunk gospel singer while forgetting the words. See y'all at Dead & Co when this lockdown bullshit hits the fan.
I miss Jerry but chri S does it right
far better than JM
Drink your Kool aid MFR!! Mayer runs circles around Chris. And Kate Hudson smashed Jon after leaving Chris!! Ha ha!!
not sorry
Chris Robinson looks like a very nice person & good singer-
he sings worse then Phil...
Yeaaaaa!!!! LMAO!!!
Worst version of Althea on UA-cam.
Lol you’ve lost your mind
Completely disagree but glad you’re keeping track, I want to do a cover with my daughter as a duet, hope we pull it off, I want to hear what it sounds like.
sorry phil, but no
No?
