    Awesome! Jerry on the Travis Bean, Donna in tune, John his royal coolness, Ronny Tutt on the drums and Keith really rips that piano. Love this!

    Thinking back, I still remember I was proud to be his friend.

      Knowing Jerry like I don't I think he probably would've wanted Donna to stay in the band after Keith died if she had been up for it, I think he loved what she contributed and made room for it as often as possible. Also I think the only time she ever subtracted anything was in 72 (a year a lot of people love for the jams etc, thus the anger. I'm not defending anyone here tho, either side of the hill) when she didn't have monitors, all the 73 stuff and later was great and there are examples (Winterland 74 Scarlet) where she actually leads the band just jamming on spacey vocal melodies, which Jerry echos or comps with his guitar. She's good shit.
      And That's All I Have to Say About That

      Donna sang without monitors and got kind of drowned out in her Dead performances. She couldn't hear herself sing, which is why she can be hit or miss with the Dead. Not her fault.

      My mom was in their circle of friends until around 1980 when she moved back to the Midwest to start a family. She’s stayed in contact and we’d see them when they came to Indiana. According to her from 1975 on he was loaded every time he got on stage. In the late 70s he switched over to cocaine for a bit then was doing both by the end of the 70s. The entire band except for Weir had issues with either alcohol cocaine or heroin. Bill Jerry Keith & Brent after him were all addicted to heroin.

    Keith’s doesn’t a great job on some of the more New Orleans style piano stuff like Catfish John. Wish he soloed more in the dead. Love Jerry’s playing but I never understood why he’d want to monopolize the solos and jams the way he did. Part of the fun of being in a band is getting to hear what other musicians have to say musically
