60 Minutes II November 12, 2003 with Charlie Rose interviewing the remaining Grateful Dead members. An interesting mix of material including historical and a "flash mob scene" at 710.....
Jerry's reason for allowing taping is honestly one of the most sincere things I've ever heard any celebrity say before. "Well they bought a ticket and paid for that performance, so its theres to take and listen to whenever they want if they can get a recording. We can't charge them for it twice, they already paid." Obviously that isn't exact but it's close. Thats such a refreshing pov and tbh is the way it should be. I wish that started a standard in the music industry where it was common for a fan to receive a free copy of the nights show they attended. Like a sbd download if you had proof of attendance. Lmao, sorry to ramble, that would never happen. Its a nice thought tho lol.✌
"Don't forget to pickup your Betty Board at the gate B4 U head out." Lol! 😅 We had it good but not that good. That's like a glimpse into Dead Head heaven 🏟️🌈📼
@@josevillarreal9920 lol, that would be great!!! Imagine having to hand those out! But We get soundboard access to every show. And I like Phish so I get to double down! Id say we got it about as good as a head could ask for at this present time.✌
This brings back memories of the mid 80's for me. Smoking a joint with my friends in whoever's room that had the best stereo and listening to the Dead, Black Sabbath, Zeppelin and all of the coolest stuff. It was a time, that really can never come back as I was coming of age and things were so fresh, new and exciting.
This was so good Phil Lesh is so down to earth and passionate about trying to help jerry with his addiction. This was a real treat to watch and I thank you
Did he love the drug.. or was he and his body addicted and literally needed it. Would have been a good Q, but we know so much more now about addiction in 2021. Just saw dead and co. 2 nights, happy the music plays on.
Fame led to Jerry's addiction early on he never wanted fame he wanted to ride the music. To hear Phil say this is hurtful yet I feel what he is saying. Jerry loved the boys and the music more then the drug. The drug made him forget the fame and glory and just be there with the boys riding the music, when you have people comparing you to Jesus, then yeah I'd say your pretty famous. He never wanted it, just like they said Jerry thought the music should always be Free. If that's any indication of who he was. Miss you Jerry I know you smiling down on us.
@@johnthebaptist8284 I hate to be that guy but if the band really did put Jerry first they would have taken an extended break. And if it holds true that Jerry would have just went out with JGB then they were being selfish. I like all the guys and life is hard. This is the unbiased truth tho.
Jimmy Herring is one badass guitar player Thank You CBS for sharing this, I remember how happy we were when we knew the Music Never Stopped Herring is amazing Love him in Col. Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit & Project Z & Of Course! lead guitarist in Widespread M. F. Panic!💯🔥❤👣💥👣
That tour with Herring as 'The Dead' was fantastic. Definitely the peak of their post Jerry era. Was fortunate enough to see him with Col. Bruce Hampton at Wilmer's Park
As a deadhead born after Jerry's passing, right at the end of the 90's, it's so cool to see this old historic footage, I had no idea how goofy the guys were lol, they're literally just a group of nerds who found lightning in a bottle and became the most American band of all time
In the early 2000s I missed the 90s and the Brent era too but I wasn't old enough to enjoy them prior to that though I remember hearing some of it before that.
This is from 2003 dead. Definitely one of the best if not the best post Jerry lineup. Further def had some hot shows and moments and deadco is a perfect culmination of all the efforts, but yeah, fall 02 and summer 03 was a definite Apex. The three set shows with the acoustic set, hunter playing at setbreak, Dylan first set sit inside singing Jerry's songs, the Beatles bust outs. Dream set every night with China->Rider and Scarlet->Fire in the same set. Just fucking awesome.
You have to remember this was Garcias' gig. Garcia was a brilliant businessman, musician and free thinker. Garcia took this to where it is. A humanitarian, JERRY GARCIA was a force to be reckoned with. They grossed 36 mill in three months - Jerry Garcia, Good Morning America. First show, 1970.
I’m going to see them in concert this summer 2019, they have John Mayer playing with them and it’s wonderful! They are playing with passion and jamming into a new future! You should go see them if at all possible, I’m going to 4 or 5 shows this summer tour 🎸🇺🇸🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Saw my first D&C show that summer. Ignorantly I had dismissed them as I was only familiar with John's pop candy and not his playing. When I saw them I was just blown away!! IMO they are the closest thing to recreating a Dead show since "The Dead" in '03. Was all geared up to tour in 2020 when...well you know :(
Agreed. John Mayer is an excellent addition! I like him in that position even moreso that I liked Trey's bit during their 50th anniversary shows....that said though, while I might prefer John Mayer's guitar contributions, I much prefer Trey's voice. John's singing still doesn't quite mesh for me.
Interesting. Jerry was so far gone he couldn't make it back. It was brilliant that they allowed people to record and share the music. It really helped their success. Everybody loved them.
What a fantastic legacy these guys have left.thank you for having the foresight to let these fantastic live recordings be recorded,So different to a corporate suit greed.Pioneers.thank you for helping me get through a tough time in my life,Rest in Peace Jerry,thanks for getting me acquanted with the major scale again.
Perhaps if the rest of the band listened to Jerry after Brent died and geared things down to a more manageable schedule that would in turn give Jerry time to get healthy, things could have been different. But like most things in life, there's a payroll to meet.....
Community. People decided to try trusting one another, and being honest about themselves. The essence of all religions (and no religion, too), actually embodied and put into practice. Happy to report...it works like charm 🙂💜
I felt like it ended in 1995 & having seen every iteration of the band since then, by now the shows feel more & more like visiting someone in the hospital on life support
There is a narrative that is "The Greatest story ever told" But as Bob Dylan eloquently put with a song he never released "Let's keep it between us" It was always bigger than even the whole band They created an existence a spirit that is growing ever bigger Jerry was a person who was committed a workaholic That same guy you work with who turns up really early, then leaves really late 100% focused and committed to the collective
It’s interesting to hear them talk about Jerry and his addictions. If you read a bit more about them, they all had drug/alcohol problems (mostly booze or cocaine), so generally, when they did their interventions, they had no leg to stand on. Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black. It’s sad tho, because with Jerry, his physical decline was so shocking. At 53, he looked like a 75 year old - he just aged so fast. Probably a combination of being a junkie, a diabetic (bad sweet tooth) and nicotine addiction, plus he just poured so much of his life energy into playing music/beings on the road. I think anyone who puts that amount of physical/soul energy out there tends to age fast. RIP Jerry. One of the greats. There’s a quote in one of the recent books about him considering putting on the brakes and getting healthy and “living off the ice cream money - a la Cherry Garcia”. From what I understand, the business challenges and overhead they kept was just too much - they HAD to keep touring to keep those many mouths fed. Jerry, generous to a fault (his own health).
But Jerry died and greed was adopted, ego installed, poor vocal overintonation and voices that didn’t live the experience entered. I love them much but these are valid points.
Man Charlie could you sound any more clueless about the grateful dead when you seem so surprised that they don’t play touch of grey at every show. “ your fans want to hear your hit”. Yeah that’s right Charlie, listen to all those upset fans in the crowd booing at the end of the shows When they realized know more songs are going to be played and they didn’t hear touch of grey
you might want to consider what an interviewer's job is before you call someone out on how they went about it. Rose was doing something most folks who are veteran pros at the job do, ask a question he knows the answer to for the benefit of listeners who know nothing about the subject. Musicians get it that one pt of the interview is to expose the musician's fans to the interviewer, thus advertising the interviewer to a new audience some of whom might like him enough to come back again, and another pt of the interview is to expose the interviewer's fans to the musician, thus advertising the musician to a new audience some of whom might like him enough to come back again. Rose is paying professional attention to that second agenda, which is what musicians want+get from an interview. one of the unique attention-grabbling things about the Grateful Dead is how many fans go to 3,4,5 consecutive nights of shows. Rose's Touch Of Gray question was a 2 fer -- (1) it opens the door to the topic of repeat attendance in a way that doesn't (like some interviewers do) answering the question as he asked it, it just opened the topic for the boys to take it wherever they preferred, (2) it also plugged their "hit" song for the uninitiated who care about that sort of thing.
Ugh. I always hated these "news" stories about the dead. Acting like it was a new and underground thing for over 30 years. Trying to package what they were sayi g cant be packaged. I remember this on tv. I love the dead, and like charlie rose enough, but this was cringe worthy, at some points, as they say. Edit: I guess I hated it so much I had to watch it again. I probably would've had some kind of cosmic stroke or messed my pants too, if I had been lucky enough to stroll down the Haight that day and see them just jamming away. Sigh.
I don't believe that Phil. He did Not love that drug more than You or Bob or Bill or Mick or Trixie or MUSIC!!!!! He was a God Damn Victim of Opoid & Tobacco addiction & Sugar & food addiction with nobody controlling his blood sugars 4x a day!! I'm a RN. & deadhead since 1973 met the band in 1981 from a mutual friend. I offered my services to take care of his bloodsugars and health To dead office and to Jerry multiple times with my credentials but no response, sadly before he almost died from diabetic coma in 1986!😮❤ Don't blame him he took all the pressures of the Dead on Himself, for people's. Livelyhoods. He was a wonderful human being Just like each of you! You know he did quit many times he was trying, for God's sake! He was a Vctim of opoid addiction!!! You all are his Brother's, You love him then understand victim's of Addiction and FORGIVE HIM!!!!😮😢❤ PLEASsE🙏😭🎸🌹💀⚡🌹🌹🌹🌟🌟
It's great what they do but let's face it none of them planned for the future they all made it money and they all needed to keep going and at this point in time they don't and they have John Mayer and that's great but it's different and it's okay but it's different but Jerry Garcia never planned anything he was the real deal and he died for that but really he was the band commercialization is the rest enjoy it while you can I do
I told them that we as deadheads don’t like women on stage with them , it’s 1 thing to have other musicians but that’s all , no Donna Godchild just because her husband played with them or any other , we r there to c them ! The GratefulDead ! ❤❤❤❤
I think a strong DMT trip would've saved Jerry. The death of Brent really k*lled the spirit of Jerry. So, in order to bomb the pain away and also the heroin only DMT could've helped to get him back on track. It's the strongest force on earth.
@@nataliezementbeisser1492 I read in the book “Garcia: An American Life” about an experience the band had with DMT in the 60’s (yes it was around in the 60’s)
yeah owsley used to make dmt and they would all blast it together backstage apparently. it wasnt just the death brent though, he was too famous for any proper privacy and there was too much pressure and expectation on him, when really all he wanted was to be free and play music in a low key way.
Risking total success or complete failure... Nicely worded but we all know that failures not even a possibility for this group of guy's. Even though no one can ever copy this blueprint, much less read it, they (or they're music) will live on forever... Long after we're DEAD & GONE, Grateful Dead music will be alive & well til the end of time's... Thanks for giving me two decade's of pure unadulterated fun & good time's... I said Hey Now.....⁷¹⁴🍋's
2022 and the music still hasn’t stopped. NFA
Wait a few months.
And it NEVER will!!!❤️✌️

I love the Grateful Dead's music
Jerry's reason for allowing taping is honestly one of the most sincere things I've ever heard any celebrity say before. "Well they bought a ticket and paid for that performance, so its theres to take and listen to whenever they want if they can get a recording. We can't charge them for it twice, they already paid." Obviously that isn't exact but it's close. Thats such a refreshing pov and tbh is the way it should be. I wish that started a standard in the music industry where it was common for a fan to receive a free copy of the nights show they attended. Like a sbd download if you had proof of attendance. Lmao, sorry to ramble, that would never happen. Its a nice thought tho lol.✌
"Don't forget to pickup your Betty Board at the gate B4 U head out." Lol! 😅 We had it good but not that good. That's like a glimpse into Dead Head heaven 🏟️🌈📼
@@josevillarreal9920 lol, that would be great!!! Imagine having to hand those out! But We get soundboard access to every show. And I like Phish so I get to double down! Id say we got it about as good as a head could ask for at this present time.✌
Just convince those Dudes in 'Guns 'n' Roses'
Phish does this , or at least they were doing it, every ticket had a sbd code for there website
Addiction is a Disease
We miss you Jerry
Jimmy Herring did such a great job doing the lead guitar work.
Amen
Jimmy is great still to this day, I wish they could've picked him up for dead and co
far better than Mayer
@@elginphelps5291 i feel like johns got more emotion, but jimmy was technically proficient for sure
Neither of them came even close to doing it for me. I’m grateful you all were able to find some satisfaction there.

Blessed to catch a few shows in Florida....tooo
I've always loved this clip. Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed it.
Thanks for posting this and thanks Charlie! I missed it when it was first broadcast.
Loved this. Thank you.
That was a great piece there. Thanks for posting.
2022 and After more than 50 years of listening to the Dead ,Hardly a day goes by that I don't listening to them.
And, they successfully put a family together...Great interview
Warren Hayes was a great addition to the band. I really liked his contributions musically.
"of we hammered that puppy to death, it wouldnt have any life" bobby sure knows how to paint a picture
Jerry needed to take time off and take care of himself but he knew he was feeding families. So sad.
very needless we lost a genius
Sounds like he would have been happiest just playing JGB and stuff with Grisman.

Charlie Rose interviewing Charlie Rose on the Dead w/ some members there.
Literally never seen this before. Absolutely amazing. Oh the early 2000’s.....how I miss thee.

Hearing that truth bomb from Phil was cleansing
I like how everybody cracked up at "entrepreneurial geniuses" and "Grateful Dead business plan".
This shed some new light on something I thought I knew everything about
You have to remember this was Garcias' gig. Garcia was a brilliant businessman, musician and free thinker. Garcia took this to where it is.
A humanitarian,
JERRY GARCIA was a force to be reckoned with.
They grossed 36 mill in three months - Jerry Garcia, Good Morning America.

Catch Joe Russo's Almost Dead (JRAD) anytime you can too. They're even better, imo
This answers two questions. Mickey can sing, and Phil can play guitar.

That was a great tour : )
Wow this is so awesome. I lived my whole life in the Grateful Dead. This is awesome.
So are you!
Wimpy, seriously, THANKS A BUNCH FOR THESE!!! If you have anything else rare of them, will you PLEASE post them too? God bless!!!😃

"It would be impossible for the Grateful Dead to have a business plan." LOL! Love it!
You'll have to ask Mickey Hart about that one - you can't ask his father😮
Interesting. Jerry was so far gone he couldn't make it back. It was brilliant that they allowed people to record and share the music. It really helped their success. Everybody loved them.
That Billy thumbnail is awesome. I can only imagine the fun that crazy bass turd has had in his life.

people were taping in the 70's they got it. more people with your music equals more cocert tickets sokd nore moneyetc,more merch.
just let people be and it will come back to you i recorded over 200 concerts NEVER SOLD THEN TO ANY ONE. I BELIEVED IN KARHMA MAYBE NOT SPELING
MY GOD I love this band!! And Charlie Rose is such a great interviewer, he asks great questions and most importantly he listens, listens intently.
Perhaps if the rest of the band listened to Jerry after Brent died and geared things down to a more manageable schedule that would in turn give Jerry time to get healthy, things could have been different.
But like most things in life, there's a payroll to meet.....
Yeah it's tough to make right decisions when millions of people demand something
Keep on truckin!!
Wow, hearing Phil talk about his addiction. I never knew it was that bad for him.
"Your audience wants to hear your hit" lol
Yeah, I laughed at that one, too. I liked Weir's retort, 'well we had it in rotation'. Lol.😎
I think he was serious about it, they just didn't play it every night.
Saw this tour from the 8th row, June ‘03, Camden NJ, Jimmy Herring, Joan was smokin hot, Willie Nelson opened, joined in the first tune GDRFB
I was on that leg of the tour too! ..

I first saw the dead July 1970 at Fillmore east. It was a life changing experience!
For me it was Minneapolis 1971 then 300+ times until 1995. It was the time of my life.
June 1970 Fillmore West.
we had 'em surrounded
Same year, Feb, Filmore West.
that segment had me crying at the end and then it closes with… next: king of queens 😂😂
Of course Eddie was there on Haight to catch that street jam haha
When?
despite the name the deads life for ever and this in the whole world!
I felt like it ended in 1995 & having seen every iteration of the band since then, by now the shows feel more & more like visiting someone in the hospital on life support
Huh? It started downhill in 1973, by 1977 you could stick a fork in it. Done!
@@jg6698I can't fathom that perspective because after I got sick of 70s dead the 80s has become my favorite
The Dead will always live because the Dead will never die.
jamming at 710,...priceless
Where are we going again?
I guess Phil doesn’t quite understand addiction.
Along with a helluva lot of addicts ?
Or there would have always been a lot less addicts.
nothin better than the head..
12:06 fast Eddie 😎
Now that's being in the right spot at right time!
🥀
garcia was under intense pressure to keep touring because they had so many mouths to feed and it was a huge business..
There is a narrative that is "The Greatest story ever told"
But as Bob Dylan eloquently put with a song he never released
"Let's keep it between us"
It was always bigger than even the whole band
They created an existence a spirit that is growing ever bigger
Jerry was a person who was committed a workaholic
That same guy you work with who turns up really early, then leaves really late 100% focused and committed to the collective
Haha yea "they still talk that way"
jam on children, you can do it also🤘
Wow.
My favorite part was "up next King of Queens"
I have to admit, Seeing that did make me feel reminiscent.
deffo made me lol :D

yeah owsley used to make dmt and they would all blast it together backstage apparently. it wasnt just the death brent though, he was too famous for any proper privacy and there was too much pressure and expectation on him, when really all he wanted was to be free and play music in a low key way.
Honestly does Mickey Hart ever shut up ?!
he is a drummer he has to kick it all the time haha
Touch of Grey was such a bad song. That's why they didn't play it.
The proof is in the puddin', STILL Grateful for The Grateful Dead after all these years (1st show 1974)
Risking total success or complete failure... Nicely worded but we all know that failures not even a possibility for this group of guy's. Even though no one can ever copy this blueprint, much less read it, they (or they're music) will live on forever... Long after we're DEAD & GONE, Grateful Dead music will be alive & well til the end of time's... Thanks for giving me two decade's of pure unadulterated fun & good time's...
