      the most raw, humble man to make musical vibrations. the amount of people who miss this cat is far more than anyone dead on earth.
      and they tried to replace him or whatever with a real egotistical dude who wears fuckin headphones while performing live what a tool. Jerrys rollin in his grave no doubt.

    They tell me of a pie up in the sky
    Waiting for me when I die
    The day that you're born to when you die
    They never seem to hear even your cry
    As sure as the sun will shine
    I'm gonna get my share of what's mine
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    The officers are tryin' to keep me down
    Trying to drive me underground
    Though they think they've got the battle won
    I say, "Forgive them, Lord, they know not what they've done"
    As sure as the sun will shine
    I'm gonna get my share of what's mine
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    I'll keep on fighting for the things I want
    Though I know that when you're dead, you can't
    Rather be a free man in my grave
    Than living as a puppet or a slave
    As the sun will shine
    I'm gonna get my share of what's mine
    The harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    They tell me of a pie up in the sky
    Waiting for me when I die
    The day that you're born to when you die
    They never seem to hear even your cry
    Then the sun will shine
    I'm gonna get my share of what's mine
    The harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    The officers are tryin' to keep me down
    Trying to drive me underground
    Though they think they've got the battle won
    I say, "Forgive them, Lord, they know not what they've done"

    Harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
    And I'll keep on fighting for the things I want
    Though I know that when you're dead, you can't
    I'd rather be a free man in my grave

    When I was 16 I got into my NYE show. And waiting outside Oakland Colosseum to get into the lot, I met a uber hippie guy from south east coast, and was talking with him. At some point, he brings up that he heard Jerry Garcia doing a version of Jimmy Cliffs "Harder They Come" that totally kicked ass. Before that, I never knew that JGB didn't write "Harder They Come" themselves. I thought was a Garcia original. Anyways, he preceded to share some home-made pickles with me, out of a zip-lock baggie. They were electric, as I found out later. Mildly so, but pleasent and did the trick.
    Edit: not mild, by today's standards.

    About as good as it gets, folks. Jerry on the shuffling reggae beat with perfect tone...vocals like honey, bass man Kahn in the pocket with a cigarette burning, godchaux in a dinner jacket tickling the ivories, Donna jean swaying, and Ron tutt with the steady backbone on drumz (dude played with Elvis!). Having a bad day? Press play and repeat.

    Wow, awesome song. It makes me wish I knew something about music. The beat seems so cool to me, like it has a couple of beats inter-weaved or something. As a bicyclist it somehow how feels like the beat is in tenth gear where you peddle more slowly but the back tires are going really fast. Yup, should paid attention in music class.

      As a musician in the making, I've long been trying to understand what syncopation really means. My teacher wasn't exactly able to explain it as well (he said it's when you have broken time signatures, but I doubt it's just that). Could anybody help me out and maybe give an example?

    "The Harder They Come"
    Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
    Waiting for me when I die
    But between the day you're born and when you die
    Y'know, they never seem to hear even your cry
    So as sure as the sun will shine
    I'm gonna get my share now what is mine
    And then the harder they come, the harder they fall
    One and all
    The harder they come, harder they fall
    One and all
    And the oppressors are trying to track me down
    They're tryin' to drive me underground
    And they think that they have got the battle won
    I say, forgive them, Lord, they know not what they've done

      200% agree. Garcia may be a legend and everything, but this is not one of his best honestly. Out of respect I'm not gonna affirm he butchered it; some people really like this and that's commendable.
      But listen, Jimmy Cliff still owns this song; no one did it better
