Thank God this even exists... I was there. This is my first time hearing it in 39 years. I was a kid, I was high as a kite, and I was just having a ball with a bunch of happy people.
@@peterbetts858 it was over 30 years ago... I saw the Grateful Dead in Miami Florida. Back when Florida was cool and not a Republican dump. I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jeff Beck at the same arena.
@@ktwheels44 yes sir so u saw Jerry right up close to the end , nice . Well u sure started out good seeing this show ! i never saw a JGB OR Kahn with him , regret . i did catch Merl Saunders once on a mountain in Maine , n Melvin Seals carrying the torch ,JGB .a few times .i totally hear yur rep dump comment .Stevie Vaughn and Mr .BECK . THAT S THE Hard stuff too ! Canada .
The fact he played solo shows with John Kahn is a testament to Jerry’s greatness and loyalty. Kahn deserves much more than he’s remembered for. He was an important influence is his life and he has some amazing performances .
Well,all the other band members and Jerry's friends really looked down on John, bc they looked at him as a enabler for jerry...a great man and one hell of a bass player with that smoke always hanging out his mouth!!

joshua deaton bro thanks for putting this one up . love this pair , time was interesting , older the better . Food for my machine . IKO Iko . sound is grate too .
Lucky to have lived near Hartford. Rough voice and sloppy at times. But this is what hooked me on Jerry. What sound coming out of that guitar by one man. Improv that reminds of Jazz artists doing the same. High on H and letting the music flow.
Sound is Incredibly clear,The Bushnell has great acoustics, been around since the 1930's As a Beacon of Hope,following the Depression.❤🎉One of many Hartford Concert spots.
@halcolombo6380 no I mostly mean dead shows. But there’s nothing wrong with this show. Jerry had a shaky voice but other than that it’s solid. John kahn was Jerry’s smack buddy. So I would think Jerry’s fully doped out at jgb shows more so than dead shows. But I don’t know what I’m talking about and that’s just my opinion. I’m probly wrong
I grew up in Hartford. At the time of this performance I was 14 years old and a little inner city hoodlum. Iirc it was only a week or two after this show that I attended the last The Nutcracker Suite at the Bushnell(for me). I didn’t get into alcohol/drugs until the following June while also getting into heavy metal music. It wasn’t until 88 that I reluctantly got into the Dead and Jerry Garcia. I say “reluctantly” because I really did not want to like the Dead as many of my friends(the ones from West Hartford) were getting into them, but I borrowed several tapes from one of them so that I could make copies for myself and to really give this music a chance. Most of the tapes weren’t the greatest quality recordings, but one in particular stood out. It was the May 77 Cornel show, and what specifically converted me into a full blown Deadhead was Scarlet Begonias>Fire! Yup, that did it. I later would see Dead shows at Nassau Coliseum, and Highgate Vermont. Also saw a JGB concert at the Hartford Civic Center in November of 91… Ah, Hartford, it’s been 29 years and 1 week since I’ve left - “all the years combine, they melt into a dream”
I'm also from Hartford ,right off Park St about about a mile from West Htfd. I'm also a Metal head and saw Jerry at the civic center in maybe 94. Live in Oregon now.
@@wiseoldfool101 right on! I’ve lived all over the city at different times, but grew up mostly on Sisson Ave. the mid 80’s was spent partying in your area on Madison Ave and all along Park Street from sisson/new park to Kennedy park
@@The11eleven Lots of Hippies out here in Oregon. Actually went on a long Dead bike ride that ended with an amazing outdoor show by the river. Always love the Dead the most during the summer.
@@wiseoldfool101 I’m sure we have. And I’m pretty sure we know some of the same people, if not each other! When I had a paper route(Hartford Courant) the office where we checked in every Saturday was on Sisson right near the intersection of Park. I grew up on the corner of Sisson and Warrenton
Jerry's voices is alittle rough this performance but him and John hold court big time. The entire show is full of treats and Jerry jams out all the tunes and the show ends with a pretty incredible Bird Song.
Wow, this is a great tape! UA-cam just sent me here after I cued up the Garcia-Grisman version of "Sitting in Limbo" and what a great rx that was. This Peggy-O is fantastic! Thanks for putting it up. Those Jerry & John shows were so good, and HQ tapes are such great chances to relive them.
@@williamadamsmusic3025 he must have been doing an unfathomable amount of drugs to age like that. I kind of wish I knew exactly how much of each drug he was doing to change his appearance like that
@@johncampbell9136 I dunno. They were making a lot of money in the early 80s. $45000 a show in today’s money. I think Jerry had enough to feed his habit. But who am I.. lol
Set 1: Deep Elem Blues, Little Sadie, Peggy-O, Valerie, Run for the Roses, Simple Twist of Fate | Set 2: Rubin and Cherise, Friend of the Devil, Jack-A-Roe, Gomorrah, Bird Song
say what!?!? I have heard this set on some obscure tape years ago. It sounds even better now after a spell. like a fine wine... Jerry and John may be gone but their music gets better with time
SMOKE IS GETTING INTO MY EYES A CAT ATE AND NOW HE IS LICKING HIMSELF A POSTMAN SAID YESTERDAY THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO SEE MY PICTURES I AM AN ARTIST AND I AM ILL SO LISTENING TO YOU JERRY COMFORTS ME
I'm not gonna say Hendrix is over-rated, its impossible to call someone Number 1, but Garcia is just a better and more versatile musician with a setlist and live performance history that just can't be matched. Hendrix was just churning out studio out-takes his last year, and the Dead continued to write great lyrics, new melodies, and then merged into a jazz phase and all of Jerry's acoustic and duo things in the 80's.
Thank God this even exists... I was there. This is my first time hearing it in 39 years. I was a kid, I was high as a kite, and I was just having a ball with a bunch of happy people.

Correct. He was a soulful mf. And probably had a lot to do with the song selections
Yes bro! I wish John Kahn was celebrated more.
Well,all the other band members and Jerry's friends really looked down on John, bc they looked at him as a enabler for jerry...a great man and one hell of a bass player with that smoke always hanging out his mouth!!
It's a great dynamic the way the 2 of them play off each other.
And there Is that HERO.

35 years ago! (2019 now.... ). My first time seeing Jerry Garcia with an acoustic guitar. Very special memory for me.
Me too!

RIP JERRY 8-09-2024 💜🎶💃🕯💜🎶🙌🏽👣
Love You Everyday
Jerry never ever gives up on a solo. He keeps working it for us. Very few top players are like that.
there the only ones ,who do what they do . . ..
His bluegrass roots shine through the way he keeps the solo going. Soooo good 😊
Wow. That Peggy-O- is amazing.
Yes it is.
Sound is Incredibly clear,The Bushnell has great acoustics, been around since the 1930's As a Beacon of Hope,following the Depression.❤🎉One of many Hartford Concert spots.
Hell yeah I was there hanging off the first balcony fantastic memories 👍
I like how Jerry starts the solo of Songbird, sounds like the ending chords of Mississippi Half-Step
Garcia played some of his best shows in Hartford
So true.. I noticed Jerry always brought the heat when in CT. With the exception of Hartford 88, every show is a cooker
@halcolombo6380 no I mostly mean dead shows. But there’s nothing wrong with this show. Jerry had a shaky voice but other than that it’s solid. John kahn was Jerry’s smack buddy.

Show was great. John kills simple twist of fate.🕺🕺🤙
This is the best Garcia/Kahn version of Bird Song I have ever heard.

Right near New Park Ave.

What a deep insight "Jerry's voice is rough" we know, and we love him
The best part of this show .... I was there!
I had so much fun at their shows
Look at that magician. Great shot!
One of my most favorite Left howlin to The moon full of love and piss
thank you
GOT DANG! JERRY FOOKIN ON FIRE THAY RASPY VOICE FROM THE H..HE NEVER STOOPED

Jim I was @ this show. Good stuff $ 13.50
YEAH JERRY YOU WERE THE BEST WE ALL MISS YOU
praise be to God, thanks for posting
i was t this show. was in high school at the time.
Killer opener solid setlist ❤
Kahn takes a solo on the Stand-up Bass !!!!!!! ( simple twist-o-fate)
I was at this show too!😀Really weird how this popped up randomly on the sidebar!
Anyone ever notice how Jerry looked like he aged 20 years from 1979 to 1983
Yes, heroin, cocaine, and uncontrolled diabetes will do that to you... Oh yeah, smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol didn't help either.
@@williamadamsmusic3025 he must have been doing an unfathomable amount of drugs to age like that. I kind of wish I knew exactly how much of each drug he was doing to change his appearance like that
@@stevesick1 he was. i heard an interview that the dead needed to tour constantly to pay for the drug habits during this time.

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°• he is a rock ☆ star all day long °•°•° true magic music °•°•°
Epic!
Love the acoustic Jerr!
Remember- he was a Banjo teacher before anything ever started. Jerry was a bluegrass acoustic musician first.
@@Therecouldbehope Yeah, blue grass takes a lifetime to master and Jerr always had nothing but respect for the greats on the scene.
Yikes, I was at that show, thank you for the memories
This is the gold folks💥
Sorry man excellent sound board a+
John Kahn was The Mule...he pulled hard for Jer!
he was on J. Garcias stage also. Real Jam brothers.
God bless all the rode guys, rip Mo
84'....Speedball days...He's flying
