@@LessThanFaceProductions1 This may be better than Daniel Lanois' version, and I didn't think anything could be. About 18 months later, Jerry saw the flaming swords over there east of Eden.
I was there also, excellent show. I had seen many Dead shows but that was my first and only Jgb show. If I remember correctly the whole floor was general admission, those where are the days!
Jerry's guitar was to me as crystal drops of liquid sunshine through a rainbow on a rainy day. This was blessedly true for the 26 years I was able to see him play live, as well as the other 32 I've had the privilege of listening to recordings such as this. Thank you.
Garcia’s love of Dylan’s work would naturally have led him to Daniel Lanois. Lanois produced Oh Mercy and all of the sudden Bob had his mojo back. This song was the most modern song I ever heard Jerry cover, since it was no more than 3-4 years old when this was done. Jerry seems to love the song as we all do, and then finds a space for him to add his magic. The fact that Jerry could dig a great songwriter is proof of his true greatness. Him covering Dylan always reinvented the song for me. This he finds a beautiful space over the top as he always always did. Like Blues for the Rainforest he just found magic when he was moved.
I was lucky to be in attendance this night and what a show it was! Portland was so laid back this night and it was simply pure joy for us Jerry heads. Getting off Dead tour to go to " church" with Jerry were some of my most cherished memories of his music. This tour has often been over looked but man are there so many gems. Jerry had absolute freedom in this band and this song, one of may favorites, in particular I think best represents that. Happy trails!
There are many excellent versions of this song, by superb artists, including Bobbie, Phil, Larry C and Teresa W from 2018, but it's awfully hard to do any better than Jerome John Garcia, even as impaired as he may have been. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, oh deep water Black and cold like the night I stand with arms wide open I've run a twisted line I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker I could not see for the fog in my eyes I could not feel for the fear in my life And from across the great divide In the distance I saw a light Jean Baptiste's walking to me with the Maker My body is bent and broken By long and dangerous sleep I can't work the fields of Abraham And turn my head away I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker Brother John, have you seen the homeless daughters Standing there with broken wings I have seen the flaming swords There over east of Eden Burning in the eyes of the Maker Burning in the eyes of the Maker Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Awesome i was here in attendance the bolt hes playing lit up whole place!!!!! Just awsome love his tone an style such an honor to see him perform solo!!!!
No one else takes you to the special places Jerry could with that guitar. It was his own magical corner of this universe where that much beauty awaited and shined through his strings into this world
I attended four JGB shows. Two were atop Squaw Valley Ski Resort, less than a week after I moved from LA to Tahoe City I didn't have a ticket for the second day, so I hiked up the back of the mountain (oh, I should add, it was s it was Summer..) When I made it to the top, I traversed across a ski run on a path that led straight into a waiting security guard. I gave him the price of a non-scalped ticket, and he let me through, right around the time Booker T. and the MG's were jamming on the stage.) Who else played that weekend??? The Neville Brothers, Jimmy Cliff, Bela Fleck, David Grisman, and Jerry playing, with what can be described as 'youthful vigor.' It was fun. Jerry said he preferred playing with this band then the high pressure Dead shows where everyone became a critic, and the cool kids had soundboard hookup, and warned the fans outside the taping section not to scream, clap or sing along. It was 70 and sunny. Lake Tahoe, and it's surrounding peaks was the backdrop.The night ended with smiling, 'grateful' fans wandering down a pitch black dark mountain trail, many still tripping, with the true freaks speeding by on their mountain bikes.Here's the cool thing.I don't recall Jerry ever forgetting a line whilst playing with this band. It's also kinda spiritual, with Jerry singing with gospel trained background singers. Oh,the third Jerry show was at Cal Expo in Sacramento. The seats weren't assigned (if there were even seats in this real life fairground). Somehow I got front row. Finally I could dance along at a show and have a valid , non-psychotic reason to say to myself, "Jerry can really see me!" Which is way different than "knowing" Jerry's playing along with my boogie in the upper deck of the other end zone The final JGB show was a Halloween following his second near fatal diabetic coma.I recall he had to relearn how to play guitar. I was concerned. He was healthier and more energetic and "with it", It was special..JGB's songs showed his range, from the early days in a jug band, then blues, then weirdness and scary terrapins in Space, and back to Marvin Gaye, and a ridiculously lengthy Dylan mini-novel like "Simple Twist of Fate." The best part..every song was a 'Jerry tune!' No cowboy medleys! (Sorry, Bobby).
The last time i saw Jerry Garcia play live was the JGB show in Devore, California. Jerry's voice here is definitely tired; nonetheless it is indeed another beautiful rendition of a song so appropriate thematically to the struggles he (and many ) have faced. His subdued approach accents the soulful backing vocals.
This was a good noodle, but Jerry was really high this show. I knew the man, and when he was slumped over and studying the fret board, he wasn't 100 %. Still love this song and performance. He was giving his all as usual. There's another video of JGB doing The Maker on UA-cam that is better than this. I'll find it and post the link.
@@wakeoftheflood2 I was a junkie. I stayed up all night and created great art with lots of . manic energy.....So, are you speaking from experience, too!?
Wow, where'd this come from? Did you shoot it? I love your stuff - some of the best audience video on the internet. Did I read you use a Sony ECM-908 into a separate recorder? Maybe that was someone else...I use that mic, the one that mounts on a camcorder. It's a great mic. I am amazed at all the Dead video that's coming out, before mini-DV and small camcorders. A lot of people sync the audio with soundboards or audience audio...but if this was a VHS camcorder (quality is too good for hi8 I think), some of those internal mics were pretty good...Sorry to go on about technical stuff, bottom line: this is an extraordinary capture of one of my fave JGB tunes. I saw a great version at the Warfield right around this time, but I've never heard a recording of it, much less seen a video..
btragal I did indeed. This was shot with a Panasonic 3240 C-mount single tube video camera with a Tokina 100-300mm lense. The original audio was Sennheiser ME80s. The recording deck was a JVC S20U hifi stereo portable VHS. The audio was stripped at Less Than Face Productions and replaced by a recording FOB using Schoeps MK4s. Best regards from Less Than Face Productions.
Dloomis494 Thanks! It's coming into focus now, how much work was involved, getting in the equipment (camera and recorder), and producing such fine quality stuff for us to enjoy on YT two decades later. I was always partial to Nak 700's. Didn't record back then myself, but friends did and I always loved the highs (I'm a "trebel rebel"). It's a shame what happened to Nak, they made such great stuff - I had 580 & 582 decks. Awesome job :^}
+btragal A lot of work, but worth it. There was nothing, and I mean nothing more fun than going back to our hotel room to WATCH the show(s). Unless its watching the shows NOW. Best regards from all at Less Than Face Productions.
@@robertcornell7237 thanks, i have only found 3 songs or so from this on youtube. I have the whole audio.... just would love to see more vid. but it's all good anyhow anywhere :)
Can anyone help me out? Ive been looking for a version of the maker that I found online about 10 years back. It was on some sampler. If anyone out there has any idea of what im talking about or knows the show I'd be ever so grateful! The solo is one of those chills to tears to elation kinda moments..... much love fam! (~);}

R.I.P. JERRY. You are now in the 'hands of the Maker'. 💜
Appreciative opps
Walking through the hall at that show was the first time i felt God.
ha! glad you found this video Brian!

@@ty9884 It's a special version for me as well!
@@LessThanFaceProductions1 ❤
I was there also, excellent show. I had seen many Dead shows but that was my first and only Jgb show. If I remember correctly the whole floor was general admission, those where are the days!
Every song Jerry played he made his own. Never has there been a guitar player who conveyed such emotion.
Ditto. It's just words and chords on paper. It takes a genius artist to make it shine.
tell it brother
Jerry's guitar was to me as crystal drops of liquid sunshine through a rainbow on a rainy day. This was blessedly true for the 26 years I was able to see him play live, as well as the other 32 I've had the privilege of listening to recordings such as this. Thank you.
I'm so glad to be a friend in the eyes of THE☝️Maker!! And Jerry is a friend in my ❤️ heart
I was there. Such a magical experience.
In the eyes of our maker. Rest there. U are missed , Jerry🙏🙏🙌🏻🙌🏻💖🎸🎸🎸🙏
Garcia captured every thing we always wanted to say, think or do. Love him and his music!

This song was written by Daniel Lanois.
"Don't worry about playing a lot of notes. Just find the pretty one." - Miles Davis
Sums up most of the Garcia work I love the most, including here.

If you took that much time to type out those feels you got my respect. Stay golden!

My my old friend ...truly amazing.
Great version. Miss this man so much.
My 22nd bday... And last of 5 JGB shows on this tour. I miss going to church...
Oh, oh deep water
Black and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open
I've run a twisted line
I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker
I could not see for the fog in my eyes
I could not feel for the fear in my life
And from across the great divide
In the distance I saw a light
Jean Baptiste's walking to me with the Maker
My body is bent and broken
By long and dangerous sleep
I can't work the fields of Abraham
And turn my head away
I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker
Brother John, have you seen the homeless daughters
Standing there with broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
There over east of Eden
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
✨❤️✨🔥🔥🔥✨💙✨
Yup,real,mature music.id love to hear it in church,but if you saw Jerry, you were in church.
This was an amazing find~ just when I thought I had heard all from this genius- this. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Same!! I’ve never heard this before, even when I saw the name I thought The Maker? What’s that? Ahhh just more to love ❤
Jerry truly was the best. Love seeing him play on lightning bolt. The feeling is there.
Shockingly contemporary offering from Jerry
Something special, magical to say the least.
Crying tonight watching for many times over, the master even in his decline.
Dont be sad about the decline. Be glad that Jerry was here, with us!
Yes be happy he was here. But yes he looks and sounds strung out. ☹ Made me tear up.
He looks so old 🥺🥺🥺⚡️⚡️⚡️❤️❤️❤️⚡️⚡️⚡️💙💙💙 I love him !!!

Wow! Thank you for sharing. That was special.
Being Sober for 6 yrs makes me very appropriatative of this song.Capture/ Embrace each moment you've been Given by The Maker.
Daniel Lanois wrote this . I never knew Jerry knew it , left alone performed it with his band .
I love Jerry
