  • "A standout ethereal ballad from the Grateful Dead's ambitious 1975 studio album Blues For Allah, Crazy Fingers was played a less than a dozen times 1975-1976, and was then seemingly shelved for good. However, in 1982, the Dead brought it back into the live repertoire, where it remained and was played every year 1982-1995, with the exception of 1984. This is a rare first-set rendition." - David Lemieux

    Will you come with me? Won't you come with me? There's no better place to take a long strange trip with the Grateful Dead than right here. We've got music from every single studio album and a bevy of live albums, to boot. There are celebrated live performances from the 70s and 80s and official videos with more skeletons than you can shake your bones at, an exclusive seaside series on what's to come from the band's rich catalog and details on meet-ups all across the promised land. If it's community you’re after, try your hand at our yearly DEAD COVERS PROJECT competition and connect with fellow Dead Heads around the world. Heck, keep your eyes peeled you might even catch a glimpse of Pigpen on keys, Jerry in a GROOVE, Bobby tellin' tales, Mickey talkin' space, Phil and friends, Bill on the beach, or anyone from our extended family.
    It's all happenin' right here. Subscribe and you won't miss a thing.

      Yeah, but you had too much on your plate. Too many people relying on you should’ve enjoyed your older years but you died too soon. Trying to take care of everybody to pay everybody. Make sure everybody was fed. That’s Jerry Garcia. All he wanted to do is play that was it he didn’t want to be an idol didn’t want to be anything but a musician

    Mydland made this band what it was between 1979 and 1990. The high harmonies and the melodic tension between Lesh, Garcia and Mydland. It was and still is unmatched.

      @Julie Goulart that's so awesome. Sumner '89 I turned 16 and that was the first year I traveled outside of California to see the Dead without my parents. Caught the majority of shows they played that year while managing to not drop out or get kicked out of high school 🤣. Hampton Coliseum and the Meadowlands that fall were mind blowing. Was such a magical time.

    Love the reggae vibe. Jerry's mellifluous voice, sounding like honey 🍯, playing the guitar 🎸, like a a psychedelic spider, slipping and sliding up and down the fret board, with crazy fingers 🍄🌹🍄🌍🍄🧬🍄🔥🍄🐇🍄🌁🌁🌁🍄

      I was fortunate to right up front, between Jerry & Bob. It was brutally hot indeed, but a very unexpected FOTD to open set 2 seemed to cool everyone off (or maybe it was because the sun went down? Nah, it was Jerry).

    This whole show was at Christopher Hazard's, as usual the sweetest visual upgrade, this one seems like a clip of that. Lemioux and the management should collaborate & bring out the catalogue.
