Brents passing was untimely. Then Jerry, It all fell apart for me. saw Jerry at Eastcoast shows, everything from a few hundred people to full stadiums. on Broadway also. first show was Englishtown dead 75 I think. miss it now I play it all on guitar keys and more.
I saw the Dead more times than I can remember (never once after Jerry passed) but JGB Shows were always so special. Jerry always seemed more relaxed and so comfortable with the smaller band. They were nights I hold dear and at the time enjoyed so very much.
Amen, to you all - look @ Jerry's face - he is suffering- I absolutely love him to death - hope we all see him & his friends in the promise land & all are playing even with my daddy & mama - that would break my heart - I second that emotion - Amen, again
First Dead show was my 18th birthday then 2-3 years later found The JGB and was following my new favorite band because Jerry still the best on the guitar and banjo
If you feel like giving me a life time of devotion, I second that emotion. Dedicated to my dog, Chili Dog! ❤ A dog will love it's owner for its entire lifetime.
Hi Deadheads, On Thurs nite,the anniversary of Jerry's passing,I went to Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael,CA. It is Phil's new dinner/club.The music was Phil and "family" and it was incredible. I miss Jerry and the music continues. Jack
It's actually pretty easy. Just play your guitar 16 hours a day for 30+ years and you can do it too :) not down playing your observation I fully agree. I saw Merle Saunders a couple years after Jerry passed at a bar in WI, and the lead guitarist was incredible, during break me and my bud ran into the dude and offered him a joint, Exclaimed what a great guitar player he was, and he said you can do it too, just spend two years playing 16 hours a day, that is what I am doing! Got to look up who that was some day... anyway keep on keeping on...
That is a damn good point. Jerry would laugh when asked about the "new guy" and often respond..."new guy? He's been part of the band longer than most bands are together!" I sure miss them,especially JG. Have a grate day, Jack
To imagine , Jerry's dear soul had to go through this stuff far too many times losing a friend way too soon and then had to go out on stage to entertain all of us , just so we could forget about our troubles for one night . When someone in the act dies , the show must go on . They all had big shoes to fill , it's a tough act to follow . It's funny though , nobody seemed to learn anything from death , folks still "OD"ing to this day . Talent lost way too soon .
Right. For context: "On September 1, 1990, at the Shoreline Amphitheatre, the Jerry Garcia band performed a particularly poignant kind of magic. A Grateful Dead show was originally scheduled for that date but was cancelled due to the untimely death of the Dead's brilliant, passionate keyboard player, Brent Mydland, in late July. Rather than cancel the gig, the Jerry Garcia Band stepped in to deliver one of their most heartfelt performances."
I was at this show. It's 100% correct that it was scheduled to be a Dead show. The Shoreline is a bigger venue than the JGB typically played. It was fun.
@murda187ism Jerry Garcia Band 9/1/90, Shoreline Amphitheater, Set 1 - How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You), Stop That Train, Dear Prudence, I Shall Be Released, Run for the Roses, My Sisters and Brothers, Deal. Set 2- I Second That Emotion, Think, And It Stoned Me, Waiting For A Miracle, Don't Let Go, That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day), Tangled Up in Blue.
Loudest I ever heard Kahn was Ventura 1992, the night before Jerry's 50th birthday at Irvine. Even the audience recordings couldn't handle it! 1) Second That Emotion 2) He Ain't Give You None 3) Think 4) Rueben and Cherise Etc ..... Best Shining Star ever to open second set
Damn I love JGB. There is NO sadness allowed during JGB. my biggest regret in this 50 year old life is never seeing JGB live. Plenty of dead shows. sigh. Kahn looks like he weighs 98 lbs
The fabulous Gloria Jones and Jackie LaBranch. Gloria passed away last week sadly. Voice of an Angel, may she rest in peace. Just a note thats Melvin Seals. Like Merle hes got a smile that won't quit 😀
You know what Tito? This is the second or third video you've shared where your main comment in the description box is more than a bit crass. You do know that when you posted this Brent's girls were still pretty young and likely to come across your insensitive comment. It's a shame that I've got to say adios to your content. Great taste in music Sir, but you aint got an ounce of class.
@ Leon Ramsay Reggae, perhaps - reggae into rock n roll into jazz into reggae into jazz and more jazz and reggae into Motown - the combinations are endless and JERRY GARCIA plays every one of them 👏👏👏
@ckorsgaard Truth hurts. Not only was he accosting friends of mine in hotel bars while being married, he was doing speedballs constantly, and had ambulances called to his house in lafayette a few times to revive him from near death. And he was a really good musician, and an integral part of the band, they were never the same after he died, but lets not live in pretend land, eh?
They played this in Portland, lovely song ... but to know it was a cover show for the Dead due to "the shit" makes it and Jerry's smiles all the more enjoyable entertainment. He is smiling!
I can’t get enough Jerry and Melvin.

Some of the best shows of My Life absolutely
This iteration of JGB is my favorite. I mean thirty years on and it still makes me smile. Chemistry was there for sure.
This is my fav JGB line up as some others have noted. I like Jerry’s tiger guitar. I like the ladies beautiful voices. The band sounds great. 👍🏻 👍🏻
Yassss Happy Sunday Indeed Y’all! On that Bus ride, who's coming with me?!
Listening to Jerry feels
Like kisses. 💋
jerry and Melvin had amazing chemistry... very fun to watch... can't wait to see these two play together when we make it to the promised land!!
Jerome Garcia me neither brother, me neither
This is what my heaven sounds like. Add in a little Brent and it would be true paradise.
Amen, to you all - look @ Jerry's face - he is suffering- I absolutely love him to death - hope we all see him & his friends in the promise land & all are playing even with my daddy & mama - that would break my heart - I second that emotion - Amen, again
I just don't get tired of watching this.
Dave Poon They did a tribute to him at Merriweather, here in Columbia, Maryland last night! Non stop joy from 7:PM to 11:30PM!
I love Jerry's head bob. He looked truly happy.
First Dead show was my 18th birthday then 2-3 years later found The JGB and was following my new favorite band because Jerry still the best on the guitar and banjo
This is hands down the best show i have on DVD. I highly recommend it...
How could a person not adore this?
The inter-play between Melvin and Jerry is something special.
I dont understand who would put a thumbs down on this video.
Frankeinheimer123 26 people at that
people who like the non-junky version?
The color saturation is slightly off :(
@@oaxacachaka Of all the things to complain about… Just be glad the footage/audio is here and free to enjoy.
we should listen to the music and be thankful! what a true blessing!
Jerry at his best! Smilin and jamming! Thanks for the share and thank you for the music. I SECOND THAT emotion!
Musical medicine for mind, body and soul😎✌️🇺🇸
If you feel like giving me a life time of devotion, I second that emotion. Dedicated to my dog, Chili Dog! ❤

Melvin! So glad I get to hear him year after year at Jerry Jam in NH.
Still miss Jerry favorite guitarist
Love this ! Jerry was having a good time 😊
Jerry and Jackie's voices lend themselves particularly well to eachother
How Jerry does what he does without looking at the fretboard is astonishing.
@NLTDB3S
Years of playing and practicing!
@@daviddemar8749
Genius plays a good part 😅
You can be.an intermediate and do thst if that's how you approached playing
@@nyclear right - and I do - but at that level I’m saying it’s incredible

nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile
Great song by Jerry Garcia band, I second that emotion!!!!-💜💙💜💙💜💙💜!!!!-10-01-2021: Spartanburg SC,/
This is blowing my damn mind! Beautiful.
I know it does that to me every time I hear him sing..
That is a damn good point. Jerry would laugh when asked about the "new guy" and often respond..."new guy? He's been part of the band longer than most bands are together!" I sure miss them,especially JG. Have a grate day, Jack
I saw this show shoreline amphitheater Mountain View Ca.LosLobos was the warmup band and they were great too

I am glad you understood what Jerry was going through - I bet he had a lot on his mind that nobody knew..
The comment about Brent is extremely disrespectful and tasteless. That being said, thanks for uploading this.
Right. For context:

@@viralvideoguy1988 wow. and the band played on.
It’s true though…? Don’t be afraid of the truth. Not disrespectful at all tbh
@@viralvideoguy1988 .
I was at this show. It's 100% correct that it was scheduled to be a Dead show. The Shoreline is a bigger venue than the JGB typically played. It was fun.
I LOVE YOU BRENT i named my son after you! i love u jerry!
I was at this show. Seems like a hundred years ago. Amazing show under sad times...
Was a GREAT NIGHT Thank you … R I P Jerry ~
I have to say I still love this.
Me too
@@tresorngray Right on,have a grateful day.
I wish I had spent more time listening to Jerry back in the day
Jerry was having a blast you can tell
That would only break my heart.
But how sick would be to go to a concert expecting to see the Dead, then instead get a surprise JGB show....I would be stoooooooked hahah
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was a perfect show it was magnificent.
Absolutely beautiful.
This is GOLD
The shows at Shoreline we're in June of '90, Brent passed that July after shows in Chicago.
GROOVIN i love when jerry used to dig the keyboards so much!
That was awesome! Thanks for the post.
So sweet to watch Merle and Jerry sliding it back and forth. I SEXOND THAT EMOTION. MISS THEM SO...
Shirley B it’s Melvin Seals tho, but you’re right!
Its a perfect tune. Truly.
Always good to see this vid!
Absolute perfection

I wonder how Jerry was able to play this great after loosing one of his best friends. RIP Brent and Jerry.
He is suffering look at his face people...
Dope is how, unfortunately. 🤷♂️ C’est la vie
@@tresorngray 3:49 idk looks pretty happy to me. The mixture of drugs and shock can do a lot for suppressing grief.
This is so good.
that smile at 2:15 ... :,)
Nothing better than that smile right there
oh boy what a rad song and a sad song you are all singing
Jerry's Guitar always sounds like a different soda-pop to me, it's ginger ale here.
Timeless
Yes!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JERRY ! RIP !!! :-(
this is some jam
Damn I love JGB. There is NO sadness allowed during JGB. my biggest regret in this 50 year old life is never seeing JGB live. Plenty of dead shows. sigh. Kahn looks like he weighs 98 lbs
I agree. It's just a fact that doesn't diminish the music -- definitely an aspect that shouldn't be glossed over. Blunt truth.
MELODY
DAMN you know those boys went out for some BURGERS after this show
Wow.. the backup vocals are bringing just as much heat as Jerry and Merle, who are they!?
The fabulous Gloria Jones and Jackie LaBranch. Gloria passed away last week sadly. Voice of an Angel, may she rest in peace. Just a note thats Melvin Seals. Like Merle hes got a smile that won't quit 😀

Damn the vibe must have been hot on stage and thus in the crooowwwwddddd

jerry meets smokey...great stuff
Melvin seales awesome
Magical
@AliIKarimi
why do u think they are painful?
I feel so god dam goodness.
sounds great and I can't stand John Mayer your kids are losing it
Evidently the JGB had the dopest fucking set lists. Song choice reflecting capital musical taste.
Music is cross culture. Never imagined Grateful Dead doing Motown
@ Leon Ramsay
Reggae, perhaps - reggae into rock n roll into jazz into reggae into jazz and more jazz and reggae into Motown - the combinations are endless and JERRY GARCIA plays every one of them 👏👏👏
Meybe that is why Jerry seems enamored with Melvin Seals while playing...
I agree with you...

AGREED!
This track selected for our Heady-style master JGB playlist - ua-cam.com/play/PLOSKHHQKHtm7XwoEiMB8V2QWaQWydsUhS.html&si=xoT4kMTSLk0hJac3
They played this in Portland, lovely song ... but to know it was a cover show for the Dead due to "the shit" makes it and Jerry's smiles all the more enjoyable entertainment. He is smiling!
Melvin Seals B-3 playing is just the tops.
At 3;25 one of the biggest smiles
2:30 whoow ! :)
i said go get that lotion.
TFF !!
Very good...really? One of the best!
Jamming
4:07 WOW!
Peaceful Jerry...
By the things you say, you sound like you were in the damn band!
Now what did Brent eat for lunch during the 89 summer solstice?
He brought darkness... and anger... explain.
Also you couldn't tell id Keith was playing or if he was dead sitting at the piano half the time.
Damn, that description is a little brutal. Ease up there cowboy.
I don't second that emotion.
LETS GO FLYERS! AND JGB!!!! YA DIG
Wonderful. What Year was this?
Would be nice to have the bass tuned a bit louder -
