When he was "on" and harmonized with Jerry or Bob, it was magic. That said, I wasn't a fan of some of his keyboard work, especially when he provided "fill in" parts. That said, boy do I miss these guys. thanks! i look forward to diving into the summer of 1979 to the summer of 1990 for the next decade or so... so many resources out there, even podcasts with 4 hour shows.... 1
The Poojer Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Don't ignore Dead & Company, they are getting stronger each tour, sure it's not anywhere close to the same, but some is better than none, except of course herpes or cancer :-) 13 hours ago, Bad Things said: Brent had one of the best gravelly, blues voices I've ever heard.

You gotta be kidding me, they are a quintessential cover band that just happen to supplement their their own music: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Grateful_Dead_cover_versions A Woody song: On of my favs...

row_33 Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 Exiled, most rock fans have zero clue what the set list was for a Dead show, they couldn’t even begin to guess the content. Nor could most country/western fans, who would be most pleased.
