Philip and his bass balls. Have mercy!

For me, this is THE BEST JACK STRAW VERSION EVER!!!!!. Wonderful!!!. Greetings to all fans, Deadheads, from Xalapa, Veracruz, México.

Definitely in my top 10 Dead songs and for this I give this page a follow

IWT. Worse venue ever, however. Thank goodness they really brought it that night to make up for it.

I read that Bob was deeply touched that Jerry didn't shun him during his evangelical Christian phase. Apparently lots of old friends did.

Our cool crook Forever we adore you Live grateful thoughtful and generous just like Jerry {❤️}:=}

Glad I went

RIP Jerry 🍄🌁🌁🌁🍄 Long Liv the Dead 🍄🌹🍄

RIP Jerry 🍄🌁🌁🌁🍄. Long Liv the Dead 🍄

Out of all my shows before and after these were my favorites. I remember them like it was yesterday

This might interest you, fella way out west by the name of Garcia. Turns out, this Garcia fella has another handle, or two. Some people call him Elijah, some others call him John. And some other folks - I mean the alchemists, the ones who are never sober- they call him Elias Artista, Elijah the Artist. "Elias Artista - A Precursor of the Messiah in Natural Science" - Herbert Breger: The history of Elias artista is the history of an almost forgotten utopian concept in natural science. The advent of the modern age brought with it a widespread belief amongst physicians and chemists, particularly in Germany, that God in a not too distant future would be sending a person, capable of revealing all nature’s secrets to humanity, that person being Elias artista. His disclosures were to coincide directly with the end of this iniquitous world and the beginning of a messianic age (a golden world or the millennium). Paracelsus, Book Concerning the Tincture of Philosophers: Nothing is concealed that shall not be revealed. There are many more secrets concerning the transmutation, though they are little known, for if they are revealed to someone their fame is not immediately common. With this art, the Lord bestows the wisdom to keep it secret until the advent of Elias Artist. Then shall be revealed what has been concealed. Eirenaeus Philalethes, An Open Entrance to the Closed Palace of the King: My Book is the precursor of Elias, designed to prepare the Royal way of the Master; and would to God that by its means all men might become adepts in our Art - for then gold, the great idol of mankind, would lose its value, and we should prize it only for its scientific teaching. Virtue would be loved for its own sake. Walter Pagel, The Paracelsian Elias Artista and the Alchemical Tradition: To Paracelsus Helias represents various features of an ideal through which enlightenment and happiness will descend upon future generations and lift the veil of obscurity which still blinds him and his age. Helias is the perfect adept to come . . . Paracelsus’s Helias artista with his messianic associations and the vision of a super-chemistry coming true in a distant future ties up with a strong mediaeval tradition.

Abraxas !! ❤🎶🙏

Wildly underrated show - I had this on cassette way, way back. It must have been like 25th generation recording - terrible quality - but I cherished it. Jerry’s playing shines bright on Deal. Is it the best? I’m not to say, and he’s missing notes left and right, but man, he’s fuckin goin for it. It is my personal favorite. This was a tremendous show. Stellar night in RI.

My fav

Can't tell you how many hundreds of times ive listened to this version.. Garcia was a fucking genius man

The reason they were better in Feb of 1980 was because they had Johnny de Fonseca on drums. Enrico didn’t have anything on Johnny, RIP. That band was untouchable - and often times it’s the drummer who takes a good band and makes them great

They fucking ripped this!

My very first rock concert! I wish I could go back in time and see it again.

Love the banter, reviews and music

My first show, and best, by far!!

Well done! Fantatstic shows being dicussed here. Keep em coming!!! Thanks

Ned Lagin did their Seastones thing, providing the crowd with a bit of interstitial “electronic cybernetic biomusic.” Whatever. I thought about doing a little research on Seastones, but it’s just not that interesting - it’s like Space without Jerry performed by music theory eggheads. Phil and Ned released a studio album with some of that material in 1975. I don’t recommend it

One of my top ten favorite Dead Shows in my favorite year 🤘🏼💀☕️☔️☮️💜🦄 👩‍🎤 Originally canceled on a count of rain despite the neither Rain or Shine ☔️and like today.. was on a Tuesday 😃👍🏼 really digging this Perfect listen 🎧 while stuck riding out hurricane Debby Thank You guys awesome podcast Happy Days Between 2024

Love the enthusiasm and deep knowledge - great, funny stuff - enthusiasm is contagious. I’ll be getting up tomorrow and RIPPING this stuff on my car stereo and headphones

Wow What a show. Was this ever on an official release? How have I missed this show for decades? Thanks for this one NFA✌️

I love the Dead, but Dylan and Mescaline were an equal influence on my life at this time so as good as this is Dylan's version has this one If you haven't listened to the concert Dylan and the Dead especially Knocking on Heaven's Door, well worth it

Is that Ozzie Ahlers on keyboards?

love

The love of my life until I die to b with him ! ❤️🐇🐰😘😍🥰🕊️🪽😔☠️💀⚡️🐉🐦‍🔥Bunny will love him until I can b with him !

Dude it's really not fair to anyone tribute ban or otherwise, to even halfway replicate how freaking good this is omg. I'm not sure if they even could have omgosh y'all Weeeew HOOOO!

my favorite rendition of this song

Happy Heavenly Birthday Jerry Garcia🥳🎂💔

nice work i have just listened to Barcvelona i saw them in Lewiston Maine this year 11/29/81 on now I have nearly every show on an I book Saw them from 79 on 84 was a wild year Auguta 10/11/12 🦉🦉♥♥

Should have called it protofire

I have pretty much all Garcia recordings commercial and otherwise that circulate. This Oswego gig has some of his best jams of all time. A cold snowy night in February. Check out the Money Honey and After MId>El Rigby>After Mid madness. Bonkers. 1980 was a monster for JGB.

Great episode Howard. Still miss Jerry everyday. NFA✌️

Happy Birthday, Jerry! And thank you for all these, Howard. MAGA

Happy Birthday 🎁 Jerry 🖖🏼😋🎧 Thank You Howard season two episode 28! Love these podcasts 👍🏼😁🌈🔥🎶

(Where's the set list?) Happy 82nd Birthday Jerry! RIP.

Nice. Love these. Keep em coming. Also what show is the opening intro song from? Spanish jam

SMH...Just Exactly Perfect...😎👍⚡💯

Jerry has a birthday tomorrow kids. Big day for me. My wife's birthday as well. Been divorced 30 years and we still love each other. Ain't that some amazing shit

4/28/91 Vegas, that Birdsong w/Santana is next level..

Viva Santana!❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🥃🚬

There's music... there's good music... there's good live music... And then thanks to God above, there WAS the Grateful Dead 👍. And of course God takes the good. Why would he take less than that?? 🤔😊😂

The Boy and the Bubble I've heard by them was pretty rough.

I always thought walking along in the mission was about walking through one of the Spanish missions built by the church, coupled with the Holy Ghost and The Virgin Mother and the mission bells at midnite.

Tops Let it Rock

Got on the bus in 1980, my first Dead show was three weeks after this what a funky time to get turned on. Really was drawn by the keyboardist sounds from then

Never heard this, final prime Dead version of HTH . Thought I’d heard em all. Thanks for sharing.
