A song can not emerge in any time but its own. The time it helps create. A tune maintains its unique place in eternity, just as the specific time contains the tune. Allowing the past to sketch the outlines of the future. -R.H.

A greatful dead legend

A modern bard.

YEAH!

I’m 70 years old now. I’m from South Philly, grew up in the shadow of the Spectrum, saw the Dead and JGB over 35 times. Was at this show, it’s in a suburb just outside Philly. I cried listening to this. I lost 2 close friends to cancer just in the last 8 months. This time in The Days Between probably has me hypersensitive

There is no Grateful Dead wo Robert Hunter. Never forget, always remember. ❤⚡️

Words. There are not adequate words to convey the true importance and impact of the words of Ripple and what they mean to the soul of humans.

Thank you, Robert Hunter. ❤

Oh man where's the show, Domino ⁉️

wow

❤

Thank you, Robert, for all the joy, tears, laughter and other forms of magic you shared with us. And thank you for sharing some time with me at that picnic table years ago in Oregon. We had a good talk, and though I was in awe of your genius, you struck me as one of the most grounded humans I've ever met. 💖

I can’t say it any better. I thank Robert Hunter every day for his beautiful songs. ❤

Star ⭐️ in the sky tonite ⭐️🙏💕

Thank you Mr. Hunter. You made the World a brighter place!

Thank you so much for your beautiful words Robert ❤️

Shameful the audience left Robert naked to perform accapella.

Miss you, Hunter. ❤️

Presenter meant to say “ not an overstatement. “

Legend...

He was able to love us more than words can tell

He's better than most writers in Music City

An incredible human being

One of America’s greatest song writers

"If my words did glow"

what a beautiful soul.

RIP Robert Hunter 🏔️🕊️

Great

Kind of cool he played this on my almost birthday of my favorite year, but I had no idea who he was at that time. If I knew about the Grateful Dead sooner I definitely would have gone to see him

Hunter, some of the magic behind the curtains of our civilization. . .

THANK You

This song alone makes us realize what a treasure Garcia Hunter was.

The duo of Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia took my mind as well as my soul to places that nobody else could ever had. Beyond music, closer than intimate, life altering experiences that showed me a different side of my own being. Thank you both.

The Greatest American lyricist-Period!

I hear this in my dreams...!!! Robert Hunter is to the Grateful Dead as Bob Dylan is to the Byrds. From the Masters' mouth 💘. Love always.

I love you thanks

What a nice tribute, thank you.

Because the song doesn’t need to be spoilt by off key enthusiasts

We miss you

Imagine the songs him and jerry writing together now . Gives us all something to look forward to hearing in our next journey . Two of the best song writers ever . Thanks for all songs and memories that will last a lifetime

Mr. Hunter quotes another of my favorites, Ray Bradbury! Terrific speech and song.

10/5 my born day. almost a decade later but hey i'll take it. Miss you rider

What a beautifully crafted and fitting induction/intro speech. Hunter, I started to say was brilliant, but where his words will live forever you have to say IS brilliant. Since 1973 his words have been bouncing around in my head everyday. Thank God Robert met Jerry ...

Yesterday would have been his 80th birthday. His poetry is up there with the masters

Happy 80th Birthday Robert Hunter ❤🥰

Happy 80th Birthday Bob 🥰🎶❤❤💞✌💨💨💨🍻🎸✈🤗👥

Hunter's serene prose echoes on, even in his physical absence. The enduring optimism of “Ripple” is a welcome reminder of better days ahead. RIP RH.

You don't listen to Robert Hunter lyrics. Robert Hunter lyrics happen to you.

I feel like 200 years from now, people will still play his songs.
