Grateful Dead - Bertha (Veneta, OR 8/27/72) (Tie-Dye Edition)

[@leegoldstein3927]

Top 5 Bertha all time IMHO

[@adamjoffe9521]

It is IMPOSSIBLE to be in a bad mood when listening to and watching this. And if you are you won't be there for long. It's just IMPOSSIBLE. So much has changed with the world and really not for the better in my humble opinion. Although, one thing stands true. The Grateful Dead gave the world something very special. For those who understand no explanation is needed and for those who don't no explanation will do. Forever Grateful. Peace.

I LOVE how you can really hear the enthusiasm in his vocals here.. Jesus Christ I love that man...

[@robertthompson3941]

He may NOT be “dead” neither!😂

[@bazjackson2935]

Dude, Skulls & Roses version is WAY better!

[@bazjackson2935]

There's a very good chance! 😜

[@brandonshafer1220]

Baz this is def better than skull n roses

[@Terripan1]

My 1st Grateful Dead show was May 1977. Terrapin Station Hartford Ct show what a great year!!

[@M_Lev]

About as fast a guitar solo you could find for Bertha. Love it.

[@CryptoCopilots]

Amazing love this recording of Bertha ❤

[@Karmakatt6]

Jerry coming outta the gate with such enthusiasm!! Awesome voice and as everyone mentioned his almost 'tap' like solo.

[@MZmannyz]

I miss those days. The best tiimes of my life.

[@quartzimaging]

Yikes!! These kaleidoscopic tie dyes are a trip! Nice work!

[@beadangel5]

I live in Veneta, Or and it's beautiful here.

[@Big_Smoke7]

Been there a few times for the Oregon Country Fairs. Always fun there, especially when Phil used to play there

[@47allen]

Sweeeet! This is SO Fine. ...and, it reminds me of the 60s at the Fillmore. Thanks!

[@inst1g8t0r]

Sounds great, looked great, it was great!

[@leoschmeo]

Splendid!

[@LaMoine62]

Love this video. Music and Graphics are great.

[@bobot1981]

Wonderful! Thanks for that!

[@CarolBronson]

Love this, takes me back to the Fox in St. Louis MO. Over 40 yrs ago. Where did the time go "What a long strange trip it's been"

[@ethanlavereau]

Fantastic. Fun movie.

[@drjmole63]

Was that really Jerry's guitar solo at 3:30? Wow...he was taking BIG chances then. Inspiring to hear music that isn't so extremely buffed and polished and veneered to all extinction of actual FEELING. Remember when music lifted you up like this!?!?!

[@bencande5172]

i said the same thing.

[@johnr8820]

Jeff Moehlenbruck this seems to be during his transition from more bluesy approach to a more jazzy approach...really cool

[@Karmakatt6]

You can hear he's really driving his vocals and they're just as stellar as his solos here 😉 correction, some of the greatest Jer vocals I've heard in a while 💃 💀 ❤

[@bigbillmontgomeryjr2346]

No that was tony iommi

[@moniw8]

Sweeeeeeet!!!! Best thing I've seen in ages ;) Sounding just a sweet, I might add - Peace out everyone!

[@Pontooners]

[@MC2HC]

this is sweetiepie it was my birthday show and im still on tour just using my friends pc so it comes up under his name.............see yall in chicago

[@BobTraweek]

I wonder...were these the same tie dyes that were on the speakers at Bolder? That was way back during the Europe 72 tour. There was an intermission, during which two refrigerator sized cardboard boxes were hauled out on stage and five finger lids rained down on the lucky crowd, until there was no more in the boxes. I know where that came from...hahaha

[@quartzimaging]

"five finger lids" Ha! Betcha lots of kids out there have no idea what that means!

[@jacksprat3009]

@@quartzimaging - those were the daze. Breaking up chrome bricks making 3 finger lids for $20 leaving just enough for all of us to have on of 'em. Then we go out find friends, get in a circle, light up one of ours, pass it around, toke on one of theirs and rap our trips.

@@luigi85olmedo Keith Godchaux was on keyboards if I remember correctly and Donna G did some harmony vocals.

[@ImpalerWins69]

I had a hard run, running from your window. I was all night running, running, running, I wonder if you care? I had a run in, run around and a run down, run around the corner, Lord I run smack into a tree.
