Phil was trained classically and with a jazz background. No one plays bass like Phil. He started on violin and trumpet. He studied avant garde and free form music and jazz. He STARTED playing the bass when he joined the Grateful Dead.

I spoke with a classically trained professor who asked us to review a live music show. He was against anyone in the class doing a review of a rock concert as he had no taste for the genre. I was seeing Phil in concert at the Beacon and knew that was going to be a performance worth reviewing. I brought to him a copy of a Lesh show and he was blown away. He was excited to see my review of the show at the Beacon. He became a Head.

Another interesting fact is the grateful dead would play at the acid tests, which were parties in the mid 60s in San Francisco , when LSD was not yet illegal, and they would be tripping and playing, and they learned through that heightened state to listen to the other instruments, and to jam and make it all work. Much of their creativity and ability to have their music flow and morph came from those experiences.

Two thoughts. One, The Dead have a line in a song that encapsulates what they were about, ‘The music plays the band’. Along with pulling from bluegrass, country, rock, psychedelia, soul, funk etc etc, and components of jazz collective improvisation all that music dictating what the band shall play makes for an eclectic, totally original musical sound. Also, don’t remember if it was Miles Davis or some other jazz great said, when in doubt, whenever lost, want to know what chords being played etc etc, listen to the bass player🙏🙏. Lot of other great live tracks on that album, Tennessee Jed, Ramble On Rose, Brown Eyed Woman. That’s one of their finest albums 👍🙏🙏

Ok, you two "reverse Deadheads" as someone who saw them 70 times over 25 years, I can say this is my favorite live album by them. Also, members of the band like to say that when the band plays live it's total anarchy on stage and they each had to listen to ALL of them because any of them could move the play in a different direction. And from your reverse Deadhead perspective, you might listen to the studio recording of this one because it's quite interesting. In the middle of the song, they move from electric to acoustic in such a totally smooth way that you almost missed that it happened. Thanks for posting this.

Bluegrass on LSD, one of the many sub-genres the Dead explored with authority. Your comments about the role of the bass in music like this is spot on! Ironically though, Phil Lesh has been one of the least “traditional” bassists in the history of rock music. This song is a perfect example. He plays the expected genre defining 1 to 5 bass patterns to set the tone for a country feel…but as the jams unwind he leaves that behind, even straying into near dissonant territory, before coming back to earth with the band. Musically, the Dead had no leaders, beyond which of them sang lead on any given song. They tried anything/everything!

I saw my first Grateful Dead concert on 6/18/83. I knew nothing about them, but my brother had an extra ticket, so I went with him. It changed my life. When I got home, the first thing I did was but the Europe ‘72 album. When I dropped the needle on side 1, song 1, and heard Phil Lesh laying down the opening notes of Cumberland Blues I could NOT STOP SMILING! The album has some of their best tracks. Here is something that I recently found out this album. Although it was recorded live during that tour, almost every song was overdubbed with additional vocals and instrumentation added, including having Merle Saunders add keyboards to some tracks. About the only songs that weren’t overdubbed were Pigpen’s songs because by the time they got home from the tour, he was too sick to do much other than try to recover, which unfortunately he wasn’t able to. This is my #1 desert island album. ✌️☮️

All 3 are also extremely heralded guitarists who are/were missing fingers due to some pretty grizzly injuries. Jerry's (chopped off while holding a log for someone splitting wood) was on his picking hand, but Tony (accident in a sheet metal factory) and Reinhardt (badly burned in a fire) had injuries on the hand they hold the strings with. Iommi had to make "fingertips" out of bottles he melted and leather to grip the strings. And, of course, Django came up with his own unique two-finger fretting style that inspired both of them.

A great catch guys, to realize that in many ways Phil's bass playing is what leads the band. That's not always the case with other bands to the same extent. Another thing you should pay attention to or notice in future reactions with the Grateful Dead & with The Allman Brothers is how much the overall sonic experience is widened and made flexible by having two drummers rather than one. It allows for so many more layers & polyrhythms that single drummer bands just don't have access to. :)

Just like how you can turn a bluegrass sounding guitar melody and chord progression and make it way more rock and metal if the BASS plays arpeggios and sixteenth note melodic lines and doesn't hang around traditional motific elements of bluegrass.

No great need to react to another version of this one. Cumberland Blues will sound just about the same, if it is from the same era. The solos will vary. Some versions are hotter than others. But the Dead were trying to be a bit more consistent/tight/precise during their early 70s psychedelic country cowboy era. Still lots of room for experimentation and songs that were vehicles for deep outer space exploration, but they were really focused on their craft with these country tunes. I would suggest heading towards the magic of the mid-70s Dead next, since you guys have touched on the disco/funk late 70s and the country-tinged early 70s. Garcia and his lyricist Robert Hunter have some seriously mystical shit from the mid-70s the REALLY doesn’t sound like anything else. I would suggest listening to a prime version of Terrapin Station. Here’s a good version from Englishtown 1977, a minster of a show that the Dead headlined that had over 100,000 people in attendance. music.kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3WsiINpn9Npq68&si=fCN3dXnaFm4cZUBg

A Suggestion - The Dark Star chronicles. "Dark Star" is one of the Dead's musical highlights; a deceptively simple 2-verse song, which became the loose framework for many of the Dead's greatest explorations. I would suggest that you start with the original studio version (a mere 3 minutes long), before moving on to the Live/Dead version (17+minutes of interstellar exploration). Those were the two initial versions released, and are possibly the nearest to the initial idea. Then, I'd suggest opening up to the viewers which versions to go for:- polls to select years, etc...
