I was born in 74. When I was 11 I was watching the movie Mask with Cher. At the end when she finds Rocky dead in bed in the am Ripple by The Grateful Dead came on the radio. It struck such a chord w me my mom showed me at the end of the film where the soundtrack is listed. "Oh the Grateful Dead"she says. "Ur Uncle is into them" he lent me an LP and I was on the bus as they say. Sadly Me and My Uncle never got to see Jerry and the boys 2gther. We were supposed to but the day they came to Boston he had a massive heart attack and died the day they left. My mom said you still have to go see the Dead with Chris and a tear rolled down his eye. He passed the next day. Again welcome to the family!

[@submandave1125]

"Me and My Uncle" - I see what you did there. Caught Dead & Co in Cincinnati on the recent "final" tour and personal highlights included this song along with a burning China Cat/I Know You Rider.

[@bobschenkel7921]

"Finniculi Finnicula" was a famous "tuning song" for the boys, and a favorite of Jerry's. Usually meant it was going to be a great concert. Alternate name for the band was "The Just Exactly Perfect Brothers", according to Bob Weir. Help>Slip>Franklin's was a fan favorite, for OBVIOUS reasons. Welcome to The Phil Zone, named for Bassist Phil Lesh.

It was often used to get Bobby in gear as he would take so long to get his equipment straightened out.

So my friends dragged me to a dead show in 1988 I was aware of the Dead and liked a few songs but wasn’t my thing, welp almost 4 decades later Ive seen over 50 Grateful Dead Show and hundreds of post Jerry incarnations. The band changed my life and couldn’t imagine what my life would’ve been like had I not gone now I take my little one and we dance and sing

[@Jason5000]

Yeah I was nothing near a Dead fan.... but 30 years later and I really can't express how much it changed my musical taste across the board

[@pembrokejones3969]

The Dead are a big part of the soundtrack of my life. So lucky.

[@tommathews3964]

I was lucky enough to make 3 of these Spring shows in 77 and consider it one of the absolute best periods for the band. Luckily, there are many of these full shows available now on YT. I find myself deep in the 77 stuff quite often......Tuscaloosa, Boston, Portland, Buffalo, Cornell, and on and on. You clearly enjoy the jams and THAT opens the doors for The Dead's music, to me.

[@robertberry5175]

my first year. Saw 1 show, by accident. was there as my pops was getting music he left from a concert he was part of a few days before. Wasn't into the Dead, then - more of a beatles/led zeppelin fan. then, Apocalypse Now came out, and I was wondering who did that great background music. That was when I became a head.

[@dwall45033]

Try Pembroke Pines 5/22/77. Amazing LL/SUPP. In my opinion the best one they ever played! Completely agree about 77. The whole year of 77 has just simply amazing moments show after show!

Great choice. When John Mayer was learning Dead songs for Dead and Company he said there are no rules in Slipknot. I love that quote because you never know what your going to get during that song except goosebumps.

Took me 155 shows to see my first Franklins Tower! Thanks for posting this Patrol!

[@bobschenkel7921]

Hey Nordy, How ya doing bro. Saw a couple of Help>Slip>Franklin's back in the day, they were always awesome.

[@eclecticNhectic]

That's a Long run, brother. I was lucky to get it night 2 at MSG 83. My first show was the St. Stephen breakout (which I didn't fully appreciate at the time) and H/S/F was set 2 opener the second night. It broke out as I skipped down from upper halls searching for that sound. Struck out but by the time I reached our seats on the floor, I was on the bus! ☮

[@danamcalister]

Yeah the first couple times I saw them do franklins tower was late 80’s when they were doing feel like a stranger>franklins tower and I think Dominguez hills was the first time I saw help on the way>Slipknot!>franklins tower and was so stoked I finally got to see it in person. But now I miss the feel like a stranger> franklins hahahaha grass is always greener but this medley is the stronger one for sure.

[@seanwallace6404]

It makes me happy to see people still discovering and loving the Grateful Dead 😎 They were amazing together. Truly greater than the sum of their parts. Now try jumping ahead to the same sequence of songs from the 1990 spring tour. They were on fire, playing better than ever. Thanks, man.

[@douglasennis7291]

Don't forget Bobby... his rhythm playing knits it all together 🤟🏻😎💯🔥

[@2ChukBuk]

1977 was quite the year for the Dead, esp. the Spring run...I was at the 10/1/77 show in Portland OR sitting directly behind the soundboard and it was magnificent. Eyes of the World is astonishing. The 10/1 and 10/2/77 shows are now available on Dave's Picks. Highly recommended.

[@johnschall7855]

8.13.75 From the Great American Music Hall they brought this to the world for the first live performance of the whole album.

[@juniorthe3rdjuniorthe3rd]

The day I was born. When I recognize that made me really really happy. I got to see the dead a lot in the 90s. I know that wasn’t considered their best time but I saw what I considered some gems. There were still great songs and I saw the last dark star ever. I know it wasn’t as long as some dark stars but it was still powerful. They change the way I played music. This band will always be my favorite band. I think I’ll be shocked if anything ever comes out that replaces it and I love a lot of music. I’m not saying keep this you’re one and only thing but they’re an amazing band. I love seeing people get turned onto it.⚡️⚡️🌹

Help On the Way and the transition piece known as Milking the Turkey/Harder than Dirt created a momentum and energy that flowed and reached fevered pitch and was perfectlythe energy and drive behind Franklin's Tower. A jaw dropping awe inspiring experience live....unlike any other band ever

[@quartzimaging]

Funiculi Funicula appears because there a delay for technical difficulties. Maybe someone had a broken string or a blown amp. This was Jerry's way of having a little fun instead of just waiting around in silence. And, btw, this particular rendition of Help/Slip/Frank is extraordinary because it is arguably the most energetic, darkest, bad-ass, version they ever performed. Garcia in particular is absolutely locked in and surfing the outer spheres.

[@Bear78420]

From that Live Dead album you did dark star, the eleven and turn on your lovelight are must hear Dead songs too ☺️ These 3 songs were a common medley the Dead played. Some songs of theirs always went together. Fans call this Help/Slip/Frank. Other common dead medleys Scarlet begonias/fire on the mountain Lost sailor/saint of circumstance Chinacat sunflower/I know you rider Cryptical envelopment/the other ones/drums/Cryptical envelopment Etc. The Dead did a lot of multi song medleys ☺️

[@ChicoEscuela]

My recommendation for Lost Sailor > St of Circumstance is from Frost Amphitheater 1982. Holds up, Bobby dialed in, band in flow.

[@cosmonaut9942]

I went to this show at Winterland. They did a run in March and June at Winterland, my favorite venue to see the Dead. 1972 and '77 were standout years for me and I saw a lot of shows in '70s. Unfortunately, late '77 is when Garcia started dabbling in heroine and we all know how that turned out.

[@parttime9070]

I went too one of these shows at Winterland can't remember the month or day but did make it one of them...

Great choice to react to. This particular version stands very high on my list of best things the band ever played and I’ve heard a lot.

[@stephentmarksberry4484]

Phil Lesh always had Jerry knew that Phil was in to writing into classical music and he was a trumpet player. On hearing what Jerry was into he asked to play in the band A true genius like the other members realized that you could take their songs on the road. Jerry told him showed him the basics and he came up with his style of playing. I knew the band and some of the family.LSD helped on many levels. I met Bear the LSD god The two drummers at one point tied their arms together and played like that the Dead encouraged themselves to see how far they could take the music. I sold Beers goods and the money went to Bears masterpiece The Wall Of Sound. Glad your listening, ⚡️🎸⚡️🖖🏽⚡️

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

Man these guys were really out there

[@chrisstackpole8389]

Welcome to the family!

[@StarDarkAshes]

Check out the version of this on Without a Net. This is a relatively early version of this song/songs and obviously it’s great but I definitely prefer the later versions when Brent was with them. The songs develop out nicely after they have played them for a long long time and there are new aspects and Jerry has the whole guitar MIDI thing. The recording is so good and you’d be hard pressed to find any dull moments. The playing absolutely stellar. They are on 🔥 fire. Anything on that album is epic.

[@danamcalister]

That one is stellar and I listen to it at work everyday, but this one is so much more energetic and has a faster tempo. I’m not going to say which one is better but only because I can’t, they are different but incredible, both!!!!!

[@chrismazzatti8145]

If you're listening to Grateful Dead know Jerry Garcia. He is the lead Guitar and a founder of the band. Bob Weir rhythm guitar, Phil Lesh bass, this was probably Keith Godchaux on piano, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann on drums. Yes two drummers. They are one of the most prolific musical artists EVER! Don't Forget lyricist Robert Hunter who wrote a majority of songs but was just that. The writer member of the band. Since Jerry's death in 95 the band has taken on many forms all of them great! But jerry will forever be missed. He's irreplaceable.

[@scarletfire9812]

You went down the rabbit hole on this one

[@ExecutiveChefLance]

Whoa I don't remember 6-9 being so damn good. How can anyone not recognize the Dead as one of the top all time Classic Rock bands like holy smokes this is good. When the Dead are on it is like Magic. Other bands are really Tight and have amazing live shows. But the Dead do it on another level because it doesn't always work with their improv style. But when it works holy crap.

You might become Australia's second deadhead after me if you're not careful. Maybe I'm over stating it, but they're few and far between in Oz.

Go from this version to 4/1/84… Jerry forgets the lyrics to Help, typical for the time, but I don’t think he ever sung a better version of Franklins Tower to make up for it. And 99% of Deadheads here are saying “84?? Cmon!!” I s**t you not my friends. If you listen you’ll hear 😉😉😉.
