Grateful Dead - Row Jimmy (Egypt 9/16/78)

[@gratefuldead]

"Acknowledged by Jerry as one of his favourite songs to play live, Row Jimmy was a complex, interesting, and dynamic song played more than 275 times. This wonderful version from Egypt features some beautiful interplay between everyone in the band." - David Lemieux

[@fernandobolanos1649]

!!!!! (hope one day they share all de five nights in Winterland 74)

[@joeynice123]

A special song for me. The final time I saw them play it love was pdx 1995 and I was stage front. I will never forget it. I remember thinking I may never hear Jerry live again. I am fortunate to have seen 22 shows from the end of 90 through 95.

[@chriskertesz8367]

Wake of the Flood was my first Dead album!! Though the Dead are one of the best live bands ever I still love their studio albums

[@Plumberron64]

Puts ters in my eyes every time. I miss Jerry so much. I will be with him soon. Love all you dead heads.

[@morganthomas5934]

Fernando Blaños Charles Hazard on yt has videos with the largest amount of the Winterland 74 shows that I’ve seen if that’s handy

[@sidviscous5959]

Back in the day, when I was in college, a friend of mine said that the thing about the Dead was that the band members were like waves on a graph, each plotting out a different wave. But every once in a while they would get in sync. And that was the magic.

[@brianduffy2361]

Amen. I always remember reading in college Relix mag and I always remember one line one of the writers said… If they ever could get on the same page every night .. No one would ever want to listen to any other music .. Well said Sid.

[@chrispyle2942]

Thats a great way to put it. Bobby plays the magic tune that brings the waves all back to select frequency

[@horseyhorselips3501]

[@Pearls_Have_Eyes]

maybe for the video quality?

[@richardrybinski2320]

@@Pearls_Have_Eyes maybe for Bobby's terrible slide tone.......he is such a good guitarist but I always cringe at his slide playing. But that's just my opinion. Otherwise I really dig this version.

[@dre4011]

I certainly wouldn't! I have truly loved the Grateful Dead probably most of my life!

[@jasonbrown6113]

Lot of people, they're not for everybody. As Jerry himself said, they're like licorice, not everybody likes it but those who do REALLY like it. I've tried playing the Dead for a lot of people over the years and they often hate it or just find it boring.

I don't care what anyone says and I'm from the south. The grateful dead is America. They are the epitome of true American rock. I can't explain it with much articulation, but if you know, you know.

Like if America had a band to represent them, the voice of what America was, they are it.

[@greatwestern101]

I have reached my half century and have been listening to rock for well over half of that time........18 months ago I finally got into the 'Dead after ignoring them for decades. They have changed my view of what is possible in rock music, especially Jerry and Phil. Jerry Garcia saw wide musical vistas when most other guitarists were fumbling for their glasses.....

[@heinz812]

Sweet, funky and sooo mellow! These jams could go on forever. In a way they will! Peace to all the brothers and sisters!

[@mattbecker4320]

I was in Giza in February 1979. I was only 11 at the time. Someone at the hotel asked if I knew anything about the American rock band that had recently played at The Pyramids. I had no clue at the time. Years later walking around the lot I saw something about the Egypt shows and knew instantly the answer to that question so many years prior. These are the shows I really wish I had seen.

[@johnr8820]

There is so much excellent American music but this just embodies all of that spirit. Grateful Dead forever.

they sound great. it was a good year for them in 1978. i know the dead always said they did not play good in Egypt, but I must disagree. i think the shows in Egypt 09/14,15,16/78- Son Et Lumiere Theater - Giza, Egypt deserves another listen or viewing. i could be wrong but did hear some of the tapes got messed up audio, video, or both, but if what is available and did survive sounds as good as this, row jimmy, they are in their element at an incredibly special place.
