GRATEFUL SHRED - "Shakedown Street" (Live at JITV HQ in Los Angeles, CA 2017)

[@22hogfan94]

Don't care what anyone says, these guys are the best dead cover band out there. Absolutely killer.

[@christopherthomas6535]

Absolutely man. Never heard any others to change my mind.

[@ChicoFagundes78]

Agree

[@dkurt22mm]

I wish they would tour though

[@jaredpaul2521]

Ummm JRAD?

[@fungusjack1096]

Austin Gale sick profile pic

[@SlightReturn666]

That's the ONLY guy I've ever heard on bass who captures the Phil attitude and feel. Love it!!!

[@kjguitarman]

The guy playing the strat upside down is an unbelievable guitarist. I'm guessing he learned that way and has stuck with it since? All of these guys are killer musicians. Unbelievable talent!!

[@naturalmystery]

I know, blows my mind everytime I watch them.

[@SanFranciscoFatboy]

how do u do that :). is it a left handed squire? amazing cool artist :). i see something new everyday on this utubber

[@JoeMathie]

​​@@SanFranciscoFatboy that's how you could do it if you are a righty but this dude is seemingly a lefty using a right handed guitar

[@tomschlaerth8547]

Yea so crazy. Really good

[@M8Lfan]

This is the dead cleaned up and sober and firing on all cylinders. I can finally embrace the music. Thanks Grateful Shred. You have brought these great tunes back to life!

[@matthewwayne5716]

M8Lfan I couldn’t agree more man, you nailed it 🎸💀🤙🏻

[@jclar7210]

I never thought of that but it makes sense. After a certain year in the 80's The GF just sounded horrible, not sure the ressons, but maintenance was probably non existent, either way thank you for giving this song clarity and a very Nice sound!!

[@american_cosmic]

@@jclar7210 "After a certain year in the 80's The GF just sounded horrible, not sure the ressons" -- The main reasons are alcohol, drugs, and exhaustion. They toured almost non-stop to keep the whole machine going, and they didn't take very good care of themselves... particularly Lesh and Garcia.

[@SweatLaserXP]

I've watched this set like a dozen times over the last couple of years, and it's just amazing. The original band would be jealous of their polish. Of course, it helps if you're not running on cocaine and heroine, but that's another story. Great job guys, that is an absolutely perfect rendition of a classic hippie jam!

[@WerJim]

Master disco gem from the Greatful Dead :-) Just love it.

[@dougpotosky4102]

Remember 3 guitar players! And they all playing different licks-chords. That is very cool. The whole band is great! Plus 3 vocalists that can sing! Play on!

[@PupienusMagnus]

The jams are great and they’re an amazing cover band, the “3 vocalists that can sing” part is very debatable tho.

[@kramercp]

That's a GREAT Shakedown.

[@davidkillander5063]

Been watching this clip since it first aired. Just came back to it after a couple of months. DAMN that drummer is holding it down. Also props to the guitarists of course, but Dan Horne on the bass is just killer god damn. Last but not least, dude on the organ is a master. Holy cow i love the Dead and everyone who is keeping the legacy alive. Cheers everybody!!

[@benthepainter4639]

These cats are ice cold man they have great chemistry together

[@georgehimon1445]

Love this band ,as good as it can be done it's perfection

[@voydgaming5753]

The groove those guys have is unreal!

[@tracedehaven2190]

I hope you guys are writing original material. This is too good not to go for the next level. And whatever you do, hold on to this drummer, he is like gold!

[@dalealongsr7085]

Such Quality. Awesome. and you can hear them sing the words too.

[@tulrnr]

These guys have the goods,no doubt about it. Definitely catching their 2022 Colorado tour. They’ll definitely,be around a long time. The music will never stop !!

[@thelatenightbar]

That was awesome. really captured the funkiness of that tune. A real classic. Thanks for sharing. on a side note.. ok, the dude playing the guitar upside down.. I mean playing it "lefty" sure.. but he's playing it upside down ! LOL crazy.

[@hectorsicairos838]

The band's tone is very smooth, each musician is here plays a solid role and the upside down guitar is a strange plus! Well, well, well, you can never tell. I'm sure Jerry would be delighted!

[@williamnorkelun1468]

My new fav band as of 5/18/18 since discovering these vids!

[@mimiwill5618]

Glad you like them. Go see them in concert. I stood in front of their stage and not only do they have amazing sound quality as far as mixing goes, their loud as shit! Wonderful show. Go see em!

[@michaelb.42112]

This song is so badass. I don't care what anyone says, Disco was so awesome, and I will NEVER understand how RAP won. You guys are on FIRE , totally earned my sub'd. SO awesome you all sing and take turns. You guys are all killer musicians and that drummer is GROOVY.

[@jaycloudzz]

Wow best cover of shakedown I’ve heard in a while

[@luvbasses5487]

Great band here! I absolutely loved this. Great sense of teamwork and musicianship. Keep it up!

[@michaelpettinicchi789]

I usually click on covers etc not expecting much, but this is incredible!!

[@RogerBaswell]

This band hold the flame....COME TO THE UK!

[@kevinheinz1879]

SHRED HEADS! Yeah, Yeah! Yeah! Wonderful jobs guys!

[@brandonshafer1220]

Low key the best shakedown

[@Dogsrule777]

Good ole Lee Pardini on keys! 💯❤️☮️

[@IDoStuffPHYSCHE]

i had no idea blake shelton was actually a cool piano player.

[@Mark-ts5pd]

HIL ARRRRIOUS

[@mimiwill5618]

LOL! GOOD ONE! 😊😊🌿🍄🌿🍄

[@jamborock9685]

Wooo!

[@gratefuljr]

Derek Windell and Jeff Spicolli on lead!

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Love it love it. One of my favorite songs ever.

[@sophiapde6679]

Uhhh..some Motown Music..Great number..You guys Rock !..

[@adamcharles7564]

From the swamps of La. I hear Ya!!! Right the fuck on.llll

[@PecktheTownCrier]

Feelin this lead guitarist.

[@haleymay1119]

This is the bomb! These guys are really good. I love the eye on the TV screen in back of them. Somehow that ties everything together and makes my mushroom-windowpane acid peyote pot trip a little more enhanced. That eye really jacked with me for a minute there. BAD EYE!

[@trevorwiley489]

So sick

[@maazvdo]

Nice cover. Thanks for posting, Jam in the Van .

[@SlowLlama92]

Jesus Christ! Lead man is gonna break something and we aren't gonna be able to fix it!

[@stephaniec.8418]

Never really cared much for tribute/ cover bands.., but this is actually awesome 😎

[@JamintheVan]

Who else thinks it's funny that Grateful Shred have more views that Phil Lesh on our channel?

[@datawave5286]

It's a superb cover nice & clean like a disco ball...

[@toddish10]

Not funny at all. I only watched because I thought they were a punk rock dead cover band. Unfortunately they're just another regular Dead cover band, boring.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Not fans of Phil and the Family Bland. Nepotism usually doesn't work out well too often. Phil's keyboardist is decent on keys only.

[@joshpoe160]

Jam In The Van its hilarious and I get it. Sad, but true. Did they not know there are like 5 other bands doing the same thing?

[@jrc7660]

Yep

[@robertcarter4159]

Ok I'm hooked these cats ROCK! PLAYING UPSIDE DOWN!!!!!!

[@bookmedia67]

Fuck yeah! Left-handed Jerry!

[@TawdryTempest]

My favorite Dead song 😻 Sounds fantastic!

[@NingaDude231]

best cover band out there for sure but those live dead tracks send chills up my spine, jerrys solos and voice and all the backround noices , soinds so good hard to belive they are live

[@borselle]

A few thoughts: 1. This is awesome, better than the majority of dead cover bands I’ve seen and I’ve seen a lot. 2. That Squier strat sounds killer! 3. As a guitar player myself I cannot grasp how someone can play it so well upside down - nice job all around! Come to Burlington VT!

[@dnestap]

I get to enjoy some more the Grateful Dead sound. At least till it is my time to follow Jerry and the Other Ones. I love these boys.

[@jasonspeth1865]

Damn, this is fantastic.

[@SHININGSTAR-iz9dj]

You guys are way better then Shakedown.Street , I hate Shakedown Street. Splinterd Sunlight is awesome too. Thanks guys you rock

[@micahtiedemann4654]

Man, Mitch from "Dazed and Confused" really got with a dope band! KILLING IT BOYS!

[@leedrake9877]

Oh my holy S@!t. This is fantastic!

[@michaelhunter1093]

My most favorite guitar I've ever owned was a 2001 Squire Mexican lefty!! Wish I still had it.

[@barbaraann7610]

Guys, you are amazing! The Dead could've used you! Love your renditions! And your smiles--obviously you're having fun. Don't ever take this stuff too seriously and you'll always enjoy the music.

[@haleymay1119]

I love you guyz and got my tickets for chicago july 2018. Cant wait! You guys are phenomial!

[@boblemay6539]

very nice! got my day going with a smile, smile, smile!

[@whitegrissomchaffee2595]

Brilliant and amazing, just fu**ing great!!

[@Noah-eq3rn]

love the woos

[@JustSwell]

Watching the other ones play the dead's music always makes me appreciate how good the songwriting is. People always have a blast. I'm this song is groovy af.

[@ChicoFagundes78]

Dude, those guys are the coolest band in all over internet!

[@thewperry]

holy bananas these guys are good

[@davespedalsandprojects3516]

Only one word for it... awesome

[@1minrecording]

The bassist is amazing!

[@thesunnyveil]

Always vastly preferred Jerry on the Guild Starfire or the Fender gator Strat instead of those overpowering Alembic creations; so I'm loving this. P.S. Whoever did the audio engineering/mixing did a top notch job.

[@BishopAdamair]

Great sound.

[@jonnydupe07]

I've never heard these guys before. That was great!

[@rj6342]

These guys are good!!!

[@danindeed]

Unbelievably great band. I'm seeing them tonight in SLC!

[@joemarwil]

Good band!

[@GhostBassMan]

Great, thanks for sharing

[@davidgale2110]

awesome , love that wahwah ,great groove

[@Starrygirl63]

Awesome job guys!

[@MrFuzzmen]

Dick Dale guitar style. We like that. Great band. Cheers and best Regards from Argentina.

[@junkmonkey4562]

Killin it

[@entheo302]

just got turned on to these guys and love them!

[@BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHX7]

great harmony.

[@connorferrand527]

Drummer is worth his weight in gold. Rock solid.

[@LogicShouldRule]

I really like these guys! I'm gonna check out their other stuff.

[@apeofspades]

That rhythm guitar got me like.... The 70's.

[@tablaturebutler2823]

I used to own an Ibanez exactly like the one he's playing. Frankly, that one could be mine - I've never seen another one just like it. A fine instrument in every way - I sold it some years ago because it was just too heavy for me - the heaviest guitar I've ever owned...

[@ORDER4STU]

It's an ibanez mc300 i believe

[@brendanmoore5456]

Awesome camerawork at 2:53 going into focus right on the beat

[@edburns00]

Such. A. Tight. Groove!

[@agentsmith5514]

COOL SHIT

[@ElJefeOutlaw]

Good Stuff ! Thanks Guys

[@thomasrudder9639]

Im impressed. You guys are really good.

[@irockuroll60]

I think it is cute they have 3 guitar players. So kind of Bobby and Jerry to include John and to take Johns feelings into consideration

[@jag2039]

Cool Jam 🤘🏻😎

[@bob733333]

Decent vocals that don't wreck the song. Thanks!

[@tomatwood]

They actually sound tighter than the Dead did back in ´78.

[@srd2725]

they probably aren't all on heroin

[@Updog89]

They seem a lot healthier…

[@christopherboatmun8262]

They're spectacular! I just became a shred head.

[@showme1493]

im gonna guess none of these guys has ever seen a dead show...glad to see the appreciation of the dead's playing has tranversed that.

[@janenorton778]

Could that Box of Rain shirt be older than the person wearing it? ;-) Seriously, you guys are great!

[@TheRedbull101]

Most of mine are older than me as well, grateful for heady parents!

[@kevinwingler3370]

lol

[@haleymay1119]

Jane Norton I agree! And to top things off, their playing is just as vintage as the shirt top. Not bad for a group of talented guys who went even horn when then shirt was manufactured. I'm seeing them this July, 2018. Cant wait!

[@juanrecampher81]

Brilliant!!

[@geho9180]

That old Ibanez is cool... [it all is!]

[@johnm3152]

Love the Ibanez. Got a '77 Musician. A rock.

[@idamendez9629]

I saw them a year ago It was a whole lotta fun….came home with omnicrom though lol

[@patrickguitar8676]

Muscle refresh memory clam

[@svendrosenkvist3225]

KEEP GOING

[@michaelallen1396]

Drummer and the keyboard are high quality as is the rest of the band.

[@TheHeavyJetsBand]

Yes!

[@travisbryson4744]

Solid refreshing

[@jasonspeth1865]

Nice Shakedown fellas.

[@PecktheTownCrier]

Nice pocket, fellas, this is fun.

[@momandddad]

ah man, that was really sweet!

[@metavinci427]

Very nice groove.

[@GuriGaia]

Sweet!
