Grateful Dead - It Must Have Been The Roses - 10/31/1980 - Radio City Music Hall

[@jimgucciardo7643]

I was there. And wish I could just jump into this screen and be back again

[@ingrids1551]

I wish I'd been there. I had just moved out of the area, and I was pretty broke in those days - but I should have just made the trip.

[@georgeferguson7536]

The person I love the most...loved this song as much as I do. We were together many years, 2 beautiful boys, wish it could have been longer....Miss you Mike , I will keep spinning the music

[@mwatershoes]

Thank you George for this nice little story, it warms my heart and gives me hope. Obviously I did not know your Mike, but if you think it might feel nice for you to tell a bit more, I would love to hear it... feel free to say hi sometime- [e-mail]

[@chrissawyer4060]

Mike still loves and adores you. You will see him in the great cellestial. You won't even have to look for him.

[@dalecovey4728]

You made me cry :/

[@tracyhill6166]

​@@dalecovey4728made me cry, too. I think about all the Deadheads in the great beyond and wonder, do we get to know Jerry? Is Jerry still Jerry? ❤ NFA, for real.

[@swampweasel]

So beautiful still in 2024 best lineup rip guys much love to all of you still tuned in

[@TumpskyandMrsSmall]

It took me 62 years, with a ton of loss, to slow down long enough, to really see and absorb and love The Dead. A reconnection with an old high school flame got me listening, and I'm truly grateful.

[@henksr.652]

Me too😊

[@keithwelch9351]

Welcome aboard and feel the love

[@codyschnuriger6743]

At least you’re ‘grateful’ before you’re dead.

[@DiannMelodyDunkley-sx2jr]

I didn't know how much I'd love THE DEAD Music until I saw their concert in the late 80s.

[@moosey62]

WTF. This was 44 years ago? Good job I haven't aged a day. Apart from the waistline, eyesight, hairline, hearing, I'm still 21.

[@lisaburns5597]

I'm in the hospital very sick and my baby boy sent this to me. I love him so much

[@chrissawyer4060]

I hope you are better today.

Annie laid her head down in the roses She had ribbons, ribbons, ribbons in her long brown hair I don't know, maybe it was the roses All I know, I could not leave her there I don't know, it must have been the roses The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair I don't know, maybe it was the roses All I know, I could not leave her there Ten years the waves rolled the ships home from the sea Thinking well how it may blow in all good company If I tell another what your own lips told to me Let me lay 'neath the roses and my eyes no longer see One pane of glass in the window No one is complaining, though, come in and shut the door Faded is the crimson from the ribbons that she wore And it's strange how no one comes round any more

[@MrMonkchuck]

Far & away my favorite version of this song. Just perfection.

[@sharecroppersmule7361]

This was released on a double album “for the faithful”, I had it on vinyl. My favorite Dead. Recorded over about a week or so at Radio City Music Hall. Later they changed the name to “Reckoning” At least that is my experience. So much great acoustic work on this collection. My favorite versions of “ripple” & “China doll”

[@justanotherrandomcrit8115]

@@sharecroppersmule7361 Actually Reckoning was the original title, For the Faithful was the reprint.

[@ralph5501]

come in and shut the door

[@frimports]

Thinking well how it blow in all good company, Hunter just had a way of saying it.

[@jimfladwood4393]

The DEAD played Box of Rain at Red Rocks in 1987. Phil played this on the FRETLESS AND TORE DOWN THE HOUSE! Rest in peace Mr Phil 💔☮️

[@frankleasure9588]

Always makes my eyes tear up..for times past ( no longer touchable..) , for Jerry , for love lost and love absorbed...

[@hq8971]

One of thee most underrated Robert Hunter songs of all time. Always brings such a sweet tear to my eyes. Thank you guys!!❤

[@hunzilla3122]

Never grows old....just epic

[@LoveFlatfootin1]

It must be the most touching thing I've ever heard. Makes me think of my David, musician's musician who introduced me to the Grateful Dead. RIP, sweetheart.

I met Annie at one of the Providence shows and here we are still together all these years later. RIP Phil. Thanks for the memories.

I WAS THERE 1980 STILL REMEMBER IT WELL

[@EricGarciastussy]

please tell us some stories from that night....please?

[@thiscorrosion900]

I never got to see them live, alas, but it seems common wisdom that the Dead were still firing on all cylinders on the tours from 77-1982 or so. After that, it might have gotten dicey, not sure.

[@nancymo2773]

I was in the front row in PHOENIX AZ. 118 in the shade. No shade . No breeze. Only perspiration from the drummer for hydration. They took no breaks. 5 hours of a day I'll never ever forget. It was about 1981 give or take. Beautiful memories

[@ocbong2227]

Nobody ever made it sound so sweet ever.nirthth lufe,death.jerry is always there

[@rsshapiro]

I spent the best years of my younger life in Humboldt County, northern California. At some point not longer after I left, I realized I would never rekindle those years. The lines starting with "One pane of glass in the window. No one is complaining though come in and shut the door....and no one comes around anymore" capture that more than any song I've ever heard. This version is one of the sweetest and cherished.

[@JayBoyle-y3m]

It does take u back ,and wow. Verry few roses after early 80 s miss my jerry licks and the rest

[@thejamnasium6447]

this should be the most viewed video on KZbin

[@jeanziehe6396]

Watch this almost every day❤️

[@ogxj6]

A copy of this version was on KZbin for about 11 years as well as in my favorites, up until it suddenly was deleted one day recently. So grateful to see someone put it back on! It’s strange how no one comes around anymore

[@rogue2469241]

So beautiful it brings a tear to my eyes 💀⚡🌹🎸❤️

[@zaqwertyfish]

Hoping to get my girl back from the darkness... Been many years, but she's my one and only... I'm truly not worthy...

[@desertweasel6965]

She's a narcissist that has poisoned your mind. Break free. How can you say that you are not worthy? You know how? Because that's how she made you feel, like you never measured up. This is a tactic they use to manipulate your mind and make you feel " not worthy".

[@blackhatmen6385]

Mr. Weasel, well said

[@teocastillon9916]

Go get her!

[@desertweasel6965]

I told my Deadshow story on the original video that vanished so I will share again. I had camped out at Turtles to get my tickets in 93 in Atlanta at the Omni. I was looking for a couple hits of acid to enjoy the show. I ended up 15ft from the stage. Earlier, I was approached by a girl that said " Sheets and shrooms". I told her I only wanted a couple hits and she said she couldn't break a sheet. I was very disappointed and walked off. Then, as I was walking through the lot, an old deadhead was standing there looking like an old tree. He looks right at me and says " free doses". I walk over and he gives me 3 hits of acid, which I immediately take. Then, I see the girl from earlier and she had apparently not forgot me and took mercy and just gave me 3 hits. I was tripping so hard by the start of the show. I yelled out " Hey Jerry"!! And he looked at me, nodded and winked. It was so awesome. However, i was tripping so hard that I had to leave and go up into the upper stands. It was just too much. As I reached the upper levels there were thousands of people tripping their balls off. People laying on the ground in various states of hysteria and yelling things out like " SKELETONS"!! I walked out into the stadium and looked down at the stage at this huge mass of people and balloons. I saw these color pulses coming off of the band's instruments, hitting the ceiling and bouncing back down onto the crowd. It was one of the best times of my life. So much more happened.

[@rosemarynicoll5085]

Love this song

[@thiscorrosion900]

One of my fave Dead tunes of all time. When I first started taking guitar lessons in 1978 or so, all of 10 years old, I made sure I went and bought the huge GD songbook (the one with the black and blue cover or whatever it was). I learned tons just from trying (badly) to play some of those songs, and this one had the easiest chords, overall! I really credit that songbook and the Dead for helping me start learning guitar, of course my teachers as well. Later I had Pink Floyd songbooks etc., which I collected anyway.

[@thiscorrosion900]

P.S. US Blues was another one I could just barely manage!
