I feel like one of the most underrated things about Jerry is what he does when someone else is on vocals or taking a solo. Jerry is ALWAYS playing something interesting and super tasteful in the background, he knows how to play in the background just as well as he knows how to play out in front.

[@dbasstij512]

Yes! Some of Jerry's greatest solos are on Bob songs...

[@bradyjamesmusic]

Always felt this way about Let it Grow. Jerry does some great stuff on that tune.

[@aaronhudlow5649]

Agree. Brent had an uncanny knack of doing the same. When Brent and Jerry were both the complimentary background for bob it was fantastic.

[@nflrunes]

I saw Dylan this past Friday at the Orpheum in Boston. Highlight of the night was his cover of Brokedown Palace. The whole crowd was enraptured! I love the friendship and affinity the Dead and Dylan have for each other to this day! An enduring bond.

[@sixfiftyfive2386]

That's so cool! The Dead are forever, so glad Dylan is part of it

[@robbrebbia2998]

First off, thank you for these videos. Your analysis is gold. Ok, to your comment about Jerry knowing his theory...Jerry absolutely knows what he's doing, far more so than he's ever given credit for. There's a recorded interview from the 80's, I think with Fretboard, where he's asked straight out if he knows what he's doing musically. His answer is classic Jerry, humble and devoid of ego as always, deflecting the focus to others: "oh yeah, I know what I'm doing musically. The people I play with are too good for me not to know." You can hear the knowledge in his modulation choices and other on-the-fly decision making. it ain't being done blind.

[@daveseidnergd]

I was at this show, great times!

[@strangequark420]

I attended this show. It was my fourth, and it changed me.

[@rdw5150]

Thanks! Nice to see the Dead back on the feed. Peace!

[@nathanielvargas3863]

This is one of my favorite songs they covered

[@hmich176]

💯💯💯

[@dlparker]

And here it is - another graduate seminar in a master's approach to improv. Thanks again Michael!

[@adamhanninen8295]

Dude Mike a run of the Dead would be exactly what I need leading into (or during dog) the holiday season 👌🏼

[@roflcookies]

I always found it funny that Weir would nail all the lyrics to this song and Desolation Row, but would always mess up the lyrics to Truckin' and Sugar Magnolia. Also for all the flak Brent gets for his dated 80's synth tones, dude was a monster on the B3. Shame he died so young

[@AaronLS.]

I love the way Michael teaches the Dead

[@gordon-hensley]

Killer!... Love your love and appreciation for the magic of the Grateful Dead 🙏

[@MrTonicAmps]

Love it Michael!! Always want more breakdowns of the Dead. Also love that Jerry is smiling throughout!!

[@zacnation]

It’s the little lessons like “the pentatonic removes half steps” that keep me watching. So simple and obvious yet not always discussed.

[@jgold78]

Toodleoo!

[@adamhanninen8295]

This is one of your all time best/ educational reacts ps I hope you still get the barn 👌🏼

[@gregorygarcia6542]

Great video. I always loved the band covering Dylan songs. One of my favorite things is when Jerry sings the higher Harmony and Bob is the low voice. It just has a really distinctive and full sound. Damn, how I miss that fat man!

[@adamgunn2885]

Hearing Grateful Dead covering "It's all over now, Baby Blue" was my intro to them and I was hooked from that point.

[@TOMas12408]

24:02 This is why I love the Dead! Moments that just sweep you off your feet in shock and awe

[@georgedrake6812]

The most underrated guitar player ever ,Jerry was Tha shitz

[@demiller67]

"Little Jer rope-a-dope" Freakin' love it!

[@ethanrightmyer255]

Thank you Michael !! Now I’m beginning to understand the Dead so much more and genius of Jerry 🤘✌️

[@TOMas12408]

Love it! Can we get some Hell In A Bucket from the same show?

[@Lalmadar]

That’d be fantastic! It’s one of the best versions out there!

[@kevinmaddog3064]

I love when he breaks down Grateful Dead

[@mikem668]

There's a great interview where Jerry said he felt strange teaching Dylan his own songs. He asked him if he'd remember the lyrics. Dylan responded, the important ones. Fantastic video. Lots of helpful tips. Thanks.

[@Guitargate]

Lol! Of course that’s what he said. Classic. Thx!

[@dlparker]

And you're so right about the dynamics - plural. How many bands have we played in that had just 'dynamic'? Or the 'dynamics' consisted entirely of louder and louder...

[@rhlang11]

amazing how many lyrics Jerry and Bob knew. I think they are both genius.

[@anthonymigliaro2494]

happy to be here early especially for some dead

[@MrYatesj1]

That staccato bass line you mentioned that Phil was rocking was Friend of the Devil

[@searing7549]

Jerry is the goat!

[@nelsonw2096]

Excellent choice and thanks for pointing out the D,D# thing. I love it when Jerry pushes the chord tones. Thank you Michael!

[@cyrusgreenejr.8128]

It's amazing how you seen it on discord and in a few hours you got it posted on the channel. The benefits of having little to no editing

[@manyvibes1540]

😍Jerry’s guitar👍

[@johnmcelhaney8490]

sweeeet intro! "Typical Dylan toon" hah. what chord progression Man I wish I could afford your classes. I think what you have done is Stellar!

[@MrYatesj1]

I Love Bobby!!!!

[@a-guitar2734]

That was really cool

[@nealmccarthy5903]

TYTYTY MP! 🌹⚡💀🎵 always dig these deadsections! More and more live Dead/JGB 🙏

[@jeremycraft8452]

I was just obsessing over this very version of this tune.

[@nomo9344]

intro sounds like Welcome to the Jungle, sans delay

[@feetheweasel]

I've seen a lot of live shows over the yrs....lots of jam bands like Phish, Strung Cheese, WSP and so many others. No other band listened to each other better than the Dead. And not only listened to each other, they got turned on by each other and inspired to "go for it" 87' to 90' was special. So grateful I got on that bus when I did. Still wish you'd do a lesson to Martin Sexton. His tuning. Tips for getting my thumb to play the bass lines...etc.etc.etc. "Can't Stop Thinking About You" from the Live Wide Open record would be great. ✌️❤️

[@rs02984]

unrelated... would love to hear/watch your reaction to some Marvelous 3/Butch Walker !

[@dawsoncollins9368]

I love that guitar strap, wow that’s nice!

[@dalegiles817]

I am not a member yet. But I would like you to watch the music video by Billy Strings and his band along with Molly Tuttle. I would like you to watch how them two connect on this song. I would like you to tell me what Molly is thinking with her facial expressions playing with Billy. Watch how he pushes her but she stays right with him. I would love to here your opinion of what is going through her mind. They are playing at the greyfox in 2019.

[@dalegiles817]

The name of the song is Lil Maggie

[@GuitarGerber]

One of the things I find fascinating about Dead And Company is when Bobby sings Jerry tunes, John gets to accompany in ways Jerry never could! It might be cool to pick a D&C Bobby sings Jerry song to pick apart just to see how different the approach can be!

[@ish474]

man that particular PRS looks especially good!

[@dlparker]

All the tunes on the "Postcards..." album kick ass. I think they kept all of them in the repertoire. Did I read here that they were all blown away when they found out Bob Dylan wanted them for his backup band?

[@danielfritz5020]

Ain’t nobody like Jerry !!!

[@johnjobin7694]

Awesome❤️

[@coldshotblues]

Love that! “Same notes different focus” (~)};

[@doriantamarra936]

Can you do a deep dive on weather report suite or let it grow?

[@TOMas12408]

YES

[@ththejackjumper]

Really great! Dylan cover. Lol Bobby on the Ibanez shredder guitar. And Phil on headless bass?

[@searing7549]

It’s a Modulus guitar.

[@RagggedTrouseredPhilanthropist]

I think some kind of reaction to those shorts is needed...

[@lukefish7562]

❤️⚡️💀⚡️💙 Nice Mike! And you’re looking grate buddy! Healthy!

[@blamingsatire1687]

You gotta check out Guthrie Govan if you haven't already! He is an incredible guitarist

[@andretib4614]

You never finished the Barton Hall show. Looking forward to St Stephen

[@petertoft70]

Saw them with Dylan in 86

[@Stephen-nd1sx]

I hear people say Jerry aimlessly noodles around. I cant play or read music. So i can't explain why they are wrong... Any imput would be appreciated!

[@searing7549]

They are melodically deaf!

[@outlawcountry6069]

Hey Micheal , absolutely love your channel and your content . I’ve got a recording I’d love to send to you to hear . How could I go about this ?

[@areyoukind1955]

Bob gets these lyrics correct but can't do Truckin' to save the world

[@gfunkehauser502]

bad rap from the drugs! lol! i know what he means, but it's so funny to some of us that this idea still persists. the dead were improvisational rock n roll tight wire walkers and the drugs were just...you know...whatever

[@PreferReefer]

Could you please react to the red clay strays, they are incredible

[@HyzersGR]

Sup Michael!

[@wiliamcrane2224]

Check out Joe Russo almost dead at red rocks on you tube Absolute fire 2 song clip of Jack Straw and Althea !!!!

[@TheSoundOutside]

Jerry was sui generis...a one off. No one sounds like him and it's not even close.

[@BustaChimes]

I wana like the dead so bad. It's always just felt off for some reason. Like maybe the singing and music doesn't go together for me. Like the opening rift i was really liking then it just felt weird. Waiting for it to click.

[@roberthieber1]

I’m a big Dead fan, but prefer their studio recordings. I know sacrilegious to most fans. But some of their live shows just meander around for me, especially shows from the 80s and 90s. They have some great songs on their albums though!

[@mjk45]

For me in comparison to the original recording. it lacks energy .

[@searing7549]

Have u listened to Europe’72? If not, give it a listen. Also, check out One From The Vault.

[@keepconciousnessalive5249]

Start with live ‘69 stuff; go to 72-74; then 77. If you still don’t like, then you probably won’t. But If you do, you’ll get hooked for life.
