"Jack Straw" - Phil Lesh and Friends ft. Marcus King Live From The Capitol Theatre 10/29/22

[@Whatsinanameanyway13]

So glad Phil is still going strong after all these years. Great show, and hopefully many more to come.

[@steinbauge4591]

His son's a fine musician too

[@peteshallcross787]

Great song. Phil left us today but left us with decades of excellence! See you on the other side if I make the list.

[@MorganBrackeen]

Phil never disappoints. Such a master! At the end, Phil smiled because he knew that was fire.

[@benwitte8832]

You're right. He still feels it. And loves it like we do.

[@juniorwhitefish]

Dude, that was jack straw, not fire. 😂

[@adamkrauss303]

That was phenomenal. Brought tears to my eyes seeing Phil going strong at 83. Sorry I missed the show.

[@alanbauch2815]

That's so pretty, so much sentiment and heart, a beautiful tapestry. Seeing Phil smiling like that at the end brought the tears to my eyes

[@marblemark1903]

Stellar Straw, marcus can just jam anything... and luv the smile on phil's face at the end. Thnx again for the countless share's !

[@Strik9]

The smile on Phils face speaking volumes.

The best of all the Dead cover bands!

[@GrahamForshaw]

Not a Dead 'Cover Band'. Grrrrrr...

[@ehdit]

@@GrahamForshaw Why not? I think Dead & Co is a cover band too.

[@elijahwilson1422]

Yet it's not the Grateful Dead neither just because Phil was leading the band that night.

[@JayChevako]

I love me some old school tempo changes In Jack Straw. My favorite versions are the ones where you aren't sure if they are playing fast or slow, but Jerry did play blisteringly fast. Jay

[@debbiepaschen5369]

Yaaaay, Phil! Great band you got there!

[@joeryan1369]

What a great band!

[@glassncobalt]

Not sure how Phil's bands are put together, but they are consistently very good. They are certainly my favorite permutations of the Dead. He's still one of my favorite bass players.

[@jewelsandbinoculars1]

‘cept The Grateful Dead perhaps

[@glassncobalt]

Of course.

[@tarotreadereugene5272]

So good. This block of shows was amazing. My favorite Jack Straw. hoping this channel puts out the Halloween show closer. If they want views, nothing beats that closer.

[@iamtpoptpopiam1672]

so beautiful i have chills

[@carlos_herrera]

Hey, this was my wedding anniversary. I grew up close enough to walk to the Capitol but moved out of the area before they started doing concerts again. Sorry I never caught Phil there while he was with us

[@edhayes9037]

Best solo I've ever seen from Grahame there. I like the tone of the red Les Paul a lot more than the blonde 335 he often has.

[@steinbauge4591]

amazing interplay with the other guitarist

[@benwitte8832]

If when you say "Bob's band" you're referring to Dead & Company. Then, no, that band played 2 shows at the Gorge recently. I attended both shows. They were mind-blowing. The best Dead & Co shows I've seen. Astonishing and fabulous.

[@ToddHastings-ji5lp]

The way Phil smiled when hearing the crowd's reaction to him doing Jerry's verse seriously kicks me in the feels. He and Jerry were The Dead.

[@TK-fk4po]

Now THAT’s the speed it’s supposed to be.

[@leshtricity]

yup. can't stand the Dead and Co renditions that put me to sleep.

[@TK-fk4po]

@@leshtricity I saw them in 18’ and some tunes were fantastic (Cumberland blues, Althea) where Mayer just ripped. But others were like in slo-mo. Seeing them for the final tour this summer and hoping they have some fire underneath.

[@chriscollum5658]

They’ve been a lot speedier on this last tour! Still play this one too slow for me tho

[@georod5642]

This one is pretty slow as well

[@TheBryanBobby]

Yes! Thank you! Rip Phil

Phil, thank you. I am getting a heart transplant this month and I know you are a great supporter of donations.

[@jcarry5214]

When I got to see him it was the last thing he asked of the crowd before he left "I'm only here because of grace and an organ donor, please be a donor for someone else!"

Get well soon !

Awesome as always!

There is an infinite number of Grateful Deads continuing exponentially outward higher and higher forever forward

[@MarkBoehm]

You could argue that there are any number of jazz players with greater technical proficiency, but to my ear, NOBODY tops Phil. Not now, not ever. He's the best.

[@AndrewSmith-pc8eq]

Phil is a living legend!!!

[@ronirosovsky7295]

Rest in peace Phil

[@christina_2]

Phil and friends 🎉

[@billorourke7152]

I hope I can still jam at 83

[@MeherabadMoments]

Great jam--one of the best I've heard in a while! You could tell they were really feeling it and reminds me of my favorite Dead jam: "Hard to Handle" from Fallout from the Philzone (kzbin.info/www/bejne/n32ZYp-Ifbp5i5Jh-love how the crowd gets more and more excited in this recording).

[@tomdanielson2860]

Kind of like The Outlaws cover GD.Three electric guitars stepping on each other. But thankfully they could play well and it came through, kind of. I don't need to hear a Grahame Lesh solo for awhile. If not for Marcus King's name I wouldn't have clicked it. I did listen to the whole thing at least FWIW.

[@Marshall_Stacks]

On the contrary, I've never heard Lesh Jr. rip a solo like that. That Marcus mutant is not all he's cracked up to be.

[@susiefairfield7218]

Thank you Relix ❤

[@GiantSFaithfuL]

Love it. That first 5 minutes had a major pentatonic Dickey Betts vibe. Really dug it and the transition.

[@lorenvguitar614]

Marcus's solo was really on point,

[@jakecarvitto9539]

Nice energy, fun tempo changes. I’m sure it was a blast being there. Of course there is a “but”. All of these post Garcia bands have their flaws. Bobby gets bashed for his slow tempos. I get it and can’t fault anyone for that take. Phil’s bands have a tendency to be busy, as in the stage is pretty full. 3 guitarists doing lead?!?!? I’m surprised they didn’t line up front to back and sway back and forth like Lynyrd Skynyrd. Sonically it could benefit from some space.

[@jonathanhiggins7686]

Valid points....I think Graham is more rythm, but agree ...we like some space....but I like it more on this side of chaotic than old n slow

[@lorenvguitar614]

I agree to that, sometimes it is just too much, players need to get out of each others way at times.

[@justwantresults8768]

Grahame has very big shoes to fill, but it appears he knows what to do. To quote Bob Weir (more or less): "I think we have now gotten it just exactly perfect" "

[@anunripecantaloupe340]

It’s Laughable that there’s almost no camera time for Marcus

[@daksskier7416]

I’m sure it’s out of love for his son and the fact that he wants to spend time with him as he ages (can’t fault the man for that) but I always wish Phil would leave Grahame out of the “friends”. There’s no need for 3 guitars when the other 2 are Krasno and King.

[@LudiCrust.]

💯 He’s nowhere near the other 2’s level.

[@danielshade710]

When does the intro end? When vocals come in? Or when the allmann bros solo starts? This music always seems to start but never get anywhere. It’s on or off like super compressed except the tempo which always drags. It’s weird noodle music I can’t understand

[@zzzzzach]

It's about tension and release. Like a wave that builds up but doesn't crash, calms down and builds up again. You're not sure this time but then we're there and the wave finally comes crashing down with a roar and settles into calmness back where it all started. The Dead were a dance band ultimately. When you let the energy of the music do the talking by the way it moves you physically and touches you emotionally, that's when you get it.

[@thomasju1]

I was there 10/28 & 10/29! Jack Straw was FIRE. Phil is simply peerless. Nicki Bluhm, Markus King, Eric Krasno were amazing. Watching Phil do what he loves with his son warms my heart and listening to such talented musicians' tribute to the Dead is truly a gift. However, Grahame really shouldn't sing any songs... No hate... but Grahame's voice kills the sweet vibes for me.

[@scottrose8417]

I think if ya gonna have Marcus on stage let him rip. Both other guitarists just sort of somewhat hogged the whole tune until the end.

[@FrankFerrari-i8o]

Absolutely Let Marcus Shred

[@zzzzzach]

Man, why did I never catch any of these shows. Seems much more where the spirit of GD is over Dead and Co. Not that I mind that Dead and Co are out there playing. Just never seemed much interesting to me. It's the tempo I guess although it works for some tunes. I prefer what I've seen from Phil and Phriends

[@leshtricity]

it's a good version but Graham's solo feels a bit egotistical when he's got two world class guitarists next to him. there's nothing wrong with playing rhythm guitar.

[@LoganBischoff]

Finally Marcus King playing dead

[@nightflight7878]

I prefer Leah and Friends over other recent offerings from former Deqd members. They can manage a tempo that is more suited for those with a pulse.

[@TheHonudiver]

Horrible video editing.

[@Rob-fd6si]

Capitol gets the best shows.

Now I have ta say Phil Lesh and Friends is way better than Bob's band. Bobs last show was proof he and his band need a rest.

​@Errand Wolfe hey there fellow music lover was that joke really necessary? Probably not but either way please refrain from suggesting that any musician dies.
