Ruben Blades & Jerry Garcia (MueveteI) - Aug. 2nd 1989 - Biltmore Bowl (Los Angeles) pt2 of 2

[@captainkangaroo4301]

Jerry turned 47 the day before this show. It looks like he got a new pair of tennis shoes for his birthday.

[@markwyatt5377]

It's fun to see Jerry moving around on stage like he used to way back in the early days. Plus, to see that twinkle in his eye, it's a very heart warming performance. His music will live forever!

[@jamiemusella2688]

When Jerry had the groove, nothing better❤️

[@davmets86]

This is amazing..Ralph Irizarry was my landlord and friend for 10 years in Brooklyn. I knew he toured and played with Ruben but I never knew that he played with Jerry Garcia!! Ralph is a humble and unassuming guy with a wonderful family. I used to hear his rehearsals with his salsa band upstairs from my basement apt.( great stuff).I knew of the Latin music greats he crossed paths with but he never told me that he jammed with Garcia,, The pure joy on Jerry's face says so much about how he was about the music be it blues, country, psychedelic free flowing name , bluegrass, flock of salsa!!

[@jpwjr1199]

that's mad cool

[@LoloYodel]

Good ol' Jerry appears as guest. In this second song, with Ruben Blades, he takes the spicy lead at 5:40 ... but the smiles are throughout.

[@energyasylum997]

Jerry Garcia slayed that solo!!! One versatile cat for sure!!! rip JG 😉🙏

[@phantomtides1204]

I watch this every so often, to remind myself how much Garcia loved just to play with other musicians, and not to bear responsibility for a million fans who turned him into some kind of deity that suffocated him. A minor detail, but the title of the track is "Muevete!" - with an exclamation mark, not an "l." In Spanish, "Muevete" translates as "Move Yourself!" - or, more simply, "Move!"

[@ericcarman4454]

Seeing Jerry smile like that made my heart sing. Joy in music.

[@doormasterbryan]

Jerry shaking his ramba. He looks happy.

[@meszaroslaszlo203]

Bryan Blackledge yeah, good to see...kept me smiling too!

[@rdel494]

There will never be another artist who enjoys other peoples jamming like Mr Garcia

[@DukeRaul]

Jerry hadn't moved so much on stage in years... that Jerry smile. This is so good!!!! Thanks!!!! 🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😁

[@dreamkane]

Jerry loved great precision sections so much. This is fabulous.

[@johnmitton8492]

So much fun watching Jerry smile and dance with music. Oh my I miss him, but his music and mystec live in my heart. There are leads I could listen to for hour upon hour. Jerry brought me a gift that will always be with me.

[@outlawdaddy7305]

Wow Jerry is dancing!

[@arlenmargolin1650]

[@scotthelfer278]

THIS IS SUCH A GREAT VIDEO.. THANKS FOR POSTING IT. I HAVE WATCHED MANY TIMES IN THE PAST YEARS... LOVE JERRY & RUBEN AND THE BAND

[@LL-bl8hd]

The amount of legendary musicians this man played with is incredible: Ornette Coleman, Branford Marsalis, Santana, CSN&Y, Bruce Hornsby, Ruben Blades, and I'm sure many more I'm forgetting or don't know about!

[@MrMarckeedee]

WOW! And Celia Cruz at the very end. Unreal. Had no idea Jerry jammed with Ruben Blades and shared the stage with the greatest Diva of Latin music Celia . RIP to both Jerry and Celia Cruz. Your music will live forever.

[@quartzimaging]

Rarely see Jerry any more animated than this. Looks like they all had fun this night!

[@hectormendez3572]

This is another example of what Salsa music is and the possiblitys of what can be done with any other type of music.Case in point Jerry Garcia, who is of spanish decent and plays blues & rock music fits right in with the Ruben Blades band. For all of you out there who may not be familar with " Salsa," well before there was any rock & roll , funk, or pop music there was was Salsa a music with roots that go back over a 100 yrs.

[@insomniagfx]

I love seeing Jerry in these unexpected musical settings! He brings so much joy to the party

[@michaeljannicelli1200]

Always good to see the Messiah, aka Jerry

[@garystraus9755]

Saw Ruben Blades with his band great show , great voice and fabulous musicians. The way Ruben Bladus honors. Jerry is very, very humbling and honored. Great song great show I wish I was there.

[@jcolterh]

Love seeing jerry having a great time.

[@Bridgeknapek]

Thank Lolo this is what I needed 🤗💋🤗💋

[@vikingo1013]

Even though it was 25 years ago, it sounds fresh an alive. Ruben Blades one greatest salsa/world music musicians of all times brings on the late great Jerry Garcia who shows his latin roots all the way. Thanks Lolo. PS: and Ralph Irizarry was skinny wao! long time ago.

[@ralphruocco3013]

Garcia should of done more of these. He was great !

[@kingrobert1st]

Can't help but get up and dance to this!

[@EliCosper85]

[@andrewptob]

Was going to ask that. Thought that was him.

[@LaszloMeszaros88]

have to give thanks to ya putting this out there...i didnt know, made my day and then some!

[@katmandew2152]

Good love , great work . Jerry pokes his head at the camera towards the very end, which is exactly the way he poked his head at individual fans sometimes while playing and interacting eyeball to eyeball with happy joyful listeners, while performing. Thanks.

[@bustan44]

I can't believe I've never seen this before. I thought I'd seen all things Jerry!

[@JayColbe]

Jerry was soo happy, I miss those days

[@briva]

I never saw this or knew about it until now

[@jesamani75]

well most of the musicians from this band are puerto rican but ruben blades is from panama,and this song was writen by a cuban musician named juan formell from a group called los van van,but this type of music is a mix of soouth african rhythms with latin feel.

[@yellowdog2181]

God Jerry looks great , what a sparkle !

[@albertmiller3082]

Garcia sizzles! Yes!!! 👍🏻

[@cjnav7832]

Gives new meaning to, 'Spanish Jam'

[@agentsmith5514]

AWESOME

[@austrynicot1969]

Hi people I love this song. Just ask yourself why we can comment on this song but not on pete el conde rodriguez song Pueblo latino. It the same message to our Latin countries with the racial of America. Let listen to what these great singers say and the youth of today better wake up.

[@jamiemusella2688]

The Conga player also played with the Allman Brothers.❤️

[@adrianscottburns]

wow the ending of this gets nutty

[@MrMarckeedee]

Celia Cruz!!!!! Tito puente!!! and others fill the stage at very end. What an amazing show this must have been

[@bob733333]

Lucky people.

[@alexijo24]

Ruben Blades is the author of "El Cantante"....a great song performed by Hector Lavoe* (* one of the best salsa singer of all the times...they call him litterally "Cantante de los cantantes..Singer of all the singers) Great to know about this live collaboration

[@hitmanmillan7063]

My favorite Ruben Blades Song and it speaks about what's happen now in Baltimore This song is for you Baltimore

[@finarollerz]

Originally by los van van, still my fav version.

[@PatDog949]

Love this! Jerry is having so much fun and rips the lead to shreds!! Puerto Rican Music?

[@streamline2001]

It's salsa. Ruben is actually from Panama.

[@arlenmargolin1650]

Most people don't realize this but Jerry Garcia really wanted to start a psychedelic Mambo band but had trouble convincing everyone that there would be a future in psychedelic rumba and the sort but if Jerry had his way he would have been jamming along with trumpets and marimbas but chances are this could have been just a dream I had one night

[@cosmonaut9942]

That's cool even if it was a dream. Great dream. Jerry's leads sometimes sounded like horns to me.

[@christopherfarrell]

wow

[@jackiemanuel]

still missing you jerry

[@jacktaylor6067]

Is Mark Quinones from the Allman Brothers band one of the percussionists?

[@jackstarr4726]

Jerry gave that tune the balls it had been lacking up until his solo. You could see it really woke everybody up!

[@xeviatope69]

No veas como esta de animao el teclista!!!!!! Esto si que es disfrutar tocando!! ENVIDIA SANA!!! Estoy haciendo mis tumbaos con la darbuka porque no tengo congas en casa sino......como la estaria liando!!! hahahah gracias por este temazo!!

[@squaregrouperx]

Jerry looked like he really liked being part of the background rhythm for once. He was there for fun, and not to be the star of the show.

[@philtaylor2387]

I wish Jerry would have cut loose more often w the deaf and jgb

[@Cavemanfbs1]

Jerry shreds man

[@yardarm5]

I think jerry blew all the power out of the spiritual section

[@philtaylor2387]

I wish jerry would have played with that edge and joy more often w the boys

[@jazzypaul75]

The amount of talent on this stage is stupefying. It REALLY speaks volumes about Jerry’s talent that not only does he keep up, but he absolutely shines on a tune he likely never played, in a style that he rarely if ever played.

[@ScarlettFire341]

how did Jer happen into this ?

[@kimhumphrey2476]

@Burr Anderson One of the things i love about Jerry is that he didn't acknowledge politics. esp in conjunction with music.

jerrys tone though...let's just say it's not exactly as crisp as his 70s sound.

[@staggerlee4979]

I lived in LA and watched this back then. I remember thinking why doesn't Jerry look this happy in the Dead? I don't think he enjoyed the company of his bandmates that much. Maybe that's why he preferred to shoot smack alone.

Jerry didn't shoot, you moron. imagine posing as a fan and being so ignorant lol
