Sugaree (Grateful Dead)

[@1201alarm]

I just wish I lived next door - imagine hearing this coming through the appartment wall?!

[@jgarcia1ful]

Simply Beautiful!!!!! In so many ways.....! What a gem to have discovered these two magnificent Ladies who both ooze endless amounts of talent!!!! I could listen to this over and over, hmmm., just Like I did in the old days with the dead rocking my cassette player in my car/van going from one venue to another,,,,, Be Well Ladys and Peace!!!!

[@billstoneman6903]

I have only discovered these wonderful musicians in the last couple of months. Many commenters have attested to what a pleasure they are. Just one to add one thing I'm not sure that I've seen: The chemistry between Elle and Toni is such a delight to see. Their banter suggests such fondness for working and playing with each other.

[@mayflowerlash11]

There's something about Toni's guitar picking that makes it irresistibly appealing. It's hard to find the right words. What about "tuneful"? This is an inadequate description. She's good.

[@sharondotson6219]

Her guitar playing makes me addicted to watch these videos. She’s musical to the core and like that guitar seems like a part of her being! :) love thee guys!

Toni is a phenomenal tasteful minimal guitarist. Love every note she plays how when why with feeling

[@robertvanruyssevelt7159]

@@JasonCunliffe Tasteful is a description I like. There are literally millions of guitarists - thousands of good ones - it comes down to personal preference and I love Toni's sound.

[@timothyreilly4499]

Here's the first use of "Coffee Cheers" - according to Reina! See the intro to "Save Me - Aimee Mann" (Thus Spoke Zarathustra - literary reference for Reina!)

[@vonrap]

Even though I'm 70, I still play drums in my band and I can recognize talented musicians like Toni and Reina as true. It is a pleasure to listen to them, while they delight us with rare pieces of absolute skill with voice and guitar, I am sure that if we gave them a box of biscuits, these two phenomena would be able to play with that too! They are really good artists, in this world of fake musicians who play accompanied by MP3s, overdubs and embellishments in the control room, they don't, they are good at them and in a disconcerting way. Two beautiful faces, clean of good girls, perfect voices and instruments if I were 50 years younger I would travel from Italy to the USA just to be able to play with them ...

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

How come everyone has to mention how old they are?

[@NikkoAus]

@@Jeff-jg7jh I don’t know, I’m 63 btw 😂

[@ricomcneese7029]

​@@Jeff-jg7jh probably for two reasons: One, they are already masters of their trade. It's always notable when someone with relatively few years of practice can perform like they've had a lifetime to perfect their discipline. And two: Many, if not most of their songs, are not from their generation but it's notable that, not only do they feel compelled to play them, but they honor them with a certain loyalty to the original. And they play them like they've lived them...or even wrote them themselves. I don't know if you were implying mentioning their age is problematic to you or not...but if so, maybe me explanation can offer you an alternative to frustration.

[@kurtvoigt5006]

Reina and Toni, NEVER a better duo !! And I saw this song done by the Dead in Ventura in 1985, Ventura County Fair.

[@Tastefan1]

Published on my birthday and one of my favorite songs you should let fans choose songs on their birthday if it's on a Sunday.

[@Ren-er4le]

came for the dead. stayed for the dead. good stuff, great little fills and riffs. good vocals.

[@tljtimpani]

This is the best cover of this in the history of DeadHeadedness. Two years of listening to this. Awesome.

[@phillmaf7319]

Top class...again. I first came across you two a few years ago .....going wild with recording on a busy railroad track ,dodging freight trains while recording an outdoor acoustic version of Jambalaya....Knew you were committed artists then....... Many thanks for the rich pudding of your other recordings, love n hard work. Thank you.

[@gregourmet]

Maybe it's better for their own health or personal happiness not to be superstars. Depeche Mode for example are superstars. Think of critical songs like 'Everything Counts' and what Dave Gahan said during the 101 tour (tour film): It's a permanent pressure to be excellent in every concert because fans paid a lot of money for their tickets. Everybody knows about their problems with drugs... Maybe the Reina del Cid way is the better one. It's always a pleasure to watch their videos. ☺️
