The Dolphins
Written by Fred Neil
Sometimes I think about
Saturday's child
And all about the times
When we were running wild
This old world may never change
The way it's been
And all the ways of war
Can't change it back again
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
I'm not the one to tell this world
How to get along
I only know that peace will come
When all hate is gone
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
Sometimes I think about
Saturday's child
And all about the times
When we were running wild
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
This old world may never change
This old world may never change

It's hard to remember how beautiful things can be; amidst so much pain: When you hear the voice of a friend ring clear after they are long gone; that's when you know you're there.

Fred Neil Recorded his best version of this classic live in Woodstock as well, I was there at a club called The Elephant with Monte Dunn on backing guitar.

Fred Neil's song is covered heartfully here. But make no mistake, the MESSAGE of love and support for FREE LIVING DOLPHINS, and our best existence being connected to and symbolized by the concept, is what we also should respect and cheer and pass around. This bunch obviously gets it, so here's hoping you will, too. Fred Neil was a free-the-dolphins activist and friend of Ric O'Barry (Dolphin Project); he passed away in the Florida Keys 20 years ago, tended to by other dolphin activist friends (mutual friends of mine).

Yep. They are maturing musically.. U still have those kick ass records they made from the 90s.. But the current day crowes are seriously playing some great music.. I favor Em more now than I ever had.. U can't just keep writing the same music over and over, to be a successful artist and have a successful career u must evolve, and Chris and the gang has evolved quite beautifully, like wine.. It only gets better

Oh great, now I got somethin in my eye.

Tim Buckley's 1969 thoughts are not so different from now. deep into the heart like the original.

[@3drugos]

Grand Finale! :-)

[@ratwang]

When the Beatles visited L.A. (Capital Records) back in '64, they were they could have any and all the records they wanted. They only wanted one LP: Fred Neil's.

[@platter1000]

yeah right...prove it

[@xenorasmusson2462]

Cool to see this - seemed to lumber, too slow on early chord changes, maybe they leanred it that day, not tripping. But alas, Chris doesn't quite tell this story like Fred could, but it ends on a high note jam - seems like the same approach they took on She Talks to Angels. Still like.

[@scottmateodavies6591]

agreed

[@melissaridner8857]

@ELMASLAD, He is saying Dolphins

[@WhateverHappenedToFun]

"Until the Freeze is a 2009 album by blues-rock band The Black Crowes"... There was time when they were young that Black Crowes were an Hard Rock band, a fist in your face and not these mellow and sweet crooners.

[@meganbannister100]

It's called growing up.

[@RobbaKeef]

That is the Tim Buckley arrangement not Fred Neil lol

[@ELMASLAD]

Great cover of Fred Neil's classic but WHAT is he saying in place of the word 'Dolphins' ? Savage ending too.

[@hermosafish]

Its no use. If you have to explain they will never know anyway.

[@stanniehinn]

so good, only mr neil does it better.

[@robertwood4681]

And Tim Buckley

[@tim3bandit57]

Yep, then they got old and fat and Chris Robinson decided he was going to be John Lennon/Jesus Hippie man.
