The History of the Grateful Dead

[@austingrice5386]

they had a massive cult following but never gained mainstream popularity which is why they are amazing they have true followers not fake fans

[@writer125]

That was the whole idea of the band. There was nothing like touring the band all over the country. They were the best.

[@twentiethcenturyamericanma4518]

Austin Grice living' grateful, almost dead

[@Marcissus]

Hell yeah

[@bamacopeland4372]

Man I couldn't put it any better brother.

[@njphishphan]

This band has made my life better for over 20 years. I love it.

[@tippimail1]

I'm 73 and have followed them since i was 23.WALSTIB.

[@charlesearle8414]

The Dead were among the most unusual bands in history. With most bands the best work is in the studio albums, with the live shows often just to promote albums or draw attention. With them it was the opposite. The best examples of their work was always in the live shows. Their show on May the 8th, 1977 at Cornell is a better reflection of the band than any of their albums. The concerts of the Dead and even some of their tribute or cover bands have a deep atmosphere and feel about them that you don't get anywhere else. You see Dead emblems in random spots everywhere and hardly anyone knows what they are, it's like a friendly trippy cult. The Dead seemed to just play for the fun of it. They played because they wanted to, not because it would make them a lot of money. In the words of Bill Graham, "They're not the best at what they do, they're the only ones that do what they do."

Charles Earle the GD aren't in the music business, they are in the transportation business. Mickey Hart

[@boogerpresley6616]

Grateful dead isn't just a band, but a force of energy to feed from. Changed my life forever .

[@owennandkylie2379]

jerry would find it so awesome that people still care about him to this day. It would just blow his mind if only he knew how much we still love him, we will never let him out of our lives! ☮️⚡️

[@garrisonkozlowski9267]

The most underrated band ever!

[@donsylvester1107]

Underrated by everyone but their fans and musicians.

[@sdaniel724]

Garrison Kozlowski overrated and boring

[@Actomain]

By far, this is the best video on this channel. Even tho they did mispronounce AOXOMOXOA and some other things ;)

[@blackoperation14]

Mojo can you please do a top 10 dead songs (but live songs, not just the albums)

[@chordpackerrex8289]

Eddie Marz I made one it doesn't have many views but I think it's pretty good

[@EclecticoIconoclasta]

i support that also

[@noogie3784]

Playing in the Band!

[@stevenstakelin3556]

One of the best bands ever

[@mumbojumbo123456789]

We need a top 10 Dead songs! The dead are one of Americas greatest bands!

[@almogchaim7943]

They named themselves the grateful dead by pointing to something random in the dictionary

[@wangson]

Live Dead really is their best recording (in my estimation)...some of the Dick's Picks are great too. And "Two From the Vault" is terrific....so is "The Closing of Winterland" - this is probably my favourite these days.

[@debbieclancy1735]

Thank you ☺️ everyone I’m so honored and happy to share lifetime with you all. Namaste’ Much Love to all 💜💃🎶🤙🏼☮️💜💜🥳💜💃

[@chriszapfe37]

Terrapin station medley is a fantastic song

[@curtheciscokid]

Mojo I'm pretty sure the count is past 2300 live shows. Please do multiple top 10's with this band. I would like top 10 iconic live shows.

[@wangson]

top ten grateful dead shows? that'd be pretty amazing!

[@twentiethcenturyamericanma4518]

This is pretty basic yet fairly accurate bio. God Bless the Grateful Dead

[@KingCrimson-420]

The music never stopped with dead and company

[@NellieKAdaba]

That would be great, because I love them too

[@christopherlovett7685]

Should’ve been mentioned that “other band” named the warlocks would later become the velvet underground

[@jpmcgrath9591]

Top Ten Dead songs PLEASE!!!

[@garrisonkozlowski9267]

you forget to mention the albums skull & roses and europe '72

[@almogchaim7943]

I think they were only talking about studio albums. Those are live albums, right?

[@wangson]

i think you're right....though, "live dead" is obviously recorded (mostly) live.

[@timlazar2821]

do Top 10 Grateful Dead songs! if you can do just 10.

[@chordpackerrex8289]

Tim Lazar I did one on my channel if you really want to watch one its not that good though

[@jonlund5545]

Can't be 10 there's too many to list.

[@NellieKAdaba]

Great rock band

[@Marcissus]

The greatest band in all the land

[@JackSudduth]

wheres the top 10 dead songs

[@tgproductions97]

Funny how nobody had any idea about what was coming in the few years following this videos creation. It would’ve been more funny if this video somehow predicted the rise of John Mayer within the Dead community 😂

[@ultron1809]

Groovy, hippies unite!!M

[@NellieKAdaba]

I also love Velvet Underground. One day they will add a video about Velvet Underground.

[@metalliholic]

Yes!! I would love a queen video!

[@drunkpunkism]

Creedence Clearwater Revival?

[@tinobeltran6964]

I second the motion!!!

[@WatchMojo]

here's Queen: watch?v=diy_J6o0qgQ

[@metalliholic]

Thanks!!!

[@conorbulger6576]

please do a top 10 please

[@chordpackerrex8289]

conor bulger I did one on my channel if you really want to watch one

[@robsgirl6465]

conor bulger : How can anyone make a Top 10? All their songs are awesome. All their shows are AWESOME. How can you choose just 10? And even if you could, how could you put them in numerical order? It'd be easier to stack BBs on top of one another!!!

[@jonlund5545]

conor bulger try and keep it to just 10 good luck

[@seanmcc09]

0:50 RIP Pig

[@WatchMojo]

Voila: watch?v=diy_J6o0qgQ

[@Sleeveusalone]

Why haven't Dead and co. made a studio album yet?

[@gregoryswift9573]

Daniel Cline whos gonna write the lyrics not Barlow and Hunter? They could do a memoir type thing though. I dont see it happening though

[@skovesk8s]

"Aoxomoxoa" is pronounced "Ox- o -mahx - o -ah"

[@PhsykoOmen]

Its odd but they got alot of merch and such that still cycles around here in Japan. I've never seen it anywhere else

[@michaelpeternixon]

Crazy Horse Saloon in Aomori City 👌

[@_grateful_zen_4515]

You mean RON 'PIGPEN" McKernan. Not Rob, but cool vid ;)

[@masonwhite2829]

Do allman brothers

[@scottreynolds8423]

I've done psychs and I still don't get it. But tool.

[@Toydude1984]

Velvet Underground?

[@ZombieJesusHunter]

You know what Jerry Garcia said when the drugs wore off? "Boy, this band sucks"

[@gregoryswift9573]

ZombieJesusHunter okaaaay?

[@george.s.8491]

“Slow to get back on the road”? 😂

[@scruffyp9480]

They have albums...?

[@Brolyy07]

[@cecillunsford3679]

I saw the dead with pigpen history

[@bryantrogers5596]

[@davidgiles6856]

top GD tunes is a matter of opinion, in my opinion. For a great site aggregating fan opinion (with archive.org links), check out: headyversion.com/

[@theosutton4022]

Those were some pretty bad clips

[@gutmuncher1990]

first

[@Bluecollar711]

I really think those what the grateful Dead represented it's so bigger more passionate then what the woman doing the voice over of their history could even fathom her wording was quick and way too far short of having the intelligence to even have the legal opportunity of representing what the grateful Dead will always stand for. My stomach is sick listening to her she hid all the truthful points with no self-regard of the background of each in individual life of mental passion self well-being of being in a lifestyle of so much with so many hundreds of thousands of followers it wouldn't even be comprehendible to make a voiceover from somebody that had no regards to anything of what it was all about

[@Jbv236]

mojo can you do top ten Trump rally EPIC moments! Thank you.

[@sportspicks799]

Donna was so awful

[@misternebojsa]
