This song got a lot of hate when it first came out, from people who had a fixed idea in their mind of what THEIR Grateful Dead sounded like. I'm sorry, they were just wrong. The Dead could play and did play whatever they wanted to, and anybody who tried to place a limit on that just didn't get it. "Shakedown Street" is The Dead, no ifs ands or buts. And check out this Deadhead miracle: My first Dead show was in southern California, in the soccer field at Cal State Dominguez Hills. 18 years later, I got a T-shirt FROM THAT VERY CONCERT in a thrift store in Oklahoma City. (I hadn't gotten an official shirt at the concert, because I bought two tie-dies in the parking lot on the way in.) My wife couldn't understand why I was so freaked when I found it, she just thought I'd lost my damn mind in the men's shirts aisle.

Its been done, for sure. Probably not by anyone most of us have heard of, also not likely as a main sample that would be easily picked out anyways.

@ajschroetlin21964 жыл бұрын
I like to ask people a musical question. If you were stuck on a deserted island and could only listen to one artist or band for the rest of your life, who would it be? My answer is Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead. The variety is insane, from bluegrass to blues, funk to jazz. Sometimes slow and sometimes fast tempos. A little bit of everything. Jerry's side projects; Reconstruction, Legion of Mary, Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band, Old and In the Way, and Jerry Garcia Band all sound very different. From each other, and from the Dead. You'd probably like the Jerry Garcia Band a lot. Like going to church. ;) Check out "Brothers and Sisters" from 9/1/1990. It's on the KZfaq. If you want Grateful Dead funk at it's finest, check out the live version of "Dancing In The Streets" from Cornell 1977. Absolutely amazing. People often use the phrase "Rabbit Hole" to describe one's introduction to a new catalog of music. Jerry's music goes as deep as anyone, dating back to music made popular in the late 1800's! Songs so old that the author is unknown.

I know you hear this a million times from Dead Heads, but you gotta go with the live version man. Studio Dead does not capture this band in their greatest form. Even the Dead know their studio work _attempted_ , mostly to no avail, to capture their live sound as best as they could. Their studio work is more of a like an advertisement for the songs as opposed to the song itself. The song itself is heard in a live setting with the band. It is a living, breathing spirit and energy that they tap into when they're actually playing the songs. Always changing, never the same way twice. That is what gives you the best of the Grateful Dead. The best versions of every single song they ever wrote and recorded were done in a live show.

So true. Everything you wrote is so true. Since 1978 I have been checking these guys out, and I've been to so many shows I've lost count. Everything you just said Is Right on the money.

@STSGuitar163 жыл бұрын
@@foundatlanta Well, Mr. Charlie, I think I must agree with you there, Shakedown is absolutely one of the better studio Dead songs for sure. Songs from American Beauty and Workingman's Dead aside, Shakedown Street is definitely a solid studio track. I'll throw Help->Slip (but not Franklin's Tower) on there as being good studio tracks for the band as well.
