i wish this would happen . cats or run for the roses id be sooo hyped for :D

or Rubin and Cherise!

@@robertnoble6956 I second that emotion

Heresy.......but this is better than Rat Dog, Dead & Co. or Phil and Friends

@@markcjaffe Exactly. Weir would butcher it like everything else.

I went to 4848 festival in WV and Melvin was my favorite performance of the fest. They played 530-7 and the whole show was fire. John Densmore was on sax

Phillip, pardon my uninformed question please: Is JGB Jay Geils Band?

@@LFGanoBufRust, Jerry Garcia Band.

@@james_walrus - Thank you for filling me in and nicely too; I should have been able to glean Jerry Garcia from "context". As many bands as I have followed/listened to/gone to the concerts, Grateful Dead just hasn't been on my experience list. I am well aware of the quality JG and the Dead produce, but for some reason I never dug into them deeply like I have some/several. My loss. I am just beginning to however, so I have all their work(s)/art/music/performances to look forward to. I really appreciate your NOT calling me a dumb**ss from the beginning/silly question. Best Regards, LFGano (BuffRust) P.S. What is one of YOUR favorite JGB albums that I should pay attention to? And/or any Grateful Dead fav's that ought to be at the top of my list? Muchas Gracias

@@LFGanoBufRust You're welcome! Your first guess was not a bad one. And I'm glad you're on a musical discovery voyage. I'm not sure what to recommend as far as good albums go. There are so many. It's truly an embarrassment of riches. I would suggest, instead, that you take a look at the personnel listings on the band's albums and see who else they've played alongside. That'll take you some interesting places.

there is no bertha, they were playing franklins tower and threw in a little AB

@@aaronkahn5555 12:55

Never can! lmao Ive been to like 10 shows and havent been able to hear him once

yep, the bass is nearly absent. booo

Robert Noble we are so used to Phil Lesh’s bass being so in front of the mix , love Oteil , but the need to turn up the bass in the crowd speakers....we crave bass bombs and if you’re going to play The Dead....Proper Bass volume is critical....🙏🎸

Joseph Mendozza saw D&C in ‘16 Pavillion and don’t think I heard him once the whole show. Hell almost everything he plays you can’t hear him must be nice just to get by not being heard

It comes forward on really good headphones and speakers, but yeah, give the bassman some mo'

Look for the dial, button, or setting that says "BASS" on your stereo device and then turn it UP !!! Simple dude !! lol

Yep

blue sky and franklins tower mix so well. check out dickie betts- franklins tower jam or the allman brothers versions of franklins tower they are great

Patrick Moran Jennifer hartswick is on saxophone from trays band Erica is a misspelling for Eric krasnoe on lead guitar

To make it a bit clearer Jennifer Hartswick plays trumpet and sings and have played with Trey A.. Should also mention drummer Jay Lane who has played for years with Bob Weir in Ratdog and this fall with Wolfbros..

Can't forget Jay played in Primus.

Wouldn't be much of phil and friends without phil lol

Guitarist on right is Eric Krasnos, musical drummer (good description) is Jay Lane

Melvin Seals is on those sweet keys. Many many years in Jerry Garcia Band and JGB. Rule of thumb: If Melvin is there, something good is happening!

Oteil Burbridge - Bass (Allman Bros./ D&C) , Melvin Seals - Keys (JGB), Eric Krasno - Guitar [the fender looking one] (Soulive/Lettuce) , John Kadlecik - Guitar/Vocal (Dark Star Orchestra), Jay Lane - Drums(RatDog) , Jennifer Hartswick - Trumpet/Vocals( Trey Anastasio Band), and Weedie Braimah - Percussion (Not Sure)

Jay Lane also played with Primus which is fantastic I must say.

Amen!!!

Yes nice to get rid of inauthentic would-be Dead musicians like Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzman and Mickey Hart. What do they know about Grateful Dead music....

@@bodhiheeren just cuz they know the music doesn't mean any of the 3 play it well anymore

maybe we should just enjoy what we enjoy and not turn everything into a pissing match

@@IgnatiusChinaski That is ofc something subjective. I for one feel all three play it quite excellently and have found just the exact right band in Deadco.. But what I was objecting to is the statement that people who never played in GD is more 'true' to the music than the original members (or long time member in the case of Mickey Hart.) But if anyone feel that way and it makes them happy.....

douglas jardine absolutely love that Silver Sky.

@@MrBlazerdude7 its a shit guitar man muddy and shitty listen to the alembic in comparison YOU HAVE TOO MUCH FUN BEING INTO SHIT SOUND!!

you need to chill big time

Stan Esposito Every PRS I’ve played sounds generic and dull. Can’t stand them. Just my opinion of course. You want a good strat that isn’t a fender, look at Grosh and Mario Martin. Very consistent and excellent always

@@INT_Based I've always wanted to like PRS stuff becuase they are beautiful but I've never really had one I played speak to me.

Not when Krasno plays it.

@@INT_Based how many have you played and are you playing the SE or S2 line or the core line? i have a santana core and it is leaps and bounds better than my les paul or my strat

yes it is

Probably because Mayer puts more bums in the seats.

Maybe because JM is MUCH better.

Scomelbasses bob weir famously detest the Jerry “clones”. He doesnt like playing with the guys who mimick jerry 100%.

@@MrBlazerdude7 And Mayer is certainly no Jerry clone. I'm not a big fan of Mayer as a person, but his ability can't be denied. He's a fantastic player.

Kevin Borchers you know why, Bobby wants to be Jerry, and this is coming from a HUGE Bob Weir fan. I just don’t get it. If I had a choice between seeing Dead & CO or Oteil I would rather see this

Oh please! She has a really great voice, but John K does just fine with his own voice.

@@quartzimaging John K is a great a guitarist as he is a bad singer.

Scomelbasses I agree I would love them to play more originals with this great band

he signed a compete only clause.

He's a working musician. It's a good gig.

Once you taste Prime it's hard to go back to Choice.

He'll tuck Dead into his hip pocket and go into a Miles/Weather Report phase...

What does that tell you about the reach of the Dead's music? Not everyone's cup of tea, but those who dig it, can't get enough. That's always been the Dead's trip, not for everyone but those on "the bus" wanted to tape every show. Turns out the old hippies were great marketing geniuses, if you give "it" away, they will want more!

@@rperkins723 This. And not to mention the whole genre molded by the GD inspires these musicians along with the GD themselves to play their songs differently each time they're performed, adding in their own unique influence, improvisation and the audiences influence to the performers each time.

It's Jerry's fault really, for being so awesome and for liking cigarettes, heroin, cocaine, and cheeseburgers so much. Jerry could still be playing but we're stuck with John Mayer and fake Jerry.

These are both great and valid points and I totally understand the approach but instead of covering all these songs that have literally been played thousands of times, take the influence and inspiration of the GD(and music like it) to create new songs that have a GD feel but still stuff that no one has ever heard before. Yes this is a more risky(and less lazy) move since you're not guaranteed to sell out shows but with the caliber of these musicians I can almost guarantee it would be something special. And then the cycle continues since that band then inspires more musicians which again creates more music no one has ever heard. With this current approach there has to come a time when people stop playing GD songs and then what? Can you imagine if the GD just decided to cover all the bands before them and not create anything new? I'm honestly not trying to bash anyone or start arguments since I too love the GD and thoroughly enjoying playing their songs with my fellow musicians but I have a more jazz mindset which means music should just keep evolving as the next generation of musicians just takes what they heard and adds to it. Just my thoughts :)

@@evoshandor11 Bill Kreutzman had a great take on it after the 50th anniversary shows- The music and the Grateful Dead are eternal, but that's only for this version of the GD, the music will live on.
