Was/am a dead fan since the late 70's. "Uncle Jerry is talking to me"
I am old school with Europe '72 being my favorite album.
I loved to listen to them live and hear how they would weave a pattern of sound in the jams. IMO people who 'hate' the Dead are looking for a song with a melody they can listen on the radio and sing along for 3 minutes. They don't appreciate the artistry of the atmosphere of sound the Dead created.
Also loved listening to them give hints as to what the next song would be in the middle of a jam. Then, segue into the new song and just when you thought they were done, wham, back into the original song.
Is there anything better than
China Cat / I know You Rider
Not Fade Away / Goin' Down the Road
Help On The Way / Slipnot! / Franklins Tower
Scarlet Begonias / Fire on the Mountain
Saint Stephen / Eyes of the World
Estimated Prophet / Eyes of the World
???
