    Im sure you all know after the line, "Did it matter, does it now? Stephen would answer if he only knew how", someone screams..

    Who is it...I never found out. I kinda think its Bob
    Does anyone know for sure?

    On another note, it gives me goosebumps when I hear it...it's such a wonderful song and that break is just too cool.

    Sounds like Bobby. Was Pigpen on Aoxomoxoa? I don't recall off the top of my head. Could it have been him.

    Bob? really? I heard from a source that it was Jerry. I'm not really sure on how reliable that source is though.

    yea, pig was around then: but the girly-ness is more Bobby than Pig's ecstacy.
    I think I'll give it a new listen...

    Is it true that at one of the Grateful Dead's first shows (or maybe they were still the Warlocks) was at a bar and that they wouldnt let Bob in because he was too young.

    It was Weir,no doubt about it.I saw them play it in 1969-70.Jerry never screamed.Pig's scream was usually a short James Brown-like "Ow!",although you can hear a long one at the very end of Lovelight on Live/Dead.
    Weir's scream was in the tradition of Little Richard (Lucille),McCartney (I Saw Her Standing There),and a lot of mid-60's garage bands,usually done as a lead-in to an instrumental solo.
