the grateful dead version of "tangled up in blue" "shady grove" "crazy fingers" "the music never stoped" and "minglwood blues" i like all the albums but i especially like "shakedown street" "blues for allah" and "terripin station"

and

Ship O' Fools

 

Shakedown Street07/061987

 

wow. St. Stephen not on the list?

 

That is really a hard one since the Dead is my favorite band ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........all of them i guess since i cant only pick one

 

Casey Jones is wicked... but Truckin' does it for me. That's one song that lifts my spirits instantly...every time. It makes me feel so warm inside... so that one's got my vote

 

psshhh i cant pick one ... thats pretty much torture....

 

haha

 

hahah!! well i never! lol

 

1. Scarlet Begonias... especially Scarlet Fire versions!

2. Box of Rain (for the poll)

 

I think my personal favorites are "Tenessee Jed" or "Big River"

 

well i like all of them

my favorite year is '77 or '78, Jerry is just amazing and Keith peaked

and from those years i like to hear: deal, the music never stoopped, jack straw, sugaree, fire on the mountain, morning dew......

if anyone is interested heres a link to a killer 1978 show http://www.archive.org/details/gd78-05-07.sbd.vernon.8327.sbeok.shnf

the jack straw opener is an adventure

 

Can we get some better title than these. How bout Franklin, Help, Promise Land, Cumberland Blues, Monkey and the Engineer, China Cat, and the list goes on. Not that all of this are written by the dead or to say that the songs you picked are not great, they are just to well known by people who do not truly love and appreciate exactly what the Dead represent.

Not to mention it changes all the time

 

I am 100% offended that Unbroken Chain is not on that list. Theoretically the poll should be wiped clean and we should start over.
