yeah jerry, sing it! 

also: 6 weeks til game of thrones season 3 

considering they were singing about an extinct animal, the lyrics ironically fit.  lots of negative comments, ok so you guys don't like this song or the Dead...it is a good folk story, though...

As usaual the dead harp on a single theme with random twangling behind.  PLEASE STOP!

ok ok I get it..you don't want to be murdered...enough already.

The first song I ever heard by The Dead was "Touch of Grey," and I was completely straight and sober at the time. After that, I heard "Saint of Circumstance" when I was stoned as a goat, and I recorded it onto a compilation cassette and listened to the thing until the tape snapped. It ruined my cassette player, but by then, all those songs were ingrained in my brain.  Which is probably why I love The Grateful Dead and can listen to pretty much anything they ever put out.

If you listen close to this, you can hear the audience squeal with delight.

Same here.

What Ziakut said. I once made the statement that The Grateful Dead were, IMO, the World's most mediocre band. To be fair, I don't have any positive memories associated with Dead songs to help color my opinion. I'm sure I have favorites that others can only shake their heads at as well.

I suppose it isn't fair for me to criticize the 'Dead'...since I'm not a fan and don't 'get it'...but I really dislike the mediocrity that seems to accompany everything I hear from them. This tune isn't bad...just not that interesting.

 "600 lbs. of sin." Keep up the wolf theme!

Yes, a great album.  I was just listening to this album the other night on my old nakamichi...on a great old tape from an excellent turntable...all pops and hisses for that warm fuzzy feeling.

I like the Dead, but this version of this track isn't worth any air play.

Had this in my head all day yesterday... Thanks!
