Thanks, man! This is one of those songs that was much more alive when they did it in concert.

People, don't hate them; respect them. These guys are/were geniuses. They figured out how to make money off of stoned hippies.

An audio cure for insomnia. 'Scuse me while I have a snorgasm.  No amusement of the muse with this music.

"Touch of Grey" is a horrible song. This is incredibly mellow, but at least I can listen to it without screaming and pulling my hair out.

So far...some of the members of GD have followed suit with the album title. At least I think they went upward.

Good memories from back in the day. Had a couple of 'special' plants Althea and Bertha named after Grateful Dead songs. They definitely enhanced some of the road trips to see the Dead!

Great song!!! If it said Clapton played everyone would love it. I love it that the haters can't see a joke when it smacks them in the face! Seriously,is it so hard to understand the joke when a "psychedelic" band puts out an album with disco themed cover art ?

...and, duh, "the Dead" Go to Heaven....uh, get it?   

Go RP!

I think it's more important to not let the mindless, drug induced acceptance of this band continue any further.

I'll give the Deadheads their due - they were / are loyal almost to a fault.  I just never got it myself.  The Dead sound like that teenage garage band down the street practicing on Sunday afternoon - cluttered, uninspiring, and downright boring.
