None better. They made magical music together. I'm a very Grateful Dawg.

Boring music AND depressing lyrics. A winning combination.

 Yep, this isn't a patch on BB's version (was it his song, or did he cover it too?). Still, it's acceptable, and better Grateful Dawg than Grateful Dead. At least Garcia's not stoned out of his gourd and is singing in tune and coherently. Nice gittar (or is that a ukulele?) pickin', too. |

The thrill was never there for me. I guess I missed out on that party. Bummer. I wish it would get over already. Mute.

If I recall correctly, a plain black T-shirt paired with blue jeans was pretty much Jerry's standard uniform - at least it was at nearly every Dead show I ever attended. |

I love this version of the song, and this whole album is really excellent.

Well, I love it, so I guess I must be old. Don't trust anyone under thirty. |

The Garcia and Grisman album that this song came from was one of my favourites back in university. Everyone that I played it for became an instant fan.
I have never met anyone in "real life" that didn't like it.
I guess the interweb is a whole different story.
