[Advent_Child]

Mines gotta be beat it on down the line. I listened to it on the way to work on my first job and the road I always took was called section line.

[callmesabrina]

I dont listen to them...
sorreh <_<

what about Jethro Tull... Thick as a Brick >_>

[DrPheelgood]

Mine is Touch of Grey... but I only know about four Grateful Dead songs, and only that one by name.

[DrPheelgood]

Jethro Tull is awesome. I need to listen to more of their work.

[dontjuststandthere]

[dontjuststandthere]

make a new thread for it >_>

[dontjuststandthere]

touch of grey.. their one song that everybody got

[duzitickle]

i have too many favs.
i was lucky enough to catch quite a few of their shows back in the day..
so, when i hear certain songs, they take me right back to the concert/parking lot/friends i was with at the time.
its such a nice vacation from the evils of the world to sit back, eyes closed..
and just reminisce about how everyone was kinfolk right then and there.
the love for everyone was sooo deep.
i miss those days.
there was also alot of good conversation.

one of my most favs:  ripple.
always fantastic in the live show.

Let me rephrase: I don't knowingly know any songs (if that makes sense).

Also, I can't listen to that right now. My niece is sleeping in the next room, and I have no headphones nearby.

[duzitickle]

ahhhh... i gotcha.
its truckin'.


jerry and co sang awesome songs.
this particular song has one of their best lines:
"what a long strange trip its been."
just sorta sums up alot of things in life, ya know?



hope the niece gets a good nap.

[dontjuststandthere]

heh, i followed them for years and still havent heard all their songs.
i used to know some bootleggers.. back at the shows,
you could buy a taper ticket and set up your equipment.. then record the concert.
thats why theres so many bootlegs out there.
and id rather have the bootlegs than studio versions any day.
(if you run across any, grab them.... well worth it if the quality is good.)
god, their shows were..... quite an experience.


also:  every grateful dead song gives me goosebumps, i think.
Oo

Fire on the mountain.

[Ship0fFooLsGD]

Oh boy... I do not even know where to begin. 

If someone is reading this who has never heard Grateful Dead before, i'd say jump on the bus. Go to YouTube or archive.org and listen to any of their music, and soon your world will change forever. They are nothing like you have ever seen or heard before. Trust me.

Right now I am listening to 6/17/1975 @ Winterland. It's an incredible show. The Peggy-O is hautingly beautiful... Jerry's words and guitar speak to me like nothing else does.

[PresidentOfTheAVClub]

Laid back in an old saloon, with a peso in my hand,
Watchin flies and children on the street,
And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I smile,
There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet.

And it's three days ride from bakersfield and I don't know why I came.
I guess I came to keep from payin dues.
So instead Ive got a bottle and a girl whos just fourteen,
And a **QWOP** good case of the mexicali blues. yeh!

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose,
When the devil wants to take it all away?
Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze,
Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today.

She said her name was billy jean and she was fresh in town.
I didn't know a stage line ran from hell.
She had raven hair, a ruffled dress, a necklace made of gold,
All the french perfume you'd care to smell.

She took me up into her room and whispered in my ear,
Go on, my friend, do anything you choose.
Now Im payin for those happy hours I spent there in her arms,
With a lifetimes worth of the mexicali blues.

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose,
When the devil wants to take it all away?
Cherish well your thoughts, and keep a tight grip on your booze
Cause thinkin and drinkin are all I have today.

And then a man rode into town, some thought he was the law.
Billy jean was waitin when he came.
She told me he would take her, if I didn't use my gun,
Id have no one but myself to blame.

I went down to those dusty streets, blood was on my mind.
I guess that stranger hadnt heard the news
Cause I shot first and killed him, lord, he didn't even draw
And he made me trade the gallows for the mexicali blues.

Is there anything a man don't stand to lose
When he lets a woman hold him in her hands?
He just might find himself out there on horseback in the dark
Just ridin and runnin across those desert sands.
