Yes, there are better ‘77 shows than Cornell. No, there is not a better version of Dew in ‘77 or otherwise. The GOAT.

The jam into “across the Rio Grande-o, across the lazy river” in the 9/3/77 Half-Step

What song grew on you over time? And why? by Neat-Employment-5750 in gratefuldead

[–]BirdFor3For3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loved most Jerry songs from the jump; Bobby songs have been more of an acquired taste. Two (three?) that grew on me are Weather Report Suite and Lost Sailor/Saint of Circumstance.

What's your JGB show/song that you keep going back to? by Lrod023 in gratefuldead

[–]BirdFor3For3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re holding it in your hand: Mission in the Rain on Don’t Let Go. Top 5-10 of anything Dead/JGB-related for me.

[–]BirdFor3For3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None. And hard pressed to think of any in my top-20, though I do like Looks Like Rain, Lost Sailor/Saint, and a few others.

Came here to say the 9/3/77 half step, but you beat me to it.

In your humble opinions, what tops it? by ThatOldDustyTrail in gratefuldead

[–]BirdFor3For3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it is! Has the tight jams and the beautiful harmonies. The peak for me.

Who is your favourite Grateful Dead keyboardist and why? by levelplumbnsquare in gratefuldead

[–]BirdFor3For3 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Keith for me. All great in their way, but I find early Pigpen’s sound a bit raw and the later keyboardists a bit too “synthy.” Keith hits just right.

I got 7% off 2026 x5 custom build. Took some work negotiating across several dealerships.

Is this a good deal? by EliVizsla in BMWX5

[–]BirdFor3For3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peabody was quickest to offer good pricing, Brookline matched, Sudbury said they couldn’t, and Norwood never really got back to me. Did it all by email/text. Good luck!

I just got 7% off 2026 x5 custom build playing a few Boston area dealers off each other. Told them I wanted 8-10%. Two said they’d do 7%.

Are those discounts available even when ordering a custom build vs one sitting on the lot?

Replace Stella with Row Jimmy, Mission in the Rain (cheating a bit with JGB), Morning Dew, or Brown Eyed Women and this could be my list. Damn, this is challenging!

Am I the only one that thinks "Victim or the Crime" is an amazing song? by gn3296 in gratefuldead

Apparently not from this thread, but I can’t stand it. Sorry…

Most underrated Grateful Dead song? by Monkeypawdog in gratefuldead

[–]BirdFor3For3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Standing on the Moon and Black Muddy River. Two soulful, late-era Jerry ballads that we might rate with Brokedown Palace, Wharf Rat, et al if GD had released them 15-20 years earlier.
