Grateful Dead helped me battle the COVID days. I would just sit there and listen to them, specially morning dew. I feel like thanks to them those day were bearable.

This may be the greatest example of what the Grateful Dead was all about that I've ever seen in my forty years of being a deadhead. Gives me chills and makes me cry all at the same time.

If it gives you any comfort time is not linear, it's just how we perceive it. So this moment is infinite, just like that moment in 74

Don't want to brag but I was at all 5 shows. It was farewell to the wall of sound. On the fifth night, Mikey Hart rejoined the band after leaving in the wake of his father ripping off the band a few years earlier. I think I sat in the front row of the balcony most nights taping these shows on a Nakamichi tape recorder. This was before taping was allowed and we had to smuggle our gear past Winterland security. Still friends with the guys I went to these shows with. What a long strange trip indeed...

Fast forward to 2010, and I had a shit life year and somehow spent hours, just hours, listening to the Dead on archive.org and posted something about that on FB.

Smoked DMT, started getting into a bit of a panic, chaotic feelings swelling in my chest. I put this on and all my troubles melted away, just Jerry, Phil, the Boys, and me, in transcendental space for all of time. Every time the Boys would simmer down into near silence, it was like the ultimate tranquility would take hold. You can just tell they were in no rush here, nowhere to be, nowhere to go, nothing was more important than the next note that was to come from their fingertips, and giving the people a beautiful lament that I'm sure everyone in that crowd carry with them to this day. Godspeed to Jerry, Long Live The Dead, and may the universe bless you beautiful Dead Heads!

It was designed out of necessity because their entire speaker system, known as the Wall Of Sound was located behind them. It was the premier sound system of the time. Most bands sounded like garbage in big halls, so they developed this system to get over the crowd without distortion. It's pretty amazing, including the fact that each musician has his own stacks of speakers, the out of phase mics, and even a quadrophonic soundboard.

Yeah we need more people like Jerry in the world. I definitely think that the universe puts certain people in positions of entertainment or artistic influence to spread that little bit of beauty upon us because the universe knows that the majority of time on earth is spent suffering and toiling away at existence. It's the small spurts of beauty here and there that keep us going. Otherwise this would be complete hell. There's a reason not everyone can do what he did, or what others like him do. It's a thing to be cherished.

I accidentally became obsessed with the Dead recently. I blame this song, and particularly this performance of this song. The part that starts around 5:37 and particularly right around 5:47 where Jerry looks over at Phil and smiles because he's about to unleash pure magic from his guitar is one of the most delightful facial expressions I've ever seen another human being display. I am just mesmerized by all of these musicians and this song is so damn good. I'm glad they decided to cover this because as awesome as the words and theme are, I didn't much care for the original version.

Y'know? You're right. There is something ineffable about Morning Dew that makes it, somehow, more than it is. Did you know this was the first song Bonnie Dobson ever wrote? She was 18 at the time, and we all lived under the nuclear shadow of the Cold War. [Side note: Actually got to see her perform, and meet her, when we were traveling in the UK last fall. An absolutely delightful warm, open hearted, and generous woman who, by the way, is still in fine voice to this day (much to her own surprise). I don't think she exactly understands the whole Dead phenomenon, but she does appreciate that her song continues to mean a lot to many, many people who barely, if at all, know who she is.]

Practically the most powerful chord that exists in the deads music. That opening D sucks everyone in. You could hear a pin drop it’s just so Emotional it takes me places my mind didn’t think existex

It seems like this song had the same effect on the band too. Every version of this song I hear is very focused and present, no matter what year it's from.

Woodstock comes to mind when I watched the documentary of the dead. I known many bands Beatles Stones.but I never saw all the hippies yes hippies dead heads Crowd s and crowds going crazy Breaking in the fences etc. They couldn't get tickets Just watch. Remarkable This song is one of my favorite

One of the best versions of the best songs.

I saw the Dead play approximately 300 shows my wife saw over 500 shows. I miss you Jerry wish you were here my brother.

I lost count at 100, and I estimate the total as somewhere around 275. After that and all the hours of listening to the tapes, I think of this as one of the definitive versions of Morning Dew.

Sounds like it was recorded yesterday - crystal-clear sound for 1974. And a mighty performance, of course!

Man o man... what an amazing version!

Does anyone else feel like they need this song on repeat right now? It seems even more poignant with all of the covid-19 uncertainty. Just like always, Grateful Dead are here for me when I need them. 🌟

Totally agree. I'm spending a lot of time on youtube these days with the self-isolation. The music I love has saved my life in the past and it is again now. Its good to find similar minded people like you here too. It really helps with the loneliness of this crazy time.

The cycles repeat. Covert 19 is just another bunch of sorrow and bs.... and it’s clearly caused by people. Not natural. All of Jerry’s songs are about humanity. Good bad and ugly

This never gets old. Just amazing seeing Jerry looking and sounding so healthy. I love the 74 sound.

Morning Dew is still one of my favorite Jerry songs live, never fail to get lost in it's melancholic beauty...

The Grateful Dead and the Dead Heads are all my soul family! I love all of you!

There's not nearly enough video of the earlier years. It's nice to see you all are addressing that.

I don't disagree with you, but I love how spoiled we are, because we obviously compare the amount of quality audio recordings to the video library. I am so excited that we may be getting a whole lot more. more, bat, more! Cheers!

This video was an emotional rollercoaster, definitely one of the best dew sets but probably the best filmed set too...and thanks to David and the dead team for reminding us why we love the dead and why It brings us together.

Where's Bobby in this video? Heard but not seen! Yet he's not seen even for a second! He's certainly mixed in loud--much louder than usual. There always a prejudice against this most unique rhythm/almost lead guitarist who's content to be number two, without apparent ego

@@smsdr bob is kinda shown in the background of a few scene's but does not put on a show or move as much during dew sets because he plays a crucial part in the acoustics to help jerry keep rhythm and keep the whole song together, same reason for why he is mixed in louder, and you can hear each player clearer because the wall of sound is being used in '74

Probably my favorite performance of any song by any band caught on film. This whole movie is a masterpiece

This song, this version of this song, is sacred.

Where to begin.... I'll skip the 10 minute (positive) rant I have about this, to spare everyone hearing someone full of overjoyous happiness. I'll sum in it up in one sentence: Thank you David and The GDF for helping bringing this magic to the people, we all need it, in these crazy times, this is beauty at it's core!

As I sit here listening to this during this pandemic sweeping the world I can't help but shed a tear! What an appropriate song!!

That was epic. I had to listen to the last 7 minutes left of the song in the grocery store parking lot. I couldn't turn it off.

We were geared up. The Van was packed. Our smiles were without rival. We had finally decided to fuck it all and chase the Dead across the country. It was happening...and boy, there was not a higher elation to be found...Then the news broke that Jerry died. That Van stayed packed a few more weeks before we finally offloaded it. I was one bummed human...who never got to see the Dead live. All that aside, this music brings me a joy and release that no other music can. Lovin' ya!

I've been a Grateful Dead fan since the late 60's, I've seen over a hundred shows and till today I still get choked up listening to Morning Dew and so many other's. Thank goodness to video's.

I sent my 5 kids and 5 grandkids all Grateful Dead shirts with no comment attached. They all thanked me and 3 of them said they listened to the dead for the first time and liked the music. Its a start..

Yup. Sincere compassionate apologies. Those were… blessed years.

The Dead at their peak. Amazing era for them.

I loved when the Dead did their Morning Dew cover. This was amazing. For anyone wondering what it was like seeing the Grateful Dead "on", this is it. Wow!!!

a time where we put politics aside and listen to music that makes us happy. the true message of the dead is to LOVE and live in PEACE.

I was only 5 years old here but i caught them in 87 for the next 8 yrs over 150 shows with my deadhead family damn i miss all of you God Bless

So true My brother uses this metaphor all the time, and he is right. It is like a waterfall.

In 2019, after 33 years of listening to rock and pop music from the 50s-90s I thought I had heard it all....CSNY, Beatles. Who etc. etc. etc. A LONG list. I had been steadfastly ignoring GD because, frankly, I thought they were a bunch of drug-addled longhairs from California who played 30 minute songs! I do remember when JG died, but it didn't mean much to me, however sad or tragic it was, except that he had played pedal steel on Teach Your Children. What can I say....? In some ways I feel that I have discovered the first - and last - rock band. I didn't expect to ever discover anything more from this era that would be deep and moving....but I did! And let me say this, I don't believe there is anything else in that era that I can discover that will be quite as profound as the Grateful Dead.

I started going to live Dead shows in December of 72 long beach arena, great show, Dark Star. Crowd pased a inflatable alligator up to Jerry who placed it upon Keith’s piano . Anyone else remember that as crowd chanted Aligator as Jerry beamed. Classic moment. You had to be there , & I was. Still on the bus i got on that I got on that show & never got off no matter what, changed my life in a profound way forever.

I was 12 years old when their first album came out. My brother who was 5 yrs older told me to listen to it. This song reached deep inside my soul and that was it! I became a lifetime member of the family. ✌

Move over Europe 72. This just became my favorite Morning Dew.

This will always be my favorite dead tune. Jerry is filled with love and I know this because Jerry puts his entire soul out on display. The good and bad . It's all for the taking. God bless you Jerry.

Ageless......... We had such a wonderful lifetime of experiences........ and although its sometimes painful to acknowledge that those days are gone, how fortunate for us that we lived them..... and lived them well. Thank you, for those thirty years of magic!!!

The dynamism of the solo Billy years really pushed the band beyond stratospheric heights. As a human I love everything Mickey has done in terms of the acceptance and wider appreciation for other cultures and the impact sound has on our lives. But as a drummer, the band from '71-'74 (and to a lesser extent the early years) having just Bill on the kit was just different gravy. Much love and see y'all out there. ✌️ & ❤️.
