Make me believe!
    #5305975 -

Ok.  Here's the deal.  Maybe, just maybe, you have to be American to 'get' The Grateful Dead.  Maybe the people that I used to trip with and get stoned with who tried to get me to understand their love of the Dead played me the wrong songs or whatever.

Why are they so revered?  I like a fair bit of US Psyche - Thirteenth Floor Elevators, The Byrds, Quicksilver Messenger Service etc. from the Sixties...

But I've never been able to understand or enjoy the Dead.  So can someone give me a top 5 essential tunes of the Dead list that I can download...

I want to understand the fascination!  Thx in advance!  :thumbup:

I don't really understand either.
I listen to underground black metal, death metal, etc. 90% of what I listen to comes from Europe.
There are very few mainstream songs that I listen to.
Is G.D. even considered mainstream?? I seriously know nothing about them at all.

Black Peter
Fire on the Mountain(if you can't see it after listening to this one...)
Uncle John's Band
Shakedown Street
Eyes of the World

That should get you liking the Dead.

And no, the Dead speaks to everybody. If you are human, the dead are playing about you.

No ONE wants to know the ultimate TRUTH, as soon as YOU find IT out, YOU want to forget IT.

If you don't like them, you don't like them.

Don't force yourself to listen to shit you don't want to hear.

pffft, studio dead is good. Its like the gateway to the live stuff. Are you saying he shouldnt listen to American Beauty, Anthem of the Sun, or my favorite studio dead, Working man's dead? I say check em all out and see what you like. There is nothing wrong with like studio dead.

It's really more about the culture than the music.

Even some die-hard Dead heads will agree that the music is mediocre at best. There are plenty of much better bands.
However, there's no better culture than Greatful Dead culture. If you don't like the music when you first hear it, especially
the studio stuff, you probably never will. So be it. But go to a Dead show and drop acid and then say you didn't have one of the
best times of your life.

I'm no dead head, far from it, and I've never had the experience I just mentioned either, but I know what it's all about. LOVE.:heart:

I'll probably always do drugs, so that just contributes to the addiction to The Shroomery... It's a vicious circle of bliss. :tongue2:

Sugar Magnolia, Sugaree, and Tons of Steel are a few that I can deal with nicely. There are more too.
