A community for Deadheads on Lemmy.

Feel free to post music, discussion, memes, articles and anything else related to the Grateful Dead or the band members' side projects.

Only a couple quick rules, I think most should be obvious anyway:

Stay on topic - keep posts Dead related
Keep disagreements civil
No NSFW (pornographic) content
No racist, sexist, bigoted or violent content
No politics (unless something is directly related to the band or its members) or other deliberately divisive topics
Above all else, be kind, ain't no time to hate

Focusing on the positive side of this and not the reasons you are not a fan of someone(s), what post Jerry Band is your favorite?

I’ll go first.

I have seen the Other Ones and the Dead. If you want to include Melvin with Jerry Band I have seen them too. But for whatever reason my favorite is 7 Walkers. I love every song on that album and I think it is designed to be played start to finish. Highly underrated. I love listening to their live shows on the archive, the way they take that slow rolling zydeco into New Speedway Boogie for example is just so simple and well executed, I can’t stop listening.

Here is a link to one of their shows on the archive. There are many more so check them out.
