re: Is there a more disappointing first listen than the Grateful Dead?

The show itself just confirmed my bias going in - sour sounding off key noodling

Give it another shot

from near the same time, but better played. They were very very flawed and human and had off nights, but when they were on, it was undeniable. had the pleasure of seeing Garcia over 100 times, and it was hit or miss a lot. That was part of the appeal, really. This is from me to you- you saw the dead in 82- I am jealous!!!!
