I'm working on a couple of very late period Dead tunes. I might put one up this weekend sometime. -Ray

I am striving for mediocrity with my singing. Sometimes I’m embarrassed by it, but then I say to myself there’s plenty of high handicappers on the golf course who seem to enjoy themselves just fine and nobody criticizes them for trying. So that’s what I’m going to do Recording has helped me, and listening back to this one I probably should’ve gone a little higher—but live and learn! Thanks again,

You know this thread will not fade away! I want to do an Althea cover one of these days, but the house has been chaos and it hasn't been quiet enough for me to record lately. Once I get some quiet time, I'll lay it down and share it. Might work up a Stella Blue later this spring as well. Stay tuned!

Do it! There are at least two Altheas here already.

Change of plans. I was gonna try recording my two favorite late era Jerry songs, Standing on the Moon, and So Many Roads this weekend. My wife is going out of town tomorrow for a few days, so I may yet. But this morning I was just messing around with this one and it occurred to me, and really surprised me really, that nobody had done this one in this thread yet. I was having too much fun not to record it, so here you go - Hunter's take on Altamont... Since this is almost more of a rap than singing, I wasn't too worried about the vocal...
-Ray

One of your best, Ray! Love the electric tone, rhythm part is spot on. This is an underrated song, maybe because it didn’t get played live very much (I never heard it live)? Funny, in my head I hear Pigpen singing it, not Jerry. For me it is kind of the flip side to Easy Wind. But I digress, great job 👏

Thanks Joe! I’ve got one more in mind, another late period Jerry tune that I only recently appreciated.

My wife was out of town visiting her Mom yesterday and most of today. I had a docs appt this morning or I'd have gone too. But I had a LOT of time and nobody to worry about offending around. My wife is very nice about my playing, but we have pretty different taste in music and I know my playing is a lot to put up with for her. Even if she never says to. So anyway, I did record the two songs I'd been threatening to. I'd done a cut of one before I did New Speedway Boogie, but I wanted to try it again before posting. Anyway, these are probably my two favorite late era Garcia / Hunter tunes. So Many Roads slipped under my radar until I saw them in Philly the night they played Unbroken Chain for the first time, in the Spring of 95. That was an electric moment, but most of the concert wasn't much to write home about (as most of them weren't in those late days). But they played So Many Roads, and Jerry sung it more soulfully that I'd just about ever heard him sing anything. Just absolutely blew me away. I've had a soft spot for it ever since. And Standing On The Moon was also a really sweet ballad. Also associated with a late Jerry memory. The night before the last night I saw the Dead with Jerry, they played this. And it was awful, and a real tell for just how sick the man was. He could barely play anything that night, and while he was singing this tune, he could barely croak it out. It was just heartbreaking. This was June 95, a two night run at RFK, and the second night was better - Dylan opened and Jerry and Hornsby sat in for a few songs and that seemed to energize Jerry some. Anyway, here are my versions of these two tunes. I've come to really love both songs. I don't have any other Dead tunes on my list to try to play or record. I'm sure I'll find something at some point, but this little burst of three songs in quick order might be it for me for a while at least... -Ray

I Ike those, Ray! A couple of great tunes. I have always thought SOTM deserved more acclaim, love that lyric. Your tone on the solos is real nice.
Let’s hope for more contributions. This could up as a zombie thread as new members join, that would be great
