Re: The Live Music Tread!

Still thinking of my Mom. I'll never forget when I gave her a copy of this show on CD back in the late 90's. She kind of laughed and said, "The Grateful Dead?" I know what she was thinking, "Those damn hippies and their acid rock." But being the trooper that she was, she honored my request and put the CD in her car and listened to it during her daily errands. A couple weeks later she told me how much she really enjoyed it! LOVED it, in fact! Wow, that was amazing. I shared many other live shows with her over the years (don't think she ever heard a studio album by the Dead, but the Dead was all about the live shows) and we had many great discussions about them. Treasured memories I will never forgot! And when I turned her on to Jerry Garica's bluegrass stuff, man, her mind was blown! This was her favorite song from that first CD I gave her, and the Dead song she always loved the most. It's one of my favorites too. RIP Mom!
