Since I know all the members of this forum like the Grateful Dead's music so very, very much. :smile: Sure.
Dead marathon all day and night today. KPFA.org. Or at 94.1FM on your radio dial if you live near Berkeley.

THIS is why I love YouTube. Beatles =blocked and 101 other bands, how about a cover with only a few subscribers? She does a great job and even wears the cool 60s glasses.
I forgot to say that I've listened to this song quite a few times because I liked it (I really liked her vocals in particular), and it has often given me the earworm syndrome.

I'm not joking, the first time I heard it I had the song stuck in my head the entire day :biggrin:.

Well, nothing to complain about, it's a great song, so it wasn't painful :smile:.
