I enjoyed it. It's not the Dead, but I think it's a fun rendition.

Could you play something from Yelllow Moon please 
Posted 8 months ago by lovelyhelicopter    [ Reply ]
Ah yes, the controversy over anyone other than the Dead or Jerry rendering a Dead / JGB track. This one goes good with morning wake-up coffee...or anytime.

Nice cover. It's got that New Orleans jazz funk to it. 
Posted 11 months ago by idiot_wind    [ Reply ]
WAY better version than the original! Admittedly, not 👎🏽 a Dead 💀 fan. Nice with a little N.O. flavor.

It also has an interesting Reggae drum groove and bassline that a lot of people surely missed

got a bit of a soft spot for the Neville Brothers as they supported these guys quite a bit (you can also hear a bit of their influence I think)
Posted 6 years ago by NoEnzLefttoSplit    [ Reply ]
Since we (deadheads, that is) are accustomed to hearing 20-30 minute versions of this song, perhaps following the Neville Brothers version with one of the shorter Dead versions would be an interesting medley.  Hell, make it a long version.  There is nothing like some of Donna's caterwauling to wake one up in the morning.

A great Dead song, my favorite actually. Cool rendition but just not the same. Needs more fire!
Posted 7 years ago by icuski2    [ Reply ]
great cover. love those neville brothers!
Posted 10 years ago by jimtyrrell    [ Reply ]
Unfortunately, I find that the only redeeming aspect of this version is the sax-driven intro. As noted by others, this song lacks something, specifically fire.

Frustrating that I hear this version so much on RP, but not the original.

Me too. Its a great track. I'd like to hear a dub version. . . 

edit. . . ha ha! I just did! Googled and found a band called Grateful Dub playing this very track (badly)
Posted 12 years ago by SquiddlyDiddly    [ Reply ]
Really surprising Neville Brothers wouldn't have done a much better job with this - a "5".
Posted 12 years ago by aspicer    [ Reply ]
After hearing this song so many times live by the Grateful Dead, and having seen the Neville Brothers open for the Dead for a New Year's Eve show, I have to say that I was ready to skip this with the first few measures. The NB rocked the arena with their set, which fortunately did not include this.

Ugh.

Just horrible when the Dead do it so much better. Please let's not hear this again.
Posted 13 years ago by iTuner    [ Reply ]
A nice treat to hear some Neville Bros. here, even if it isn't the most inspired cover. With such a wealth of outstanding material, not sure why the NB don't get more airtime. Their cover of Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle is outstanding, not to mention a sea of fantastic original material dating back to their Meters days.

Thanks for this one, hope to hear some more...

Nah - the Grateful Dead did it with energy and real musicianship. Nothing against the Neville Brothers overall, but neither of those qualities is evident here. 

Normally I appreciate a good dub cover, but... well, just nah.
 
I have to agree. This isn't horrible or anything, it's just missing something. Like a bland dish that needs some seasoning.
Posted 13 years ago by handyrae    [ Reply ]
I like the Neville Brothers, but the Dead does this song right.  When I hear the Dead do it, I want to jump out of my chair and start dancing.  When I hear this version, I just want to sink into my chair.

I like this song for what it is.  The Neville Brothers' version is the only one I've heard - had no idea it was a Dead song, and now, knowing that, it doesn't matter. I still like it. I could change my mind, though - I've had a glass of wine (after a pretty brutal day at work), the sun is shining, and I have tomorrow off, so who knows what could happen between now and, oh, tomorrow?{#Roflol}

Oh - and then to follow a Dead cover with a Dead song.... Bill, you're on a roll! {#Sunny}

I just crawled out from under a rock. I don't know the Neville Brothers well, nor do I know the Dead song. But I like this music.

Seems strange when not sung by Jerry.

It's ok, not great though.

Posted 16 years ago by flatpicker    [ Reply ]

Cyril's vocals always seemed much too forced for my liking.  Love the songs with Aaron or Art taking the lead.  Aaron's boy Ivan is also very talented and is the 5th Neville on stage.

I like it when the Dead does it! But this is really interesting too.

At a radio station in Vail, CO, we used to get LOTS of requests for this song...only by The Grateful Dead.

Not that I am a huge Dona fan, but I just cant listen to this particular song without her crazy wailing in the background... go figure.

Okay, but drags too much for my taste - how about some "Congo Square" instead?

This is cool. I got into the Neville Brothers because I heard the Dead do "Hey Pocky Way" in a show at Stanford. This completes the circle.

I've always wondered if Dead songs would sound good if played coherently. Apparently not.
Posted 20 years ago by physicsgenius    [ Reply ]
This is one of the very few Dead tunes that I find to be much better than ho-hum. In fact, I like this one quite a lot . . . when, that is, it's a Dead tune. . . .
Posted 20 years ago by Xeric    [ Reply ]
I love the Neville Bros., but this does not hold a candle to the Dead. Sorry. I am sure that this song (as performed by the Nevilles) would be great in concert, so long as they sped up the tempo a bit.
