A place to talk about the music of the Grateful Dead

I was just speaking to voicing and the order in which the notes are plucked - hence the inversion!

Thanks for taking the time to post those! But, do you honestly hear any of those as the chords under the sung verses on the studio album?

I just can't seem to get anything to "click" in my head to where I say to myself "yup, that's it!" if you know what I mean. It may be me that's the problem.Emoto wrote:Sorry man - I know your original post noted the studio version - don't know if I've ever heard it!

I think I remember hearing that they were all tunes selected by John Kahn...great Motown stuff...Fantastic version of That's What Love...as well as Let it Rock and Hunter Gets Catured by the Game.. if memory serves...and the list goes on and on. If you don't have this album you should get it...I think there is a new release with additional tunes. Now that I think of it I should get that one.It's just that the studio albums are so sterile sounding for the most part, w/o the live magical moments. For a hot TWLWMYD, I always think of the monstrous versions from 11/10/81 (can't remember if its Late or Early)

Larry Carlton played some guitar on it too. I've done "What Goes Around" from this record.

I listened to that album with TWLWMYD yesterday.
Yer Crazy!
This thing sounds killer... right from the Train Whistle blows at the beginning of Let it Rock, thru the cool outro on Let's Spend the Night Together (he kinda loses me on the really slow ones at the end of this album).
'A great listen with a ton of in yer face Jerry G. singing and playing.
I'd label it as instructional "requied listening" for anybody who wants to hear "what it's supposed to sound like".
A better question might be...
What chord forms does he use in the intro to He Ain't Give You None?
