Grateful Dead HQ took another dive into their 90s video vault for this week’s edition of All The Years Live, showcasing their June 16, 1990 performance of “Touch of Grey” from the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, Calif.
“From the excellent View From The Vault Vol. 3, featuring an opening sequence of Let The Good Times Roll/Truckin’/Touch of Grey, this hit song from 1987 was still very warmly received whenever it was played live,” said David Lemieux in the YouTube video’s description. “Its melody and lyric were so uplifting, and today truer words could not be sung than its final refrain of ‘we will get by, we will survive.'”

Very inspirational.

the singer/guitarist died in rehab prematurely at 53. His last keyboardist died of suicide a couple of years later. If you mean greater society, or the country, my CNN currently is posting 9,494,571 cases of covid, with 484,155 deaths up to this second. (USA: 2,398,491 and 122,238 respective.) Most Americans DON’T, or ‘barely’ get by. George Floyd and countless others didn’t get by, didn’t survive. It’s more like Jim Morrison: “Five to one, baby, one to five, no one here gets, out alive.”
