Jerry's face says life is good
Jerry had no idea that 41 years in the future this performance of this song would be bringing tears to the eyes of listeners..
Tell the truth!!! Especially these Garcia gems....as we age, the 'meaning' changes. But that's how they wrote that stuff....
A:To mean something now
B: To mean something different years from now
Peace🌹🌹🌹
I think he was very aware of how his music moved people. He was also aware that the audience moved him...
There are other lines I like more but the one that really tugs at me and brings the tears is the "There's some satisfaction, in the San Francisco rain..." It's not quite victory but it's good enough to keep you going.
@@zachhessler8722 For mẹ It’s definitely “tonight I would be thankful for any dream at all”
I have always loved this tune.
It’s funny how songs you’ve listened to for years take on a different meaning as you get older
No joke
Absolutely true....Some folks would be happy just to have one dream come true
But everything you gather is just more that you can lose
Amen
That change comes from wisdom that can only be learned from time and life's experiences. So many of their songs hit me differently now. Like a good kind of hurt.
Especially when you chew up a mouthful of Salvia
So many times this has lifted me from despair to elation!!
Mission is the quintessential Jerry song. The warmth of his voice draws you in and doesn't let you out.
Jerry was truly on another level with his guitar..wowzers...he always looks like he’s struggling to play but he’s really just playing for his life
I have to come back to this version at least once a week. Mission in the Rain epitomizes the melancholy jerry. This version being the most soulful and the most painful version. Jerry is playing his heart out here and he brings down the house.... "ten years ago I walked these streets my dreams were wide and tall. Tonight I would be thankful lord for any dream at all"... I mean who can't identify with this? Who doesn't wish they did something different? Who feels beat down all the time by life? But the mission always looks the same...
Love Jerry’s smile when he unleashes another volley on guitar and the keyboardist just folds his hands.
40 years later and an abundance of grateful tears streaming down my face.. music is so powerful. never stop creating. and thank you for this.
I hear you sis, I sent to my twin brother tonight and called me w tears to say thanks. Peace from Mississippi 😎✌️
My face melted several times watching this
I love this song on a good day when everything is going well... but I love it more on the toughest days when you need some words to lift your soul out of a rut. Such soothing sounds and expressions. Thank you Garcia/Hunter.
This song is the essence of Jerry ... I can feel his presence in these emotive chords, lyrics, and solo's. I can envision his spirit walking along by the mission in San Francisco, with a happy smile on his face. It almost brings me to tears.
Jonathan Gal 3/17/78 version is glorious. You’ll find the accompanying video on this here CZcams.
and robert hunter too
@@sertsj1 Jonathan, I couldn't agree more. There is something otherworldly about that rendition. One of my favorite videos all time. Maybe greatest Hunter/Garcia composition ever?
Maybe the best I’ve seen, ever, any band, any era. Seriously fucking amazing.
That smile 4 and a half minutes in is just magic
Hauntingly soulful vocal performance here. Jerry had crazy soul in both his playing guitar and his singing these wonderful poems. This is a prime example.
Very well said! "Crazy soul" indeed, with lyrics by a genius poet for sure.
That’s because soul isn’t something you take off like a t-shirt. You are soul, everyone is.
With you. Been into Jerry's slower stuff. These slow jams so poignant and beautiful
@@stephanlarsen8169 I LOVE THE GD's 1976 versions of this song. Along with "Rueben & Cherise", Mission is one of my favorite songs ever.
I was fortunate to catch an EPIC version at my first JGB show at SDSU's Open Air Amphitheater, one mile from my home when I was 15 years old. "Cats > Mission" opener. I had just seen my first GD show less than a month earlier at Irvine Meadows. Incredible "Sugaree" & one of the greatest "China Cat Sunflower " > "I Know You Rider"s" Eva. The way Jerry teases or repeats the beginning notes over & over is so cool. The soundboard sounds phenomenal!!!! My only "Built To Last" too. A song I really loved. If I was just a little older I would have dropped out of school & gone to last Frost & Greek shows but it wasn't meant to be.
8:30... Jerry bursts beautifully into another heartwrenching solo, no look or visual cues between keyboardist and himself, pure feeling, intuition, timing and wisdom. Amazing!!!
Thank you Jerry.
I have actually walked in the Mission in the rain. Many times. Jerry is my spirit animal. lol
Hope the bells are never for you, brother. You're not alone. Shine On! 💖(~);=}
it's amazing that so many of us have such a deep love for Jerry and all things Dead. it doesn't make sense but it feels so right.
Garcia Hunter tunes are an essay on the human experience
@@maybeioverreacted4504 Well stated!
why doesn’t it make sense? makes perfect sense to me🤙🏽
Chris Thomas yeah maybe you’re right. I was probably just trying to intellectually grasp it. Silly 🐰
Yessss
simply the best version of one of the best songs ever written
Then u haven’t heard Warner theatre 1978 with Donna and Jerry’s muse Maria muldair at the time, u must listen to it. It’s the best mission of all time........
Bill Setchum, is that 2/28/78? Because I know the one 🥲🥲
ozzie allers ladies and gentlemen, positively slaying it on the keys
Love his playing on this tune but sometimes he got carried away with the synthesizer,why, I'll never know.
Amazing accompaniment Crispy keys and drumz
God, I love this song. I was at this show as well as the 6/18/76 Capitol Grateful Dead show when they played this. One of only 5 times the Dead played it.
Outstanding!
My favourite Mission in the Rain from my favourite Jerry/Dead period. His voice and his playing here are precise, energetic and generally amazing.
I agree!
This stretch from the beginning of Feb.80 til the end of March 80 was some of the best JGB ever. IMHO.
Ah well, one person's precision, is another first step down the road of sloppiness! I think I was at this show. If you compare it with the Mission in the Rain from 2 years earlier ,same venue, you can here here Jerry's slow, long decline into drug-induced sloppiness. His sense of attack, rhythm and articulation are starting to get away from him, and his melodic lines become shorted and more hesitant. Don' t get me wrong, I LOVE this, but it is the beginning of the end....
Lawrence Joseph - No question that 3/17/1978 was a much better show especially this tune! John and Jerry and smiling and in the grove with Maria and even Donna sounding good! Check it out and compare! Jerry was using Wolf that night versus Tiger here! Just one's opinion who went to so many JGB shows I lost count just like Dead shows all through 70's until it ended in 1995!
So jealous. I was 10 when he passed. Anyways, i think this one has more energy while the other has more passion. Imho
"everything you gather is just more that you can lose" ~ Love you, Jerry
Amen brother!!!
Always loved that line.
Some folks would be happy
just to have one dream come true
but everything you gather
is just more that you can lose
Capital Theatre was special.
Jerry's rhythm guitar while the band takes it's turn soloing is great! His solo's are amazing! Masterful!
And the happy: fun version was on 3/17 of same year.
The crowd here alone make me wanna cry . True appreciation, Jesus.
Jerry might of been at his best in 80, 81. Excellent
David Wile yes! Love this show, sounds perfect!
An American treasure for sure, very special musician!
I agree that this is one of the best songs ever and this performance of it is sublime. The leads, oh the leads, just beautiful. 🙏🏻🔥💙
Yup. On fire. His whole soul is in this version.
Jerry is such an outstanding musician probably the best
can never get enough of JG doing this great work
So beautiful
Breathtaking melodicism
Jerry from 77-when his voice gave out was as good as it gets.
Bleeding heart music
Indeed
He was wearing that shirt for like 8 years that's some good material I need me a shirt like that
I always wear t-shirts like that in honor of Jerry.
Shut up, does notmatter how longhe ÷@=@ anything - u r not feing it move in if u do not feel what this is zbout
U r not ready to ezperirnce t bbn is
Roll wihit absorb & experiebxe
Simple eords not big words
Amazing and beautiful how Jerry’s vocals and guitar are like one in the same
Absolutely amazing performance. If people ever doubt why Garcia is enshrined as a rock god, this is proof. The four piece band absolutely is the perfect compliment to this song. Each player takes up the perfect amount of space, holds back, but the sound is still huge. Also, this song highlight's Jerry's quite nice use of his upper vocal register. Please share.
Some people would say his singing sucks, the music is too slow, and generally doesn't sound that good. They don't get it. They don't let themselves be moved.
@@AJ_Deadshow Yes I really feel sorry people who have not gave this music a chance it's like an awakening that most people never realize.
@@maybeioverreacted4504 exactly... most people weren't meant to get it, if you believe in God being all knowing and all powerful. I honestly was made to achieve the second step through this band. A higher power guiding everything and leading into these things happening... I mean, the odds of us having this sort of consciousness and being permitted to something known as the psychedelic experience is a rare enough treat, let alone the marvelous magical wonders of nature and her patterns... but I'm not out to prove the existence of God to anyone, no such thing needs to be done as belief in God (well, the kind I believe in) is not necessary to achieve salvation or a better kind of life, whether it's through increased understanding and awareness or the felt presence of direct experience improving, nothing important really happens, in my view, once you start believing in God. Those beliefs can stagnate just as much as empower a person. But I'm totally rambling, that's what weed will make you do lol. To me, God represents order and creation, and even in the most chaotic of systems, there is actually the finest and most intricate form of order we cannot even perceive. The entire universe and all of its happenings make sense; you just have to make sense of it if it doesn't seem that way. I dig your username, btw, that is an uncommonly mentioned character out of one of their best songs.
I was at this show,abt my 3rd or 4th,,the food sucked,there was no beer,but l snook in a pint of bacardi rum,,we made rum and cokes ,traded them off 2 ppl for...other patty favors!! life was good,,easier,hitching all over the place 2 see the dead,garcia band.Great memories,,😎
How I wish I could hear this live.. hope you know how lucky you have been
Nice story, helps set the tone brother.
Jerry always lit up Passaic - with the Dead or with JGB or acoustic w Mr Khan.
Rose S the acoustic shows are bad as fuck too I agree, man just shows that jerry can play eltric with the best no matter who was on boards or drums and he could even go acoustic with just one other person and turn in a show for the ages.
Spectacular! So sweet and soulful...
I was at this show and for the life of me, I can't remember any commercials during it. Shame on anyone attempting to monetize the music
Jerry rocks it all the plans I did I only did half way, so miss him
Jay Kneissler me too!😥
Jay Kneissler that line has always made my heart ache
Jerry gets so off playing. Most incredible, knowing most people will miss this genius
.
Spread the word and it lives on
Was at this show thanks!
You lucky person, I was 3 but we listen to it before football game to keep us chill.
Pure magic!
Have a very merry Jerry day.
Love This Song. Jerry was easily a genius. !!
Happy heavenly birthday, Jerry!
This is absolutely the best Mission ever, unreal
This is the real deal
this tune really appealed to me at wormtown a few years back, Melvin seals + the JGB band...rememberin back on the lost years, standing tall near the stage...'some one called my name, i turned around to see"...in my suit and feeling good, thinkin back on the past!...come along way since then. Put a smile in my heart.
Awesome, Damn I miss him
every time i hear this i picture myself walking in the mission in the rain
Why is that? 🎉
my fav J.G.B. song
Happy new year
#IWIWT I wish I was there.
MELT ME DOWN TO A PUDDLE OF DISCONTENT......You know I'm ready.........
I remember walking along in the Mission lmao usually was up to no good kinda darker days.
There was actually a time I HATED the Grateful Dead because the only song I ever heard on the radio was Trucking and honestly, I didn't like it. Then one night at my graveyard shift job, the employee I relieved left his boom-box behind with a Dead concert tape in it. I pressed Play and almost immediately became Reborn. It was that simple, that quick. That was in 1983..... Jerry IS Jesus!!
He killed this
Returned to say He Definitely Killed this!!!!
He didn't have a lot of money .....just wash & wear......that was the Mission In The Rain.
This is sodeep
I am just curious as to why anyone disliked it............
Wish the promontory rider with hunter was up
2019
2024
REALLY YOU PUT AN AD IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS?!?!?!?!?!?!?! FOR REAL
I miss Donna's sweet harmonies in this one, but Jerry really kicks it here.
Puff was here
Barely a minute in there's a Commercial.
Wow !!! 😭
I remember being in vegas in 2000 at the luxor having an animated arguement about if the protagonist of the song is looking for smack or hookers, I was arguing hookers
@@davidgazdziak2922 what then was he looking for in the mission, in the rain
Bodhisativa.
Donna FREE!
A GiFT! GiVen2Me! @VioLen$toLen!

Lots of bum notes there
So all the notes are bum notes
It’s called jazz
Yep. Just like the Jazz Hipsters and how they got their namesake, it's the style of music, plus some opiods. This was definitely some Afghan that he was enjoying. Tiger didn't get near enough of a growl for it to be his favorite, Persian.
This comment is a bum note
