- "If you were seeing a lot of shows 1979-1982, you likely saw this Weir-Barlow combination plenty of times. This terrific rendition was a highlight of the Dead Ahead home video, the Dead's first foray into creating a video specifically for the home viewer (as opposed to the Grateful Dead Movie in 1977, which was a theatrical project). In 1986, the Dead dropped Lost Sailor from the setlist, leaving its partner to appear sporadically in second sets for the next decade." - David Lemieux

Who was running sound at this time? Was Dan still around... @gratefuldead
@NLTDB3S 🥚🐜[🐈]🐈 Same I just noticed SOC was first cut on 91 album, being a live show Lost Sailor being left out
@NLTDB3S likely dropped bc it's very composed, has weird time sigs and isn't conducive to jamming, like the Eleven or Help on the Way (or even some stuff off Wake of the Flood)
@NLTDB3S I am the lost sailor
Even when I buoy nearby...
@@newusernamehere4772The Eleven!! That was the greatest jam vehicle in the 60's !! For me at least :)
“I’m still walkin’, so I’m sure that I can dance” is a line that only gets better as one ages.
That line helped me accept my MS diagnosis. And yes, I'm still dancing. 😊
One thing we all must acknowledge: Bob Weir knows all the chords. All of them.
hahahaaaa!
As Sammy Hagar (Montrose, Sammy Hagar, Van Halen) has said of Weir (on first draft of this my phone spelled it "weird". Wow. 🫣), "Bobby is the best second man, rhythm player in the business".
Lost Sailor/Saint of Circumstance has long been one of my favorite GD jams. Simply beautiful and far reaching.
He can't always remember the lyrics though. LOL
@@mattbecker4320lol😂
I've really grown to love these two songs over the past year or so. Bobby fans are people too.
Bobby song are the best songs . Dude lost sailor> saint. Lazy lighting > suplification. Weather report suite> let it grow . The best
eggman615 I like all the songs but imo Victim or the Crime is one of Weir's masterpieces
@@lyserguy6939 omg fuck yeah man can't forget the other one and throwing stones too!
I have loved this duo forever. Such great energy.
@@mregensb1sgt the best
I've been fighting something called Gulf war illness for over 30 yrs, over the past year, I've found real answers, I see the shore!!!! Thank You for the Music!!!!!!
The Music, the Music never did stop, not once, I'll be forever Grateful!!!!!
Thanks for your service and you're welcome to enjoy the splendor of the music my friend ✌️
There’s a dead song for every moment in life .. Truly Beautiful
There is aye,the dead are life.
They find us when we need em
Lost Sailor was my Daddy's theme song - I sure do miss him - this song always puts a smile on my face and a tear in my eye...I love you Dad
Rih
Your dad is awsome and he appreciates every time you play this one I'm sure
Barlow deserves to be talked about more.
Americas band.
I don't know what I am going for
But I am gonna go for it for sure
Man I was on several hits of lsd with about another 10 or so in my pocket while cutting my grandmothers grass listening to this song. The inner voice told me to eat the rest of what I had in my pocket but fear and doubt creeped in. Just as this was happening Bobby and the band began to sing "I don't know what I'm going for, but I'm gunna go for it for sure" and felt the affirmations of God in their music and ate the rest of it. Good times.
sometimes this is the only thing i will listen to for days and days
me too girl ♥️
I like your ladies style......
This combo took me maybe the longest of any songs in the repertoire for me to really “get”. This was like the last piece of the puzzle to snap into place for me. It wasn’t until I went through a period in my life of feeling adrift at sea, seeing the shore lights beckon, and knowing the price of being free, that the emotion of this combo really sunk it. But once it did, I found there were/are few songs that move me more now or mean more on a personal level.
This is Barlow’s masterpiece in my mind.
This must be Heaven....
Thank you, Barlow. And thank heaven for the Grateful Dead.
I may at times have felt like like a lost sailor, going to hell in a bucket and just trying to hold on and enjoy the ride, but in the end we are all perfect Saints of Circumstance, spinning around on this rock in space, unknowing of the who, what, when, where, why of it all, who can only console ourselves and our sisters and brothers by acknowledging “I sure don’t know what I’m going for, but I’m gonna go for it for sure...”. Furthur...
Yes, once you've "been too long at sea", you can understand the depths of this masterpiece and truly appreciate the transitions, as they take you places that give you a chance, to get a glimpse of a different perspective.
same here! used to think it was kinda dumb really. took me forever to really get Bob's+Barlow's stuff, now I love it all.
Damn....very well said. I have that same feeling!
Keep the faith homie!!!.....
If this kinda atmospheric stuff appeals, you might enjoy some of David Crosbys stuff. His first album, If Only I Could Remember My Name has quite a few of the dead playing
Not too sure if many of you know this but these run of shows helped save Radio City Music Hall. The Hall was going to be torn down and replaced with apartments. The Dead donated money from these concerts to secure the funding needed to keep the Hall open. True story. Thank You Grateful Dead.
lol Not completely true, although it is a nice story. The band helped keep the doors open by being a money generating act (after Linda Ronstadt) that played the Hall that year after its' refurbishment. There were actually lawsuits filed for a minute by the Rockefellers (who owned the Hall as well as a lot of other shit) to the Dead that got settled during the run - so no donations were made lol
@@jpwjr1199 Funny how the real story is always a little more darker. A Touch Of Grey.
@@josevillarreal9920 I dunno. People love to shovel bullshit it seems. The Dead at Radio City was a helluva great time. Can’t that be enough?
Seriously, can you imagine the Dead donating money to Nelson fucking Rockefeller. I mean, it’s Weir’s birthday today, I hear he’s donating his money to Jeff Bezos. Ludicrous
@@jpwjr1199 It's a great show with amazing performances but I did read that and thought they handled it well.
I went to all 8 shows and was sitting first row right in front of Jerry this night. Amazing!
you my friend are a VERY lucky man !!!!!!!! VERY JEALOUS ...LOL...
Awesome
Your my Hero
@@ryanmoore2779 hard to wrap my head around that! sail on!
@Jeff Rogers awesome, crazy and fun. thanks for sharing your memories!
Lost Sailor/Saint Of Circumstance and Weather Report suite are the great masterpieces of Weir & Barlow. It’s no wonder Bobby being the greatest rhythm guitars of all time that his songwriting would take on a harmonic sophistication the likes of which The Grateful Dead had never seen before. Truly brilliant stuff 🥀
I love this, but I got in the car the other morning and it was raining and thinking how great it would’ve to hear Weather Report Suite and Siri’s was playing it from 2/23/73 on TDIGDH. Stars aligned 💜
Born in 71, grew up to this music, and appreciate it more and more every day. The Dead, they’re the GOAT in my opinion.
Born in 71 as well and agree wholeheartedly! ⚡
Facts coming from a PUNK fan!
Born in 92 and my dad would always blast this song and fire on the mountain when we were out on the boat.
bobby never got enough credit for his songwriting. this is a spectacular combination. hard to believe they dropped "lost sailor" from the rotation. an unbelievable tune. and the boys absolutely killin it here.
I saw dead and co play it in 2018
He gets credit, it's just a Lennon/McCartney situation. Two superstar talents in one place, and honestly Weir is great - great voice, songwriting, and Jerry is one of the greatest musicians of all time. Then there's Robert Hunter too. Why choose though? The real beauty here is that all these talents and more came together to create something great(ful)er than the parts! I wouldn't really be the Dead without Jerry's contributions, or Hunter's...or Weir's either.
@@Sinsteel and the heads who give their souls to the band.
D&C, bringing it back!
The deeper Bobby songs are incredible. Just let them have room in your ears to bloom in your brain.
"This must be heaven..." Couldn't articulate that feeling any better Bobby, thanks.
I caught 2 of the Radio City shows. Took a bus over from NJ. I was 14. Good times!!
Gary Gill what a champ. 14 and sailing the sea of GD
Bobby truly was and still is the other half of the Dead. Bob could bring down the house and had his perfect licks in the right places and made the dead shine even in the darkest of times.... if there ever was such a thing, and never once missed Jerry's musical conversation in the chaos or the paradise of a show all while playing masterpiece works of visionary music with a head full of shamanic genius fried by the best acid known to man.... but he's also just that other jamming dude who sings when Jerry doesn't (~};)
Bobby could remember the novel size lyrics of "Desolation Row" while Jerry had trouble remembering the chorus of "Sugaree." :) And he was a metronome when Jerry got lost. He would bob back and forth and kick at just the right moment.
Haha totally love this comment! So true!
having been out there being pushed by the wind., I can say without a doubt, this song is about as close as you can get without getting your feet wet.
In my opinion the best performances of lost sailor & saint of circumstance I’ve ever heard. Buddy of mine taped this (Dead Ahead) off of PBS onto VHS in the 80’s & we used put the tape on, sit, play chess &, toke up for hours & hours flipping the tape over constantly. It’s what really turned me onto the dead. Every time I hear this particular performance of lost sailor the hair on the back of my neck stands up & those memories flood.
Awesome post
This performace is so good, it literally brings tears to my eyes
When Jerry Looks out at The Crowd and smiles. A Golden moment in a stellar performance 👑
Man when Jerry smiles you can't help but to do the same. What a beautiful soul.
driftin and dreamin, maybe goin on a feeling🤘🏼🤓🤘🏼
The segue from Lost Sailor to Saint of Circumstance is just perfect. I love it so much!
Bob Weir sings these songs so beautifully, just perfect....
If you’ve ever had your back pressed firmly against “the wall” and had to stop to think “…how THE HELL am I going to get out of this fine mess???” THIS is your anthem. I know that ever single time ‘the odds against me been increasing” I bust out this gem and hunker down for a big fight.
I dedicate this to every other ‘tiger in a trance’
You can hear em callin’ on the wind
Love these 2 songs combined so much! Love Jerry Garcia ❤
A very insightful track reminiscent of an era passing and the experience of humility.
Killer preformce by the band. 1980 was a good year for the GD in my book. Brent just dresses it on. Jerry and Phil had not made "the switch " yet but man I just LOVE Jerry's playing especially on Lost Sailor, its just out of this world. The drummers also accompany the arrangement well. They go from "drifting your life away" to
"Having a feeling there is no time to lose" & I just cant get enough of this high quality, heavy, thick sounding, brilliant music that just makes me happy😎and grateful to be alive. Each morning I wake up at like 530am have my morning coffee and listen to either an entire show or just CZcams videos like this to start my day with good vibes being injected at a high decibel through my headphones🎧
(best way to listen to music 2nd only to live and that's even situational) I may even write a little review that's how much I love this stuff. I feel compelled to write about this beautiful music I just heard and how great it made me feel.
"Sure dont know what I'm going for but I'm gonna go for it for sure"
>Grateful Dead
saying that always puts me in a good mood
I was thinking of this on this lovely spring day. It is even better than I remembered.
Brilliant 👏 composed and played. There isn't a jam, but I hear Jehovahs favorite choir . For sure..
This is one of some of my first shows that would turn me into a solid dead head. ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING. Best band of all time!! I'm forever greatful. ❤
Complex chord shapes, wistful and existential lyrics, amazing grooves in both songs....both are masterpieces IMO
This Lost Sailor really is a magnificence.
Right on brother.
True gems from that album! The boys nailed this one to the wall
Becker and Fagan had nothing on Wier / Barlow. Really amazing stuff.
For those of us fortunate enough to see these Radio City Shows 3 sets opening acoustic and two long electric sets it was magic.
Fantastic! I saw this show at Folsom Field in Boulder CO 1980.
Nice! thanks for the post, been a rough day, the Dead always help. I was 4 years old when this played :)
Love lost & saint. The key for me is the last building and crash within saint at 10:12 in the video. Just amazing. My favorite has always been 5/16/1981 @Cornell but this I think is my number two favorite now.
I love these two tracks, combined🤩😎
Happy 73rd trip around the sun Bobby!!
I love this combo. Such contrast yet synchronicity between the two!
Weir and Barlow wrote some killers....Cassidy, Weather Report, these two.......geniuses.
Absolutely beautiful
Phil's bass is sounding sweet.
Lost sailor very cool tune ,bobs a glorious singer he is rockNroll.My favourite guitar player.Go Bobby go go go.
Hope we get more from this show! This rendition got me 🙌
This song has a special meaning for me
The first time I heard it
My mom came out and told me that my brother in law died
It means the world to every being if they know it or not.
Wow this is awesome 👌
My son's favorite jam when he turned 7.
Bob Weir is great on these two numbers !!!! 🤩🤩
Very Grateful! 80’s AGAIN! They did play in the 60’s & 70’s so I’m told
Yeah, didn't have many videos back then.
Crisp clean & powerful. Bravo!
the sound quality is amazing ! Just wonderful. Thank You ! ! !
Wow I'm so blessed by the dead💉💊🩹
It's a lovely delicate song.
Its like these songs were meant to be pieced together. Saint of circumstance brings you back to lost sailor, after giving the impression the song has changed. dreams dreams dreams
This is freaking spectacular!
smokin show! what a fun ride!
As proggy as they ever got. Love this song and bobby! Wheres is the dogstar?!
Nah, New Potato Caboose is as proggy as they ever got (that or the stuff on Blues For Allah).
Jerry once said getting Bobby to do different songs was like pulling teeth. Most of my favorite shows were late 80's. He was stuck in Memphis with the Daisy Duke shorts, again. I forgot that the mixed tape I got that warped my 13 yr. old brain had my first fave, Bobby doing "Good Lovin'" and Dead Set had "Passenger" and one of the Biblical ones, "Greatest Story Ever Told" or something. Sure beats the hell out to of "Mexicali Blues" into "El Paso." Best First Set closer I saw replaced "Deal" for awesomeness. "The Music Never Stopped" made the Oakland Coliseum literally shake.That kid has potential. They should probably keep him.
Got to witness on The Dead & Company tour! ❤️
Very tight. Awesome.
These two tunes on Go To Heaven are among the very best performances the Dead ever achieved in the studio, with Garcia's solo on Sailor being, in my opinion, one of his very best.
Go for it!!!!
So awesome to see Jerry playing Tiger
Great choice thanks
Just awesome
Jerry's expression at 11:13 tells the whole story. The band was smoking!
Love it. After seeing him do that, I can’t not do that when I hear that part of the song. Also, is this the first Jerry Brent moment on film? He’s looking in that direction but it isn’t clear
Yes I agree…you could tell Jerry was a very humble musician…he really loved when others got out “in front”…I recall seeing him step out with Sting and it was like he was asking “hey would it be ok if I joined your band for a little bit?”
One my Favorites!❤
1980 was THE year for Lost Sailor/SOC. Both Fox Theatre shows, Nassau, Spokane, and this here, etc.
This is the real f*cking deal
Best cut eva
Sublime.
Bravo!!!
Going Feeeeling Drifting and Dreamin.
Jerry’s tone sparkles
Cheers
Saw this simulcasted at the Calderone Theater Hempstead, NY. Anyone else?
That climax at 10:14 gets me everytime.
Just listening to Jerry rip an all time amazing solo then Phil's fat face came in at 10:05 and I just lost it laughing. Thank god he got off the booze.
magic.
Bob Rules!
😎 thanks
Watch as bob carry’s the torch and the band into a new decade
“LISTEN!!!....”
I recently read Kruetzman totally dissing 'Lost Sailor' and I don't for the life of me get it; I'd say it's one of the best Dead songs anybody wrote after at least 1975.
this is epic...😛
6:08 God we love you Phil. Fk man
Typical Phil, all geeked out, hilarious to watch
WOUUWWW
10:00 feels good
If you can do anything from spring 77, that would be wonderful. Thanks 😊
Listen!
Woooooo where's the dark star?😮⛵️⏳️🌠
its where's the Dog Star. I think that some heads thought it was dark star at shows thus the cheers even though im not sure why they really would cheer for that lyric. anyway, lost sailor saint is still one of my all time favorites
My family wants me home but that is not possible
drifting & dreaming
Bobby is a Beast
