This solo contains everything that I think is great about treys guitar playing. It’s quirky jazz type line punctuating the chord tones perfectly towards the end of the solo when they return to the d minor chord he just starts spewing these phases of funky blue notes. You can even hear the crowd reacting with a roar as the music releases. Top notch shit in my book
100%. Couldn’t have described it as well in musical terms, but I know exactly what you mean and it’s exactly what I love about this solo. Shakedown street and it’s structure provides a great platform for this kind of playing. This kind of music gets me high.
yeah I know the song well, but i'm talking about the next 4-6 bars (after the "woo") when the crowd just goes crazy..but thanks for trying to correct me.
I have seen thousands of concerts--not bragging--100+ GD and 100+ PHiSH--what a COMBO with PHiL and PHRIENDS--these three nights were my favorite concerts ever. Unreal time at The Warfield that weekend.
i love the dead and phish. was more into phish early in life, now equally if not more into the dead. phish has always been respectful of gd and their influence. i hate the negative vibes from both camps of fans though. it is not in the spirit of what it's all about. much love to the non-haters. i think it's cool that they were able to do this.
I love them all. Whats to hate. They all jam. I'm going to see Trey Arnesto in Orlando Fl. and then Ratdog in Atlanta this year. Love em all. Then its Wanee Fest in April, awesome year so far. (~);}
Born in 2001 i just got into the greatful dead (dead&co)their show was legendary now im trying to go to a phish show.because jt seems like phish is the closest your gonna get to a dead scene if not a little more trippier . i come from hip hop background but after dead show at wrigley ive been trying to find best jam bans especially the ones on tours… im seeing phil lesh & friends at scared rose in august i cant wait… wish i can put everyone on to rock music it will literally take just 1 show but nobody my age where im from is really interested
Exactly. Its called Phil Lesh and Friends, which means he invites musicians to give their own interpretation of the wonderful music that the grateful dead have given to us. In this case it is Trey Anastasio... which is most excellent! And Steve Kimock which is also most excellent!!!
As both huge Deadhead in my younger years and Phish fan in my mid twenties till now, I could say that this will always be one of my most memorable shows.
Almost 20 years ago I wrote a letter (yes on paper) to Phish saying how I loved how they played music for people actually listening to the notes and virtuosity, and not for deadheads having a drug experience. I got a postcard back from Mike Gordon saying "Glad you're out there listening carefully. Unlike the rest of the band, I love the Grateful Dead to death."
I always had thought that Mike was the only deadhead in phish and then around 98 phish covered terrapin and trey plays with phil and all of sudden trey is gushing about the dead and talking about how he would go to shows all the time growing up. I think that a lot of people go through a stage where after they completely saturate their life with nothing but dead they start to pull back. They were frustrating and inconsistent at times. You learn a bit about music and you start to demystify what at first seemed like the height of virtuosity. When you hear "jerry's using the mixolydian mode here" it sounds so exotic and then you learn about modes and how they work and you run through the patterns on your guitar and you realize that is all Jerry is doing when they are jamming. You branch out and discover all these other great bands etc. The meters sound more authentic and funky, miles davis is more pyschadelic etc. But you find your way back to the dead and realize maybe they were as good as you first thought. Maybe better. I think that went on with trey, and he even mentions a "kill your idols" phase he went through. It makes sense too because phish were so much tighter, they were more constistent show to show and there jams are so much more focused. Even when trey ran into his trouble with drugs it wasnt so obvious on stage as it was for jerry, who could barely sing or play many nights. But trey found his way back i guess and its great because their is so much crossover there with the respective fanbases and its great to hear trey and page and mike play with the dead
Trey with the precision licks and the technique. Steve with the spacey Jerry sound. Both great but TREY on a whole level higher, you can't beat his phrasing in this one. 3:54- 4:08 vintage Trey
I think Phish could play this and easily go into rotation. Trey knows the GD music much more now plus everyone would eat it up....Shakedown. Talk about a 2nd set opener
That “comeback” as I call it is my fav part of treys playing in a lot of cases. There’s a ghost somewhere that has my favorite example of one of these but after a really really huge buildup… have listened on repeat over 100 times I believe.
@@jqlarson it's almost like he's throwing us a curveball, leading us to one direction and then going somewhere else entirely! I love this aspect of Trey's playing and Jerry was a master at it too.
Shit, I forgot how stylish Trey was. Don't hate on this, this is one of his tributes to Jerry and he is very respectful in the presentation. I feel like he is trying to channel the love that's lost (or dispersed and spread, depending on your beliefs and motives).
@phattskis...... came out from CO for these shows on a whim. Had a ticket for the first night and somehow got miracled for the next two. They were hundreds of dollars on the street if you could find them and I got miracled onto the floor! Grew up right up the road from RR and have seen ALOT of shows. These rank top seven all time!! UNREAL!!
I don't know how and don't wanna google at the moment how to but watch the happening begin between Anastasio and Kimock at 7:19. Release the damn. Thanks Matt knowing phan for showing me this video.
love it - only thing that kinda bugs me is that everytime they get to the bridge ("Maybe that's cuz it's midnight", etc) Trey plays Fmajor 7, Em, 3 times in a row when actually the way the song really goes, its only twice and then steps down and subs the Dminor for the Fmaj 7.
why would is the question... when you figure it out sing your own voice and let the influences come through..love Steve but clones are clones.. the real deals don't clone.. Miles.. Hendrix.. Jerry.. Trey. When Phish plays original it's special..real deal
kimock's rapid noodling is great here! but hey let's face it trey is the master of this version, his energy,dynamics, he knows when to avoid ego driven fusion excursions, like jerry and when to cram in a zillion notes in a few simple bars! trey is a true master! i hope u phish haters can accept this! jerry is groovin, smilin, honored in his grave! thank u dead and thank u phish!
Aw sheeit it's Jerry! We knew you'd be back some day! Of course you would know what the Dead would be playing in this day and age if they were still around..!!!
A Pirrone you're right. I saw Bisco twice and they were flat but I've since changed my mind about them. Now its all about love, but I still don't like White Bread Picnic
@jeffhickman10 Actualy Slash is a good guitar player. I was never much of a G&R fan but I have recently come to appreciate his playing. Trey has some nice funky licks happening here. It's all good. lol
Idk what you guys are talking about, i listened to grateful dead so intensely before i even heard a phish song, and i love grateful dead, but Trey is Doin a pretty fuckin damn good job. its not right to compare trey to Jerry.
this has a real pop to it. nothing nostalgic about it. well played, and certainly one of the dead songs that lends itself to the Phish style. now Trey doing So Many Roads??? Maybe...

Agreed, treys jazz influence in his guitar playing shines here. Literal perfection

3:53. Best fucking lick ever! Listened to it like 50 times
i totally agree..and i especially love how the audience cant even contain their excitement when he carries the solo into the chorus
yeah I know the song well, but i'm talking about the next 4-6 bars (after the "woo") when the crowd just goes crazy..but thanks for trying to correct me.
+Ben Wexford you got that right!
The short solo at 2:50 is permanently burned into my memory. So absurdly tasteful.
Seriously man, that was dope
At 3:52 for me! Confident, cowboy Trey playing right there -- my favorite.
@@slauryyyyy so nasty, the change is perfect
It's grown on me steadily and now I think it might be one of the greatest melodic solos of all time
Trey’s 99 tone is unmatched
I could listen to Trey and Steve go back and forth all day. They sound so good together!
Amen!
yourendwastheroad everyday and twice on Sunday magic.

Nicely done Trey. One of the better hybrid scale solo's on a Shakedown you're ever gonna see.
Watching Steve and Trey play off each is fantastic....and I'm grateful for these shows...
i love the dead and phish. was more into phish early in life, now equally if not more into the dead. phish has always been respectful of gd and their influence. i hate the negative vibes from both camps of fans though. it is not in the spirit of what it's all about. much love to the non-haters. i think it's cool that they were able to do this.

Its crazy how you posted this 8 years ago and I literally went through the same thing last month
Don't forget Jerry Garcia band 🍄🌍🍄 Tucson Arizona Sonoran desert 🏜️🌵 yes I keep on keeping on Africa
One of the fortunate to attend this show amazing groove. Original Phil and Friends was awesome. thx Trey
So glad there's video from this show... not only is there video, there's GREAT video! Thanks for the upload phanner... good shit.
Kimock was crushing it!
Kimock definitely crushed this Shakedown!! You couldn't ask for a better post Jerry guitarist other than maybe John Kadlecik.

Good rendition, thanks for sharing. One of my favorite Dead tunes..gets them feet movin' and them bones shakin'.
This is a awesome upload of Phil and friends singing Shakedown Street
So unbelievable every time I hear this.....straight fire
wonderful; marvelous... thanks for posting!!!!!!!
This is not an understatement when I say I think Kimmock Trey and Phil take GD music to peaks and valleys never traversed before. Unreal
You've obviously never really listen to Jerry, Brent, Bob & Phil jamming out Bertha or a KILLER Shake Down Street

@@matthewmead2374 talk that talk
@@matthewmead2374 the shows he'd go to growing up we're Max Creek and Scott M is from whom Trey garnered his early inspiration
@@matthewmead2374 this comment is a TED TALK
this is so goooood!! Trey freaking killed it
Is that you Terminal Passage?
Trey with the precision licks and the technique. Steve with the spacey Jerry sound. Both great but TREY on a whole level higher, you can't beat his phrasing in this one. 3:54- 4:08 vintage Trey
This is legendary!

It’s so frustrating that they won’t do it.
That's really nice. Thanks for posting it!
Love the interplay between Trey and Kimmock around the 8 minute mark :D
These shows kick Fare Thee Well square in the nuts. Straight fire. Trey’s on fire and Phil actually lets him take the reigns
Been looking for these vids for a long time thanks phan!
A lot of amazing feelings in this tune
THANK YOU for posting!
best note ever played at 3:53. i remember where i was and what i was doing when i first heard it.
I love music especially music that has some f my fave musicians of all time from 2 different era's too
SO NICE!! LOVE ITTTTTTTT
trey makes me so happy
Skanks
so lucky to have found this!
what kind of flower is that?
Kimock definitely crushed this Shakedown!! You couldn't ask for a better post Jerry guitarist other than maybe John Kadlecik.
Kimock is decent but in this version it is ALLL about Trey
sick sick fucking SICK!!!!
KIMOCK+TREY= LEGENDARY!!
I agree with the guy below me...Trey has an awesome tone and he flows through this song very nicely.
the end is so fire
3:53 for the best chills in town!

Never a big Dead fan but this song is Great!
Trey was in the bay area recording with Claypool and Copeland in Marin. A good year indeed ... ///=}}}>>>>>>>>
grate song grate video
thats awesome that you wrote him, I did hear he is pretty much the only phisherman who loves the grateful d
Steve and Trey compliment each other's guitar playing well.
that trey solo is fucking fire
for me too brotha..what an expirience to hear trey playing entire shows of dead music and even getting to sing a little....so outa control
Shit, I forgot how stylish Trey was. Don't hate on this, this is one of his tributes to Jerry and he is very respectful in the presentation. I feel like he is trying to channel the love that's lost (or dispersed and spread, depending on your beliefs and motives).
Brilliant..!
This is one of a killer Phil and Friends set
Psychedelic at the highest level
Yeah I give Trey as much hell as anyone but this is great stuff. No complaints. How can I?
So Phriggin good !
@phattskis...... came out from CO for these shows on a whim. Had a ticket for the first night and somehow got miracled for the next two. They were hundreds of dollars on the street if you could find them and I got miracled onto the floor! Grew up right up the road from RR and have seen ALOT of shows. These rank top seven all time!! UNREAL!!
Kimock around 9:15 is fucking brilliant. sounds so good.
ahh Treys having soo much fun takin jerrys lead
I don't know how and don't wanna google at the moment how to but watch the happening begin between Anastasio and Kimock at 7:19. Release the damn. Thanks Matt knowing phan for showing me this video.
Man jeeey and trey would have been such a cool thing to see together.. those 2 on acoustics would have been one hell of a thing to witness.
8 mins and 42 seconds in he spun that right to the intro, veddy slick jam!
@SheikhTaqiyyameister its not about doing a jerry imitation its about playin the song with passion and skill
The recent good old days
no phuckin way. this jam is straight funk
Steve is peaking
There's a Charlie Miller soundboard of this whole show on archive.org - highly recommended
I would surely shit my pants if I heard them do this. Awesome vid
Trey rules
love it - only thing that kinda bugs me is that everytime they get to the bridge ("Maybe that's cuz it's midnight", etc) Trey plays Fmajor 7, Em, 3 times in a row when actually the way the song really goes,
its only twice and then steps down and subs the Dminor for the Fmaj 7.
Trey is amazing here! But no one does Jerry like Kimock :)
why would is the question... when you figure it out sing your own voice and let the influences come through..love Steve but clones are clones.. the real deals don't clone.. Miles.. Hendrix.. Jerry.. Trey. When Phish plays original it's special..real deal
for some reason this makes me a bit sad, yet it is an awesome performance. I just wish it was Jerry I saw
Wish I was there
@Brantly54 You're right. From this day forward I will defer all musical knowledge/opinions to you, oh great one.
So good
still so good
2:51 - 4:10 Trey kills it
nice work iamhydrogeno2
kimock's rapid noodling is great here! but hey let's face it trey is the master of this version, his energy,dynamics, he knows when to avoid ego driven fusion excursions, like jerry and when to cram in a zillion notes in a few simple bars! trey is a true master! i hope u phish haters can accept this! jerry is groovin, smilin, honored in his grave! thank u dead and thank u phish!
holy shit 3:00 treys solo.. is hot fiyaaaaaaaaa
3:53 hello world
YESSSSSSS. Can't fucking wait for July!!! Holy shit!!
the part you said, at 3:53, where it switches back to the chorus chords ..THAT is the reason why Trey is the PERFECT choice for GD 50th
Alex Bieger I couldnt agree more... sucks I didnt get a ticket. tried my hardest but I cant wait to watch the live stream
pretty solid.
Aw sheeit it's Jerry! We knew you'd be back some day!
Of course you would know what the Dead would be playing in this day and age if they were still around..!!!
Love this version but love the comments even more..its all about love and respect (except bisco)
tdb ftw no time to hate on them. They are nothing like phish, why even put em in the same sentence
A Pirrone you're very right amigo.
A Pirrone you're right. I saw Bisco twice and they were flat but I've since changed my mind about them. Now its all about love, but I still don't like White Bread Picnic
lol cheers man. thats why its your opinion. i love panic though.. it does it for me. i just love so much. a few I can do without
@@biegs28 welcome to the dark side. Nobody hits peaks like the biscuits.
I can't believe this band didn't play Eyes during this run
A+
Whoa.
They need to invite Kimock down to Santa Clara for the shows..
So Funky You Can SMELL IT!
@jeffhickman10 Actualy Slash is a good guitar player. I was never much of a G&R fan but I have recently come to appreciate his playing. Trey has some nice funky licks happening here. It's all good. lol

its not right to compare trey to Jerry.
plz tell me whos out there that converted this ? would love to have it
even the biggest phish/trey haters i know can dig this :)
@celeryface: you know it's a sick lick when Trey starts drooling
This comment aged incredibly well... Alpine Valley 7/14/19 for reference
He's probably drooling cause he's doped up methadone.
At least Trey isn't attempting to be a Jerry clone.
this is a good one bois
i think your right man
pretty fire
@havenmusic42
Fmajor and Dminor both contain the same notes so when Phil hits the D its matches up
God damn this smokes.
this has a real pop to it. nothing nostalgic about it. well played, and certainly one of the dead songs that lends itself to the Phish style. now Trey doing So Many Roads??? Maybe...
That's some underhanded good playing. Those riffs got so mean I think somebody ought to be charged with something.
love trey
@3:52, jesus
@trustinstinct Incorrect, but a nice idea!
ÄÄÄÄÄÄ!
WOO!
Well. Well. Well.
You can never tell.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Trey fave at 4:00
is there a part 2
