Love that too.
I was driving to a gig when I heard on the radio that Jerry Garcia had passed away. I slipped “Ripple” and “Uncle John’s Band” into the program, which was in a NURSING HOME!
Several frail, elderly folks came up to me after the concert to tell me how much the LOVED those two songs, and wanted to know where they came from. (They were sandwiched into a program of “The Great American Songbook” which featured well-known tunes by Gershwin, Cole Porter, and Irving Berlin)
So, they stood up to some STIFF competition!
