“If man chooses oblivion, he can go right on leaving his fate to his political leaders. If he chooses Utopia, he must initiate an enormous education program - immediately, if not sooner.”

  • Purely a single anecdote but not uncommon

    One of my college roommates discovered the Dead our first year. By Junior year he literally listened to nothing else and had hundreds & hundreds of bootlegs. "Let’s listen to They Love Each Other, a concert from the early 80s, maybe at the Filmore? Let’s see… there’s Jan 27, 1982… or Aug 14th, 1983… "

    And OMG on and on about what amazing musicians/songwriters they are. But I’m hearing what sounds TBH like semi-literate bluegrass. Hard to play, but not exactly complex composition or lyrics.

    “They’re so honest and pure and noncommercial!”

    Oh fucken gag me with a spoon they are multimillionaires many times over. And’ don’t tell me they never sold out, I’ll point at Touch of Grey

    OVER. RATED.
