Pigpen got 'dem blues


Ain't nobody got the blues like Pigpen. From Smokestack Lightning, to Good Lovin' to Lovelight, you won't hear blues like this anywhere else. Get that harmonica blowin' and them freestyle blues lyrics take shape over the wonderful jams of the Dead, you can't even fathom.

3/8/73- turn it on, and keep it on

Thank you, Bob Dylan

I really love the music Bob Dylan has given me. It's not just sound and it's not just lyrics. Bob Dylan's music is representative of the soul of Bob Dylan. If you ever questioned whether music has life or not, just listen to some Dylan. It's a story wrapped in acoustic guitar and harmonica, accompanied occasionally by piano, bass, and drums. It's a story so fantastic and colorful you can just get lost in it, and be there. Thank you Bob Dylan.

Peace
John
