The favorite Dead cover of all time is Ripple, by Janes Addiction. Even Robert Hunter said he was blown away by it. It's an electro-grunge guitar version of ripple with the back beat of The Other One. Just nuts, but I love it! It's actually the song that took me from Dead fan to really
getting them.
But I didn't become a true Head, until @thegenius told me about Relisten a few years back. That opened all 2,000 shows to me most of which I've listed to while training for marathons. Mind BLOWN.
Relisten.net (and the phone app) is simply God's Gift to happiness and joy. If we all had that app on our phones we would be a much happier lot and not ripping on each other and others in perpetuity.
What is the ER equivalent?
Imagine every patient you saw
1) answered your questions correctly
2) did what you told them to do
3) always said "Thanks Doc I will take your advice"
4) left the ER if you told them to leave
5) happily accepted admission when suggested
6) never did drugs
7) had nice plump landmarks when you need to do a procedure
8) had very large veins for cannulation
9) never complained
10) admitted that they came to the ER for a stupid complaint and said "I promise I will never come to the ER again for this, or for any other stupid complaint ever"
11) paid their medical bills
12) lost weight
13) stopped smoking
14) got unhooked off of meth, cocaine, suboxone
15) didn't eat Popeyes every day
16) were super hot and asked to date you and willing to drop doctor-patient relationship
17) gave you a free membership to an elite golf club anywhere in the US after you saved them from a crippling stroke
18) admitted their chronic diseases ought not be seen in the ED, apologize, and then write a good review for you
19) paid you $200 cash as a copay
20) never asked for dilaudid, even if they have 46 broken bones and internally bleeding.
that's like 2/3 the joy that Relisten.net gives.
