Song 270 (The Grateful Dead--"Uncle John’s Band")

Happy Memorial Day everyone! The main Holiday for honouring the dead, sure almost everyone is honouring the dead by playing in their boats or recreating someway. Instead today I will honour "The Dead" by picking one of their songs.
The most striking part of this song is the tight harmonies throughout. This Folk/Rock song is very unobtrusive and is quite mellow with beyond excellent musicianship.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
Here is a classic live performance circa '70 on YouTube.
