The Dead - Friend of the Devil

From May 11, 2009: Bob Weir, Phil Lesh and Warren Haynes tackle a song from 1970's "American Beauty" album, most often remembered in the late Jerry Garcia's voice.

On the day Jerry's death was announced in 1995, a brokenhearted and world-weary Bob Weir took the stage at New Hampshire's Hampton Beach Casino.

He sang his heart out.

And when he couldn't sing any more, the crowd sang back to him.
"Not Fade Away"... For over an hour.

KFOG is an adult rock station in San Francisco, CA. with many videos of acoustic performances on YouTube, and more recently Vimeo.
