This is a DEAD newsgroup -- I'm sure we all have various opinions about GT, but this isn't the forum to flame about them in. jeff m (known to flame violently in other newsgroups)

I seem to remember that in one of the Europe concerts
from 72, during Pig Pen's rap in a Good Lovin', he goes
through the verses of Who Do You Love. The band however
never breaks out of a Good Lovin' rhythm, or puts
in any "who Do You Love" style licks, so I wouldn't really
claim that the dead played the song for real!
I especially would not make statements of the form,
"the Dead don't do a very good version of WDYL"
based on this sort of event.
