Is it just me, or does this guy look like a young Bill Clinton?

Bump: Phil, olyve, Mick and anyone else who may care..here's Harry Reasoner's 1967 take on the 1960's and the Grateful Dead Haight Ashbury scene. I love his serious tone. And we have thought and discussed about what evolved from it. Who knew? Them dang hippies

LOL! Who knew indeed! Poor old Harry. Somebody needs to give that man a joint and tell him to relax. His fear and loathing was for naught. From there to here. Scholars, fans, artists, performers and members of the extended Grateful Dead family will gather on campus for the first major university conference on the enduring legacy of the Dead experience.
Unbroken Chain: The Grateful Dead in Music, Culture and Memory will bring together more than fifty presenters for twenty panel sessions ranging from music composition and improvisation to an examination of the band's business model, as well as a musical performances, gallery exhibits, and presentations. Unbroken Chain is being presented in conjunction with a semester-long graduate history seminar entitled American Beauty: Music, Culture and Society, 1945-95; and an undergraduate course entitled How Does the Song Go: The Grateful Dead as a Window into American Culture. I guess he'd be turning over in his grave if he knew.  Thank you, Ken. That was awesome.

Olive my dear---Robert Towne, in his classic film Chinatown, had Noah Cross (John Huston) uttering the following phrase to Mr. Gittes (Mr. Gits)--Jack Nicholson-- as they sat down to an afternoon lunch of whole fish—heads included. Of course I'm respectable. I'm old. Politicians, ugly buildings, and whores all get respectable if they last long enough. Much to Mr Reasoner's grave turning chagrin, that also applies to the Grateful Dead. The Atlantic Monthly recently had an interesting article on The Dead's business model. Again—who knew?

I couldn't get your U Tube link to open. I'll try another path.

Does this work better? (the other one still works for me but there a bunch of references to this event) Unbroken Chain: The Grateful Dead in Music, Culture and Memory, UMass at AmherstScholars, fans, artists, performers and members of the extended Grateful Dead family will gather on campus for the first major university conference on the enduring legacy of the Dead experience.

...and a gentler time. Ballads were "in" around 1961.
