just like old times
and that always made me feel uncomfortable.
for years i couldn't play this song.
it still feels wierd.
is barlow comparing himself to God???
I heard him and weir got in a fight over the creating of this song and a bottle.
bob wier and his lyricist john barlow stayed inside a hotel room for two or three days together writing this song. by the end of it they got to some degree of fighting and smashing furniture or otherwise yelling and throwing shit around.
and there was a bottle of Jim Beam I believe.
I think this story is in the book by Rock Scully titled, Living with the Dead.
The song is a masterpiece.
Jerry's solo had more feeling. This video is just as good tho.
