Long time now gone but never forgotten. In my opinion he defined the raw early Grateful Dead and his blues and what he contributed to the band has become greatly under appreciated as time has elapsed. Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine! R.I.P. Pigpen.

Could that pic be the
Could that pic be the infamous show where Bill got dosed and played gong and cowbell all night?
GRATEFUL DEAD AT FILLMORE EAST, 2/11/69, "Late Show," includes this bit of on-stage patter as it opens:
(Producer Bill Graham has just been presented with the gift of a cowbell he played with the band during a show in San Francisco earlier in the year)
Graham, at microphone: "...it has always been my lifetime ambition to become the greatest cowbell player in the world..."
Jerry Garcia, at back of stage: "Give up."

Appreciate Pigpen for helping
Appreciate Pigpen for helping the Grateful Dead discover they could play R&B and the blues. For the love of God though, the man couldn't sing. That Hey Jude from 3-2-69 has always drove me crazy. It's horrible.

and llve performances transcend recordings, live is live, no disrespect or grandpa boasting intended; just saying
passion and connecting with the spirit or soul or heart often trump "skill or talent"
