What is your favorite GD album and your favorite song on that album? mine would have to be "In the Dark"

Bonjonner My favorite album is From the Mars Hotel, and my favorite track off that album would have to be the live version of "Scarlet Begonias". It was 1974 and the Dead was in their prime era.

Bonjonner the first time I heard JT was one Christmas when I was just a young chap. I think it was "Whenever I see Your Smiling Face". I must've been like 6 years old, and it was just heaven from the start. Such a sweet baritone. And he's from Boston too. Go SOX!
