Since it costs a lot to win, and even more to lose
You and me bound to spend some time wond'rin' what to choose
Goes to show, you don't ever know
Watch each card you play and play it slow
Wait until that deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down, no, no
I been gamblin' hereabouts for ten good solid years
If I told you all that went down it would burn off both of your ears
Goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play and play it slow
Wait until that deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down, no, no
Since you poured the wine for me and tightened up my shoes
I hate to leave you sittin' there, composin' lonesome blues
Goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play and play it slow
Wait until that deal come round, don't you let that deal go down
Wait until that deal come round, don't you let that deal go down

This gives me spasms and perhaps seizures.
I'll need medication...again.

Um, no.
Sorry to counter, but pressing buttons and whatnot is not the same as learning all the scales and their modes and how to >physically< employ them. The touch on how you put pressure on a string and strum it to make it sound a certain way. How to play fast, etc.
Don't get me wrong, I understand there are technical >and creative< aspects to electronic music, but to say that it takes as much practice and dedication as playing a guitar at a masters level is a stretch.

Good song to workout to

I’ll bet that Jerry would have liked it. I mean, if anyone ever had an open mind, it was him.

LMAo... really Loving this version! 9>10
Had to come and check this out. Was thinking WTF? Yeppers that's Garcia's voice for sure... one of my favorite GD tunes but, not sure how I feel about this version. Gotta give the DJ some credit for picking a great tune and well... I think I am still trying to wrap my head around this one?
OK, growing on me... Jerry is belting it out! Love it! 7 to a 9

No.
If you're going to play around with Garcia's work, I think you need to try harder for a better fit.
Montovani does the Beatles was better than this.
MUZAK
MUZAK
Re-freshing! Next, Paul Simon.
Wow! This got me to stop what I was doing so I could give this my full attention. This remix shows what a skilled remix artist can do with a legacy piece of music. Breathe new life into it while still honoring the original artists and letting them shine. Well done.
I STILL HATE THIS!
Jerry's whirling dervishes in his grave! 
because you can doesn't mean you should.
If you’re not able to mąkę music yourself, don’t f#ck up someone elses genius song
Pressing the "Next" button now.
Pretty trippy, Jerry would approve.

Feel like that's a bit too much, I'd prefer to hear the original
Hey, why not? 6-7 for me.
What is happening right now?!?!
Love it when Bill BTFO’s the comments section live on air 👍
Wow, that question about “How bad could something get?” is answered with this cut. It is freakin’ awful. It adds an apostrophe to what’s wrong with mashups. Those “artists” need to write and perform their own music on real instruments instead of co-opting the work of real artists — sorry to disagree with you Bill. Derivative is derivative, which is to say it runs short of being creative. I’ll grant that it is re-creative, like summoning the dead.
Well this is kinda cool, I like it! I mean it isn't the greatest thing ever but it's neato.
Hmmmm.
This is not only dreadful, but also awful, sucky, shameful, ghastly, painful to the ears, and...befuddling.
And who wants to befuddled?

I only recently started to acquire a taste for the Dead. This song just about kills all that progress for me.
Let's Goooooo!
Full disclosure: I'm and old deadhead. Just reading the comments on this one. Honestly, it being so "controversial" is part of what makes me like it. Folks, keep your mind open to the changing times. Have fun and stay safe!
This controversial track truly requires some investigation by a Deadhead, namely me so I Googled around for it to find out the "who's who" and "what's what" behind it. Turns out the world traveling EDM DJ known as LP Giobbi, daughter of Deadheads has done a complete re-mix of Jerry's album "Garcia" in her style and regularly does "Dead House" performances. Yeah. I'm getting too old for this stuff. Read all about it:

and
https://djmag.com/cover-featur...
There's a link to the entire Garcia album remix on Spotify in there somewhere.
Now do I let RP off the hook for playing this? Welllllll...hmm, maybe. Okaaay.

Three phrases I thought I would never hear in the same sentence: Heavy rotation, Radio Paradise and Greatful Dead. Kinda some sort of Venn diagram with this song right in the middle. I dont hate it, just kinda tired of it...

Man, I thought the same when I first heard this. But wow, I find myself dancing and jammin' in my chair at work. I really appreciate the DJ's deadication on this tune.
The more and more I hear it, the more I love it. A big high-five to Giobbi, who also is a deadhead. 
And Jerry is turning . . .
WTF is this?

Ok, third time I've heard this on RP and conclude RP is baiting us with it just to get a rise out of us in the comments section.
Tracks from Deadicated, fine. Emory Joseph, fine. This? Nope.
The track has had its run. It's just a clever gimmick. Time to give it up.

Aw dang. Geez. This is tough on the ear holes.
still a no
I oddly like this
MORE!
Just gets better! 
BillG is right. I gave this a 4 the first time. Now a few listens later, it's already at 6.
This is good. Fun version of a great song. Jerry's vocals, cool mix, nice pace. It's very good.
This is awful... and as a Dead Head, I am ALL FOR keeping the music alive and innovative. I just do not like this attempt.
unbearable.

Yes. Every day now. It’s not very good. Was Bill Kreutzman’s drummers not good enough? I really don’t see the point of this. Just because something can be done, that’s not sufficient reason to do it!
Cool tune. Heard it a lot the last little while.... a lot!
Please.. Never. Sacrilege to Captain Trips.
For repentance, thou must listen to 5/8/77 Scarlet-->Fire in its entirety.
Then, say 3 "Hail Jerry's."

that was sacrilegious.
Other than adding a rather mindless and stultifying beat, what is the point? Once or twice was okay , but every day!
Ummm...I want to like it, but I can't
I like the concept a lot, but the execution is bad. WIsh it was less industrial and more trippy. It's annoying to me. But I guess it's good to experiment..
Gotta say -- I never really liked the GD before 'till I heard this. A solid 6!
+1 on the idea that just because something can be done, doesn't mean it should be.
Also +1 on the idea that RP is great to introduce us all to new things...once.
This has been pretty heavy in the rotation and enough!
The thing I find most irksome, tbh, is the credit to 'Jerry Garcia'. Sure, but it's not Jerry. It's somebody else.

stunningly unpleasant
I’m on LisaRCT’s page. Pls BillG - remove this poor song from ALL playlists
Stop it! Just stop.
Horrible adulteration.

RP did it again. Testing norms, pushing boundaries. Second time I've heard this. Catchy but...ummm...some sort of novelty only.
Um....NO!
If I had a time machine I'd go back in time to stop this being made before I killed Hitler.

Is there word more severe than dreadful?
Is RP just being a provocateur? There ain't no reason for that,
C'mon. Is Disco Duck next?

I don't particularly care for it but this is from a write-up about it on jerrygarcia.com:
Alongside the announcement of Garcia (50th Anniversary Edition), we are looking forward to inviting artists to collaborate with the existing material… in the form of Garcia (Remixed).
Garcia (Remixed) is a genre-defying dance potion crafted by LP Giobbi, a forward-thinking, boundary-breaking artist disrupting dance music today. A Deadhead herself, this isn’t her first drop of Garcia’s inspiration...

You weren't kidding about jamming this down people's throat Bill! Are there any other tracks off this album worth listening to? Again I dig this, keep at 7.
First Grateful Dead song I actually like!

Dig the vibe.
I don't like it, but I'm glad it's here.
Please stop this...! this is truly awful - please Mr. DJ; ruin a different song...
not one fo complain usually but this is truly unnecessary and repulsive to me

However, that bit about copy/paste & paint-by-numbers & 'not real art' -- well, that's the sort of thing that only someone totally ignorant about how electronic music is made would say. Learning how to do what she's doing here takes just as much dedication, practice, and creativity as learning to play the guitar.
Seemingly more proof that just because something can be done... it doesn't mean it should. Sure, it's tight. Sure, it's polished. And boy, yes, it's even got a lot of deep bass. But so what? My suggestion to remix djs is to write their own damn music and cut the copy-n-paste paint by numbers kindergarten crap and make real art.

I don't know, man. Not exactly the same, but I certainly enjoyed PBS's auto-tune remixes of Mr Rodgers, Bob Ross, and Julia Child. Plus, if Bill didn't play that remix then we wouldn't have this awesome segue to Franklin's Tower... Gotta crack some eggs to make an omelet.

That'll be a no from me, dawg.
Haha!
This is ear cancer.
As a lifelong Grateful Dead fan I beg you William - NEVER play this again.
I prefer the original.
I really like this. 7 from me
oh...this is dreadful
No. The mechanical beat just doesn't go with Garcia's natural, elastic tempo, and the mix is bad. This bites.
Hahaha! This is how it should be!
Blasphemy, I say.

I firmly believe that Jerry is rolling over in his grave hearing this.

A remix that is totally different than anything I've ever heard from Jerry Garcia or the Dead, and therefore I really appreciate that RP is introducing me to this.
On the other hand, I don't like it very much, so I'll rate it a 5.

Just like how piano players only push buttons and don't have to learn any music theory.
