Create A BlogHats off to David Nelson..... |
from: www.jambands.com
The New Riders of the Purple Sage’s David Nelson recently went down to Nashville to record a selection of Grateful Dead songs with noted mandolin player Jesse McReynolds (of Jim and Jesse fame) for his new album. The pair recorded a number of Dead-chestnuts, including “Fire on the Mountain,” “Franklin’s Tower,” “Ripple” and “The Wheel.” On Friday, Nelson also joined McReynolds and his band, The Virginia Boys, at The Grand Old Opry. Nelson offered a version of “Ripple,” becoming the first performer to play a Grateful Dead song at the Opry. McReynolds recent recordings with Nelson will be released later this year....
There is a road, no simple highway
Between the dawn and the dark of night
And if you go, no one may follow
That path is for your steps alone
Ripple in still water
When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
You who choose to lead must follow
But if you fall, you fall alone
If you should stand, then who's to guide you?
If I knew the way, I would take you home...
