how come i have never heard any other bands or people play guitar like grateful dead?
what style is it and how do they even make their guitars sound like that.
the guitar solo and at the end of this song is a good example of their unique sound.

Can anyone explain why Sirius has dedicated Grateful Dead stations? Is there a cult following I don't know about? Who are these guys

>tfw in a band with two people who think the greatful dead is the greatest band to every grace the history of this planet and they always try to incorporate elements of their music into ours, namely, hour long guitar solos that just sound like rambling, improvisation that sounds NOT GOOD, and a million song transitions

/mu/ doesn't listen to guitar music, they like indie bands who play bad on purpose to be hip.

there is a huge cult following .
but they are getting older now.
50+ years old people.
my dad went to alot of their concerts and i never understood why it was so good.
then i went to one of their concerts now when they changed their name to further and it was a really great time.

Jerry Garcia was very into gear. He was the very first person to buy the eBow at NAMM. The effect you hear in that song isn't at all unique, it's done using a wah pedal, and if you listened to more rock you'd realise it's incredibly common.

Don't blame The Dead because you're in a shitty band that can't play.
