OMG, you've never heard of the Grateful Dead?!! They were a HUGE influence during the hippy generation. You're going to have a wonderful rabbit-hole to explore, my friend...
I just recently started listening to them and absolutely am loving their music. They must not have been that popular in South Africa but they were very popular here in America.
I'm glad you're catching up...it's always good to hear from you Lizelle!
They couldn't have been popular here as I was big into music in the 70s. Thank you for sharing. I'm always looking for new artists to follow!
You're welcome! You can find their music still being performed by tribute bands all over the world. I have a friend who's traveling to Vegas in a few weeks to see one of the bands that play the Dead's music in The Sphere.
Here's a video....
