Morning Dew
"Morning Dew" is song about the nuclear race was written by Canadian singer and songwriter Bonnie Dobson. The Grateful Dead introduced the song at a concert in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco on January 14, 1967. Smartly, the song stayed in their repertoire throughout their career. One of the charms of the Grateful Dead's interpretation of "Morning Dew" is the dynamics it encompasses. The way the mood of the song swifts back and forth from quiet to energetic is magical. But no more brilliant than the way they build up to the climatic peak to end the song.
